November 29 2006 Figure Four Daily
We’re joined today by Jeff Bukantz, captain of the US Olympic Fencing Team and a HYOOGE wrestling fan dating back to the 60s~! Jeff ran two fundraiser shows in the 90s, immortalized in the $1 Wal-Mart Grandmasters of Wrestling DVDs, and has a ton of stories to tell from that experience (particularly since he wrestled IRON SHEIK~! in the main event!). We’ll talk about that, growing up around wrestling in the 60s and 70s, run-ins with Vince McMahon Sr., his friendship with Ken Patera and others, training to be a wrestler, being held up for money, dealing with crabby wrestlers, and tons more. A fun show!
