Pretty cool. It would obviously be great to get Tolos and/or Blassie. Its cool to hear real fans of wrestling just sitting and chatting and remembering who got them into wrestling and what they enjoyed about it back then. I personally don't have friends that are into wrestling so I don't get that much anymore. Glad to see the more conversational sections of the FG boards return.

It was definitely a lot of fun to hear. I also have my fingers crossed for Tolos and Blassie.

I couldn't get it to play. What did he say about L11? about Legends 11? not a whole lot other than it is being released in December And that they are trying to get permission to use Freddie Blassie and John Tolos (via Blassie's widow and Tolos' son). Don't get your hopes up because it's not even close to a done deal, but that is encouraging to hear.

Interesting tidbits there but it could be tough to get Fred Blassie due to his close affiliation with WWE. If they could sign both him and John Tolos that would be a huge. A set could be built around those two names alone.

I don't think Blassie's connection to the WWE would be a stumbling block at this point. If he were alive, yes, but I think his widow might like to see him honored, and if we could get both, we'd have L.A.'s greatest feud in its history to play out.

Those would both be great signings. Though I'm wondering, if L11 is not being released until September, why are they already releasing names like Johnny Saint? Or was Saint just tossed out to tease us until Dec?
