John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight John Arezzi

On this Best of Pro Wrestling Spotlight - Marsh and I review three classic shows from March.  The first two aired on 1440 WNYG in West Babylon, NY from March 4th and March 18th, 1990 (shows 48 and 50) and the third from March 3, 1991 (show 99), which originally aired on 1240 AM - WGBB in West Babylon, NY.
On these shows, guests include the first appearance Diamond Dallas Page, Cactus Jack makes his 3rd ever appearance on the show. Both those appearances come from 1990, and we have a classic interview with Hot Stuff Eddie Gilbert.
We also listen back to many of the memorable promotional spots that aired in those early days, plus many calls are reviewed including more from "George From Lindenhurst" "Rocco from Lindenhurst" and more!  
More fun, laughs and memories from those March episodes we treasure to this day!

On this Best of Pro Wrestling Spotlight - Marsh and I review two classic shows from February 1991, which originally aired on 1240 AM - WGBB in West Babylon, NY.
On this episode we focus on some of the legendary callers of that era, including "George from Lindenhurst", "Drew Rhodes", "Joey from North Babylon" and also Dr. Mike Lano joins the frey! Plus a listen back to the controversy of the WWF's Gulf War angle with Iraqi sympathizer Sgt. Slaughter. Wade Keller joins that discussion on the WWF angle.  And - a surprise caller from the Newark Airport - the Honky Tonk Man!   And enjoyable look back and lots of laughs on this one!

Here is episode 108 of the Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast - covering what was the final show of its almost 5 year run.  The show was broadcast on 1240 WGBB AM, in West Babylon NY. It was show 263 of the Pro Wrestling Spotlight series which aired on January 22, 1995  
Marsh and I review this "finale" which featured (fittingly so) Cactus Jack, as our last guest!
We announce plans to carry on with the all NEW podcast - THE PRO WRESTLING SPOTLIGHT - REWIND, which will kick off in time for the 35th Anniversary which was April, 1989.  We will have 2 specials before we go back to 1989. The first of which will be a show reviewing the ORIGIN of PWS, broadcast between 1975-77 during my years at Grahm Jr. College.  We will then have a 2nd special, reviewing the 1 show I did in the fall of 1985 with George Napolitano at WNYG (we were cancelled after one episode!). Then its back to 35 years ago, covering the April 1989 Pro Wrestling Broadcasts, then May 1989 and each month thereafter.
SO - MORE TO COME!!!!!

Here is episode 107 of John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast, reviewing the original broadcasts of show 262, which aired on 1240 AM WGBB in West Babylon, NY on January 8th, 1995.
Marsh and I bring on 2 guests for the podcast on this episode, which is probably the most explosive show we've done since beginning it 107 episodes ago. I comment on the recent Vince McMahon lawsuit and horrific scandal - and it's repercussions, and the history of my coverage of McMahon.  
On the guest front - a reunion between me and Mike Memphis after 30 years is a highlight for me.  I've know Mike since 1972, when he became a member of the Fred Blassie Fan Club.
Mike went on to become a widely known Elvis Presley impersonator, and we discuss our history and review a call he had with Paul E. Dangerously on WEVD.  
Our 2nd guest is wrestling historian Evan Ginzburg, who reviews his interview with Marsh and I with Eddie Guerrero, following the death of Art Barr.

Here is episode 106 of John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast, reviewing the original broadcasts of shows 260 and 261 which aired on 1240 AM WGBB in West Babylon, NY on December 11th and 18th 1994.  
Two shows are reviewed by John and Marsh, as show 261 was only 25 minutes in length so we added that show to discuss on this podcast.  John was doing a live "remote" from the Nassau Coliseum at the time which led to the shortened broadcast.
On the December 11th show, John welcomes special guest co-hosts from ECW, Tommy Dreamer and Mikey Whipwreck! Dave Meltzer also calls in from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Callers include a surprise return of Joey from North Babylon.
On the December 18th show, John is with Cactus Jack at an autograph show at the Nassau Coliseum.  John and Marsh also review the taped interview with ECW Founder Tod Gordon, who announces that NY fans will now get to see ECW on the Madison Square Garden Network.
