While I hate UFC merging with WWE, trebuie să-l salutați pe Vince McMahon și-a vândut compania pentru mai mult decât merită. Vince a reușit să rămână și la conducerea companiei. Vince McMahon won the promotional wars of the 1980s and 1990s because he was a better businessman than his competitors.

Conținutul principal

Before researching my latest book on Sorakichi Matsuda, I did not know professional wrestlers wrestled matches and falls according to Sumo rules. Matsuda did not know Greco-Roman wrestling or catch-as-catch-can wrestling, when he arrived in the United States in 1884.

Matsuda trained as a Sumo wrestler in his native Japan before coming to the United States to wrestle American professional wrestlers. Matsuda used Sumo rules to even his chances in mixed style matches with catch wrestlers.

Matsuda and his opponents wrestled Sumo rules falls and one actual Sumo match between 1884 și 1885.
