On a brand-new Josh Nason’s Punch-Out, I am joined by first-time guest Rich Palladino, a 31-year veteran of ring announcing in the Northeast United States in addition to MLW.
Ring announcers are such a key part of the live show experience and are often overlooked which is why I wanted to have an extended talk with Rich on why he does what he does and why he’s done it for so long.
Some of the topics:
- The unusual way in which he got his first opportunity in the business
- How he got hooked up with MLW and how it’s taking him to places he has never been before
- Working for Paul Heyman as part of ECW’s New England events
- His connections to the many wrestlers seen on national TV every single week
- What it’s like to work a WrestleMania weekend string of shows
- His method going into events and memorization vs. reading cards
- How The Sandman and Bobby Cruise helped change his career
