メインコンテンツ

長年, I could not find any account of Bernarr MacFadden’s exploits as a professional wrestler in St. ルイ. While research the beginnings of what would become Tom Packs’ ST. Louis wrestling promotion in 1921 と 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. ルイ.

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

1月に 1894, McFadden wrestled Luttbeg in his final professional wrestling match. We discuss the controversial match in this episode.

おすすめ

I recommend the remaining video of the 1928 タイトルマッチ between Ed “ラングラー” Lewis and NFL star Gus Sonnenberg. Lewis trained Sonnenberg for the ring.
