Main Content

I 1924, Jim Browning was an up-and-coming 21-year-old wrestler wrestling the 43-year-old former challenge match participant Taro Miyake.

Promoters played up Miyake’s participation in previous challenge matches by booking the match as a mixed styles match.

During the second fall, a rough exchange infuriated Browning, who quit cooperating in the worked match.

Browning and Miyake got back on track until the finish of the second fall.

Was this match a work or a shoot?
