Funk's Corner - NWA World Championship in St. Louis Dory Funk Jr. vs Gene Kiniski
 

Information credit Larry Matysik - From the Golden Era, St. Louis Wrestling Record Book.
 

October 11, 1969, The Arena in St. Louis, for the NWA World Championship Dory Funk Jr. vs Gene Kiniski (att. 15,099)
 

One week before the St. Louis Arena Show on television at Wrestling from the Chase, an interview with Gene Kiniski and Dory Funk Sr. ended with Kiniski attacking Funk Sr. and battering him. Dory Jr. came to help, but Kiniski pounded him too and threw Dory Junior out of the ring.
 

Arena St. Louis - NWA Champion, Dory Funk Jr. beat Gene Kiniski 2/3 falls. Lou Thesz special referee. Kiniski won the first fall and Funk won the second. Thesz stopped the bout and awarded the decision to Funk when Kiniski could not continue after hurting his knee and being caught in the spinning toehold to end the second fall.
 

Gene Kiniski was a football player and amateur wrestler from University of Arizona. Kiniski was trained by Dory Funk Sr.
 

Gene Kiniski saved my career in professional wrestling in 1963 in Vancouver BC when I severely injured my knee. I was scheduled for surgery but Kiniski intervened, telling me to show up for the show with athletic tape, tough skin and long tights. Over the next month, Gene taped my leg every night before I put on the long tights and entered the ring.
 

To this day, I have never had surgery on my knees.

Funk's Corner - Return Match NWA World Championship in St. Louis Dory Funk Jr. vs Black Jack Lanza 
 

Information credit Larry Matysik - From the Golden Era, St. Louis Wrestling Record Book
 

Sam Muchnick ran a tight ship in St. Louis. No abuse of the officials was allowed, there was a medical examination before participating, no foreign objects in the ring, no two men on the floor at the same time, wrestlers were instructed to keep it a contest and work for the pin fall, and to top that off the ring in St. Louis was one of the hardest in the business. Everyone received a lecture on what was expected of them prior to the show from either Bobby Bruns or Pat O'Connor.
 

With victories over Pat O'Connor (Arpil 25) and Edouard Carpentier, (May 16) Black Jack Lanza with Bobby Heenan were ready for a second try at the NWA World Championship.
 

Saturday June 14, 1969, at Kiel Auditorium, (att. 10,850 sellout) NWA World Champion, Dory Funk Jr. won from Black Jack Lanza with Bobby Heenan. Funk won the first fall with a spinning toehold after Lanza missed a knee drop from the ropes. Lanza was injured and the referee stopped the match giving the decision to Funk.

Funk's Corner - NWA World Championship in St. Louis - Dory Funk Jr. vs Black Jack Lanza with Bobby Heenan.
 

Information credit Larry Matysik - >From the Golden Era, St. Louis Wrestling Record Book
 

My second NWA World Title defense in St. Louis came Friday April 11, 1969. My opponent was Black Jack Lanza managed by Bobby Heenan.
 

Previosly, On March 7th in Kiel Auditorium, Black Jack Lanza was disqualified in a handicap match against Terry Funk and Whipper Billy Watson when Lanza's manager, Bobby Heenan interfered in the match.
 

St. Louis had never had an active manager and Heenan's interference generated incredible heat. Black Jack Lanza, and Bobby Henan were "Hot" in St. Louis.
 

April 25, 1969 Black Jack Lanza with Bobby Heenan in his corner beat Pat O'Connor setting up the next match for the NWA World Championship.
 

April 11, 1969, Dory Funk Jr. vs Black Jack Lanza with Pat O'Connor as special referee for the NWA World Championship best 2/3 falls, 1 hour time limit. Attendance 10,850 (Sell-Out)
 

Lanza was arguing with O' Connor when Funk scored  with a drop kick and cradle for the pin in the third fall. Lanza and Heenan blamed O'Connor and jumped him after the match generating tons of heat on Heenan and Lanza.

Funk's Corner - NWA World Championship in St. Louis
 

Information credit Larry Matysik - >From the Golden Era, St. Louis Wrestling Record Book
 

January 24th 1969 I faced Waldo Von Erich in St. Louis in a match that ended with Von Erich being disqualified.
 

February 22nd, 1969 a return match between Waldo and Myself was scheduled to take place in St. Louis under "Texas Death Match Rules."
 

However, February 11, 1969, in Tampa, Florida I became NWA World Champion with a victory over Gene Kiniski.
 

As a result of My winning the NWA World Championship, Sam Muchnick, Promoter in St. Louis and President of the National Wrestling Alliance changed the card.
 

The match between Waldo and I would not be a Texas Death Match but would be changed to an NWA World Championship Match.
 

With tickets already released for sale at regular prices, the wrestling fans would get a bargain, an NWA World Championship Match at regular prices.
 

The wrestling fans would get "More than their money's worth, resulting in a capacity crowd at Kiel Auditorium for my first appearance in St. Louis as NWA World Champion.
 

(Best 2 our to 3 falls) While losing the first fall to Funk, Waldo Von Erich injured his shoulder and could not continue.)
 

My next NWA Title defense in St. Louis - April 11, 1969, Best 2 out of 3 falls vs Black Jack Lanza

From Mike Cline - Mid-Atlantic Gateway
"The seed was planted for an incredible program between DORY FUNK and JOHNNY WEAVER which would stretch out over a full year, with some very interesting plot twists along the way."
"The NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP was the "Mount Everest" of the professional wrestling business. The AWA and the WWWF each had their own WORLD CHAMPION, and was their key title as well. But the NWA represented more territories and more geographical area than the other wrestling organizations. Hundreds of wrestlers would have loved to be the world champ, but few would achieve it."
