My Mood: Tournaments Joined: 0 Tournament Wins: 0 | another round of look-alikes? In today's mail, I got a pack of those wrestling legends cards (thanks to my favorite mountain coach if you're out there lurking), and one of the cards was of Mark Ironside (one of my all-time favorite wrestlers).
I had never noticed this before, and maybe it's just something about this particular picture, but it freaked me out how much he looks like Joey Slaton. I think it's eery on the John Smith-Hendricks level.

Mark's kids are in the CR Praire school district. Ironside has worked camps with Slaton, LeClere, Borschel, Anson, Mueller(ISU) and many other since they were young. Ironside is only about 10-12 years older than Slaton. Unlike the Smith/JH.
Mark could be his older brother though.

Ironside and Slaton do look a little alike. | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
