I have a tremendous show for you today on our 1000 Hours series, which is all about the pioneer era of pro wrestling (pre-1900).
For some time, we have been focusing on the era of Col. James H. McLaughlin, John McMahon and his family, and Andre Christol. Moving forward into the 1880s we get into the era of William Muldoon and his archrival (and sometimes business partner) Clarence Whistler. The two men had a very complicated relationship and toured the country wrestling each other. Then, for some reason, it got real, and the two split up. Muldoon sets up in San Francisco for a long time and becomes a major star there too.
On this, hour 56 of 1000 Hours, let’s dive deeper into William Muldoon.
