This time around WrestleReunion will salute the career of the legendary Bruno Sammartino on August 26th. What better place to do that than Pennsylvania ...the longtime home of Bruno. When better to do it than August of 2005 ... the 25th anniversary of Bruno's historic cage match in Shea Stadium with Larry Zbyszko which, at the time, drew an unprecedented crowd to settle what many people consider the greatest feud professional wrestling has ever seen. This match between Bruno and Zbyszko launched Larry's career claim as "the living legend".
