Does anyone have, at least, any summarized info pertaining to "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff's lone year playing in the WFL ('75) before deciding to become a pro wrestler? I know that he was a RB at Tampa U (Matuszak his teammate) then drafted by Saints but failed physical for them (and Chiefs).

Cut by the Express in camp in 1975. Also, in camp and cut by the Bears in 1974.
According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, he simply left the team on July 19.
