GRAPPL Spotlight

In the pilot episode of The Business with Matty Edwards on GRAPPL Patreon last week, Benno sat down with the one and only Matty to get his thoughts on the world of wrestling from the last month - from Edge, 20 Years of Randy Orton and Roman Reigns to Impact Rebellion, FTLOW, some miscellaneous AEW thoughts and some retro ECW, we talked everything Matty has a strong opinion on this month (also including the food in Benno's cupboards, takeaways, the 2000's rap IWC and more).

Let us know on Twitter what you think and what you want to hear more of from Matty on GRAPPL!
