Viestit 1900-luvun painijista, paini-ottelut, ja painielokuvia.
Kirjoitan tätä viestiä korjatakseni aiemman postauksen, jonka kirjoitin kaksoisristeistä ammattipainissa. Alunperin luulin, että kaksoisristit päättyivät Stanislaus Zybszkon kaksoisristityksen jälkeen Gold Dust Trion yli. Zbyszko, suostuttuaan häviämään Munnille, voitti hänet, mikä muuttui lailliseksi kilpailuksi raskaansarjan painin maailmanmestaruudesta. Ed “Strangler” Lewis, joka pudotti
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
Lokakuun 25, 1915, Aleksander “Alex” Aberg won the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Wladek Zbyszko, the brother of Aberg’s former foe. Sisään 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
Kirjoitin tämän viestin keskustelun takia, johon minut oli merkitty Twitteriin 1911 uusintaottelu Frank Gotchin ja Georg Hackenschmidtin välillä raskaansarjan painin maailmanmestaruudesta. Jim Cornette, joka sen lisäksi, että hän on yksi ammattipainin parhaista managereista, on myös tunnettu paini-historioitsija, puhui kaksoisristeyksestä toisessa Gotch-Hack-ottelussa
When “Venäjän Lion” George Hackenschmidt toured America in 1905, he left the country unimpressed by the state of American wrestling. The current World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion, tunnetaan “Hakata” 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 voitti
Frank Gotch holds the title of America’s greatest legitimate professional wrestler. Gotch competed in mostly legitimate contests with a few pre-arranged or “toimi” matches thrown in the mix. Mennessä 1904 tai 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,
Jim Londos rose through the ranks of professional wrestling to become the biggest box office star of not only the 1930s but of all-time. Kuitenkin, if Londos had not come to St. Louis in the early 1920s, the story could have been quite different. Londos learned catch-as-catch-can wrestling while Londos performed as a strong man in the carnival circuit during
Lokakuun 20, 1906, Fred Beell proved dynamite comes in small packages. Beell, light heavyweight wrestling champion, defeated former American heavyweight champion Dan McLeod. Beell parlayed an active 1906 into defeats of former American Heavyweight Champion Dan McLeod and current American Heavyweight Champion Frank Gotch. Beell won the American Middleweight (Light Heavyweight) Mestaruus, mutta pysyi poissa valokeilasta asti
Marraskuun 7, 1908, Charles Olson met “Americus” Gus Schonlein'in World Light Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Ottelu osoittautui yhtä jännittävä tarkkailijoina epäillään olisi, mutta se päättyi kiistaa. Olson oli 6’01” mutta punnitaan vain 170 kiloa. Syntynyt Max Flaskamp Krefeld, Nordrhein-Westfalenin 1879, hän otti nimen Charles tai Charley Olson
