Loss Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 History of Pro Wrestling #71 (04:04:49) Matches from May-July 1971 BARON VON RASCHKE & HANS SCHMIDT vs HAYSTACKS CALHOUN & MOOSE CHOLAK (05/15/1971; AWA House Chicago, IL; 00:09:54) Most of the AWA matches during this time are clipped, but a decent amount is shown, with commentary from Bob Luce. They provide a good glimpse of wrestlers we wouldn’t see much or anything from otherwise. BATMAN & PACO RAMIREZ vs INCA VIRACOCHA & DON GONZALEZ (05/17/1971; French Catch; 00:28:32) Segunda Caida review of the match. ANTONIO INOKI vs THE DESTROYER (05/19/1971; JWA World League; 00:29:41) SHOHEI BABA vs ABDULLAH THE BUTCHER (05/19/1971; JWA World League; 00:18:04) Much like 1969, the finals of the World League ended up as a four-way tie: this time between Inoki, Destroyer, Baba and Abdullah. Once again, they teased the possibility of Inoki vs Baba for drama, but they did not deliver on the match. Baba wins the league in a good brawl! 3* DER HENKER & KAMIKAZE vs JACKY CORN & GILBERT LEDUC (06/14/1971; French Catch; 00:35:59) Segunda Caida review of the match.
