S1 Ep21: John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight

Welcome to the 21st episode of John Arezzi's Pro Wrestling Spotlight Podcast! This episode will feature a deep dive into the Origin of the Pro Wrestling Spotlight with Co-Host Bob Smith and the one man wrestling encyclopedia, Don Laible! We cover the pro wrestling radio scene before the PWS - and the lighting of the spark that motivated John Arezzi to begin the show. We take you through the college days with some amazing vintage clips from 1975-76 on the original PWS from Grahm Jr. College in Boston.  We then go to 1985 to discuss the one show run of PWS on WNYG with George Napolitano. Then we go back to 1989 for the return of PWS on WNYG with inside stories never heard before!   A 2 hour 34 minute look back!
