The Mouthpiece Wrestling Show” with Sheldon Goldberg, Joe Matterazzo and Mike Johnson returns on Saturday, January 30 at 3:00 PM EST on WWZN 1510 AM in Boston.
Joe is off this week, and Mike Johnson calls in from the big Wrestle Reunion event in Los Angeles. We begin the show this week with a rememberance and tribute to the late Georgiann Makropoulos, the true first lady of pro wrestling. For those unfamiliar with Georgiann, tune in to get a glimpse into one of the most important people in pro wrestling, who never stepped foot inside a ring.
This week’s special guest is author Larry Matysik, the former assistant to NWA founder and president, the late Sam Munchnik, who went on to become the voice of St. Louis wrestling and later a booker and promoter, as well as having worked for the World Wrestling Federation as part of the company’s national expansion in the mid-80’s. Matysik has one of the most unique views of pro wrestling and he shares many of his experiences in the first of a two part interview airing this week.
Matysik is the author of 4 books on pro wrestling: Wrestling at the Chase, Brody, From the Golden Era: The St. Louis Record Book 1959-1983 and his latest, Drawing Heat the Hard Way: How Wrestling Really Works, all available from ECW Press via amazon.com and bookstores everywhere.
Make sure you join us this Saturday, January 30th at 3 PM EST on 1510 Am WWZN Boston. The Mouthpiece Wrestling Show kicks off a three hour block of fight talk on 1510 AM. We are followed by Mouthpiece MMA and The Mouthpiece Boxing Show.
