Portland Wrestlecast: ‘Excitement in the Air’ author Mike Rodgers returns

Portland Wrestlecast: ‘Excitement in the Air’ author Mike Rodgers returns

The Pacific Northwest wrestling expert talks to Jim Valley about more Portland wrestling stories.

The Portland Wrestlecast returns with part two of our conversation with author and historian Mike Rodgers. 

We talk about some of the famous wrestlers that worked in Portland like Greg Valentine and Bobby Shane, and the incredible rib Dutch Savage and Lonnie Mayne pulled on Mr. Fuji.

Mike and I discuss how The Grappler pulled the territory out of its mid-80s slump, the origins of Ed Wiskowski’s gimmick before he was Col. DeBeers, the infamous apartments where generations of wrestlers stayed, The Bomber, and was Portland a party territory?

Consider picking up one, or all, of his books for the holiday season.
