The EMLL 4th Anniversary Show (
Production
Background
The 1937
Storylines
The event featured an undetermined number of professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers involved in pre-existing scripted feuds, plots and storylines. Wrestlers were portrayed as either heels (referred to as rudos in Mexico, those that portray the "bad guys") or faces (técnicos in Mexico, the "good guy" characters) as they followed a series of tension-building events, which culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[6] Due to the nature of keeping mainly paper records of wrestling at the time no documentation has been found for some of the matches of the show.
Event
Records of most of the early anniversary shows are not found, only one of the matches are documented.[2][7] The show was originally slated to take place at Arena Nacional, which had become EMLL's main arena, but due to a fire it was moved to Arena Modelo, the original Arena México.[2][3] Records indicate that Jack Mandell, Larry Kasaboski, Lee Metcalfe and El Lobo Negro also wrestled on the show, but no indication of what matches they competed in.[2][3] In the only recorded match Jack O'Brien, defeated Joe Maynes.[1][2][3][7]
