Jim Londos was the biggest box office star in professional wrestling history. Londos started out as a carnival strongman. While working the carnivals, some of the wrestlers taught Londos catch wrestling.

Londos knew how to both work and shoot although Londos was never on the level of Ed “<ກວ້າງ bbox_x = "949​" bbox_y = "1897​" bbox_w bbox_h = "52​" = "19​" fsize = "13​" fweight = "3​" ສີ​ແດງ = "255​" ສີ​ຂຽວ = "255​" ສີ​ຟ້າ = "255​" ບໍ່​ມີ​ເພດ​; = "” Lewis, Joe Stecher, and John “The Nebraska Tigerman” Pesek as a shooter and hooker, skilled submission wrestler.

Londos emerged as star in the 1920s, but achieved superstardom in the 1930s. Londos attracted 30,000+ fans to baseball stadiums for the first time since the second Gotch-Hackeschmidt match in 1911.

Primo Carnera came to the United States in 1930 to campaign for the World Heavyweight Boxing Championship. Carnera stood six feet six inches tall and weighed about 260 ປອນ. The massive Carnera won 89 fights knocking out 72 of the opponents.

After retiring from boxing and trying his hand at acting, Jules Strongbow trained Carnera for professional wrestling in 1945. Strongbow used Carnera extensively in Los Angeles as well as sending him as an attraction to other territories.

By the time of this match, Carnera had been wrestling for 5 ປີ.
