Wladek Zbyszko’s legacy is often overshadowed by his brother Stanislaus Zbyszko. Stanislaus, kes oli 12 years older, posed the last real threat to Frank Gotch’s World Heavyweight Wrestling Championship. Wladek Zbyszko was a skilled wrestler in his own right.

Esmaspäeval, Veebruar 7, 1887, Evan “Strangler” Lewis and “Little Demon” Joe Acton kohtus Chicagos Battery D juures, Illinois. See oleks esimene mitmest meestevahelisest näituselahingust.

Evan “Strangler” Lewis oli hirmutav konkurendi. Although he was not a large man at five feet, nine inches tall. Lewis weighed 170 naela, Lewis’ meisterlikkust esildisi teda võrdne või parem kõige maadlejate tema ajastu. Jack Carkeek oli kohutav maadleja kuid üks mängu Lewis peaaegu pani teda pensionile.
