Penembak di Dunia Kerja Tersedia

John "The Nebraska Tigerman" Pesek mula bergusti secara profesional 1915, tetapi Pesek lebih sesuai dengan 1885 gelanggang gusti profesional. Oleh 1915, ahli gusti menjalankan perlawanan mereka.

Ahli gusti ringan mahir Clarence Ecklund melatih Pesek dalam gusti tangkap-tangkap-can. Pesek berkembang menjadi seorang pelacur yang mahir atau ahli gusti penyerahan. Pesek tidak pernah suka bertanding dan bergelut dalam kerjaya awalnya.

Akhirnya, Pesek did work with his opponents but still preferred to wrestle legitimate contests. Dalam 1921, Jack Curley engaged Pesek to end a promotional war by booking Pesek in a legitimate contest.

Two year later, Pesek wrestled a second legitimate contest but instead of ending a promotional war, Pesek started a promotional war. Later Pesek double-crossed the current world champion after working with the champion in two earlier matches.

After the double-cross, promoters still booked Pesek into three world championship reigns. Despite worries about who would take the title off Pesek, if he did not want to lose it, promoters still put the title on Pesek.

Pesek eventually became a millionaire but not through his professional wrestling career. Pesek bred and raced greyhound racing dogs. Pada 1970-an, eighty percent of the greyhound racing dogs in the United States descended from two Pesek’s Australian greyhounds Andy and Just Andrew.
