주요 내용
I realized that we have not talked much about William Muldoon, the topic of my first pro wrestling book.
Besides being the World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion from 1880 에 1889, Muldoon was America’s first celebrity trainer.
Only one opponent ever troubled Muldoon in Muldoon’s specialty, Greco-Roman wrestling. Clarence Whistler gave Muldoon fits in their series of matches.
Whistler usually held Muldoon to a draw including a 7-hour stalemate that drove all the fans off with the exception of about a dozen determined souls.
Muldoon only won one match from Whistler, when Muldoon accidentally injured Whistler on a slam. Muldoon accepted another draw but Whistler demanded the referee declare Muldoon the winner based on Whistler’s withdrawal.
비극, Whistler died in Australia during 1885 에 26 살. No one else troubled Muldoon during the remainder of his title reign.
