3- Larry Zbyszko turns on Bruno Sammartino
Trending
He was hailed as the next Bruno Sammartino, but could not shed the likeness to his mentor. The two were inseparable. The storyline goes like this. He challenged Sammartino to an exhibition match so he could prove he could work on his own, in which Sammartino dominated the early stages.
After Sammartino threw him out of the ring, an irate Zbyszko seized a wooden chair and struck Sammartino, leaving him in a pool of blood. And a heel was born. Zbyszko would go on to win the AWA World Title and was one of the best heels of his time in the business.
