Portland Wrestling Obscurities: Forgotten, Brief, and Barely Remembered - Episode 12
Description
🎙️ 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.
