3. Want The Rub From Arguably The Greatest Wrestler Alive?: There are still a few spots open for the Killer Cradles Clinic with Wade Schalles: November 3rd, 2007. Only 2 weeks away! For those who don't know about Wade, here's an except from Mike Chapman's Legends of the Mat: "Two words that became synonymous with the name Schalles were “pinning” and “excitement.” Many wrestling buffs consider him the most exciting wrestler ever, and the most dangerous wrestler to ever step on a mat.
“There are three men who epitomize Pennsylvania wrestling &150; Mike Caruso, Stan Dziedzic and Wade Schalles,” said John Purnell, owner of Brute wrestling products and a long-time observer of the Pennsylvania wrestling scene. “Wade’s style of wrestling and ability to pin no matter what the score was brought excitement to our state and the entire sport. He was captivating to watch. He is a true and enduring legend in the sport.”
“Wade developed a gutsy, unorthodox, no-one-can-coach style that was fun to watch,” said Norm Pa
vlovcsik, one of the nation’s leading wrestling historians. “He was a showman, and the mat was his stage. His legend continued to grow because he could talk the talk and walk the walk.”
But there was more to it, said Pavlovcsik.
“He also had the greatest hips you’re ever going to find,” he said. “In the down position, he could get away with no hand control, stand up and reach back, and then throw his opponent straight to his back. He was as close to a Rick Sanders as anyone you’re ever going to see.”
His Clarion State record was 156-5-2, with a stunning 106 pins &151; the most in Division I history. By the time he had wrapped up his collegiate career, he was recognized alongside Bill Koll, Dan Hodge and Dan Gable as one of the greatest pinners in college history.
Always eager to take on new challenges, Schalles tried his hand at various styles of wrestling and eventually won national titles in folkstyle, freestyle, sombo (Russian judo) and in judo. In 1975, he won the national sombo title at 180 pounds by defeating legendary judo star and fourth-degree black belt Hayward Nishioka via submission in a wild finals match.
Nishioka scored first with a dramatic body scissors and arm lock that had Wade in serious trouble. With the crowd shouting in excitement, Schalles reversed the situation and caught Nishioka in the same punishing move. Moments later, the judo star submitted!
