been to was world-class championship

wrestling when I was playing football at North Texas State University and I was there

from 86 to 87. I might have got there in the back end of 85 playing football at

NWA WCC a little bit of AWA WAWA W. W. W. F at the time really wasn't down where we were at because everything was
