Fannin’s Flashbacks – Episode 5 – Rich Wayne

Episode 5 of Fannin’s Flashbacks is LIVE! On this episode, Jim sits down with “The Mayor” Rich Wayne. Great friends for the past 28 years that met at IWA Mid-South where both were mistaken for being with the Kentucky State Athletic Commission because they took notes to post results on AOL Grandstand! That friendship grew into late nights at JBoy’s restaurant until 5 am after shows, midnight bowling with Brent Blades and Nick Maniwa, doing a podcast called Seinfeld, Friends, and Wrestling together and going to 25 out of the 30 current MLB stadiums together on their yearly baseball trips together. Hear Rich discuss his friendship with Reckless Youth, putting the IWA softball team together, and being fooled into hauling around a broken trophy thinking it was legitimately the Brawl For All trophy that Bart Gunn received from WWF! Listen to Jim tell the story of sleeping with a WWE HOFer on the very first road trip he did in the wrestling business & so much more this week on Fannin’s Flashbacks!
