The Armchair Bookers Podcast - A Wrestling Podcast

Wrestling is all about crafted fictional storylines based in the kayfabe world of each promotion.  What happens when wrestling promotions take real life storylines, relationships, and traits of wrestlers and use these for storylines?  How far is too far and tasteless?  We talk about storylines, past and present, and discuss if the real lives of the wrestlers made storyline were just right or hit a little too close to the bone.  Music by John Kiernan.
