Gabe Sapolsky

Ring of Honor closes out their first year with Final Battle on December 28, 2002 at the Murphy Recreational Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The WWE has historically integrated competing wrestling organizations into its global machine. It’s not a longshot to assume that TNA Impact will eventually fall under the WWE umbrella. And in the spirit of the Guest Booker series, we ask “what if?”, as we have Kevin Sullivan and Gabe Sapolsky take the hypothetical spot in booking the newly acquired TNA, for Vince and the WWE. Sullivan brings to the table a pedigree of booking knowledge that extends back to his mentors Vince J. McMahon and Eddie Graham. Gabe Sapolsky learned under Paul Heyman, who was a student of Kevin’s. Now, they must sit down together and use the tools of their generation to make a TNA Impact takeover work well for wrestling’s biggest federation. Can two different schools of thought retain mutual respect and produce a product that is consistent and interesting? We will find out as Gabe and Kevin open up their heads and sort through the rosters, angles, and champions in Guest Booker!

IT’S JUNE 2006 AND ECW WILL BE RAMPING UP AGAIN. WITH ONE EXCEPTION…GABE. Vince buys it. Gabe books it. That’s how it will go in this installment of the critically acclaimed series, Guest Booker. Gabe Sapolsky, three-time Wrestling Observer booker of the year and booker of Ring of Honor, joins us in our booking experiment. Gabe’s task is to take over ECW for Vince in June 2006, and book the remainder of the year up to and including the December to Dismember pay-per-view. Gabe steps from the shadows for the first time and applies his booking philosophies to the new ECW!
