    He had probably been around long enough in the territory that he finally got over as a face with the fans. Or, your reason. Was Ox Baker always a heel?

    If the lady in the video below is anything to go by, Bull Curry was a chick magnet!

    I'm not sure about Ox. Anyone else know?

    Don't let this lady hear you talking shit about Bull Curry

     

    I'm actually more fascinated by that last lady's story LOL.

    I don't want to overwhelm you with stuff but Matt D on Youtube has a bunch of French stuff pre-1970.

    No no you're not overwhelming me at all, the more stuff the merrier! I'm deffo interested in French Catch and will be working on it in due time.

    Yeah somebody recently alerted me to what he's been doing. I'll certainly be having a serious look at those playlists. Thanks.

    The Carpentier match was pretty fun. He was way ahead of his time. The Baron Gottoni match was dreadful though. I didn't get to watch the other one yet.

    Carpentier showed flashes of what he could do in that match, shame it wasn't longer though.

    I found old wrestling including the Buddy Rogers title win on Tubi

    I just tried to go on the Tubi site but it's not available in my area apparently. I live in the UK.

    The Chicago Film Archives on YT has a ton of stuff including some Lou Thesz/Buddy Rogers. 

    This thread is a great idea. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. I already watched the Carpentier match.

    Thanks for that mate. I'll be going through what exists from that territory very soon. And glad you like the thread.

    There's 145 pre-1970 matches recommended on Cagematch, so that's probably a good start:

    Excellent. I didn't know that so thanks!

    As the title of the topic suggests, I'm attempting to compile a master-list of surviving professional wrestling footage from before the year 1970. However, I won't be covering everything from that era, there'll be no newsreels, filmreels or short highlights of any kind, only substantial footage. I will include certain stuff that's joined-in-progress as long as it's more than just the finish to a match or segment and I'll be adding links where I can so that what I find can be viewed by those interested. I'll be placing all updates here in the first post in geographical order so it's easier for everyone to locate them but I'll also leave a reply at the bottom of the topic to notify people too. This project is a work-in-progress but here's what I've come up with so far:

    CANADA

    Queensbury Athletic Club / Maple Leaf Wrestling (Toronto, Ontario) (1930-1969)

    1957

    (01) Baron Gattoni -vs- Red Lyons (17th January 1957)

    LINK - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbryxEaEUY0

    (02) Bill Miller & Ed Miller -vs- Ken Kenneth & Pat Flanagan (17th January 1957)

    LINK - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxczOHu0PwY

    (03) Édouard Carpentier -vs- Steve Stanlee (17th January 1957)
