Masked Marvel to the Rescue - Ken Zimmerman Jr. - Bog

Bag om Masked Marvel to the Rescue

The Gimmick That Saved the 1915 International Wrestling Tournament When Frank Gotch retired as World Heavyweight Wrestling Champion in 1913, it left a void that many promoters tried to fill with their hand-picked successors. One of the more interesting attempts was Samuel Rachmann staging the 1915 New York International Wrestling Tournament. Rachmann's Spring Tournament was a big success but attendance fell off badly in the Fall Tournament. Rachmann was forced to employ a gimmick to save his tournament. The gimmick was a huge success but was it worth it, if it hurt his contender and exposed professional wrestling at the same time. The First Known Masked Wrestler in the United States
