at 8:10 jack terry puts a full nelson on bill melby. interestingly, bodybuilder eric pederson beat bill melby with the full nelson on october 9, 1951 in spokane, washington, not once but twice... the first was in the first fall at 19:58, and again in the second fall at only 1:19.
Melby was a bodybuilder who could wrestle as well! Nice clips of some of these great guys from the 50's!
These are great wrestlers: Bill Melby, Don Arnold, and haven't seen this Max Brenner before but he is great too. Thanks for posting.
+Freddy FourOneSix You're very welcome, I'm glad you enjoy the matches.
Wow! Need some footage of real matches featuring Max Brenner.
A lot more realistic back then.

old bull wasn't stronger here, but faster and softened his man up good ...
