My College Proffessor Would Be Proud of This

  Back when I was taking business classes in college, I had a professor who mentioned WWE in his lecture. He told us about how he knew Bob Backlund personally. Being a WWE fan, this had excited me. I forget the details about how he got to know him but it was cool hearing his story about him.
  As of lately I've been trying to downsize my WWE Action figure collection down to just the Women's division figures and Kane figures and some of my favorite legends. So Bob Backlund wouldn't have been a purchase for me since I was downsizing the collection. If you don't know this by now, Walmart has been having Flashback Elites as chase figures. They are a pain in the ass to find, and they are one per case. Chase figures are always shortpacked in cases.
  So I knew about the exclusive Bob Backlund for awhile now. I was on the fence about getting one since the story of my Business professor told me. I probably was never going to find this figure at retail. I never did find it at retail. Why is that? My Walmart keeps getting slammed with those Elite Top Picks. Did my Walmart get Elite 65 with Sensational Sherri? Nope. Was I able to get a Sensational Sherri? Yes I was. I didn't find either in stores. So how did I get them? I simply traded for them. Sherri will be in another story, so here's the story of how I acquired Bob Backlund. I had a basic Great Khali and the last basic David Otunga that another collector needed. Years ago I bought the 2 pack with Great Khali and Matt Hardy, and it paid off. I traded off the Matt Hardy several years ago and I kept the Great Khali for a long time. I really didn't want to let The Great Khali go, but I enjoyed him for 7 years, and it was time for him to get a new home. So we agreed to trade the Bob Backlund for Great Khali and David Otunga. If only I was still in college so I could show my old professor the action figure, he would be proud to see it.
