This week John McAdam and Sean Goodwin are joined by popular guest Thomas Bane as we present Part Two of our look back at the 1979 \u201cApter Mags\u201d awards as published in the Spring 1980 Sports Review Wrestling magazine. This was the last year before the awards were permanently moved to Pro Wrestling Illustrated.<\/p>\n

–Did they get it right by naming Greg Valentine as Most Hated Wrestler?
\n–Comeback Wrestler of the Year did not yet exist, but who would have gotten it?
\n–Who was the Most Improved Wrestler by Apter Mag standards?
\n–How did a guy who finished third in the Rookie of the Year balloting in 1977 actually win it in 1979?
\n–Arnold Skaaland as Manager of the Year? If you say so.
\n–Of course, we take Inspirational Wrestler of the Year as seriously as one can.<\/p>\n

There’s more as we reflect on the career of Junkyard Dog, and we take a look at Starrcade ’89. What are you waiting for? DOWNLOAD AND LISTEN TO THIS BAD BOY!<\/p>\n
