Main Content

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

Only 25-years-old, McFadden already contemplated retirement to enter the publishing business.

ในเดือนมกราคม 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 title match between Ed “เค้นคอ” Lewis and NFL star Gus Sonnenberg. Lewis trained Sonnenberg for the ring.
