David ShoemakerHOST

David ShoemakerHOST
I mean, you could pick Gordon Solie, you could pick...
David ShoemakerHOST
I mean, there's so many of the dudes that I, I grew up, you know, with Dave- with Lance Russell and Dave Brown in Memphis.
David ShoemakerHOST

Shane DouglasGUEST
[rock music] Joey was one of the boys, you know? He's part of the team.
Shane DouglasGUEST
Uh, Joey is hands down, and this is by no means to take anything away from Gordon Solie or Jim Ross, uh- You know, any of the, any of the announcers from over all the years.
Shane DouglasGUEST
Joey Styles is hands down the best pure announcer in wrestling.
Shane DouglasGUEST
And when I say that, if you go back and you look at the differences, uh, again, I've all the props for all those guys I mentioned, and, uh, you know, but they had a quality that Joey didn't have.

Uh, until, uh, Gordon Solie brought Piper in, Roddy Piper, in 1982.

Flair being the bigger man admits that, "Hey, Leroy, you beat me." And as an apology, Flair brings with him two, count 'em, two wrapped gifts for Leroy Brown.
Ray RussellHOST
Flair states that, "I mocked your clothes in the past, your background, your lifestyle." But Ric, looking to make amends, offers these gifts as a sign of respect.
Ray RussellHOST
Leroy appears to be more than trepidatious, uh, but Gordon Solie feels that Ric Flair is being sincere.

I mean, even Gordon Solie mentions that during one of the, one of these interviews that Putski has never been in Georgia before.
Jamie WardGUEST
