1: A world-record holder
Trending
Chris Hero holds the record for the world’s longest ever pro-wrestling match. The match came for Canadian promotion Smash Wrestling. Hero came up with an intriguing concept for a charity match – he’d wrestle 30 minutes for every $500 raised. The eventual tally came to $3,440. It led to Hero wrestling a 3-hour and 10-minute gauntlet match against 9 separate opponents.
The match ended when Tarik, who Hero had already beaten thrice on the night, hit Hero with the Smash Wrestling Championship belt to pin him.
The record for the longest match in WWE is held by Bruno Sammartino and Waldo von Erich who wrestled an 81-minute draw at Madison Square Gardens.
