Lost Champions of Portland Wrestling ~ VIDEO

Great video on some of the original Champions of Portland Wrestling.  Some interesting information and great photos.  All before my time.  I wish I knew more about this history, or could see video of it. Unfortunately, archives were not kept and most matches pre-VCR days are gone forever.

You can also follow the markers of this video, Portland Wrestling,  on Facebook.
Also head over to YouTube and subscribe as they have new videos about Portland Wrestling periodically.

Portland Wrestling PBS Documentary 1970's

While looking for another video I came across this PBS sort of documentary of one night of Portland Wrestling in the 70's.  It features Jesse Ventura, saying he is going to retire from wrestling in 2 years, Iron Shiek, Dutch Savage and Jimmy Snuka.  Lots of views of crowd interaction with the wrestlers.  Dutch Savage and Iron Shiek are having a Coal Miner's Glove match that gets pretty bloody.
