  • Curtain Jerkers, Episode 10: Jeff Cannonball Talks Deathmatch Wrestling and Aronofsky’s THE WRESTLER

    Before we dive into the episode, have you seen our badass logo? Awesome designer Trais Colton Barhaug rocked that for us and you should go support him now! T-shirts, pins, and stickers are on their way.

    Thanks to Justin’s long time friend, Kwalified, a diehard wrestling fan and dope emcee hailing from Hawaii, for our great intro song.

    On this 10th episode, we kick off with a short story from last episode’s guest, the great Craig Liggeons, then jump into our discussion of the award winning dramatic gem, The Wrestler, and a few matches from the great Deathmatch wrestler Necro Butcher. And, who better to talk a great movie and matches from Necro Butcher than the great Deathmatch wrestler and fellow cinephile, Jeff Cannonball.

    While Justin somehow forgot to hit record at first, the consummate pros Jeff and Doug save his ass with killer conversation about this film and the pair of iconic matches. As a bonus, we dive into one of Jeff’s matches where Necro Butcher himself got involved.

    We also dive into his upcoming role in a horror short called Bronko, directed by indie filmmaker Owen Russell. The indiegogo campaign just wrapped, but follow Jeff and Owen for more info on the film!

    This upcoming weekend of June 24th and 25th feature will two great matches from Jeff for his home turf of H20 Wrestling (run by his good friend Matt Tremont) and his home away from home Blitzkrieg Pro. You’ll be able to watch him wrestle on IWTV if you can’t make it out… and while you’re there, check him out on their original show, The Life of!

    Make sure you follow Jeff on Twitter and Instagram. His soda reviews have become the stuff of legend.

    We’ll be back next month with another great (or not-so-great) movie and more great (or not-so-great) wrestling.

  • Curtain Jerkers, Episode 9: Craig Liggeons VS. Captain Freedom – The Jerks Take on THE RUNNING MAN

    Before we dive into the episode, have you seen our badass logo? Awesome designer Trais Colton Barhaug rocked that for us and you should go support him now! T-shirts, pins, and stickers are on their way.

    Thanks to Justin’s long time friend, Kwalified, a diehard wrestling fan and dope emcee hailing from Hawaii, for our great intro song.

    On this 9th episode of Curtain Jerkers, Doug and Justin are joined by the famed WMMR “Black Listna”, nerdy podcaster, hilarious comedian, diehard wrestling fan, and all around awesome guy Craig Liggeons! If a few references feel a bit outdated, that’s because Justin took 2 extra weeks to post this episode. Call it laziness, call it being busy, or call it whatever you will… he promises he is sorry.

    Along with the aforementioned guest extraordinaire, the Jerks talk the classic Arnold joint The Running Man and a couple “classic” matches from none other than Jesse “The Body” Ventura. The tables have turned from last month where the film wasn’t stellar but the matches were… but you’ll have to listen to hear exactly how these matches and movie went over with the trio of podcasters.

    Make sure you follow Craig on Twitter and Instagram… and check out HIAC Radio and Comic Book Gurus.

    We’ll be back next month with another great (or not-so-great) movie and more great (or not-so-great) wrestling.

    Thanks to Justin’s long time friend, Kwalified, a diehard wrestling fan and dope emcee hailing from Hawaii, for our great intro song.

    On this 8th episode of Curtain Jerkers, Doug and Justin use a bad Shawn Michaels movie and two great matches of his to backdoor their way into a Scott Hall memorial episode. In other words, go watch the two Scott Hall/Shawn Michaels ladder matches and don’t waste your time on the film Avengers of Justice: Farce Wars. Doug and Justin both have high tolerances for bad movies, especially in the independent market… but this one… notsomuch.

    We’ll be back next month with another great (or not-so-great) movie and more great wrestling.

    On this 7th episode of Curtain Jerkers, Doug and Justin talk the Ace, Hiroshi Tanahashi… including matches with Minoru Suzuki and Kota Ibushi, as well as his feature film debut in My Dad is a Heel Wrestler. But before they dig into the Ace’s career, they spend some time on AEW Revolution, the best PPV in quite some time. As per usual, Doug schools Justin… this time, even moreso than usual since Justin know so little about Japanese wrestling.
