DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show: The horse lifting incident

This week’s edition of my 1000 Hours subseries focusing on the pioneer era of pro wrestling (taken from my latest book DragonKingKarl’s Pioneer Era Pro Wrestling Omnibus) finds us in 1878, and things continue to take an entertaining turn.

The collar and elbow wrestlers have a new champion, and he isn’t exactly setting the world on fire. The Greco-Roman wrestlers are basically being run out of town, but their fortunes are about to change.

Then, along comes the bears…and horses. Well, you’ll just have to listen. Pro wrestling was wild in the pioneer era.
