When I look back at Tag Teams in WWE, I think of Cody Rhodes and Goldust, The Shield and The Real Americans. I have to give credit for Jimmy and Jey Uso for what they have accomplished this year. They have not won the titles, but have consistently gotten better and better in the ring. I wasn't loving them until the past few months because WWE did not give them enough time in matches to showcase the talents that they have. They did not speak much nor get involved with feuds based on their personalities. They performed at high levels and finally got a big chance heading into Survivor Series. They were used in pre-show matches and were consistently picking up important victories from September until now. WWE needed to build the division from the top down. The Uso's will not be in the basement for much longer.

Josh controls most of the creative writing and ideas for the show on a weekly basis, as well as an on-air talent.

Aside from working with WrestleZone, Isenberg began his career in Broadcast Journalism interning at ESPN and worked with CBS Radio for three years. He has also had the opportunity to interview some of the best athletes and performers alive, including Andrew McCutchen, Ben Roethlisberger, Chris Jericho, Billy Gunn, Karl Anderson, Matt Hardy, Steven Strasburg and others.

Currently, Josh Isenberg works for Major League Baseball in their Advanced Media Productions. He grew up in Pittsburgh and went to Point Park University, which is where Chair Shot Reality is filmed each week.

His life outside of his obsession with wrestling include being a savant for Seinfeld, NFL, NBA, MLB and many television shows. He also has an undying love for musicals, which includes many shows he was a part of in high school. Some of his favorite wrestling moments can be linked to such superstars as Edge, The Rock, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels and The Great Khali.
