I was on the WZW wrestling site.........

Anyway came across an interview with Gary Graham and he claimed Iceman was a "Legend" ......

How can Gary call anyone a legend, after all the Mick Mcmanus's, Alan Kilby, Johnny Saint, Haystacks, Daddy, Pallo, Les Kellett, Johnny Kidd, Roller Ball Rocco, Alan Colbeck, Adrian Street and many many more wrestlers deserve to be called legends...

After all these guys have done it all, and among the finest performers of their times.....Their names are carved in stone and wrestled for many years.

I just find it annoying that he calls a man that can bleed and go through tables a legend, yet becomes ignorant when it comes down to traditional British wrestling.

It looks like someone opens a website, who then thinks he is an expert on wrestling and he then opens a promotion and calls wrestlers that work for him "Legends"

Now i am not having a go at his wrestlers, but i am having a go at him for having the cheek to call anyone a "Legend" and they havent even busted their asses like the wrestlers of former years who went through the toughest training to become wrestlers, they then worked hard to make names for themselves.

You have to earn the right to be even classed as a "Legend" so anyone thinking they are "Legends" should think of the skill and the hard work the lads of yester-year had to put in to their performances.

We also have a great bunch of wrestlers on the circuit at the moment who get to go abroad and wrestle and work their arses off, yet seem to get hardly any recognition for their great achievments.

Doug Williams, Robbie Brookside are two of the most travelled men on the UK scene yet i have never heard anyone call them "Legends".....

So i am asking a question, what must you do to become a "legend"?

Surely i am right at getting annoyed at Gary Grahams interview when i read he is calling Iceman a "Legend" when he surely isn't ........ I am not having a go at Iceman i am using him as an example to why i think this Gary guy is totally wrong, and he should think about re-phrasing his words.
