Can we have SD Jones, Larry Sharpe, Cousin Luke or Jim Powers as the exclusive?! Or Frogman LeBlanc?! We still need Nikita Breznikov. He’s actually an “original” who has yet to get colorized |

Personally I would love Allison Brie, she was in GLOW after all. LOL. But that's kind of a hint to my TOP SECRET out of nowhere guess.
Randy Savage AS Bonesaw McGraw, I mean Spiderman is really hot right now, why not go with it. You might not be able to use the name but could use an updated drawing with old man macho man stats.
Honestly though I do agree with the guesses its going to be someone who lost a poll last year.

I mean the 3 strongest cards that are in Legends that had a "presence" in some sense of the word in what would be the Memphis territory are Randy Savage, Nick Bockwinkel, and "Strangler" Ed Lewis. Ed Lewis predates the territories so I'm not sure he really counts, so that leaves Bock and Savage. I'm also not really sure if Bockwinkel counts, since he was always an AWA guy who was part of that AWA/Memphis talent exchange for a little bit in the mid/late 80s...he was never really a "Memphis" guy. I'm probably forgetting someone though... You are forgetting someone. 😉 |

There's two major names with a Memphis connection still....one people probably don't know because it was early in his career, the other at nearly the end of his career.

Harley Race worked the territory in 77 and 85. Magnum TA in 85 on jointly promoted CWA/NWA cards. Snuka in 86/87. Backlund in the USWA in 95. I don't think that was during the "McMemphis" story, but just in the talent exchange day. Hansen in 83 for a run against Idol. Curt Hennig in 87/88 working with Lawler over the AWA title and then again in 93 for the USWA title... Mind you, these are all really brief times in Memphis. Snuka's or the Hennig AWA run were probably the most substantial. |

If anyone wants a hint, he had the run in 1978 |

Snuka's or the Hennig AWA run were probably the most substantial. Snuka won a tag title with JT Southern, but I’m all honesty, he was only around for a few shows and left. I think he may have had 3 shows at the Mid South coliseum , |
