I have seen in the galleries that a number of halls held Christmas Eve Shows but did anywhere hold Christmas Day shows, I know quite a few promotions in the USA held Christmas Day shows but have never seen a bill for a similar show in the UK. I was wondering how some of the wrestlers got back home after the Christmas Eve shows as cars were not as common in the 1940s/ 1950s as these shows I came across were in these decades. Did trains run through into Christmas Day?
I wonder if the Christmas Eve shows were well attended?
I am sure someone has some answers out there,
In the days before TV and when there were few car owners there would be some fans prepared to attend. The wrestlers were very committed to agree to fight even on Christmas Day
