A Walk Through History...
Since I've been quarintined for almost two months in NYC with the lack of good live wrestling to watch I've spend a lot of hours delving into the past. Far past my own years into the deep and rich history of Pro Rasslin. I am creating this thread as a place to share Classic wrestling videos, matches, events or youtube accounts worth watching.

I'll start off with a true classic.



2/23/50 Chicago International Ampitheatre

(promoter: Fred Kohler) … (referees: Jack Dempsey, Tony Hadjich)
(7,638 fans) … (gate: $30,265.01)
(Benefit: Chicago Heart Association) (received
10 percent of the net - $2,328)
Note: The show expected to draw a gate of $40,000

(info from Legacyofwrestling.com)

Here we have the two f'n carved in stone legends. The quality is beautiful and professionally remastered. If you have time I highly encourage you to enjoy this match from start to finish. Give it a chance, invest in the holds. This is a style that is so much more active in many ways than what we have today. And I encourage you to actually find a rest hold amongst this match where the psycology is to break your opponent down for a pin with a headlock or to grind out a sub with a hammerlock. If this match got stars I'd say it would be at least 4.
