Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Intercontinental Champions

October 18, 2012

Number 4: Randy Savage

It was one championship reign that lasted 414 days. “Macho Man” Randy Savage was everything you wanted out of an Intercontinental Champion. When Hulk Hogan was wrestling in matches that lasted 5 minutes, Savage would steal the show with 20 minute showings of excellence. His first IC Championship was captured only 8 months into his career in the WWE. His most memorable match, and one of the best matches of all time, would springboard him into the main event. Savage and Steamboat competed at Wrestlemania 3 and has been one of the greatest competitive bouts in history. He was consistent, charismatic, and important. This title was about pure wrestling, execution, and not about nostalgia.

Josh controls most of the creative writing and ideas for the show on a weekly basis, as well as an on-air talent.
Aside from working with WrestleZone, Isenberg began his career in Broadcast Journalism interning at ESPN and worked with CBS Radio for three years. He has also had the opportunity to interview some of the best athletes and performers alive, including Andrew McCutchen, Ben Roethlisberger, Chris Jericho, Billy Gunn, Karl Anderson, Matt Hardy, Steven Strasburg and others.
Currently, Josh Isenberg works for Major League Baseball in their Advanced Media Productions. He grew up in Pittsburgh and went to Point Park University, which is where Chair Shot Reality is filmed each week.
His life outside of his obsession with wrestling include being a savant for Seinfeld, NFL, NBA, MLB and many television shows. He also has an undying love for musicals, which includes many shows he was a part of in high school. Some of his favorite wrestling moments can be linked to such superstars as Edge, The Rock, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels and The Great Khali.
