Frank Gotch turned pro wrestling from a fringe spectacle to one of the most popular spectator sports. Still, it took Gotch three years to lure undefeated World Champion George Hackenschmidt to the United States for a title defense.
The result was two controversial but legitimate wrestling matches, whose effects were felt for the next two decades.
