DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Audio Show: Thinking About Mark Nulty and Classic Wrestling History. On this show I want to take a little time and reflect on the contributions of Wrestling Classics owner and former announcer Mark Nulty to the wrestling history community and just where does pro wrestling history stand? What are we still following wrestling for and what is it doing for us? Why are the demographics of wrestling skewed so old and why do wrestling promoters ignore it? We will follow up on a recent conversation between Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez on a recent Wrestling Observer Radio show and take a more detailed look at what it all means. Then we will examine the biggest draws in wrestling history and talk about who the biggest draw in Canadian history might be and discuss names like Whipper Billy Watson, Gene Kiniski, Bret Hart, Yvon Robert, Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, and more.

Wrestling Weekly: Daniel Bryan retires, Titus O’Neal suspension
Les and Vic return after a brief absence to explain why they’ve been gone and to get into the biggest stories of the week. Of course, that means starting with the retirement of Daniel Bryan, aka. Bryan Danielson (12:23), including memories and personal interactions with him from Les and Vic’s theory on why Bryan was someone who no matter what WWE did or didn’t do with him, the fans just wouldn’t let him fade away. That takes us to the importance of “shifting gears” (32:13); why changing things up from normal patterns is good.
Then, we’ll open up the mailbag (42:45) for Les to share his personal concussion history and how the business treated head injuries in his day, the suspension of Titus O’Neal (45:53) and what is appropriate conduct between wrestler and promoter, and who from today would Les have enjoyed getting into the ring with (69:05). Thanks for listening and have a great weekend~!
