Excerpt from "The Solie Chronicles" – Copyright © Robert Allyn
One evening, he sat in the comfort of his family room — vodka in one hand and a cigarette in the other, and spoke to his son-in-law, Bob Allyn. Gordon said McMahon’s company offered him a fair wage to continue on, and there was even a mention of him co-hosting with Gene Okerlund. He didn’t have a problem with the money offer or with Gene Okerlund, but Gordon said they wanted him to wear a tuxedo, and "he wasn’t going to wear any go—amn tuxedo."
The background material for this biography was found in Gordon’s personal files and taken from interviews with the people who knew him the best. It is written as a testament to a man who made his mark in many endeavors.

Late, Great, "Dean of Wrestling" to be honored live at Hostile Environment
NWA ARENA CORNELIA, GA SATURDAY 8-29-09 8PM BELLTIME
Robert & Pam Allyn proudly present "The Solie Chronicles" live in Cornelia,GA
We here at NWA Anarchy www.nwaanarchy.net are always looking to the future and that’s no secret. Part of what we do involves preparing the global superstars of tomorrow for their time to step up and take the reigns. As members of the National Wrestling Alliance, however, it is our DUTY to honor and respect the rich and incredible history of the organization that spans 60 plus years. In the state of Georgia, and most other prominent NWA territories, the golden voice of the late Gordon Solie was synonymous with the action you were seeing in the ring. Solie’s voice is arguably the most famous in wrestling history and his skill as an announcer may never be surpassed.
NWA Anarchy host Greg Hunter firmly agrees. "Had it not been for Gordon Solie & Lance Russell" stated Hunter. "You wouldn’t see me in this chair today nor would you see most any other wrestling announcers. They paved the way for all of us from the bottom to the top and every match I’ve ever called is an infinite tribute to the work they did. It will be among the greatest honors of my career to be involved in any event that pays tribute to Gordon Solie"
That’s why we’re pleased to welcome Robert & Pam Allyn to the NWA Arena as special guests for Hostile Environment. They are the surviving son in law, & daughter of the NWA & WWE Hall of Famer and we are pleased to help them in their efforts to launch the sale of their new book "The Solie Chronicles: The Life & Times Of Gordon Solie" courtesy of Crowbar Press. This book features an in depth look at the greatest wrestling announcer of all time with his life story told by his family, friends and peers who knew him best .
