Alex Marvez: Remembering Jack Brisco
By ALEX MARVEZ, Scripps Howard News Service
Few pro wrestlers were as successful as Jack Brisco.
Even fewer have announced their retirement and actually followed through with it.
Brisco — the industry’s top world champion of the 1970s — died Monday from complications following open-heart surgery. He was 68.
Although he left the business in 1984, Brisco remains such a revered figure that he was honored with a posthumous graphic by World Wrestling Entertainment on this week’s “Monday Night Raw” telecast. He grappled worldwide as the National Wrestling Alliance champion from July 1973 to December 1975. Brisco was known for long matches that incorporated elements of his acclaimed amateur-wrestling career.

On Friday, Feb 5th, 2010 Combat Championship Wrestling invaded the Advantage Village Academy Gym, 1201 22nd St South, St Petersburg, Florida.
There are actually people upset over Vince McMahon “making the announcement to end ECW” this past Tuesday night. If you’re a fan of the WWE TV show that airs on Tuesday night, sorry you’re upset. it’s not just fans, but has even been suggested that McMahon’s decision is the reason that Tommy Dreamer left WWE. But for all of you who don’t realize it, ECW died in 2001 when Paul Heyman ran out of money. For for anyone who was there in person for the real ECW or has seen tapes and DVDs, the WWE TV show that aired on Tuesday nights never was ECW…or even anything remotely close. It’s sort of ironic that the original ECW first aired on Tuesday nights, on SportsChannel Philadelphia at 6:00 pm. I wish a lot more people could have seen the real thing, rather than edited versions on WWE Classics.
