在这一集, 我将谈论 1910 年代和 1920 年代初期促销系统的发展.

更新

Update on the American Heavyweight Wrestling Championship book project due out before Christmas this year. 这个项目比我想象的要大得多. Wrestlers worked more of the matches than I initially suspected as well. The good news is I believe a solid timeline for the belt will be established with this book.

主要内容

Why I Wrote the Post?

First Phase (1860s to 1890s) – Backers (wrestling fans) usually served as promoters.

Second Phase (1885 to 1910s) – Managers acted as quasi-promoters partnering with athletic clubs, buildings and sometimes backers to secure venues for matches.

Third Phase (1910s and 1920s) – Development of local promoters in the major and smaller cities who formed weak alliances to control professional wrestling. The promoters were not weak but the alliances were because the promoters often turned on each other.
