WrestleZone’s Top 10: WWE Authority Figures

May 17, 2012

Number 7: William Regal: August 2007-May 2008

William Regal

He had the knowledge of the product, as well as the excellent comedic relief needed from an authority figure. I was a huge fan of William Regal’s short reign as the leader of Monday Night Raw. After winning the battle royal, Regal would take his reign at the top. What was great is that Regal implemented Game Shows on Raw. Typically, I would hate wasted time for comedy features, but this one worked. Regal was able to give the crowd much more entertainment through these, much better than the Guest Host gimmick or even musical appearances that we have been accustomed to. He did something different, and I enjoyed it. Regal also was able to implement himself in feuds with Triple H and Ric Flair. He was in the prime of his career from an entertainment aspect. Regal is widely loved by people because of how great of a person he is in and out of the ring. It shined here for a brief moment.

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.
