St. Louis Wrestler Surprises Gotch

oscar-wassem

Frank Gotch holds the title of America’s greatest legitimate professional wrestler. Gotch competed in mostly legitimate contests with a few pre-arranged or “bekerja” matches thrown in the mix. Oleh 1904 atau 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,
