На June 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.

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
Пиша тази публикация, за да коригирам предишна публикация, която написах за двойни кръстове в професионалната борба. Първоначално мислех, че двойните кръстосвания са приключили, след като Станислав Зибшко удвои триото Gold Dust. Zbyszko, след като се съгласи да загуби от Munn, го победи в това, което се превърна в легитимно състезание за Световното първенство по борба в тежка категория. <Педя bbox_x = "925" bbox_y = "1799" bbox_w = "16" bbox_h = "19" fsize = "13" fweight = "3" червено = "255" зелен = "255" синьо = "255" алфа = " “<Педя bbox_x = "949" bbox_y = "1799" bbox_w = "52" bbox_h = "19" fsize = "13" fweight = "3" червено = "255" зелен = "255" синьо = "255" алфа = "” Фундаментален болт, който изпусна
Станислав Збишко обиколи Съединените щати през 1910 в подготовка за мач за титлата със световния шампион по борба в тежка категория Франк Гоч по-късно през годината. Обиколката му го доведе до Св. Луис на май 29, 1910. Zbyszko трябваше да се срещне с високо ценения граплер в полутежка категория Charley Olson. Олсън беше опитен борец, който е тренирал със Св. Луис борец Джордж
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

It is doubtful Wladek Zbyszko could make a claim to his brother’s championship. Promoter Sam Rachmann probably created this
I wrote this post due to a conversation I was tagged in on Twitter about the 1911 rematch between Frank Gotch and Georg Hackenschmidt for the World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Jim Cornette, who besides being one of the best managers in professional wrestling is also a noted pro wrestling historian, talked about the double cross in the second Gotch-Hack match
Когато “The Russian Lion” George Hackenschmidt toured America in 1905, he left the country unimpressed by the state of American wrestling. The current World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion, известен като “Хамалски” to much of the wrestling public, toured several cities in an attempt to arrange a match with American Heavyweight Wrestling Champion Tom Jenkins. Hackenschmidt won the world title in Greco-Roman
Fred Beell developed a reputation in the early 20th Century as a powerful and dangerous wrestler. His reputation was not built by his 1903 campaign. Beell suffered as many high-profile defeats as victories. Beell started well in April 1903, when he defeated St. Paul AAU Wrestling Champion James McAuley. McAuley won the first fall in 22 протокол. Beell won the
Frank Gotch holds the title of America’s greatest legitimate professional wrestler. Gotch competed in mostly legitimate contests with a few pre-arranged or “Работил” matches thrown in the mix. От 1904 или 1905, no one could really beat Gotch unless he allowed it. In the early years of his career, Gotch was not so dominant. He dropped matches to his mentor,
