Пишем овај пост да исправим ранији пост који сам написао о дуплим крстовима у професионалном рвању. Првобитно сам мислио да се дупли крстови завршавају након што је Станислаус Зибсзко дупло укрстио Голд Дуст Трио. Zbyszko, након што је пристао да изгуби од Муна, победио га у ономе што се претворило у легитимно такмичење за Светско првенство у рвању у тешкој категорији. И “Давитељ” Луис, који је испустио
Фебруара 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
Октобра 25, 1915, Aleksander “Alex” Aberg won the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Wladek Zbyszko, the brother of Aberg’s former foe. У 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
Написао сам овај пост због разговора у којем сам означен на Твитеру о томе 1911 реванш између Френка Гоча и Георга Хакеншмита за Светско првенство у рвању у тешкој категорији. Јим Цорнетте, који је поред тога што је један од најбољих менаџера у професионалном рвању, такође и познати историчар професионалног рвања, причао о дуплом кросу у другом Готцх-Хацк мечу
Када “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 “Пијук” 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 записник. Беелл је освојио
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. По 1904 или 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. <Спан ббок_к = "289" ббок_и = "553" ббок_в = "56" ббок_х = "20" фсизе = "14" фвеигхт = "3" црвено = "255" зелено = "255" плави = "255" алфа = ", 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
Октобра 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) шампионата, али је остао ван пажње до
Новембра 7, 1908, Упознао се Цхарлес Олсон “Americus” Гас Шонлајн за Светско првенство у рвању у полутешкој категорији. Утакмица се показала узбудљивом колико су посматрачи претпостављали да ће бити, али се завршила контроверзом. Олсон је био 6’01” али само тежио 170 фунти. Рођен Макс Фласкамп у Крефелду, Северна Рајна-Вестфалија у 1879, узео је име Чарлс или Чарли Олсон
