Timeline

1934

George Momberg (May 13, 1934 – August 24, 1995), better known by the ring name Killer Karl Krupp, was a Dutch-born professional wrestler famous during the 1970s and early 1980s.

Born in the Netherlands, Momberg was interested in amateur wrestling as a youth.

At the age of 16, he went to Canada and was involved in many sports, rowing and participating in amateur wrestling at the Hamilton Jewish Centre and in the local YMCA.

1957

He made his debut as a professional wrestler in 1957 as "The Flying Dutchman" Dutch Momberg, and started wrestling in Canada around 1965.

1970

In the early 1970s, Momberg hit upon the gimmick that would make him a star, the character of German heel, Killer Karl Krupp.

The gimmick had been around a good twenty years by this time, first popularized by Hans Schmidt and carried further by later stars, such as Fritz Von Erich.

A late entry into the field, Killer Karl Krupp was among the most wildly over-the-top of them all.

With eyes bulging, head shaved and a short black beard framing a leering grin, Krupp was the very image of a wildly cartoonish, yet frightening wrestling villain.

He accessorized for the part with a monocle, riding crop, heavy black boots and black ring cape, and delivered ranting promos in an affected German accent rife with mangled pronunciations.

Utilizing other familiar staples of the German heel gimmick, Krupp goose-stepped to the ring, threw stiff-arm salutes, and used an Iron Claw hold (the 'Eye Claw') as his finishing move.

What was unknown to the public at the time was that Momberg hated the Nazis, who had occupied his homeland.

1972

On June 10, 1972, Krupp defeated Leo Burke for the ESA's IW North American Heavyweight Championship.

1973

Early the next year he went to Japan, where he had many of his early successes, co-holding the NWA International Tag Team Championship twice between February and April 1973 (once with Johnny Valentine and once each with fellow 'evil Germans', Fritz Von Erich and replacement partner Karl von Steiger).

Stateside, Krupp first became a big name in the Texas territory in 1973, before moving on to Portland in 1974, where he feuded with Dutch Savage.

1974

He also reached the final rounds of the 1974 and 1975 New Japan Pro-Wrestling World League Tournaments, both of which he lost to Antonio Inoki.

Krupp and Von Erich worked as the "Iron Claw Masters" in Japan.

1975

He also appeared in CWF Florida in 1975, where he was a two-time winner of the NWA Southern Heavyweight Championship, and then moved on to Dick the Bruiser's WWA in Indiana.

There as well as in Detroit, he used the moniker Baron von Krupp.

1980

In 1980, Krupp came to Memphis, where he tangled with Jerry Lawler.

He returned before long, however, to Atlantic Canada, where he had a memorable run in Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling.

In the mid-1980s, near the end of his career, he feuded with Angelo Mosca around southern Ontario.

1983

By the end of March 1983, he began wrestling in the Dallas Texas-based territory for Fritz Von Erich's World Class Championship Wrestling.

1988

Krupp retired from the ring in 1988.

George Momberg retired to his adopted home in Atlantic Canada in 1988, working for the Midland Trucking Company.

1995

He died on August 24, 1995, in Moncton, New Brunswick, after contracting hepatitis while wrestling in Japan.
