Rebel-Bomber Win Mat Match

San Pedro News-Pilot – February 27, 1946

Rebel Russell, claimant to the Pacific coast heavyweight wrestling title, last night teamed with Henry (Bomber) Kulkovich, rugged Russian, to defeat Jim (Mighty) Casey, former coast champion and Marvin (Tex) Jones, at Wilmington Bowl.

One of the largest crowds in recent months saw Russell and Kulkovich score their tag team match triumph.

Frank Gonzales, Mexico City, won a referee’s decision over Kolo Stasiak in a 30-minute match. Jack Vansky defeated Myron Cox in the opener. Cox subbed for Tug Carlson, who was reported injured and unable to appear.
