Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Forgettable Wrestlemania Matches

March 1, 2013

Number 8: Bob Backlund vs. Razor Ramon: Wrestlemania IX

Caesar’s Palace was a Wrestlemania that will never be forgotten, unfortunately. With a plethora of bad matches, this one was up there. Backlund and Ramon are very good in ring performers, at this time, and really had a chance to put on a clinic in the ring. At the end of the match you saw multiple botches, missed moves, and an extremely poor outing. You expected so much more out of these guys, but they could not put on a good match if it saved their lives. Backlund would end up losing in under 4 minutes to a small package. The crowd simply was excited it finally ended, as these 4 minutes seemed like an eternity. There was no real beef between these two guys, and it felt like they needed to add a match because later in the night would be even more of a trainwreck.

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.
