Long Island's Professional Wrestling History & Landmarks: Brookville

A look at the history of professional wrestling on Long Island, town by town

Brookville

Brookville, New York has forged a rather unique connection to the world of professional wrestling by serving as a backdrop for memorable independent events. Particularly notable is a live event held on the campus of C.W. Post -- now Long Island University -- on June 26, 1981. The card was documented as including Andre The Giant, Sgt. Slaughter, Don Muraco, Dominic DeNucci (who helped train Long Island native Mick Foley), Johnny Rodz, and The Fabulous Moolah.
