Show Notes
Shane and the Feral Horse Boy Morro are back in the Gorilla Room for the podcast built around one question: who changed professional wrestling?
Following the incredible Will Ospreay vs Kenny Omega match at All In and the latest NJPW classic between Yuma Uemura and Oiwa, the lads look at the wrestlers, matches and companies that pushed wrestling in new directions — for better or worse.
From Tiger Mask and the evolution of Japanese wrestling, to ECW, the nWo, WWF, Hulk Hogan, Vince McMahon, Vince Russo and plenty more, Shane and Morro look at the people who set the trends that everyone else eventually followed.
What makes someone a genuine trendsetter? Does changing wrestling always mean improving it? And which ideas completely changed the industry — even when they weren't necessarily good for it?
This is a podcast about the evolution of professional wrestling, the people responsible for it, and the moments that changed what wrestling could be.
