My little guy is a big Star Wars nerd, so when he helps around the house, cleaning and picking up, he'll earn money which he'll use to buy some Star Wars figures
There is a toy shop that sells used, loose stuff that is across town, so we never get to go, but he ALWAYS asks because they have tons of Star Wars stuff.
He's a pretty polite kid, so he asked very nice if the owner could please unlock the case so he could see the loose Star Wars figures when we went in. The owner was very friendly towards us and such after that.
Well, he picked out a couple of figures so I went up to pay and noticed a signed Roadkill picture on his wall and asked if he was a wrestling fan. He said more old school "memphis stuff", but was good friends with Roadkill.
When Roadkill was in Ohio Valley, he would come in all the time to buy Star Wars figures and they became good friends, from him coming in the store, and talk all the time. I started talking to him about Legends and many of us wanting Roadkill in the game.
So I'm going to give him a copy of my Memphis stuff, show him theh game and he's going to try and sell Roadkill on maybe "reconsidering".
So lets keep our fingers crossed. I'm going in one day next week during the day when it's slow so I can show him Legends and the Memphis stuff.

Fourth World comics is next door to my job at the post office...Roadkill actually lives out by me, but does his mailing from my post office when he's going to Fourth World...I happened to run into him at our "local" post office a couple of weeks ago & we had a lengthy discussion about Legends...he seemed very interested, so I told him to check out the website...I too have become friendly with the owner of the comic book store & just happen to be going to my job today to pick up Rancid tickets for the weekend, maybe I'll stop in the comic book store & see if we can formulate a plan, as I don't think I'll be able to attend Roadkill's signing.

Hahaha, yes I know this Havoc, Tom said he got a callback from Savage! I won't but WWFs Legends of Wrestlemania cuz he's NOT in it. If Tom was to get Savage or Hart I think that would be huge for the game. What I meant by my comments were that I really appreciate these guys efforts and hope we can have the same kind of push for bigger names possibly!
