I’m writing this post to correct an earlier post I wrote about double crosses in professional wrestling. I originally thought double crosses ended after Stanislaus Zybszko double crossed the Gold Dust Trio. Zbyszko, after agreeing to lose to Munn, defeated him in what turned into a legitimate contest for the World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. 和 “扼殺” 劉易斯, who dropped the
On February 26. 1914, Stanislaus Zbyszko beat Alex Aberg for the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship in Boston, 馬薩諸塞州. 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
十月 25, 1915, 亞歷山大 “亞歷克斯” Aberg won the World Greco-Roman Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Wladek Zbyszko, the brother of Aberg’s former foe. 在 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
我寫這篇文章是因為我在 Twitter 上被標記為關於 1911 弗蘭克·戈奇 (Frank Gotch) 與喬治·哈肯施密特 (Georg Hackenschmidt) 爭奪世界重量級摔跤錦標賽重賽. 吉姆·科內特, 除了是職業摔角界最好的管理者之一之外，他也是著名的職業摔角歷史學家, 談到第二場 Gotch-Hack 比賽中的雙叉
何時 “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, 被稱為 “哈克” 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 分鐘. 貝爾贏了
Frank Gotch holds the title of America’s greatest legitimate professional wrestler. Gotch competed in mostly legitimate contests with a few pre-arranged or “工作” matches thrown in the mix. 通過 1904 或 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,
吉姆朗多斯 (Jim Londos) 在職業摔角界的地位不斷提升，不僅成為 20 世紀 30 年代乃至有史以來票房最高的明星. 然而, 如果隆多斯沒有來到聖. 20世紀20年代初期的路易斯, 故事可能會完全不同. 隆多斯在嘉年華巡迴賽中以大力士的身份表演時，學會了接球式摔跤。
十月 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) 冠軍，但一直淡出人們的視線，直到
十一月 7, 1908, 查爾斯·奧爾森遇見 “Americus” 格斯·舍恩萊因 (Gus Schonlein) 參加世界輕重量級摔角錦標賽. 事實證明，這場比賽正如觀察家所猜測的那樣令人興奮，但最終卻引發了爭議. 奧爾森排名第6’01” 但僅重 170 英鎊. 馬克斯·弗拉斯坎普 (Max Flaskamp) 出生於克雷菲爾德, 北萊茵-威斯特法倫州 1879, 他的名字是查爾斯或查理奧爾森
