Júna 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.
Marca 22, 1919, Ed “Strangler” 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
Píšem tento príspevok, aby som opravil predchádzajúci príspevok, ktorý som napísal o dvojitých krížoch v profesionálnom zápase. Pôvodne som si myslel, že dvojkríže skončili po tom, čo Stanislaus Zybszko dvakrát prekrížil Gold Dust Trio. Zbyszko, po súhlase s prehrou s Munnom, porazil ho v tom, čo sa zmenilo na legitímnu súťaž o majstrovstvá sveta v ťažkej váhe. Ed “Strangler” Lewis, kto upustil
Stanislaus Zbyszko absolvoval turné po Spojených štátoch 1910 v rámci prípravy na titulový zápas s majstrom sveta v zápasení v ťažkej váhe Frankom Gotchom neskôr v tomto roku. Jeho turné ho priviedlo do St. Louis v máji 29, 1910. Zbyszko sa mal stretnúť s uznávaným grapplerom v poloťažkej váhe Charleym Olsonom. Olson bol zručný zápasník, ktorý trénoval so sv. Louis zápasník 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
Októbra 25, 1915, Aleksander “Alex” Aberg won the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Wladek Zbyszko, the brother of Aberg’s former foe. V 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
Tento príspevok som napísal kvôli konverzácii, v ktorej som bol označený na Twitteri 1911 odvetný zápas medzi Frankom Gotchom a Georgom Hackenschmidtom o majstrovstvá sveta v zápasení v ťažkej váhe. Jim Cornette, ktorý je okrem toho, že je jedným z najlepších manažérov v profesionálnom wrestlingu, aj známym profesionálnym wrestlingovým historikom, hovoril o dvojkríži v druhom zápase Gotch-Hack
When “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, known as “Kopnutie” 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 minutes. 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 “worked” matches thrown in the mix. Podľa 1904 alebo 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,
