This week, Tommy Rich is away in Philadelphia working a show so Doug and Gene invited a special guest to join them in 'the Grappler' Len Denton! A great conversation ensued covering how Len came about wearing the mask and who he "took" the Grappler name from, how he became the booker in Kansas City and the legend who felt he was the man for the job, how he felt about becoming a tag team with Tony Anthony in Mid South at the suggestion of Bill Watts, narrowly avoiding a tragedy at the Superdome in a match with the Junkyard Dog, protecting the business against a news reporter who called it fake, his relationship with Roddy Piper, plus the big Portland Wrestling Expo coming up in February, and much more! A really fun episode and an informative conversation with one of the top workers in the wrestling business who worked in nearly every territory during his career.
