This week's episode came about thanks to two things: Jim is currently researching loads of wrestling stuff for, you know, reasons, and was fascinated by the rise of 'shoot-style' wrestling in Japan in the 1980s; and as luck would have it, friend of the podcast Craig Michael Hall is one of the people behind Tetsujin, a shoot-style show that is happening in Liverpool on Friday February 9th (tickets from http://tetsujin.bigcartel.com). Craig is the expert, so he gives you wrestlers to check out and a bit more behind a kind of wrestling that has one foot in MMA and the other in pro wrestling.

The wrestler formerly known as Kurtis Chapman joins Bozzers for this week's chinwag. The Keyboard Warrior, proudly blocked on Twitter by Donald Trump, is known for winding up fellow wrestlers on social media, but has he ever taken it too far and got himself into trouble outside of the ring? Have any wrestlers taken their gripes with Mad Kurt into the DMs? Is anyone safe from his poison tweet button? We explore.
Thanks to guest host Scroobius Pip for taking the time to lead the charge on this episode while Bozzers is in recovery. Check out the Distraction Pieces Podcast for more top work from this top bab.

Big Pop Master Special: Fans vs Wrestlers!

On tonight’s episode of Tuesday Night Jaw, Bozzers meets Kevin Blackwood. The independent star explains how a serious road traffic accident nearly ended his wrestling dreams in 2019. Narrowly escaping with his life, he talks about the road to recovery, making his AEW one year on and which big WWE superstar contributed to his rehabilitation fund! Elsewhere, Bozzers sits down for a chinwag with Lucy Cave, who was brought in to help manage Progress Wrestling as it made changes in the wake of the Speaking Out movement. She talks about their road to progress, as well as plans for their first live show… before the year is out!

Elsewhere, Colin takes on the Big Pop Master wrestling quiz. Will he top the table?
And lastly (but certainly not leastly), WWE NXT UK superstar Jinny returns to Tuesday Night Jaw to talk about future plans for the brand - and for the Fashionista! Enjoy!

A Fashionista and an MP walk on to a podcast...

On today's laid-back episode of Tuesday Night Jaw, Bozzers calls Charli Evans in Australia to find out when she'll be returning to Britain and what her hopes are for the future of the industry. There is some swearing... Elsewhere, Bozzers shirks Big Pop Master to play Nintendo instead, trying out the 1994 Super Nintendo game Natsume Championship Wrestling for the first time. Expect more swearing... And there's a preview of WWE NXT UK too ahead of it returning to the Network on Thursday! No swearing!
