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” wrestling promotion and beat Munn for the
Ho deciso di iniziare 2020 utilizzando due esempi tratti dal wrestling professionistico per discutere del motivo per cui cambieresti un resoconto storico che hai scritto in passato. Nello scrivere la storia, sei limitato dalle fonti disponibili sull'argomento. Fonti primarie come diari, i documenti ufficiali e le autobiografie sono molto preziosi. Other sources like newspapers are good as well but
On the same day Joe Stecher wrestled Stanislaus Zbyszko for the recognized version of the World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship in St. Louis, Ed “Strangler” Lewis challenged “Big” 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
