This Day In Wrestling History


In Sioux City, IA, a near riot breaks out following a two hour match between Wladek Zbyszko and Joe Stecher. The fans begin yelling "fake, fake" and policemen are needed to escort the men into the dressing room. Zbyszko is named the winner the next day, but all bets are called off.
