Trending
The moment is exactly like the Montreal Screwjob. Anyone who knows their wrestling history will be well aware of what went down on 26th May, 1950 between Gorgeous George and Don Eagle. For those who don't know, let's delve into what happened that night.
If it wasn’t for Gorgeous George, the wrestling industry wouldn’t be what it is today. He was was incredibly popular in the 1950s, a heel in every sense of the word. He was one of the most recognizable faces in the industry.

Just like with the Montreal Screwjob 47 years later, a referee called Earl would be at the center of the scam. Don Eagle was prepared to defend his world championship in Chicago against Gorgeous George. However, the promoters in the back seemed to have other ideas. Referee Earl Mollohan would double cross Eagle. As George went for a pin attempt, Mollohan would count the champion's shoulders to the mat despite kicking out.
Gorgeous George was now the new champion. Earl Mollohan left not only the ring, but the building quickly. This left an infuriated and shocked Eagle wondering what had just happened.
