エピソード 80 – ビジネスを公開します

このエピソードで, I discuss how the Divided Championship Era began to expose the worked nature of professional wrestling.

Update

BBC recently made a decision about the BBC Sounds app that is truly irritating.

I will be giving a St. Louis history presentation at Eugene Field House on April 5, 2025.

The Divided Championship Era book should be available in June 2025.

バイ 1927, pressure mounted on both Joe Stecher’s and Ed “ラングラー” Lewis’s camps to end the divided championship.

Newspaper reports about Jack Curley, ビリーサンドウ, and the Stecher Brothers controlling wrestling in certain states and territories appeared in summer 1927.

Fans also realized that Lewis and Stecher defended their respective titles in the same cities against the same opponents.

最終的に, Martin Slattery, the former manager of John “ネブラスカタイガーマン” Pesek gave the Illinois Athletic Commission damning information about the worked nature of professional wrestling.

The publicity did not negatively affect the box office but both camps started to worry that it might the longer the Divided Championship Era lasted.

おすすめ

I started reading Louisville’s Greatest Show: The Story of the Allen Athletic Club by John Cosper. It is an easy and informative read.
