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
Charles Green, wrestler Ingliż tas-sengħa catch-as-catch-can, ivvjaġġa lejn l-Istati Uniti fl-aħħar tas-snin tmenin biex tiġġieled l-aqwa wrestlers Amerikani. Green kiseb l-opportunità tiegħu f'Lulju 21, 1889, meta ġġieled liċ-Champion Amerikan tal-Heavyweight Catch-as-Catch-Can Evan Lewis. Biex nippreparaw għal din il-partita, Green ħa attakk ta' handicap mal-wrestler tal-vjaġġaturi Bert Scheller fl-aħħar ta' Ġunju. Scheller twieled
Fuq Jannar 30, 1930, Gus Sonnenberg defended his AWA World Title, based in the Boston promotion of Paul Bowser, in Boston Arena against former world champion Joe Stecher. Two minutes of film survived from the hour-long match. Gus Sonnenberg traded on his celebrity as a professional football player to become a wrestling star. Sonnenberg helped the Providence Steam Roller win
Kemm jekk kien double-cross jew attentat biex jitwaqqaf kompetizzjoni leġittima, It-tentattiv ta’ Paul Bowser li jassigura partita bejn Joe Stecher u Joe Malcewicz kważi rriżulta f’rewwixta f’Marzu 11, 1926. L-avvenimenti tas-sena ta’ qabel fil-fatt wasslu għal din id-diżgrazzja. Mill-aħħar ta 1922, it-Trio tat-Trab tad-Deheb tal-Ed “Strangler” Lewis, tiegħu
Tom Jenkins kellu d-distinzjoni li kien l-uniku wrestler li għeleb lil Frank Gotch diversi drabi. Jenkins u Gotch innegozjaw il-Kampjonat Amerikan tal-Lotta Heavyweight bejn 1902 u 1906. Fil-ħin ta’ din il-partita, Jenkins reġa’ kien iċ-champion. Fred Beell had been campaigning for a match with Jenkins for months. Beell finally convinced Jenkins to meet him but
F’għeluq it-33 sena ta’ Joe Acton, Marzu 8, 1885, huwa ġġieled lil pajjiżu Tom Cannon f'logħba ta' 2 minn 3 waqgħat fi Sportsman Park fi New Orleans, Louisiana. Acton u Cannon kellhom storja twila flimkien. Iż-żewġt irġiel twieldu fl-Ingilterra kmieni 1952. Cannon twieled xahar wara minn Acton f'April 19, 1852. Iż-żewġt irġiel bdew jiġġieldu fil-
Joseph “Toots” Mondt wrestled professionally from the early 1910s through the 1930s but he made his real mark as a booker, booking agent and promoter. While Ed “Strangler” Lewis considered Mondt his equal in a legitimate wrestling match, Mondt has a genius for creating angles and finishes in worked wrestling exhibitions. Mondt would join Lewis and his manager Billy Sandow
Meta tiddiskuti renju tat-titlu ta 'Stanislaus Zbyszko minn 1921 li 1922, ir-raġuni ewlenija li ngħatat biex ħa t-titlu mingħandu kienet li r-renju tat-titlu tiegħu kien falliment fil-box office. In-numri jivvalidaw dan it-twemmin? Qabel ir-rebħ tal-kampjonat, Zbyszko wrestled ex champion Joe Stecher fil-71 Regiment Armory quddiem 7,000 fans. Fil 1915, l-
When William Muldoon retired as the World Heavyweight Greco-Roman Wrestling Champion in 1889, there was no ready successor to the championship. Evan “Strangler” Lewis was the best wrestler in the United States not named William Muldoon but his specialty was catch-as-catch-can wrestling. The best American Greco-Roman wrestler, Clarence Whistler, had died in Australia during 1885. Muldoon’s handpicked successor was German-born
Joe Stecher started out 1915, a fateful year for his career, with a victory over Adolph Ernst. Ernst wrestled under the name Otto Carpenter for this match but was known to professional wrestling fans as Ad Santel. Santel had a deserved reputation for being a vicious “Hooker”, a wrestler skilled in submission holds. Stecher was a 22-year-old Nebraskan, who made
