Portland Wrestling Obscurities: Forgotten, Brief, and Barely Remembered - Episode 12
from Portland Wrestling · host Frank
🎙️ Episode 12: “Geronimo,Cordoza, Ivanhoff, and Red Fox” They weren’t headliners. They weren’t champions. Some barely lasted a single night in Don Owen’s House of Action. But they all laced up their boots and stepped into the ring in Portland. In this episode, we shine a light on four names you’veprobably never heard of: Geronimo — a short run in 1971, never winning a match but part of the long tradition of Native gimmicks. Pablo Cordoza — three matches in 1972, all losses, then gone without a trace. Serge Ivanhoff — maybe really Ivan Crnkovic, a Canadian part-timer who got one match in Portland under a new alias. Billy Red Fox — one match, one draw, and a mystery that lingers. These are the fleeting names, the wrestlers who slippedthrough the cracks but still belong to the story of Portland Wrestling. 📚 Inspired by The Encyclopedia of Portland Wrestlers by Mike Rodgers — available now on Amazon. 📅 New episodes every Tuesday and Friday! 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your wrestling history fix. 🔔 Don’t miss the next deep cut from the archives of Portland Wrestling.
