December 5, 2013

Number 5: Seth Rollins

One of my favorite young guys this year has been Seth Rollins. There has not been one instance in the ring where I thought that he was overrated and did not belong. Rollins picked up the tag titles this year and really gave us meaning behind them. He was the perfect compliment for Roman Reigns, a guy who is built on power. Rollins carried some of the best matches this year, including an incredible bout on Raw versus Daniel Bryan. This guy belongs where he is at. I am not sure if he is going to be pushed to the very top, but this was a year that he shined and made his name really important.

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.
