Sputnik Monroe: Wrestling's Forgotten Hero

[Some Baritone guy IS REDEEMED!]

I recently wrote a paper for my Theatre History class in college, for a professor who recognizes Pro Wrestling as theatre. As a result, I was able to write my final paper on an absolute legend of the sport. The most important wrestler you've probably never heard of: Sputnik Monroe.

The paper got a 100 as the final grade, and I thought I'd share it here so that more people could know about this amazing man:

Wrestling's Forgotten Hero

Enjoy!

He certainly deserves more appreciation. Thanks for posting!

[Some Baritone guy IS REDEEMED!]

He's pretty much Wrestling's answer to Chuck Norris.

He outdrew Elvis Presley in 1950s Memphis.

He fought racism in the Jim Crow South... AND WON!

And he wrestled a bear!

I'm excited to read this! Always felt he's due for a movie about his life.
