WrestleZone’s Top 10: What We Learned From Night of Champions

Number 5: The World Heavyweight Championship is Meaningless

Alberto Del Rio

Yes, you read that right. Alberto Del Rio vs. Rob Van Dam was a great match. I enjoyed the offense and the speed that both men were able to work at. At the end of the match, WWE basically told the fans “this title means nothing.” Rob Van Dam does not need a championship. Alberto Del Rio is the most bland and boring ( in terms of mic skills and emotion) that WWE has ever had. If they really cared about the World Heavyweight Championship, they would have bigger names involved. Guys like The Miz, Dolph Ziggler, Big Show, Mark Henry, and others are more of a draw than the current champion. This title is used to put on a good match, not a good story outside of the match. This is the new Intercontinental Championship. This is the title that sounds important, but really isn’t.

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.
