Another shot of Jack Pfefer and one of his Cossack giants, Alexander Garkowienko, from Shreveport, LA July 28, 1927. Garkowienko returned to the Pfefer fold in late 1926 and quickly stole Pfefer's interest away from the aged Poddubny.
Hard to tell. The other dozen titles might have something to say about this.

Jack Pfefer poses with his star, Ivan Poddubny, ahead of his world title match against Joe Stecher, Los Angeles, June 14, 1926. Declared "unscissorable" by Pfefer thanks to his thick torso, Poddubny was eventually pinned by Stecher after more than 2 hours of wrestling.
And then have the new champ face a mid-carder in a non-title match in the second segment, then have the world title of another company be defended in the main event, followed by a show-closing top angle that doesn’t involve Swerve in any way. Once again, all mind-boggling.

It’s 2024 and this is how you’re promoting your show? You’re so desperate your exploiting women to get viewers? Okay.

I’m to disagree. Trick maybe better some day, but Swerve has gotten over in a place that doesn’t get people over.

1987 Interview of the Year imo
A history of world title changes in St. Louis: Swerve Strickland’s AEW World title win tonight represented the 27th world heavyweight title change in the historic wrestling city. The very first was Joe Stecher, who became the first 3-time world champion there in 1925. (1)

I've also been wanting to mention John Ellul's great "Flowers for Adrian" book, the Adrian Adonis biography. If you haven't picked this book up yet, do so. John did an amazing job piecing this important story together and, as fans, we are all better for it! @EllulCoolJ
Why can’t you?
Highly recommend this piece

@ThomasJJStarr @davescherer He won’t because nothing else he writes generates clicks like Punk. Meltzer knows that so he will keep milking it even though there’s no more milk left. It’s just another desperate attempt at engagement from a flailing old writer/critic who should have retired.

I know I’m decades late to the party, but Rear Window is a bloody masterpiece. So layered, so much outside-inside mirroring. JS is perfect in it, Grace Kelly is an angel in it, but the real MVP for me is Thelma Ritter. “Nobody invented a polite word for a killin’ yet”.
@BrandonThurston Drastic price-gouging raises revenue, who knew??
@WrestlePerks Dude has needed an editor for decades.
And then have the new champ face a mid-carder in a non-title match in the second segment, then have the world title of another company be defended in the main event, followed by a show-closing top angle that doesn’t involve Swerve in any way. Once again, all mind-boggling.
