No microphone. Just yelling. So somewhere from 1915 to 1935 they added ropes. Really doing a deep dive here. Also it stopped being Greco Roman & more fighting.
Thanks for posting the Terry McGinnis clip. I'm his grandaughter but never got to meet him, and my father (his son) is no longer alive either. It means a lot to my brother and me to have that incredible clip. Can't thank you enough! By the way, we know from geneology records that he is descended from England's King Edward IV, Isabella and Ferdinand of Spain, The Holy Roman Emperor of 932, Swedish Kings.... etc. The warrior genes are evident, what an athlete!
This was great to watch. I love hearing old school announcers like the gentleman calling this match. I wish the ufc would get some professionals to call their fights. Thank you for the upload!
This is a wild and violent match. They're not going into spot for spot for spot... their flowing in a free state where you can take the match at whatever feels right. This is all a work and they're telling their storylines to get you to see the next match. Pro wrestling at its finest. 👌
Cowboy Karl Davis later became Crippler Carl Davis. He moonlighted as a stunt man. Look for him at the beginning of the 1955 cult classic, “The Creature With the Atom Brain.”
@@roa.b8891 Because it is a different era Wrestling now is more on entertainment and explosive. Because if you use this kind of pro wrestling today then better just watch UFC or boxing lmao. Also wrestler today is more risky that it was in 40's that is why most pro wrestler today needs to be in best shape to perform those unrealistic moves
Not exactly I know everyone won't wear a tie to wwe but u can say somone is wearing a tie to wwe to look fresh because probably his girlfriend or wife likes wwe
Thanks for posting this amazing gem. I'm glad I found it. Knox Manning is great on commentary. Did anybody else notice the world's fastest clapper in the audience at $:24 & 4:58???
Was the ring announcer not using a microphone bc he really *was* loud enough for the crowd to hear him without one, or had the dynamic ring mikes not been invented yet?
Two absolute legends in the ring. Bronco Lubich was supposed to officiate this important match but he got hold of some bad shellfish that day at lunch and was unable to answer the bell so to speak.
@@KT-cz7rm the good wrestling is the golden era from 1980-1995 With the greatest wrestlers like ric flair , hulk hogan , ultimate warrior , shawn micheals , jake the snake, andre the giant etc. Also when wrestling got millions, millions of views.
both well matched: Davis better technical wrestler, but no match for those hard fist from the Cowboy: slowly softened up his opponent: best man won here
This was scripted. Wrestling still had some shoots in the 30s but this one was obviously scripted. It looked way more brutal than today but that is because the sport and kayfabe was insanely protected back in the day.
