After he wrestled a woman on NBC's Saturday Night Live in 1979, Andy then publicly offered to shave his head, pay $1,000 to, and marry any woman who could beat him.

The self-proclaimed "World's Inter-Gender Wrestling Champion" traveled around the country holding wrestling matches in any venue he could find: comedy clubs, mud-wrestling joints, college campuses, sports arenas, even on airplanes and in his own home ... Wherever there was an angry and willing female. He retired undefeated.
