1954/03/05

[@user-mb6gh1vo8w]

子供の頃に「ジャイアント台風」というまんがに夢中になってプロレスを見始めました まんがの中にも登場するロッカ、名前は知ってたけど実際に試合を見たのはこの動画が初めてです 躍動的で面白いファイトをしますね もし来日していたら、日本でも人気になったでしょうね

[@dr.anthonytrasoline534]

Antonino Rocca was the most athletic wrestler of all time !!!

[@hugedisappointment309]

DR. ANTHONY TRASOLINE and one of the most popular too

[@mikemotta9754]

But he couldn't sell worth a damn.

[@ZeusDragon]

I find my recreated Rocca matches on my channel are so fun to watch and create!! he was awesome

[@ronaldlevao8251]

Kowalski often set an incredibly fast pace, but there are a lot of lulls here. Rocca liked short bursts of superb display but long periods of slow pulling and tugging to catch his breath. At his best, though, Rocca was one of the most graceful and effortless performers I've ever seen.

[@shikat2371]

Even some of the most dangerous heels, like Kowalski, were more civil than any of today's wrestling heels.

[@oswaldoreyes9066]

These were the real old time greats of Wrestling.

流智美さんのDVDですね。クールな語り口がいいですね。

KILLER KOWALSKI,TEX McKENZIE,KINGCURTIS AND BRUTE BERNARD MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES,

[@1950Grendel]

I met Bernard and Swede Hanson in a gym in the early 1970's. Hanson was very eloquent in telling some ring stories. Bernard never said a word.

Please allow another set of subtitle in English? I know we are not your primary audience, but I would like to follow the original commentary. Heck, if you can add a third set of subtitles, could you translate the Japanese for us? I heard you mention Bruiser Brody, so I suspect it's not the same as the English commentary.

自分はカウボーイボブエリスが華があって好きでした。

[@alexciocca4451]

Kowalski could have played Frankenstein

[@melbias5046]

what a name, the best ever! killer kowalski!

[@jaycompany4886]

コワルスキーはブロディを上回る身長。ブロディほど体重がないが、無駄な肉がなくレスリングに必要な筋肉だけ充分にある。 柔軟性があり、上半身と下半身のバランスが素晴らしい。ジョナサンを少し細くしたようだ。 対するロッカは佐山と同じくらいの身長か。 典型的ショーマン派だがテクニックに優れているのは一目瞭然。 何気なく出てくる蹴りはタイミングが図り辛く意外と防御が難しいのではないか。 こんな蹴り方が出来るのは相当柔軟性がある証拠。実戦でもかなり強そう。

two slabs of beef wearing each other down... well matched and 100% testosterone... best man won here

[@肥桶担ぎの助]

コワルスキーは、着道楽でも知られる力道山を唸らせるほど、いい服を着ていたらしい。それに対して、デストロイヤーなんかは、いわゆる吊るしのスーツだったらしい。

[@shikat2371]

In my view, Killer Kowalski should be among the top 10 or 20 most evil wrestlers to ever step into the ring. Many of his opponents have left the ring in a bloody, gory mess, including the legendary Bruno Sammartino. His contemporary, The "Original" Sheik, was equally sadistic and so was Abdullah the Butcher. As an aside, notice the kind of audience they had back in the day. They comprised mostly of adults dressed in semi-formal attire. Today's wrestling audience though is vastly different. Some of today's spectators don't even have clothes on. That's a shame.

[@GottliebGoltz]

shikat2371 Killer also left some bloody messes while winning the all Texas Brass Knuckle Championships for several years. None of that was planned ahead of time as is pro wrestling. Killer has an extensive interview on His wrestling career where He explains how that all went down. ~( :-})={>--- ]

[@jonathanturbide2232]

Type of audience: Well, society has changed a lot since 1954 so of course it's not the same type of crowd we see today. This type of audience wasn't exclusive to pro wrestling, people dressed that way all the time -- movie theater, opera, baseball, wrestling, a simple errand at the grocery store....that was the mentality back then, to look as classy and as dapper as possible every time you went out, a mentality that disappeared with time as society evolved (for good or bad). And that's not necessarily a bad thing, as long as the fans shows respect to the wrestlers and to the art of wrestling it doesn't matter how they are dressed, wearing a fancy hat or a $2000 coat means nothing if you can't respect those busting their backs out there.

[@gatherer47]

this ring announcer would always mispronounce Rocca's first name

[@lainefrajberg813]

Why was Rocca awarded the second fall?Actually,the Killer should have won the fall by a count out.

[@fortnitegames5217]

awsome

[@肥桶担ぎの助]

この語りは、誰だろう?流智美さんかな?ブロディが菜食主義者とは知らなかった。ツナ缶のみで、あの身体が出来るんだ。

[@肥桶担ぎの助]

コワルスキーのニードロップ、助走なしでも、高いなあ。

[@PtolemyJones]

The Killer has a look similar to Barrett.

[@alvingibbs2750]

I think thats enough killer

[@vincentgangoneschannel4270]

This is real right

[@coyotedynamic3048]

Yes a flipping hand stand to take down your opponent. Very realistic

[@ZeusDragon]

I am recreating the history of wrestling... lost footage matches... got a few hundred golden age matches ... you might enjoy ..

[@goodguystu]

Killer didn't sell very good. Saw him live many times, lousy

[@Dorelaxen]

Dipshit.
