The year 1921 was a wild one. Crowds rioted as Ed "Strangler" Lewis picked up wins, Stanislaus Zbyszko continued to dominate, and Billy Sandow makes a deal with "The Nebraska Tiger Man" John Pesek to keep outside talent in line.
It's a tale of violence, vendettas, riots, and even a little pro wrestling.
