Wrestling Promoters were Renowned for being 'Opportunistic' and having a Sometimes Pernicious
Sense of Humour!
Going Back to The Late 1930's a Ring 'Persona' of Topical and Contemporary Nature Suddenly
Appeared in Our Rings!
One HANS HITLER In Fact!-Contrary to Popular Belief HITLER was NOT a Very Common Surname
in GERMANY and AUSTRIA at This Time!-So the Use of This Name in Particular would have been
at the Very Least 'Controversial'!!?
Yet here he is Below being Showcased as a 'Genious'-Spelled Wrongly-and a Victor in Over 200
Bouts it seems!!-Methinks a Very Curious Choice for a Wrestler's Identity
And Yet Fast Forward 30 Years to a PAUL LINCOLN Special at The DE MONTFORT HALL in
LEICESTER on JULY 11TH in 1964 and The 'Ghost' of HANS Returns to a BRITISH Ring Long
After The Demise of The THIRD REICH!!
A Few Other Wrestlers were Dubbed with Leading NAZI's Names with the Use of GOEBBELS
and GORING!-Seems an 'Off the Wall' Attempt at Crowd Pulling to Me!
What do you Think??
MAIN MASK
1964 looks like a joke to fill up space. Someone with a sense of history.
