Sam Sheppard's Wrestling Boots

Origin
These leather boots were worn by Samuel Sheppard, who was a American osteopathic physician and, toward the end of his life, a professional wrestler. He was convicted in 1954 of the brutal murder of his pregnant wife, Marilyn Reese Sheppard, at their Bay Village, Ohio home. He spent almost a decade in prison, mostly at the Ohio Penitentiary, before a retrial was ordered, where he was acquitted in 1966. To his death, he maintained his innocence in the murder.

Sheppard's third wife, Colleen Strickland Sheppard, was the daughter of professional wrestler George Strickland, who introduced Sheppard to wrestling and trained him to wrestle. Sheppard made his debut in August 1969 at the age of 45 as "Killer" Sam Sheppard, wrestling Wild Bill Scholl in his first match.

Sheppard wrestled over 40 matches before his death in April 1970, including a number of tag team bouts with Strickland as his partner. Sheppard's infamy made him a strong draw.

Effects
When worn, the boots instills the wearer with a vast anatomical knowledge of the human body, allowing them to see weaknesses in the foe's body.

If active however, the wearer will not stop what so ever to defeat their foes, even going so far as to kill them.
