@bohtzsah2002 The commentator is Ray Morgan, the original voice of the WWWF. The program was originally called "Big Time Wrestling", and Morgan was the commentator from 1963 until 1971, when he was first replaced by Bill Cardille, who was replaced later that year by Vince McMahon's son. They changed the show's name to "Championship Wrestling" when the location moved from Washington DC to Philly in 1970.
never saw a wrestling match from the 60's until now and really enjoyed it.also noticed how the commentator told what was going to happen before it did a couple of times
Good old-fashioned wrestling with Apollo really in control all the way

The audio is off a few seconds from the video. You can hear them fall a few seconds before you see it happen.

The commentary was not synched with the film. By the sounds of the crowd, this was a House Show and the audio may have been dubbed in later.
