The 69 Minute Eargasm with Joel Gertner

Johnny Rodz, born on May 16, 1938, in Brooklyn, New York, is a retired professional wrestler and esteemed trainer. Known as "The Unpredictable," Rodz made his mark in the 1960s and 1970s, primarily wrestling for the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF), now WWE. Although he often played the role of a "jobber," putting over other talent, Rodz earned respect for his technical skill and in-ring psychology. After retiring from active competition, he became a legendary trainer, mentoring future stars like the Dudley Boyz and Tazz at his wrestling school, the World of Unpredictable Wrestling. In 1996, Johnny Rodz was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy in the wrestling industry.

Alone in the basement

Hey everybody! For this episode we talk to ABBS! Most known for his work in the Northeast US for promotions such as Camp Leapfrog, Blitzkrieg! Pro, Invictus, Wrestlers' Lab, Pro Wrestling Magic, and Wrestle Association HEARTSTRONG Gumi. ABBS tells us how he was a late bloomer when it came to discovering wrestling and a surprising name comes when he says who caught his eye and kept him watching. He then tells us about his love of World of Sport and how his wrestling world grew. What made him decide that he wanted to be a wrestler. What his first years were like training under Johnny Rodz. What made him decide to pursue a chance with other independent promotions. Where the idea for ABBS came from. How he has been revived by the wrestling community and what some of his best memories are so far along with his goals for the future. Then as always the random questions which this week has us discussing the question of what defines seafood as seafood. ABBS is easily one of the sweetest and nicest people that I've met in wrestling. While his gimmick isn't always warmly welcomed by those within wrestling, ABBS love for wrestling is true and he always gives his all. Something we can all respect. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/aloneinthebasement/message

Wrestling With The Future
WWE HALL F FAMER POLISH POWER IVAN PUTSKI

"POLISH  POWER"Ivan Putski-(Jozef Bednarski)   Ivan Putski is a former professional wrestler and bodybuilder, best known by the nicknames "The Polish Hammer" and "Polish Power". Putski is a former WWF World Tag Team Champion with Tito Santana. He had a notable feud with Superstar Billy Graham over the WWF Championship, which led to many pose-downs, arm wrestling bouts, and long matches between the two. Other rivals included The Iron Sheik, Ivan Koloff, and Jesse Ventura, who would refer to Putski as "Puduski" when commentating for the WWF. Putski was the first Polish wrestler to perform in the WWF (now WWE). Putski wrestled his last match for NWA New Jersey as he defeated King Kong Bundy by disqualification on February 27, 1999. Early career (1968–1974) Putski won the NWA Texas Tag Team Championship with Jose Lothario twice in 1973.[1] Putski was a fixture on the Dallas-Ft. Worth wrestling scene and was one of its most popular personalities. He was routinely the feature act at The Sportatorium, a wrestling-only arena in an industrial section near Downtown Dallas. Putski's act consisted of being a happy-go-lucky, often aloof buffoon, who would "miraculously" pin his opponent. Putski was often introduced as a former concentration camp survivor, only adding to his sympathetic appeal to audiences of all ages. In mid-1974, Putski worked with the American Wrestling Association.[1] It his time in the AWA that Putski also first clashed with Superstar Billy Graham. Prior to leaving the AWA, Ivan dropped most of his weight by getting into bodybuilding. Ivan kept himself fairly trim at the 215 - 220 pound mark. World (Wide) Wrestling Federation (1974–1987) Putski debuted in the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) in 1974.[2] While in the WWWF, Putski feuded with many wrestlers, including Bruiser Brody, Stan Hansen and Ivan Koloff.[2] On June 25, 1976 at Showdown at Shea, Putski defeated Baron Mikel Scicluna.[1][5] Four years later on August 9, Putski was again victorious at the next Showdown at Shea, defeating Johnny Rodz.[1] He also resumed his feud with Superstar Billy Graham. On October 22, 1979, Putski teamed with a young rookie Tito Santana to defeat Johnny and Jerry Valiant to win the WWF World Tag Team Championship.[1] They held the title for six months before losing it to The Wild Samoans.[2] Putski worked in the renamed World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in the 1980s, primarily feuding with Roddy Piper and Sgt. Slaughter. He took a hiatus from wrestling in 1986. He soon returned to the independent circuit, also making occasional appearances in the WWF as a jobber to the stars. His last high-profile feud was in 1984 with Jesse Ventura. His final appearance was in 1987 teaming on television with Junkyard Dog and Superstar Billy Graham in tag team matches. He then retired from the sport. Other promotions (1981–1986) He began to slow down his career in the 1980s.[2] He won his last tag team championship in May 1981, teaming with Wahoo McDaniel to defeat Dory Funk, Jr. and Larry Lane for the SWCW World Tag Team Championship.[1] In November 1985, Randy Savage defeated Ivan Putski in the opening round of the Wrestling Classic.[1] Return to Wrestling (1991-1992) After his run in the WWF, several promotions, and his semi-retirement, Putski returned to the ring in 1991. Putski made an appearance for International World Class Championship Wrestling teaming with his son, Scott to defeat the Masked Iraqis. Also made an appearance for Global Wrestling Federation in 1992 teaming with Gary Young against Tom and Mike Davis in a no contest. Return to WWF (1995, 1997) In 1995, Putski was inducted into the WWF Hall of Fame class of 1995 by his son, Scott.[2] The father-and-son team returned in July 1997 to defeat Jerry Lawler and Brian Christopher on Raw is War, in what would be Putski's final match. International Championship Wrestling (1996) In 1996, he joined International Championship Wrestling, as a face. He won several matches in the company, and he was billed as a tough guy.
