Hi everyone! This just popped up on my Youtube feed: Hacksaw Jim Duggan's Official Youtube channel! Wow, how warm and inviting! And yeah, he mentioned he does Cameo videos, and I checked it out - $75.00 for a personal video, that's not too bad! Here's the link: www.cameo.com/hacksawjimduggan?aaQueryId=b9f02a0da045749556ff3e54dae59aa9I'd have to find out if he does card signings through the mail, so I can get my card autographed!

I've had the pleasure to meet Hacksaw twice and he is just the nicest guy in the world.
The second time was just a few months back with a good friend of mine and he asked us who our all time favorite wrestlers were. I said Terry Funk, and my buddy answered Eddie Gilbert. Duggan did a double take and goes "Well Shit, most people just say Hogan, Savage, or the Warrior. Those are some good answers!" Then he sat and chatted about both guys with us for a few minutes.

Cool! Duggan seems like a real laid-back, friendly guy! At least, in the video! They say never meet your heroes, but sometimes the heroes you meet are the nicest people, for sure! Thanks for sharing that story!  Todd C WTIC |

When I first met Hacksaw Jim Duggan it was in January 2020 and it was at a preshow meet and greet he had with Ted DiBiase where the two of them later that night were sharing stories with the crowd about their career. At that preshow meet and greet where I got got my LOW color cards autographed by Duggan and DiBiase (Miilion Dollar Man version,) Duggan asked me who I liked in the WWE. At that time I told him Drew McIntyre (again this was just a week or so before McIntyre won the Rumble and then won the title at Wrestlemania) and he seemed a little surprised by my answer and then talked to me for a minute or so about Drew. I later saw Duggan again 2 months later at the annual Las Vegas Toy Con and unfortunately his wife told Fred Ottman (after he signed the Filsinger Games release form) not to give me back the paper as it would conflict with his WWE Legends deal. Ottman would not return the paper to me but we left on a good note so I think he is definitely a possibility (because I had him signed if she had not said something) for the future if somebody happens to ask him about the game when his Legends deal expires (perhaps by now it already has?) |

I've heard that Fred Ottman is a great guy so it doesn't surprise me that he was interested in being in the game. I can't say I blame him for not handing back the form though. I wouldn't want to jeopardize receiving that sweet WWE money either. Nice to hear that the two of you left on good terms. I would love to get Fred and John Tenta in the game someday as The Natural Disasters. Speaking of Tenta he only lived about 20 minutes away from my house. My Dad even saw him one time in the local mall but didn't approach him as he figured he'd rather be left alone. |
