Emil Czaja wrestlers here
Notes:
This is from a story printed in Hungarian papers during late March 1930 & early April 1930.
Josef Czaja is in the audience.
Josef shouted from the crowd something along the lines of, "How dare you call yourself a Czaja! You're a fraud, you son of a ****!"
Josef continued to expose Emil as a fake Czaja.
The papers said that the Romanian promoter(s) suggested Emil Zeimes change his name to "Emil Czaja."
[This story is the earliest known mention of the man who went on to be the famous "King Kong" Emil Czaya.]
