WOR: Hall of Fame, the UK scene, All Elite, and more
Wrestling Observer Radio with Dave Meltzer and myself, guest co-host Garrett Gonzales, is back for a Friday night edition of he show.
Joining us is Will Cooling from Fighting Spirit Magazine.
We first discuss the Wrestling Observer Hall Of Fame, looking at who made it and who didn’t. We go over Kenny Omega as a candidate, look at some of the Mexican wrestlers who have a good shot to go in next year, as well as other wrestlers who are on the fringe. (Yes, we also talk about Big Daddy.)
The conversation then moves on to UK wrestlers who could be up for bigger things, like new ROH signee Mark Haskins, and the UK scene at large including TV.
