#19	Scott Ellison January 24 at 1:30pm Eggum is a character!!! Iol I grew up wrestling in Montana at the same time and Brandon has always been hilarious as well as a class act. I've enjoyed watching his success in wrestling over the years. I couldn't think of a more deserving individual, besides he's an Eastern MT boy so I'm biased. reply

Brandon Egumm

The Claw

June 5, 2007

One of the most legendary moves ever was developed by Brandon Egumm and his father through blood and sweat. Sometimes greatness takes an extreme perspective. Unfortunately due to the injuries it caused, the claw never saw its full potential. By his senior year the claw had been outlawed in folkstyle, freestyle and greco roman wrestling.
