What an interesting match-up featuring Johnny Weaver against Bruno Sammartino. It's a testament to how far back the Bobo Brazil/Sheik rivalry extends to see legends like Bruno and Weaver opening a three-match card.

From Terre Haute, Indiana in 1961. Clipping courtesy of the research of Carroll Hall.
