검토
Jim Londos vs. 딕 시카트에게서 1930 – Fourteen minutes survive of a match that almost went two hours.
Big Time Wrestling from February 1976 – We reviewed the Sheik vs. Mark Lewin in a loser leave town match for the U.S. Title. Lewin was the U.S. Champion at the time. The match starts around the twenty-six minute mark.
I recently read Blood and Fire: The Unbelievable Real-Life Story of Wrestling’s Original Sheik by Brian R. Solomon (제휴 링크). It rekindled my interest in the Sheik, who I had only seen in one match on a VHS tape from 1990. It was the Sheik vs. Lewin match from 1976.
