History
The place and time of origin of mud wrestling is unknown. An early instance can be seen in the 1966 "shockumentary" film Mondo Freudo, though its origins may be much earlier.
Houston wrestling promoter Paul Boesch is credited with the invention of mud wrestling, as he came up with the concept for the match when booking a feud between Gus Sonnenberg and Harnam Singh in Seattle, Washington,which he promoted as an"Indian Dirt Match." Its popularity in the United States increased in the 80s, and later spread worldwide. Although originally performed in bars and nightclubs, organizations have staged mud wrestling events for fun and charity.
