We have a very history-oriented edition of Wrestling Observer Radio today! We’ve got a very in-depth discussion about the origins of pro-wrestling and mixed martial arts and how, at the turn of the century, they were intricately connected. We’ll look at early shooters, the oldest known pro-wrestling (MMA?) footage, jiu-jitsu, judo and wrestling, and more! Dave also gives a very in-depth history lesson on Vince McMahon’s national expansion, including when people knew trouble was coming, how long it took him to do it, what others thought of his plan, and more. Plus, all the news including thoughts on Raw, Smackdown and Impact, an analysis of last night’s WEC show, and much more! Over an hour of Wrestling Observer Radio to start your week!
