Main Content

На працягу многіх гадоў, I could not find any account of Bernarr MacFadden’s exploits as a professional wrestler in St. Луіс. While research the beginnings of what would become Tom Packs’ Вуліца. Louis wrestling promotion in 1921 і 1922, I stumbled across an article that listed B.A. McFadden’s match with Max Luttbeg as one of the best matches held in St. Луіс.

У 1893 і 1894, MacFadden was Barney McFadden, skilled lightweight Greco-Roman professional wrestler. Only 25-years-old, McFadden already contemplated retirement to enter the publishing business.

У студзені 1894, McFadden wrestled Luttbeg in his final professional wrestling match. We discuss the controversial match in this episode.

Recommendation

I recommend the remaining video of the 1928 тытульны матч between Ed “Душыцель” Lewis and NFL star Gus Sonnenberg. Lewis trained Sonnenberg for the ring.
