Actor and former WCW world champion David Arquette joins Brian Campbell for an in-depth look at his love affair with professional wrestling and the reasons why he has decided to return to the squared circle at age 47. The former "Scream" and "Ready to Rumble" star paints a redemptive narrative regarding his hope of removing his name as a sports entertainment punchline and gaining the respect of fans and wrestlers. Arquette discusses who actually killed WCW (5:40), how he has dealt with fan criticism following his title run (8:22), drawing heat in the WCW locker room (13:29), the physical cost of returning to the ring (21:14) and the best moments from his career (31:40). Plus, Arquette cuts short promos on Cody Rhodes, Nicholas and Bully Ray (16:53). After the interview, co-host Adam Silverstein drops by with his reaction as the guys remember where WCW was at the time of Arquette's reign and whether the actor's return should be taken seriously.
