Posts about catch-as-catch-can or catch wrestling matches, the dominant style of wrestling in the United States after 1890.
Nan 1899, Martin “Kiltivatè” Burns t ap fè tranzisyon nan wòl wrèstle a tan pasyèl ak antrenè aplentan. Youn nan elèv ki pi popilè li yo ta dwe Frank Gotch, ki Burns bat yon semèn apre match sa a. Burns te 38 ane-laj e li te pèdi chanpyona lit Ameriken Heavyweight li de zan anvan. Burns melanje tou de wòl yo nan yon swa Desanm trè okipe nan
Ki moun ki pi gwo wrèstle pwofesyonèl lejitim pou lite nan Etazini? How do you determine it when wrestlers “te travay” or cooperated with each other in matches since the sports emergence in the 1860s? . I examined the records and stories around the American, British, Polish, and Turkish wrestlers, who wrestled in the United States between 1870 ak 1915
William Hayes Shaw, ki te lite kòm Pat O'Shocker nan pi fò nan karyè lit li, jwenn tèt li nan dokiman Pwen Enpòtan an nan 1933. O'Shocker pa t' ap chèche pou sa a sòt de t'ap nonmen non menm si. Jounal yo te pote yon istwa sou fason pwomotè lit yo te eseye sèvi ak O'Shocker nan yon doub-kwa ki te planifye.. Joseph “Toots” Mondt te rezerve wrèstle soti nan New York epi li te aliyen ak
Nan 1933, about 10 ane nan karyè lit li, Jim Browning ta genyen tit mondyal la. Starting his career in Kansas and his home state of Missouri, Browning ta dwe kite teren sa yo abitye, si li te gen entansyon rive nan pwent pi wo a nan lit pwofesyonèl. Paske chanpyon mondyal yo te oblije fè yon vwayaj nasyonal, e souvan entènasyonalman, the world title was
I’ve written in the past that Fall Guys: The Barnums of Bounce by Marcus Griffin is a problematic source. While Griffin has insider knowledge due to his time in the Buffalo promotional office in the 1930s, he wrote the book for the purpose of revenge against the promoters who fired him. The book contains factual information mixed in with interesting
In the early 1920s, Christos Theofilou began wrestling as Jim Londos after several years as the gimmicky “Wrestling Plasterer”. Londos probably didn’t realize that the name change would be the first step into him becoming the biggest box office attraction in 1930s professional wrestling. The second step was his emergence as a main event wrestler in St. Louis. Born in
Sou Jiye 4, 1922, Alan Eustace te resevwa piki li nan World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion Ed “Strangler” Lewis. Eustace, chanpyon nan Kansas, won a qualifying match with “Kiltivatè” Bailey nan mwa mas 1922 pou kalifye pou match ak Lewis. 31-Eustace te gen laj menm jan ak “Strangler” Lewis men Lewis te gen plis eksperyans. Debu nan 14 ane ki gen laj,
Depi aparisyon li kòm yon espò spektatè nan dezyèm mwatye nan 19yèm syèk la, pwomotè ak littè yo te anba yon nwaj nan sispèk ke yo te travay alimèt yo. Pandan ke lit pwofesyonèl ta evantyèlman konpoze prèske sèlman nan ekspozisyon sèn, anpil, si se pa pi fò, nan match yo te konkou lejitim anvan 1915. Pwomotè ak luteur te ale nan gwo
In early 1915, Sam Rachmann te ankouraje New York International Wrestling Tournoi ak entansyon pou ranplase Frank Gotch chanpyon Lut Pwa Lourd ki te pran retrèt.. Rachmann te kwè pèsonn pa t ka bat Aleksander “Alex” Aberg, Siksesè Rachmann nan Gotch, nan lit Greko-Women. Defi Rachmann a te trape-tankou-trape-ka se te style lit dominan nan Amerik la. Pou jwenn alantou defi sa a, Rachmann rekrite entènasyonal
Nan 1922, fiti chanpyon Mondyal Lut pwa lou Jim Browning te kòmanse karyè li nan Kansas. Browning te deplase soti nan vil li a nan Verona, Missouri in 1921 pou antrene pou yon karyè lit pwofesyonèl. Tom Lwa, Wichita a, Pwomotè Kansas, te sipèvize fòmasyon Browning la. By May 1923, Browning te deja nan evènman prensipal la nan pi piti montre. Sou yon Augusta, Kat Kansas, Browning lite
