WOR: Marc Raimondi NWO book interview, AEW Dynamite Grand Slam Mexico rating

Posted on by Garrett Gonzales

Dave Meltzer and I, Garrett Gonzales, are back with our Friday edition of Wrestling Observer Radio. We didn’t get to too much that was in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, but you should still give it a read. The reason is because Marc Raimondi, author of the new book Say Hello to the Bad Guys: How Professional Wrestling’s New World Order Changed America, joined us to talk about the nWo era of WCW.

After the interview, Dave and I stuck around and discussed:

  • AEW Dynamite’s Grand Slam Mexico rating
  • UFC’s upcoming TV rights deal
  • Tony Khan’s comments on ratings and WBD
  • How the cable industry has changed since the Monday Night War

Josh Nason’s Punch-Out returns for another new episode with an hour-long conversation with returning guest Marc Raimondi of MMAFighting.com.

On the topic board:

– What’s next for Georges St-Pierre, Rose Namajunas, and TJ Dillashaw following their title victories at UFC 217?

– Is GSP now officially a moneyweight fighter along with Conor McGregor and if so, does that make a clash between them inevitable?

– Is Joanna Non-Champion right about Rose not being able to handle the pressure of being a champion?

– This weekend’s fun-looking UFC Norfolk card which is chock full of crossroads fights (Matt Brown vs. Diego Sanchez, Joe Lauzon vs. Clay Guida), a favorite of yours truly.

– Marc’s experiences at PWG walking around the one and only Dave Meltzer and how he got to be a pro wrestling fan to begin with

– What fights is Marc looking forward to most the rest of 2017? (Spoiler: one is already off due to injury.)
