ECW Founder Tod Gordon and his co-author Sean Oliver will be signing copies of Tod's memoir Tod Is God: The Authorized Story of How I Created Extreme Championship Wrestling this Saturday 8/26 before and after a 6 PM screening of Barry Blaustein's Beyond the Mat at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens, NYC.

Gordon and Oliver will also be introducing the screening of the excellent 1999 documentary, which focuses on Terry Funk, Mick Foley, Jake Roberts, the WWF and Extreme Championship Wrestling's first-ever PPV Barely Legal.  It will be the first time the film has screened in NYC in many, many years and the first time the film has been seen anywhere since the passing of Terry Funk, the greatest wrestler of all time earlier this week.
