JNPO: John Pollock on POST Wrestling’s fifth anniversary

Posted on by Josh Nason

Nearly five years ago, John Pollock was a guest on Josh Nason’s Punch-Out just days after he and Wai Ting’s POST Wrestling launched. 

As he and Wai prepare for their fifth anniversary party on Saturday afternoon in Newark, New Jersey, prior to AEW Full Gear, I invited John back to talk about what the duo has learned over the past five years and where they hope to be in the next five.

We talked about how the company managed through the pandemic, their expansion of talent and doing different shows, and how his friend and business partner has grown through the process.

We also chat about his experience at Dynamite and Rampage in Toronto and details about Saturday’s live event.

Left My Wallet: POST Wrestling’s John Pollock on Toronto sports, WrestleMania

Posted on by Antonio Garza

‘Left My Wallet’ is back with POST Wrestling and former Live Audio Wrestling co-host John Pollock.

Many subscribers to the site know John from his work with Wai-Ting for years on the LAW’s Review-A-Wai and various other shows, and now he joins me to talk about the burgeoning Toronto sports scene, his WrestleMania week, POST Wrestling, and so much more.

John talks about the precipitous fall over the last few years of the Toronto Blue Jays, why the team went from a contender to a cellar dweller, his thoughts on Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the Rogers Centre and network, and more.

We then break down some of the NHL playoffs including the Columbus Blue Jackets’ stunning series upset over the Tampa Bay Lightning, the frustrating playoff history of his Toronto Maple Leafs, their lack of success against the Bruins, and which team he thinks might come out of the East.

We round out our Toronto sports talk with the city’s hottest franchise, the Toronto Raptors. John tells of his memories going to games in their inaugural season, his love of Damon Stoudamire, their huge upset of Jordan and the ’96 Bulls, Vince Carter, what the city thinks of Kawhi Leonard, and their playoff outlook.

Finally, John talks about his WrestleMania week in NYC, his highlights, a chance meeting with Ric Flair, he and Wai’s journey to Bloodsport, and much more!

It’s a fun and enjoyable hour with one of Canada’s foremost wrestling journalists and a great friend to the site.

JNPO: Inside the launch of POST Wrestling

Posted on by Josh Nason

For years, John Pollock and Wai Ting were known to wrestling fans for their work on Live Audio Wrestling, The Fight Network, and a popular podcast series that reviewed weekly wrestling shows.

In late-October, the two were laid off from The Fight Network but instead of folding into corporate life and podcasting as a hobby, the two developed POST Wrestling over the past two months, part free and part funded by Patreon — now with over 800 people funding their operation at a minimum of $6/head.

On the latest Josh Nason’s Punch-Out, Pollock answers all the questions you have about the story behind the launch, the decision to enter into the paid content realm, whether the LAW show will come back in their new endeavor, whether he’ll cover MMA, and plenty more.

Then, the guys talk for about 15-20 minutes about MMA going into 2018 and some high-level thoughts about Saturday’s UFC 219 show.

It’s the final JNPO of 2017 and it’s free for you to listen to. Happy New Year!
