Jack Reynolds (broadcaster)

Jack Reynolds (1937 – October 16, 2008), born Joseph James Rizzo,[2] was an American broadcaster from Cleveland, Ohio, who was better known outside of his hometown as a professional wrestling announcer.

He also worked alongside Pedro Martinez's son Ron announcing for the Buffalo, NY-based National Wrestling Federation.

This experience had apparently served him well, as Reynolds joined the World Wrestling Federation's broadcast team in September 1984.

Reynolds and Ventura were also the original hosts of WWF Prime Time Wrestling when it debuted in January 1985 on the USA Network.

Reynolds stuck around as a fill-in announcer before calling one last show in Detroit for the WWF in April 1986 alongside Ken Resnick.
