Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Misused Wrestlers

May 10, 2013

6. Cody Rhodes

I really think Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow should be pushed heavily as a tag team. Rhodes was so good at making a name for himself with Ted DiBiase and now can continue to do so. Instead, he is jobbing week after week to midcard guys. He loses to Kofi Kingston, loses to Tons of Funk, and now is stuck. Cody may have a generic look because he is not covered in tattoos, but he is a guy who is extremely talented. I love his ability to switch from an athletic superstar to a ground and pound guy. He has a nice balance and is continuing to put in hard work and dedication. He should already have been a world champion by now. At the least, he should have been tag champions in Rhodes Scholars. Instead, WWE is wasting a future guy in Rhodes simply because they are falling in love with dancing gimmicks.

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.
