As someone who was pretty much out of the game for many years, Chandler McClure resurrected his wrestling career in 2025 and now is an integral part of POWW Entertainment. McClure joined Windy City Slam for the first time to discuss his comeback, his role alongside Will Emory, his rivalry with Mason Percs, the quirky POWW Championship match he will be involved in at Summer Xplosion, his friendship with Eric Priest and time with working with him at IWA Mid-South and the early years of AAW Pro, his brief re-emergence at Kaiju Attack Wrestling several years ago and more. Plus, Mike gives opinions on the battle of El Grande Americanos and WWE Clash In Italy, recaps highlights from 2econd Wrestling and previews shows from POWW, Warrior Wrestling and GALLI Lucha Libre.
