Lion Fan 2: Now that I'm on my lunch break I'll try to reply. It is a fair question, but not one I can give a great answer to. I think Tommy vs. Jake would have been a tremendous match. We'll never know who the winner would be, but I bet they would split if they wrestled several matches. They both had strengths over the other.

As for where Tommy stands in Goddard history; he is somewhere near the top. Too many factors come into play to say that because he is the only three timer, he is the best. It's kind of like the argument as to which class is the best. It's all opinion. Bill Brine, the Liens, Jake, David Ray, the Means', and many others have been great. He definitely fits in there with that group. Sorry if I left any others out.

What I do know for sure is that Tommy is a great wrestler.
