Johnny Rodz
Back when territories existed and "TVs" were recorded 3 weeks at a time, jobbers were critical to wrestling in the NorthEast. The competitive TV
matches were saved for tag team (title changes) or heel/face turns. One of the best jobbers was HOF Johnny Rodz.
When MSG matches were televised it was interesting to see Rodz, A four minute loser, having competitive matches, and occasionally beating someone
causing you to wonder WTF. How could someone who Always looses go 20 minutes with XXX? YOUTUBE Rodz v. Rick McGraw and watch him disgustedly work
with and try to make look good a drugged out star. He was as good as it gets at getting people over.
OK, that's the set up. Here's a 2016 look at the Unpredicatble one.
