🎙️ Obscurities | Volume 1: Ray Glenn, Johnny Heideman & The Cuban Assassin

In professional wrestling, the spotlight decides who gets remembered—and who fades into the shadows.
But what about the wrestlers who came and went, leaving behind little more than match results and half-remembered promos?

Welcome to the pilot episode of Obscurities: Forgotten, Brief, and Barely Remembered, the podcast that dusts off the lost names of Portland Wrestling and gives them the recognition they never got—until now.

In Volume 1, host Frank Culbertson dives into the stories of three men who walked the aisle at the Portland Sports Arena... but never stayed long:

• 🇬🇧 Ray Glenn – The dependable British journeyman who never made headlines but made everyone else look good.

• 🛠️ Johnny Heideman – The 28-year veteran who never won a title, but never stopped wrestling.

• 🐺 The Cuban Assassin (Angel Acevedo) – A wild-eyed villain who scorched through Portland in January of 1985… and then vanished.

Whether you're a hardcore Pacific Northwest wrestling historian or just love a good underdog story, this series pulls the curtain back on the men who made the stars look like stars.
