Those aspects never stopped guys from having long careers during the territory days. Especially with Vince grabbing talent you'd think promotors would grab him for name recognition. I read a lot about him in the Apter mags, and as a kid I assumed he was really good.
If only he was average at best. He was bad. His promos were even worse.
Mosca Jr probably falls somewhere between Erik Watts and post-stroke Mike Von Erich on the scale of most-over-pushed wrestling kids in history.
That's not to say he may not have grown into a better worker at some point, but seeing him beat Ivan Koloff for the Mid-Atlantic belt when he was green as a cucumber was just really bad. He needed to be working in a small territory for a couple of years before going to Crockett.
Watched that match on YT earlier to refresh my memory. Just terrible. Ivan should have just pinned himself. Would have been more interesting.
