Pada April 3, 1908, Gulat Amerika Champion Frank Gotch bertemu World Wrestling Champion George Hackenschmidt untuk Judul Dunia di Dexter Taman Pavilion di Chicago, Illinois. Hackenschmidt tak terkalahkan sebagai seorang profesional, tetapi telah Juara Dunia sekitar 7 tahun. Gotch was a year older but considered an up and comer. Fans and reporters covering the sport considered Gotch
Pada hari Selasa, Maret 22, 1910, Dr. Benjamin Roller met Stanislaus Zbyszko in a legitimate wrestling match. Professional wrestling would transition from legitimate contest to staged exhibition between 1910 dan 1920. Dr. Benjamin Roller graduated from the University of Pennsylvania by playing professional football. Roller accepted an academic appointment in physiology where he assisted in the writing of a textbook. Dr.
Wladek Zbyszko’s legacy is often overshadowed by his brother Stanislaus Zbyszko. Stanislaus, yang 12 years older, posed the last real threat to Frank Gotch’s World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Wladek Zbyszko was a skilled wrestler in his own right. Sayangnya, he didn’t arrive in the United States until 1914, when most wrestling matches were prearranged. Wladek had proved his bona
Saya sering menemukan tantangan terbesar dalam meneliti gulat profesional awal adalah memisahkan fakta dari fiksi. Bahkan ketika para pegulat bertanding dalam pertandingan yang sah, mereka sering kali membesar-besarkan hasil, membangun cerita rakyat palsu seputar kemenangan mereka dan mengarang cerita khayalan untuk menjelaskan kekalahan mereka. Gulat profesional muncul dari karnaval dan mempertahankan naluri promosi seni ini. St.
Pada Januari 10, 1910, recently arrived Polish wrestler Stanislaus Zbyszko took on Charlie “The Kid” Cutler in a best two-out-of-three falls match. Cutler had been a boxer in a troupe run by John L.

Pada tanggal 16, 1917, Frank Alvin Gotch lost a three week battle with uremic poisoning. Doctors attempted to keep his kidneys going through an operation in Chicago but it provided only temporary relief. Gotch intended to travel to Hot Springs, Arkansas to try and restore his health. The operation ended this hope. Gotch spent the last couple weeks only able
Rarely does one fundamentally alter their profession but Stanislaus Zbyszko did just that on April 15, 1925 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Zbyszko defeated Wayne Munn in one of the last shoot (not staged) professional wrestling matches in the United States. It was a shoot or legitimate match because Zbyszko double crossed the “Goldust Trio” promosi gulat dan kalahkan Munn untuk itu
Saya memutuskan untuk memulai 2020 dengan menggunakan dua contoh dari gulat profesional untuk mendiskusikan mengapa Anda mengubah catatan sejarah yang Anda tulis di masa lalu. Dalam menulis sejarah, Anda dibatasi oleh sumber yang tersedia tentang pokok bahasan tersebut. Sumber primer seperti buku harian, catatan resmi dan otobiografi sangat berharga. Sumber lain seperti surat kabar juga bagus
Pada hari yang sama Joe Stecher bergulat dengan Stanislaus Zbyszko untuk versi Kejuaraan Gulat Kelas Berat Dunia yang diakui di St.. Louis, Dan “Pencekik” Lewis challenged “Besar” Wayne Munn for his disputed Michigan-Illinois World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Lewis dropped the title to Munn in February 1925. In April 1925, Zbyszko defeated Munn in a famous double-cross. The match between Lewis and
Pada April 7, 1914, 22-year-old Wladek Zbyszko met 22-year-old Ed “Pencekik” Lewis would meet in the first of many matches between the two men. They would cooperate in a number of worked or “prearranged” korek api. Lewis in fact dropped his American Heavyweight Wrestling Championship to Wladek Zbyszko in 1917. In the early 1920s, Lewis would drop his World Heavyweight Wrestling
