Episode 52: Jesse Scott Tribute - Part 2


Listen Later

Jesse Scott was a charismatic, creative, energetic, and powerful positive force in the professional wrestling world. He wrestled for over 2 decades under the names JT Playa, and later, Tiberious King. He was the founder of NEO Wrestling, a company that helped launch the careers of many professional wrestlers who currently wrestle on television for the biggest wrestling companies in the world.

 

On May 7, 2024, at the age of 43, Jesse passed away to a rare form of cancer, which he bravely faced for more than a year.

 

Jesse was a proud husband and father and was a champion for good both in the ring and in life. Jesse will be remembered for his limitless generosity of spirit, inspiring strength, extravagant humour, charismatic wrestling talent, and beautiful devotion to his family.

 

In this 2nd part of this 2-part series of tribute episodes to Jesse Scott, we’ll hear from 7 different friends of Jesse who had a special connection to him in the wrestling world and in his personal life:

 

  • TNA Wrestling star Crazzy Steve
  • Over 20-year wrestling veteran Jake O’Reilly
  • A wrestling personality, wrestler and podcast host for over 30 years, Notorious TID
  • “The Saturday Night Delight… Mr. Young Fit & Stupid Pretty” Tyler Tirva
  • Martial Arts Champion, author, and pro wrestler Jeremy Elliott
  • 25-year veteran pro wrestler & NEO Wrestling business partner of Jesse’s, Primo Scordino
  • Former pro wrestler and the man who started a wrestling school and the first promotion Jesse founded – Fighting Spirit Pro Wrestling – “Big Jess” Jesse Friskey
  •  

    May this tribute episode be a source of healing to those grieving the loss of Jesse. May it be a starting point for those who loved Jesse to continue to share their own Jesse Scott stories so that his legacy will continue to live and grow. And may it be something that his friends and family can always come back to in order to get a glimpse into the amazing legacy Jesse has left behind.
