Danny Savich vs. Bull Curry
Date: February 22, 1955
Location: Sportatorium, Dallas, Texas
This is from Texas Rasslin and as usual, it is 2/3 falls. Curry was known as Wild Bull and was the closest thing to a hardcore guy of his day. Commentary suggests that this is heel vs. heel as Savich is shoved into the corner to continue the first gear. Curry takes him down to pull on the arm but a distraction from someone at ringside lets Savich get up and stand on Curry’s face.
Some choking next to the rope has Curry in more trouble and a cover almost brings Duke Keomuka (the someone at ringside) into the ring for a save attempt. Curry throws him over the top and kicks him off the apron but Savich slingshots in with a crossbody/splash for two. Savich fights back and hits Curry in the face to win the first fall at 8:51.
The second fall begins with Curry unloading on him to take over and whipping him hard into the corner. They fight to the floor to continue the slugout until Curry gets back in and knocks both Savich and Keomuka off the apron. Back in and Curry snapmares him down, setting up a double stomp to the face for the second fall at 12:49.
They grapple against the ropes to start the final fall with Savich taking him into the corner for a stomping. Curry is back with some right hands to the face and it’s more grappling against the ropes. Some right hands knock Savich onto and then off of the apron with Curry following. Keomuka and Savich double team Curry on the floor (the referee is fine with this) and throw him back inside where Savich hits him in the face for the pin at 18:58.
Rating: C-. I wasn’t exactly feeling this one but the brawling and slugging worked well enough. Sometimes it’s ok to have two people beat each other up for a little while and that is what we had here. I’ve seen a bit of Savich and he seems to be a good heel, which Curry is a good bit more famous and has a reputation for a reason. Not a great match, but I’ve seen much worse.
Nice day for a wedding anniversary.

The Wrestling World Pays Tribute To Scott Hall.
https://wrestlingrumors.net/tommyhall/wrestling-world-pays-tribute-scott-hall/
Of course the important point of the day is Scott Hall. I’ll have more on this in the column this week but this is one of the jarring ones to me. Hall was someone I remember debuting in the WWF in 1992 and he was just straight up cool. Either in the WWF or WCW, Hall always felt like one of the awesome guys that could always do something good. He has the pair of ladder matches with Shawn and of course jumping the barricade on Nitro, but he was also one of the perfect Intercontinental Title guys. A buddy of mine once said he always seemed happy in that role and that is a very valuable person to have. This one hurts and again it is due to something that he didn’t bring on himself to make it even worse. I’ll miss him and the tributes have been harder to sit through than usual.
