S2 Ep85: John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight

John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight

Here is episode 85 of John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast. We break format with this show, as we bring on ECW Founder - Tod Gordon! Tod's new book "Tod is God" written by Sean Oliver hits the market and we bring on the man who founded Eastern Championship Wrestling, which later become EXTREME CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING.

Tod discusses the history of ECW from a fledging North East regional promotion to the expansion into the national game changing company that changed the face of pro wrestling forever!

Tod discusses the relationship with Paul Heyman, the good, the bad and the ugly! He hears clips of himself on Pro Wrestling Spotlight Radio Show for the first time as well.

We do a deep dive into the NWA Screwjob of August 1994, playing never before heard clips of Dennis Coralluzzo, Shane Douglas (right after he leaves the ring after dropping the NWA title on the ground and denouncing it), and Paul Heyman.

This is a must listen - with stories of ECW that have never been heard before!
