Episodio 30 – Shikat contro. O'Mahony

In questo episodio, discutiamo del doppio gioco di Dick Shikat di Danno O'Mahony a marzo 1936. Nello studio si unisce anche il mio nipote più giovane, Connor, che esce con suo padre, Caleb, che è tornato al podcast questa settimana.

I will be starting the new research project in the beginning of September 2023. Right now, I am getting ahead on articles for the website and adding to my last St. Louis history book.

Contenuto principale

In 1934, Boston promoter Paul Bowser actively searched for an Irish wrestling star to draw in the many Irish fans living around the Boston area. Bowser brought a muscular shot putter named Danno O’Mahony to become his top star.

After six months of training, O’Mahony could work a credible match but O’Mahony was a sitting duck for a legitimate wrestler. In marzo 2, 1936, O’Mahony met that credible wrestler in Dick Shikat, who shot on O’Mahony and took his world title.

Shikat killed the career of one of professional wrestling’s biggest box office stars and exposed the worked nature of professional wrestling.

Revisione

We reviewed Gunther vs. Drew McIntyre from Summerslam. This match would hold up in any era.
