Will Brian Tramel

Brian Tramel went to his first wrestling show in August 1978 in Blytheville, Arkansas. It was a Memphis Wrestling spot show. Since then, he’s been a fan ever since. He started in the business as a photographer in 1986 sending photos to Wrestling World and Pro Wrestling Illustrated. Tramel then started a newsletter in the late 1980’s-early 90s called RASSLIN RIOT. It covered tape trading, comedy, and wrestling trips. It was probably more famous for the fun T-shirts it came with than the actual zine.

For example, the “Ultimate Roider” shirt. Subscriber list on that zine was a “who’s who” of current people in wrestling. Brian was also a wrestler for a bit as the BT Express. (He only had about 18 matches). Although, he holds a victory over the infamous “Cowboy” JD McKay. After that, he managed for over five years as “Coach BT.” He was named MSWA Manager of the Year, for two years in a row.

Two of his teams got a tryout for Extreme Championship Wrestling (two days before they went out of business), and a tryout for Power Pro Wrestling as well. Ironically, this happened a week before they went out of business too.

In 2006. He also started a wrestling company called Chaotic Championship Wrestling and promoted shows in Southeast Missouri and Northeast Arkansas. Brian started a blog called Rasslin Riot with a website RASSLINRIOTONLINE.com in 2006 as well. It was a kayfabe site and he was known as “the Dave Meltzer of the Memphis area.” Tramel published five yearbooks during that period of time-based on the website. He closed the site in 2011. He has since re-opened the site back with all the old articles and is now posting all his new podcasts at www.stspod.club.
