Ever wondered what really happens behind the wrestling curtain? Wrestling legend Teddy Long doesn't hold back in this candid, revealing conversation that tackles everything from industry drama to personal preferences.

The episode kicks off with shocking revelations about Linda Hogan's emotional public breakdown, where she disclosed an eight-year estrangement from her daughter Brooke and called her ex-husband Hulk "a complete liar and sex addict." Teddy offers his unfiltered take on bringing personal family issues into the public eye, setting the tone for an honest conversation about wrestling's reality.

Things get particularly fascinating when Teddy shares stories about backstage pranks or "ribs" that crossed the line from funny to downright malicious. From Roddy Piper soaking someone's gear to prevent them from performing to a particularly nasty prank intended for Mark Henry that could have ended badly, these tales illuminate the sometimes toxic environment wrestlers navigated. As Teddy poignantly states, "In this business, you have no friends" – a sobering glimpse into the wrestling world's harsh realities.

The conversation shifts to wrestling history with reflections on WCW's final days and why the subsequent "Invasion" angle fell short of expectations. Teddy provides unique insider perspective on current industry developments including Saraya's AEW departure and the evolution of tag team wrestling. Between these substantial discussions, lighthearted moments emerge – from shared Krispy Kreme donut obsessions to Teddy's hilariously direct answer about what he looks for in women ("big booty").
