Struggling With Sozio

Ace is a great old friend of mine from back in the early 00's. We trained at the CZW Academy, traveled together and would later form the mafioso pro wrestling faction known as "The Front." Listen as we catch up, talk current events and recap the time he got shot in the back!

Nick Papagiorgio has been a referee in the great sport of Pro Wrestling for nearly 15 years. He's been as close to the action as you can get but has found out the hard way, sometimes you can get too close! Nick has worked with a ton of names in the business as well as many who would later become names. He's witnessed injuries, bloody brawls, death-defying acrobatics, unruly crowds and some of the most entertaining moments in wrestling history. We discuss some of his memories here.

Bill Posada aka "Joker" is the best kind of person. He's a genuinely great guy who will always have your back and violently harm anyone that tries to hurt you. A legendary pro wrestler in the tristate area, military veteran, father and savage, Bill joins me to talk about his desire to come back to performing in the ring. We also chat a bit about his time in the military and the effect it had on him then and now.
