December 22, 2010

Right After Wrestling with Arda Ocal and Jimmy Korderas welcomed "The Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan to the show. Highlights:

– Who is the biggest draw in pro wrestling history?

– The life of a booker: is it a thankless job?

– Comparing body types of pro wrestling 20 years ago vs today

– What makes a successful pro wrestler?

– Who strikes his eye in pro wrestling today?

EXCERPT: "Being a booker was a thankless job. When things go right, it’s the talent. When things go wrong, it’s your fault. The boys always came to me with ideas.. but it was always ideas for themselves. Not once did any wrestler come to me with an idea for someone else."
