Bill Apter is getting a lifetime achievement award at The Wrestling Showcase this September.
Premier Streaming Network issued a press release today regarding Apter receiving their lifetime achievement award later this year.
Premier Streaming Network’s Vice President of Programming and Creative Development, Josh Shernoff, believes no one has contributed to the cause of curating wrestling history more than Bill Apter.
“Premier Streaming Network is dedicated to curating wrestling history, and nobody has contributed more to that cause than Bill Apter,” Josh Shernoff said. “Bill has captured some of the most iconic images and told some of the biggest stories in wrestling history, and he is synonymous with the magazines that educated audiences worldwide about various territories and wrestlers they wouldn’t have otherwise known about.
“Bill Apter has dedicated his entire life to professional wrestling and is beyond deserving of every honor the business has to offer. Personally, I owe a big part of my career to Bill’s guidance and friendship. It’s a huge honor for me to present Bill with the first-ever Premier Streaming Network Lifetime Achievement Award.”
Bill Apter mentored Josh Shernoff earlier in his career and looks forward to accepting this immense honor at The Wrestling Showcase on September 9.
“I am absolutely thrilled that someone I mentored years ago is now one of the leaders at Premier Streaming Network, a company that has achieved remarkable success, doing gangbusters,” Bill Apter said. “Being bestowed with this recognition for my career by Josh and the rest of the team, in the presence of so many wrestling fans in person and a global audience watching live on PSN, is truly an immense honor. I am filled with excitement and can’t wait to be at The Wrestling Showcase.”
Premier Streaming Network’s President Paul Owen believes Bill Apter exemplifies the same passion for professional wrestling they share at PSN.
