Al was one I also enjoyed from watching Portland and World Class.

And the hard part with an Al Madril card is he seems to want NOTHING to do with his wrestling past (not sure if that is real or not, just a prevailing rumor)... and yes, the bulk of his time was Texas and Portland... he is one on my list of boots to get done, just haven't gotten to him on the list yet, lmao!! I've heard that as well, but can't speak for the accuracy of it either. If it's true, it is certainly unfortunate as he had a really wonderful career. He also spent some time in the Shire territory as well. I really only remembered seeing him as a rather bland babyface when I was a kid watching World Class on ESPN, but re-watching things as an adult, what a fantastic heel Madril was. The Fiesta Garden is absolutely wonderful! When you get around to making that boot, let me know. I will certainly want to get in on that! |

Could the USWA possibly be included in this set? I thought they were out of Memphis too. If so, would pay double for an Eric Embry card back when his feud with Kamala, Gary Young, etc. Was one of the hottest feuds of that year.

I've been reliving the Eric Embry, World Class becomes USWA angle on YouTube, and I would also love to see en Embry card! |

Yes, there could be guys from the USWA years of Memphis in this set. I'm not saying there are...or there aren't.  |

Count me in for Flamboyant Eric Embry--Light Heavyweight Champ of the whole wide world, man!
BTW, he had one of the best entrance songs in history--Turn Me Loose by Loverboy!

The man who helped knock SCW off USA giving the spot to the WWF.
Still, would love the guy. When I was getting into wrestling, Eric was all over the Apter mags for the USWA stuff.

An Eric Embry card would be incredible.

Speaking of guys who worked a little Memphis but made their bones elsewhere, let me throw in the name Chris Colt.
