THE PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING HALL OF FAME'S
2004 INDUCTION WEEKEND

by Chris Sokol


I received "Shooting with the Legends" #1 this past weekend.  The new format is beautiful!  The size is just right and the photos look terrific.  The first part of the Zebra Kid story was excellent and the Bob Cook interview was even better.
However, the Tony Atlas piece was the greatest!  What an interesting man.  I'm not a fan of reality TV, but if anyone should have their own show, it's Tony Atlas.  He has lived life to the fullest and doesn't seem to be the least bit bitter about anything.  He may not have much material wealth, but he IS a rich man.  A book about him would be a must-read.
I haven't watched wrestling in about three months and haven't looked at the PW Torch or Wrestling Observer for weeks.  I'm sure that they couldn't be as entertaining as your new issue.  Old school wresting just can't be beat.
Keep up the good work and be sure to let me know when you plan to release any new books.

I got your "Shooting with the Legends" book today!  Congratulations!  It looks amazing!!  What a great idea — making it into a book form.  I often go back and re-read (again and again) all my WHT's, and now "Shooting with the Legends" will be on my bookshelf and always there to read.
I scanned the book and cannot WAIT to read it in depth.  The Bob Cook interview looks phenomenal.
