Happy 10th episode of Kick Out! This week, we bring you an episode very close to our hearts: a look into the life, career, and legacy of Jumbo Tsuruta. We also discuss the Mitsuharu Misawa/Jumbo Tsuruta feud from early 90’s All Japan and two contemporary feuds in puroresu that you can see Jumbo’s influence on today (NJPW's Kazuchika Okada vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi and DDT's Konosuke Takeshita vs. Jun Akiyama).

Thank you all so much for your support of Kick Out. We couldn’t have gotten this far without your incredibly kind feedback and enthusiasm. Here is to the next ten and another ten after that!
