Posted August 4, 200718 yr comment_5420182 http://www.loserleavestown.net/ Discussing his legendary career mainly in the Northwest, owning the Portland promotion, etc. Please reply with any questions you may have.
August 4, 200718 yr comment_5420187 Ask him about the athletic commission rules in Oregon and how that would relate to any possible broader issues involving drug abuse in wrestling today
August 4, 200718 yr Author comment_5420189 I believe the commission became an issue several years after he left the business.
August 4, 200718 yr comment_5420207 Ask him what he really thinks of Tom Perterson. Also, Ask him his thoughts on Art Barr.
August 4, 200718 yr comment_5420208 Maybe something about Beauregarde http://www.zenorecords.com/beauregarde/claw.htm Also with recent passing some thoughts on Sandy Barr's wrestling style (which from the Al Tomko fed stuff I've watched was a real carny almost British style like Mando). Curious Savage's thoughts on that style and how folks worked around it. I think Savage was pushed in teams with both teamed with Don Leo Jonathon and Stan Stasiak. Got to be alot you can ask him about way one should promote tall guys, stuff about maintaining own credibility while teaming with tall guys, etc.
August 4, 200718 yr Author comment_5420209 I just happened to get the Beauregarde CD in the mail today, so I will definitely ask about him.

Singh also formed a one-shot tag team with British ultrababyface Steve Veidor in New Japan around this time. Greatest thrown-together gaijin team ever, topping Abdullah Tamba & Mile Zrno and Hulk Hogan & Jimmy Garvin.
August 5, 200718 yr Author comment_5420223 http://www.loserleavestown.net/?p=21 Northwestern wrestling legend Dutch Savage joins me to discuss his career, with topics including how he broke in, bad payoffs from Nick Gulas and others, the creation of his specialty: the Coal Miner’s Glove Match, working with NWA World Champions, why he left the business, and more. A fun-filled and informative 36 minute interview.
August 5, 200718 yr comment_5420224 Bix, I don't know if there are any more Bixenspan Groups in the future since I guess you had some problems with the Kaiju guys a couple of weeks back, but you should really try to do one with some guys from this board. Particularly Loss, I'd really like to hear you and him discuss wrestling.

Particularly Loss, I'd really like to hear you and him discuss wrestling. Quoted for truth. I would love to hear a group show involving Goodhelmet, Rob Naylor, and whoever else. Actually, I was thinking the other day about how you should do an Indy summit. Basically just get a bunch of guys that are all over the boards (Brad Stutts, Preston Quinn, etc.) that work the indies to basically compare their schedules and various working conditions.
