Iowa's own Frank Gotch passed away today in 1917.
Frank transcended wrestling. He was a huge sports hero and icon of his era. Hollywood even wanted Gotch. Frank was a simple farm boy from Humboldt who ended up back there to spend his final years. ![]() ![]() |

Yeah, I'd heard where one half of The Vaudevillians, Simon Gotch (NXT) got his last name based on Frank. I have no idea how profightdb could leave him off their list. Perhaps I'll e-mail them and see how or if they respond.
