John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight
Welcome to the 14th episode of John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast! This episode will cover the original broadcast of the Pro Wrestling Spotlight, which aired on January 19th, 1992, on 1050 AM WEVD in New York, NY.
Bob Smith, Donny Laible and John review the 3rd show on WEVD, and there is lot here! We begin with the news coverage of the 1992 Royal Rumble, won by the Nature Boy Ric Flair with a very cool open to the show. It is also headlined by the breaking news that Joel Goodhart goes out of business, canceling the January 25th show that was scheduled to feature the Battle of the Nature Boys - Buddy Rogers vs. Buddy Landell! Buddy Rogers comes on the year to discuss both the Goodhart situation as well as Flair winning the WWF title! We then bring on Big John Studd to discuss his involvement with Boxing Promoter Don King, steroids, and takes calls from the WEVD listeners! It is the best WEVD show to date - with its flow, guests, and production elements.
Patrons - be sure ...
