St. Louis #32 Page #2
Most
historians will tell you that when you talk about or read about wrestling in St.
Louis, they will say that wrestling in St. Louis revolved around 3 people. Tom
Packs, Lou Thesz, and Sam Muchnick. If you think about it Tom Packs is
responsible for both Lou Thesz, and Sam Muchnick. Not only does he create the
list but he is part of the list. Not bad in any timeframe. I wonder if you had
to come up with 3 names that wrestling revolves around now, who would you
choose? Or could you even compare Tom Packs, Lou Thesz, and Sam Muchnick, to
anyone around now?
NEXT MONTH:
Who was Lou Thesz?
