I have not watched Wrestling in years. I did see a wrestler Waldo Von Erick remember him stabbed by a fan at the old Garden. People thought it was real back them me too.
Anyone remember the signature holds of the old time wrestlers.
Bruno Samartino, Antonio Rocca, calypso kid, Capt Lou, haystack Calhoun, bobo brazil, iron shiek, chief Jay strongbow, the kangaroo brothers.
Then their we're holds like the claw hold can't remember the wrestler that used it. figure 4 Leg vine, bear hug, chin lock etc
I will try to answer those questions. Bruno signature hold was the back breaker.
Antonio Rocca was a lot of flying drop kicks one after another.
Calypso kid he was the first guy to balance himself off the top rope and throw his body at an opponent.
Captain lou was always my favorite. His hold was sticking his fingers in his opponents eyes.
Haystacks was hittin the opponent with that big horse shoe that he carried a round his neck then give the opponent the big splash. Just falling on the opponent with his apx 400 or 600 hundred pounds I forget which probably 600 lbs.
You guys have to remember the rest
