Verona, Missouri hija belt żgħira fil-Lbiċ ta 'Missouri. Qatt ma jaqbeż 900 residenti fl-istorja tagħha, only 438 jew hekk in-nies sejħu Verona dar ġewwa 1926. Madankollu, nhar it-Tnejn saret karta tal-lotta professjonali fil-belt, Marzu 22, 1926.

On Sunday, Diċembru 17, 1906, Kansas City, Missouri once more proved itself to be a hotbed for professional wrestling as 8,000 fans crammed Convention Hall to watch the rematch between Frank Gotch and Fred Beell.

Wayne “Big” Munn’s a meteoric rise in professional wrestling. Debuting in 1924, Munn “won” the World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship from Ed “Strangler” Lewis in early 1925. His fall was just as quick. Billi 1926, Munn was retired.

Fred Beell kien qawwi, wrestler professjonali b'talent fil-bidu tas-Seklu 20. Beell ta kompetizzjonijiet iebsa lill-aqwa lottaturi tal-ġurnata iżda n-nuqqas ta' daqs tiegħu spiss ixekkel il-kapaċità tiegħu ma' lottaturi ta' klassi dinjija.

Din l-għira professjonali wasslet għal double-cross famuż 1925. Minn dan iż-żmien 'il quddiem, it-titlu mondjali kien ikkontestat hekk kif Joe Stecher kellu verżjoni waħda, filwaqt li Ed “Strangler” Lewis kellu l-verżjoni l-oħra. Minħabba r-riżentiment reali
Is-silta li ġejja hija mill-ktieb il-ġdid tiegħi Double Crossing the Gold Dust Trio, li se toħroġ dan is-sajf. During the summer (of 1921), l-aħwa Zbyszko irċevew kelma li ommhom kienet marida serjament. Tagħmel preparazzjoni malajr, għarrfu lil Curley u lill-promoturi l-oħra li jkunu se jitilqu malli jkunu jistgħu jirranġaw passaġġ fuq xi
