Wrestling Observer Radio with Dave Meltzer and myself, guest co-host Garrett Gonzales, is back with a special show on Dick Beyer. Joining us is many time Wrestling Observer Award winner and former WCW and TNA announcer Mike Tenay.

We talk a ton about all the great memories of Dick as The Destroyer, as well as his historical importance to the wrestling business. We go over how Dick became Mike’s favorite wrestler as a child and how they became great friends later in life.

We discuss the cultural impact of Beyer’s matches with Rikidozan, including where he was when Rikidozan was murdered. Plus, Dave and Mike trade a ton more stories and memories.
