Nikita Koloff to be honored

The NWA issued a press release to announce that Nikita Koloff will be inducted into their Hall of Fame on June 7 in Atlanta. He joins Tommy Rich, The Midnight Express, and The Iron Sheik in the Class of 2008. [Thanks to Keith Lipinski]

Powell's POV: Nikita was hardly the best worker of his era, but he was great in his role as the menacing Russian Nightmare. I'll have more to say about the NWA 60th Anniversary event in my blog later today.
