Got Till Five

It almost feels like a return to form in 2019. With our first interview of the new year we spoke to the one and only 'Mouth of the Midlands' Colin Russell-Ames who has had the pleasure and privilege of announcing many great wrestlers to the ring and also commentating on their matches. We discuss how he got in to the role, his favourite moments and of course that long David Starr introduction. It was then on to our top five which this week was selected by the Got Till Five audience, serendipitously they voted for 'Top Five Commentators' so we deliberated and picked our favourite voices from behind the announce table. There are a fair few surprises in the list and some interesting facts about some announcer favourites which we hope will educate and entertain.

It's Top Five time!! Before the joys of the top five though, Max sat down with the one and only Spike Trivet, talking about his history with wrestling, his favourite moments and then we subjected him to doing a top five of his own. The top five this week had many inspirations from the world of wrestling, this gave Max & Jesse the idea to do the top five most iconic entrances. These will not be the standard entrances but entrances that led to great moments or matches and were just generally unique.
