Lou Thesz vs. Buddy Rogers 1963
NWA

In 1963, Lou Thez and Buddy Rogers were two of the biggest stars in all of wrestling, and had already went head-to-head in an epic encounter to determine the new NWA World Title.

Many promoters didn't recognise the match, due it only being a one-fall bout, so another battle between the men took place on February 7, under the more standard two-out-of-three fall rules of the time.
