삽화 1: Gotch vs. 마구 자르기
It Was Almost Real: 프로 레슬링 역사 팟캐스트, 삽화 1 – Gotch vs. 마구 자르기
Episode Preview
이 에피소드에서, 저는 Frank Gotch와 George Hackenschmidt의 두 경기에 관한 사실과 신화에 대해 이야기하겠습니다.. During May 2016 지난 2년간 남자들의 진로를 조사한 결과, I released Gotch vs. Hackenschmidt: The Matches That Built and Destroyed Legitimate American Professional Wrestling. I took an in-depth look at both men’s careers leading into the matches and discovered things I heard about the matches in the past did not quite measure up to the facts.
Introduction
I wanted to provide listeners with a brief introduction since you may not be familiar with me unless you have read some of my books such as Gotch vs. Hackenschmidt, Double-Crossing the Gold Dust Trio 또는 Evan “The Strangler” Lewis. I have authored eighteen non-fiction books at the time of this recording. At the end of the show, I’ll tell you how I became a wrestling fan and why I named this podcast It Was Almost Real.
주요 내용 – I look at the fact and fiction around the two matches between Frank Gotch and George Hackenschmidt in 1908 과 1911. A lot of the misinformation is from 가을 녀석들: The Barnums of Bounce (제휴 링크) 마커스 그리핀.
The book is the first insider look at professional wrestling in the 1930s. It is an excellent resource but verify the information. The Buffalo promotional office fired Griffin, their PR man in the 1930s. He wrote the book in 1938 to take revenge on his former employers.
To end the show, I discuss how my oldest sister Vicky encouraged my professional wrestling fandom as a kid and why I named the podcast It Was Almost Real.
Since the show is new, I would appreciate a rating to help other listeners discover the show. I will release an episode next Monday discussing the biggest box office star of the 1930s and possibly all-time. We will also discuss the terms performer, shooter, hooker and hooks. Thanks for listening.
