Ernest Roeber was an accomplished Greco-Roman wrestler. William Muldoon, the World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion from 1880 te 1889, wanted Roeber to take over from him as World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion. Egter, the world title would continue to be disputed until George Hackenschmidt won several Greco-Roman Tournaments in Europe during 1901. Yusuf Ismail, the Terrible Turk, was considered one of the
Yukio Tani arrived in England at the turn of the 20th Century. Tani spread ju-jitsu by taking part in challenge matches against professional wrestlers.

One of Tani’s best English students used the stage
Op Junie 2, 1915, the International Wrestling Tournament in New York City entered its second week of competition. Some of the tournaments big names were wrestling on this night. Alex Aberg, George Lurich and Wladek Zbyszko would all compete. It was Zbyszko who made the biggest impression. The first match involved two lesser talents, Pierre Le Colosse and Wilhelm Berner.
Op Maart 22, 1919, En “Worger” Lewis met Wladek Zbyszko for the vacant World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. In a surprise victory, Zbyszko defeated Lewis to claim the title. Unfortunately for Wladek Zbyszko, he would only have a cup of coffee with the belt. A month or two later, Zbyszko lost the title to Joe Stetcher. This match was most likely
Ek skryf hierdie plasing om 'n vroeëre plasing wat ek geskryf het oor dubbelkruisings in professionele stoei reg te stel. Ek het oorspronklik gedink dubbelkruise het geëindig nadat Stanislaus Zybszko die Gold Dust Trio dubbelkruis. Zbyszko, nadat hy ingestem het om teen Munn te verloor, het hom verslaan in wat 'n wettige kompetisie vir die Wêreld-swaargewigstoeikampioenskap geword het. En “Worger” Lewis, wat die laat val het
Stanislaus Zbyszko het in die Verenigde State getoer 1910 ter voorbereiding vir 'n titelwedstryd met die Wêreld-swaargewigstoeikampioen Frank Gotch later in die jaar. Sy toer het hom na St. Louis op Mei 29, 1910. Zbyszko was geskeduleer om hoogaangeskrewe ligte swaargewig worsteler Charley Olson te ontmoet. Olson was 'n bekwame stoeier, wat saam met St. Louis-stoeier George
On February 26. 1914, Stanislaus Zbyszko beat Alex Aberg for the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship in Boston, Massachusetts. Zbyszko came to the United States in 1909 to campaign for Frank Gotch’s World Catch-as-Catch Can Championship. Wrestling insiders considered Gotch’s title the World Championship. Zbyszko could not beat Gotch in 1910. Before they had a rematch, Frank Gotch retired in
Op Mei 11, 1931, Fritz Lang se klassieke film M (Koste skakel) in Berlyn vrygestel, Duitsland. Behalwe dat op die meeste lyste vir die top 100 films van alle tye, Fritz Lang believed his finest film was M (1931). Die film is die verhaal van 'n reeks van kindermoorde wat plaasvind in Berlyn. The police are determined to catch the killer
Op Oktober 25, 1915, Aleksander “Alex” Aberg won the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Wladek Zbyszko, the brother of Aberg’s former foe. In 1914, Stanislaus Zbyszko defeated Aberg for the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Stanislaus Zbyszko returned to Europe. It is doubtful Wladek Zbyszko could make a claim to his brother’s championship. Promoter Sam Rachmann probably created this
Martin “Boer” Burns was 'n professionele catch-as-vang kan stoeier asook stoei en fisiese kulturele afrigter. Ten spyte van groot sukses as professionele stoeier, selfs die Amerikaanse swaargewigkampioenskap gewen het, he is more famous as a wrestling trainer. Martin “Boer” Burns gebore Februarie 15, 1861 in Cedar County, Iowa. Both then and now, wrestling is in an Iowan’s blood.
