Nice interview... brings back memories! I worked with Tom as a fellow WWF'er from 1990-1994. Very talented and a class act. Always enjoyed walking down the hall, shooting the shit and checking out what he was working on. Wouldn't mind sharing my WWF(E) memories/experiences (I worked for WWF Magazine) with you, Jonathan!

That is super cool, what was your role in the company??

[@Maximusharn]

@@prowrestlingdefined I was a graphic designer for WWF Magazine. I also did much more due to my knowledge of wrestling. When Howard Finkle was not available, I served as "editorial technical consultant" in regard to specific wrestling maneuvers. I helped work on the early video games, specifically SNES Royal Rumble. I have many stories, including directing the photo shoot for The Undertakers first WWF Magazine cover. I also gave testimony for copyright infringement for characters used in an unauthorized video game - and I was only 23 years old... scared me to death! But my best experience was working on the photo shoot with an Asian Cobra for the Macho Man/Jake the Snake Roberts infamous "snake bite in the ring" story for the magazine.

Tom is an awesome guy. Jay Jahrsdoerfer was my grandfather and I was really into Superman so he reached out to Tom about some artwork. Dude sent me 4 signed prints of different things including a WWF one.
