She got scared and ran after they found out she was an expensive hooker.

Anyone want to start a pool as to how many of these legends actually show up?

Okay, everyone who thought at least one of the names on that list of legends was dead, put your hand up.
*raises hand*

*My hand is raised*
also I'd be surprsied if Bruno Sammartino show'd up, according to everything i've read he hates what pro-wrestling has become.

Why can't there be conventions like this in OC?

Oh Da Brun just hates what Vince did to his pudgy kid.
Brun, seriously, you looked at Hogan, then looked at your boy and said, "Geeze, how come it's not Dave-A-Mania running wild?".
Get over it Brun, you're boy was a fat ball of clay.

Ah, you would think that about Bruno, but rumor has it TNA has gotten him to talk on an upcoming Kurt Angle DVD, so maybe he has changed his stance a bit, now that the attitude era is over.

Thanks for posting the Aronofsky interview. Great points of view listed there and I'm even more pumped to see the film now more than ever.

Bruno has appeared twice on ROH shows over the last couple of years.
And lol @ Disco Inferno being in the same paragraph as the word 'legend.'
