Portland Wrestling Program - February 16, 1988 - Frank Bonnema Memorial Extravaganza
Frank Bonnema passed not long before I started watching Portland Wrestling.
Getting the chance to watch him through YouTube videos has given me a real
appreciation of his commentary style. I didn't know much about him at the time of
this Extravaganza, but I sure could tell how much love and respect everyone had for him.

Grappler's One Man Show - w/Special Guest Top Gun
The Grappler had a one-man show on Saturday Night.
He and Top Gun were sharing stories of their time in wrestling.
They are both great storytellers and there were some really funny moments!
It was nice to see them both once again.
