September 1, 1972 Chicago Soldiers Field Steel Cage Match!!

 Yes! My favorite match of all time and what a bloody mess! Dick The Bruiser and The Crusher had enough of Pretty Boy Bobby Heenan and The Blackjacks Mulligan and Lanza! Now, locked inside a 12' high Steel Cage, with nowhere to run,nowhere to hide,escape would only come by climbi g over. Ahh, thats not it, the Special Guest Receree is none other than Heavyweight Boxing Champion Jersey Joe Wolcott! The fans were on tbeir feet! The bloody Blackjacks and a vomiting Pretty Boy Bobby Heenan whos white ring garb was now blood red!

Blackjack Mulligan agreed to a exclusive interview with yours truly Chicagoland Tri State Wrestling Promotions Promoter Bob Brooks and Ms Melissa The Queen of the Ring! Mulligan shared about how cold it was due to fall Chicago Winds arriving early and coming through the renovation in the fields wall. Mulligan said it was a brutal match! Bob Luce at his best!
