S1 Ep13: Episode 13 - Reviewing July 2nd, 1989

John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight

Welcome to episode 13 of Pro Wrestling Spotlight Rewind - where we look back at classic shows from the archives of John Arezzi, going back to the very early days of pro wrestling talk on the radio. On this episode - we will review show #13 show which aired on 1440 WNYG in Babylon, NY on July 2nd, 1989.

The review of this show brought a lot of comparisons to what PWS eventually became - which was a true insiders radio program. But that was not the case in July 1989. From Broadway Sonny Blaze and John discussing the "new" East Coast Wrestling (ECW) organization that was starting up on Long Island and wrestlers being contacted by them (the promotion never got off the ground), to the worked interviews with Indy women wrestlers, to John promoting next week's exclusive interview with Terry Funk - the whole show was one big work! Listen for the first reference ever of the "Great American Nightmare" when 1989 John discusses Dusty Rhodes and his vignettes in the WWF.
