Cora Livingston in her wrestling prime (Public Domain)
Paul Bowser developed into a solid middleweight professional wrestler before marrying Cora Livingston, the first recognized Women’s Wrestling World Champion. Bowser managed Livingston’s career until she retired. Bowser then took over as the Boston wrestling promoter in 1922. Bowser ran his promotion until his death in 1960.
Livingston also worked with Bowser in their promotion until her death in 1957. Livingston mentored Mildred Burke. Burke brought women’s wrestling into the mainstream.
Dan also shares what he feels are possible omissions from the HOF.
After the HOF discussion, I give Dan an update on my newest book project.
We recommend a wrestling match from Chicago during 1961. Sweet Daddy Siki and “Sailor” Art Thomas wrestle the Sicilians in a tag team match.
