Ken Timbs (January 27, 1951 – August 1, 2004) was an American professional wrestler who, with tag team partner Eric Embry, competed as one half of the Fabulous Blondes in several regional territories including Southwest Championship Wrestling and International World Class Championship Wrestling during the early 1980s.

Ken Timbs began his professional wrestling career in Ole Anderson's Georgia Championship Wrestling promotion. He later moved to Southwest Championship Wrestling, where he teamed as the Fabulous Blondes with Eric Embry when he feuded with the Rock 'n' Roll Express. In 1983, the duo won the SCW World Tag Team Championship from Buddy Moreno and Scott Casey. Approximately two months later, the titles were held up after a match with the Rock 'n' Roll Express due to interference by Leslie Luv who moved to the East Coast. The Blondes won the rematch in early December. In April 1984, Al Perez and Manny Fernandez won the Tag Titles, but the Blondes were awarded the belts after Perez and Fernandez missed a title defense. He was later replaced in the team by Dan Greer.

In November 1985, Timbs was awarded the NWA United States Junior Heavyweight Championship after breaking his opponent's leg with a submission hold. Along with his new partner Porkchop Cash, Timbs won the NWA Central States Tag Team Championship in April 1987. The title was vacated when Timbs left the area.
