DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show: John Pesek & the history of wrestling at MSG
By F4W Staff | @WONF4W | Aug 30, 2023 5:44 pmIn this 14th installment of my history of pro wrestling at Madison Square Garden series, I look at one of the toughest and scariest shooters ever in wrestling history who you seldom hear about but should: John Pesek.
I discuss how a pioneer era wrestler shockingly and bafflingly helped change the rules of wrestling in a way that had a serious negative impact on the industry in that era.
Plus, there's a new promoter in town as the war between Tex Rickard and Jack Curley ends in a whimper.
There's lots of history in this episode that will affect wrestling for years to come.
