Sam Muchnick was a major force in the creation of the National Wrestling Alliance in 1948 and in 1950 would serve as the President of the most important governing body in professional wrestling from 1950 to 1977 (with the exception of two years). Muchnick would preside over the St. Louis territory making it one of the healthiest in the United States and would be the most influential men in the history of the NWA.
Form many years, Willie Gilzenberg was the President of the World Wide Wrestling Federation, but this was not a “figurehead” President like Jack Tunney was in the 80’s and 90’s. This guy really was the President!

Some of you may be aware of the story that Vince McMahon Jr. took over as the lead announcer for the then named World Wide Wrestling Federation when his father let the existing one go over a pay dispute. The man he took over for was Ray Morgan, the original voice for the Capitol Sports Promotion and the man who narrated the rise of Bruno Sammartino.
