  1. Thank you Jason for that interview. Man that was a blast from the past. Started out as a WCW fan in the mid to late 90s and for a long time Tony Schiavone was the voice of wrestling for me. Good to see him doing well and having his place in the business.

  2. Even though I was a fan of the WWE during the attitude era, Tony schiavone was a great voice for WCW during that time, and nitro wouldn't of been the same without him. In my opinion, he was just as good as Jim Ross

  3. I like Tony. He's underrated, did a good job with Heenan back in a days. Some would say everyone is good paired with Heenan, but that's not true.

  4. Great interview ! Thank you so much for having Tony on. Truly was the voice of wrestling for me in the 80โ€™s and 90โ€™s.

  5. This was a great interview good job Jason ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

  6. I couldnโ€™t stand Tonyโ€™s commentating style. He always sounded like he was reading off a script
