It's the match of the century, folks, and they're hanging from the rafters here in Comiskey park! The fans purchased their entire seat, but with drama like this they'll only need the edge. It's 'Nature Boy' Buddy Rogers vs NWA World Heavyweight Champion Pat O'Connor in a two-out-of-three falls contest.
From all the way back in 1961, you'll be shocked at how modern this bout feels - even if the high spots are a botched dropkick and a wicked twisting arm bar.
Running in all the way from across the pond to help your boys break down this mat classic is creator of Botchamania and all-around good wrestle guy Maffew Gregg! (@Maffewgregg)
