GREENFIELD, Indiana, May 6, 2024 - With the recent release
of his autobiography Sitting Ringside, Volume 1, respected
and fan favorite ring announcer David Penzer sat down with
WU Online's Michael Weaver, Jr. for a nearly one-hour
exclusive interview. Mr. Penzer spoke on a variety of
topics.
Here are some highlights from the nearly one-hour exclusive
interview:
DAVID PENZER ON BECOMING A RING ANNOUNCER FOR WCW...
I'd like to say that I won by default, cause I was already
going up there every week anyway and doing stuff. It was
terrifying going out there because, I kept telling everybody
that I was a ring announcer and if I couldn't do what I said
what I could, all this driving up every week, for booking
fees and stuff, didn't make sense.
DAVID PENZER ON IF THERE WERE PLANS ON HIM JOINING THE WWF
AFTER WCW WAS PURCHASED IN 2001...
I did meet with Jim Ross, after the company was sold, in a
hotel in Marietta. He did say at the time the plan was for
WCW to be a separate brand and if and when it became that,
if they went forward with that, they wanted me to be the
ring announcer.
THE FIRST THING THAT COMES TO MIND WHEN DAVID HEARS THE NAME
"VINCE RUSSO"...
Not good at what he did. That's nothing personal.
For an hour, Mr. Penzer talked openly and candidly about
World Championship Wrestling, The Monday Night Wars, Vince
McMahon, and a lot more. You can watch the entire interview
