 Your Best Match /with who?

 when I beat Randy Perry at the City Lites I tournament early 2005. I Had him almost pinned and then was called for an elbow foul. Had to pin him again for the win. What was great for me about this is that I remember Randy from back in the early 90's when I first started and looked up to him as good arm wrestler. Never thought I would pull with him let alone beat him.
