Evan Lewis Maims Wrestler

As the wrestler jumped off the mat, he grabbed the referee by the lapel with his good arm. “Why didn’t you stop it?” As Referee Siler tried to pull free, Duncan Ross’ seconds grabbed him and pulled him away. The men told Ross, “He can’t stop it. You have to submit.”

Ross screamed, “I’m out of here.” As Ross walked back to the dressing room, the muscular man in black trunks, still standing in the ring, smirked. Siler raised Evan “ラングラー” ルイス’ hand. Ross’ forfeit gave him the match in 3 straight falls.

エヴァン “ラングラー” Lewis was one of the most vicious human beings to ever put on a pair of wrestling trunks. Skilled at twisting limbs and applying the guillotine choke, ルイスはよく対戦相手に怪我をさせた, 特に彼らが何らかの形で彼をイライラさせた場合. <スパンbbox_x = "14" fweight = "3"赤= "255"緑= "255"青= "255"アルファ= "=" 244 "bbox_y =" 627 "bbox_w =" 56 "bbox_h =" 20 "FSIZE, Lewis could maim someone just because he was having a bad day.

Lewis signed to meet Duncan Ross, a professional wrestler skilled in the Cumberland style of wrestling. ルイス’ skills at Greco-Roman wrestling and catch-as-catch-can wrestling were far superior to Ross’ これらの形式のレスリングのスキル. 毎年秋になると、 3 秋の試合は各スタイルのレスリングで争われる.

When the match commenced in Chicago, Illinois on November 20, 1893, Lewis proved his superiority in Greco-Roman wrestling by throwing Ross after a fierce back and forth battle. Lewis had agreed to win all three falls to take 80 percent of the $2,000 purse.

Since Ross would have an advantage in the Cumberland style, Lewis decided to end the match during the catch-as-catch-can fall. Lewis charged at Ross, grabbed hold of him and secured a hammerlock. Lewis began raising the wrist towards Ross’ head causing great pressure on his rotor cuff.

Siler watched Lewis slowly twist Ross over and onto his shoulders for the second fall. While Ross’ face showed the tremendous pressure being exerted on his rotor cuff, he refused to submit. サイラーはルイスがホールドを使って転倒を確実にし、ロスに重傷を負わせるのを見ていた’ shoulder.

ロスは飛び起きたが、数秒以内にその上手な腕で主審を攻撃するのを制止しなければならなかった. Rather than go out for the third fall, Ross screamed at the referee and left the ring. Lewis didn’t seem phased by injuring his opponent as he pocketed $1,800 for the victory.

Lewis hurt wrestlers for many reasons. Money and anger were the most frequent cause of his maiming. 時々, Lewis just felt like it. Unless you could make a big payday for stepping into the ring with him, it was best to avoid the original Strangler from Wisconsin.
