Tiger Conway, Jr. is slated to make his first ever appearance at the Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Legends Fanfest in August.

Mike McGuirk attended the Arkansas Pro Wrestling event last Saturday. During intermission, she was brought to the ring by ring announcer Mike Iles and he announced she was celebrating a birthday. He then brought a young fan to the ring who was also celebrating a birthday and McGuirk presented the boy with his own WWE World Title while Iles led the crowd in signing Happy Birthday. Later before the main event, Iles brought McGuirk back to the ring so she could announce the participants for the match.

On the TV show "Duck Dynasty" last Wednesday night, one of the main characters, Jase Robertson, talked about pro wrestling, saying how rednecks have a fascination with pro wrestling and his favorite wrestler was Jim Duggan because he represented rednecks. He said he was really upset watching a show where King Kong Bundy beat Duggan. The show is filmed in Louisiana so he is probably talking about early 1980's Mid-South Wrestling. He also brought up Steve Austin and Jake Roberts.

The event was hosted by Dexter Hardaway.

There was a wrestling reference on Sunday night's episode of "Family Guy". Subsequent to a series of misadventures, Peter Griffin became a Muslim. He was hanging around with a guy named Mahmood, who took him to a meeting with some friends. This being "Family Guy", the Muslims of course turned out to be terrorists. They were skeptical about Peter's presence at their meeting and decided to interrogate him to make sure he wasn't a double agent. The interrogation consisted of exactly one question, which was "Who is better, Hulk Hogan or The Iron Sheik?" By responding that The Iron Sheik is better, all suspicions were dropped and Peter was welcomed into the group.
