PURE WRESTLING GOLD!!! Rare footage of Bobby Davis, a young and agile Dr. Jerry Graham, tv announcer Ray Morgan with ring announcer Jimmy Lake-plus a near riot at the end. Thank you so much for posting this trudgen's gem. These guys could really get the heat.

[@Kayfabe-226]

wow...I remember watching this wrestling program every week from Washington with Ray Morgan the play by play guy...

[@buarainech88]

This was in the Capitol Arena, Washington DC on July 10th 1958

[@dodykusumanto8377]

So, this is Capitol Wrestling?

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

@@dodykusumanto8377 yes, original WWF

[@nanakia99]

Any footage with the Grahams is great

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

Awesome to see this stuff

[@Handsome_Gary_Kamensack]

Dr Jerry, Eddie, Crazy Luke, Superstar Billy and Dr Jerry Graham Jr...the first "First" Family of wrestling.

Love the EG move; distract Ref from the choking by threatening a punch in the ribs. Fun.

[@maddogwrestlingfan]

Thank you for sharing that gem.. that was pandemonium....

Jerry Graham's springboard leap over the top was probably originated right here. When The Doc trained me he insisted that I learn that move and told me all pro wrestling was going to become high-flying in the future and Japan's UWF in 1985 was the groundbreaker. Yet here is Jerry more than 20 years earlier innovating moves like that. He and Rocca were good drinking buddies and they'd try to outdo each other coming off the ropes. Rocca's death hit Jerry hard. He was drinking heavily and raising hell before that, however. RIP Doc. You'll never be forgotten. I know because I loaded up my new book "The Mat, The Mob and The Music" with stories of Jerry and my escapades. Watch for it soon on Crowbar Press.

[@marktorak5578]

Rare pro wrestling late 1950s i guess. Rhe Grahams Dr Jerry and Eddie Graham great stuff. Like to see more pro wrestling late 1950 s

[@markwest3485]

The announcer is the great Ray Morgan. Please put him in the Hall of fame Vince!

[@marktorak5578]

Sounds like Ray Morgan announcer. Used to listen to him watching wrestling from Washington D.C. mid to late 1960 s

[@robthomas229]

Dr. Jerry Graham a precursor to the American dream Dusty Rhodes

[@mr.mirchenstein6549]

Wow, what a crazy match! This is some really amazing stuff! Do you have the full Heavyweight Wrestling From Washington show?

[@seegetsan]

Thanks for this rare footage. I can see the reason why Grahams is so big draw at eastern part of US.

July 10, 1958. Capitol Wrestling Corporation (WWE) Show at The Capitol Arena in Washington, DC.

[@tomberry5517]

The four corners match that was meant to be but never was: Graham Brothers. Sheepherders. Shiek and Abdullah. Memphis Moondogs.

[@SabuSexGod]

Who's managing Doc and Eddie?

[@004752]

Bobby Davis.

[@DocFarnoff]

Everybody got their money's worth!

[@tomberry5517]

The Grahams were HATED . . . And the prototypes for the Valiant Brothers.

[@trish6]

Is it me or is this handheld footage of a TV showing the match? It looks kinda out of focus

[@004752]

it was filmed off a tv screen, like a kinescope, which adds to the presentation.

[@trish6]

@@004752 Yeah I thought so.
