DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show: Monster Classical & the Geological Hippodrome

My 1000 Hours subseries on the DragonKing Karl Show takes a look back at the pioneer era of pro wrestling with information pulled from my latest book, DragonKingKarl’s Pioneer Era Pro Wrestling Omnibus: The Bible of the Pioneer Era of Wrestling.

On hour 68 of our series, I continue my look at the post-1870 Detroit International Tournament era. New York is growing as a hub for pro wrestling, and promoter and former champion Harry Hill is putting together pro wrestling’s first syndicate/trust/promotion featuring Homer Lane and the John McMahon family.

Also, the future biggest arena in sports takes its first form.
