top ten rising stars

The past few months have been very telling in WWE. With Cena, Orton, Bryan, Show and Punk working the main event status, there was not much room for others. Well, enter Luke Harper. I never saw his work in the Indy's as Brodie Lee. This guy was fresh and brand new to me. Justin LaBar called it when saying he was going to be something special. The size he has isn't too big, but it is perfect for all types of performers to work with him. What really impresses me is his maturity in the ring. He also has a great knowledge of building his character in small doses. Luke Harper has a HUGE upside and rose being a guy that worked main events in consecutive weeks with CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.

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.
