When the Assassins ended, He wrestled as "<b>The Assassin</b>" and "<b>The Flame</b>" both while wearing a mask.<sup id="cite_ref-TagAssassins_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-TagAssassins-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Hamilton teamed up with Tom Renesto in late 1961 to form the masked <a href="/wiki/Heel_(professional_wrestling)" title="Heel (professional wrestling)">heel</a> (bad guy) team known as "The Assassins" and, for over a decade, he and Renesto wrestled all over the world with great success.
