ಭಾನುವಾರ, ಡಿಸೆಂಬರ್ ತಿಂಗಳು 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.

Earl Caddock had a relatively short but storied professional wrestling career in the late 1910s and early 1920s.
