Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Wrestling Chants and Slogans

July 26, 2013

Number 9: “U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A”

Hulk Hogan

It is extremely difficult to single out one guy who created this chant because so many superstars used it either in their favor or against it. Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Hulk Hogan were two guys who succeeded so much because of his love for the United States of America. Even now, all heels that are from other countries are abused with a loud and proud U-S-A chant from the crowds in the states. It is a chant that will never die because there will always been a place for it. The chants were never louder than at Smackdown in September of 2001, merely a few days after September 11th happened. I can remember the goosebumps down my arm hearing the chants from the crowd in Houston, Texas. The moment that time stood still and a chant that will never be forgotten.

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.
