The Saturday edition of Wrestling Observer Live is on the air with a preview of tonight’s AEW Collision show and a chat with a wrestling author.

I look at tonight’s show that includes Hangman Page vs. Christopher Daniels in a Texas Death Match, Kazuchika Okada defending the Continental title against Tomohiro Ishii, and more.

Then, we transition to a conversation I had with historian, author, and associate producer on the Mickey Rourke movie ‘The Wrestler’ and the documentary ‘350 Days’ Evan Ginsburg. His new book ‘Wrestling Rings, Blackboards and Movie Sets‘ is available now.

He talks about watching hundreds of WWWF/WWF cards at Madison Square Garden (and the Northeast) and how he became an agent for wrestlers like Johnny Valiant, Nikolai Volkoff, and Johnny and Greg Valentine. Evan also shares stories on the making of ‘The Wrestler,’ his opinions on wrestler pay, ticket prices and modern wrestling. If you like history, this is your show.
