I also share my thoughts on WWE Elimination Chamber, since I was the only one to watch it so far.

We give an update on Dan, who is currently on the injured reserve. We have been forced to adapt by recording on Skype for the next few weeks.

Contenido Principal

In 1906, Frank Gotch’s management team hyped an upcoming match with either Fred Beell or Tom Jenkins.

To hype the match, Emil Klank or Martin “Agricultor” Burns planted a story about Gotch’s 1903 match with Native American wrestler Chief Two Feathers in newspapers accross the United States

According to the story in the newspapers, the undefeated Chief Two Feathers almost defeated Gotch. After Gotch came back to defeat Chief Two Feathers in two straight falls, the despondent Chief Two Feathers retired from professional wrestling. The true story of the match was a little different.

Revisar

We examine a match between King Kong Brody and Chrusher Jerry Blackwell in 1986. The run-ins tickle “Trey”, who was not a wrestling fan and not familiar with the run-ins of the 1980s.
