The History of Michael Porter's
WrestleShoot
"Michael
Porter's WrestleShoot" was the "brain-child" of Michael Porter and made
it's DEBUT on AM-1410 KMYC in the Marysville/Yuba City, CA. area,
in 2002.
Michael Porter,
as the Host, chose his friend, "Double R" Rick Rockwell as the ORIGINAL
Co-Host of "WrestleShoot", which started out as a 1-Hour show! We aired
on Sunday nights at 8:00PM, which he followed with another 1-Hour
Entertainment show called, "Michael Porter's EntertainmentBeat", in which
Michael would discuss the week's NEWS in the Entertainment
Industry...Movies, Music, Television...EVERYTHING involved in the
Industry!
Then,
as "WrestleShoot"
grew in popularity, Michael decided to drop "EntertainmentBeat" and with
the Owner and Management's PERMISSION, KMYC allowed him to add additional
hour to "WrestleShoot", to bring the areas from Chico, CA. to the North
to Sacramento, CA. to the South, Pro Wrestling NEWS & NOTES...along with
Interviews with MANY BIG-NAME Superstars AND Northern California INDY
Superstars.
Porter
eventually
added a SECOND Co-Host to the show, with the addition of "Wildthing"
Rob Wilds...making the threesome of Michael Porter, "Double R" Rick
Rockwell and "Wildthing" Rob Wilds...the "BEST THREE-WAY DANCE" on
Northern California Radio airwaves!
"WrestleShoot" was
them moved to Saturday afternoons, from 1:00PM-3:00PM, where the show
"picked-up steam" AND listeners, because the earlier timeslot was BEFORE
the night-time "power drop" DECREASED the Station Signal Strength!
As "Michael Porter's
WrestleShoot" once again grew in popularity with listeners and callers,
Michael was given yet ANOTHER hour, making "Michael Porter's WrestleShoot"
a THREE-HOUR, weekly Broadcast, and was moved to Saturday afternoons from
1:00PM-4:00PM!
During the ELEVEN
MONTHS tha "WrestleShoot" was on the air at KMYC, Michael, Rockwell and
Wilds Interviewed MANY Nationally-Known Pro Wrestling Superstars...such
as: "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka, George "the Animal" Steele, "The Living Legend"
Larry Zbyszko, Sensational Sherri Martel, Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling
(G.L.O.W.) Girls, "Lightning" Cheryl Rusa and "Hollywood" from the Tag
Team of "Hollywood & Vine", The Tonga Kid, The Stro, former TNA Tag Team
Champion, "Wildcat" Chris Harris, Big Vito (during his WCW days) and
MORE!
Some of the
better-known Northern California INDY Wrestlers and Personalities
Interviewed INCLUDED...MPT (Mr. Prime Time), Scotty Aboot, TOL (The
Original Legend), James Hate, "WARPATH", "Manager of Champions", Ric
Micheals, Skitzo Mafioso, "Juggolo" Jim Cooley, APW Owner, Roland Alexander
and MANY others!
During this time,
"Double R" Rick Rockwell began facing some TOUGH "personal" issues, and
was forced to remove himself from "WrestleShoot" as a regular Co-Host...but
would still make ocassional Guest AND SURPRISE appearances! This left just
Michael and Rob Wilds to "carry on" without "Double R"! And while the show
continued to THRIVE, it just WASN'T the SAME without Rick Rockwell!
FINALLY...Station
Politics AND "PETTY JEALOUSY" over the SUCCESS of Michael Porter and
"WrestleShoot" took over, and Michael decided that he's had ENOUGH of
all of the BULL***T, and proceded to take "WrestleShoot" off-the-air"
in March of 2003 from AM-1410 KMYC! But, he VOWED that "Michael Porter's
WrestleShoot" WOULD be back...SOMEDAY...SOMETIME...SOMEWHERE "down the
road"!
