NWA Wrestling's Pretty Boy Smooth pulls into the Krazy Train and Jasmin St. Claire wastes absolutely no time getting to what makes this man tick — because the Urban Playboy persona is sharp, the in-ring work is undeniable, and the story behind how a kid from Hempstead, New York went from college basketball at Hofstra to Mercyhurst to sitting ringside at a local indie show and deciding he wanted to be a wrestler instead of a referee is exactly the kind of origin story this podcast was built for. Smooth breaks down his training under multiple coaches including EC3 — who brought him directly into the NWA — the locker room culture that makes the NWA different, the move to Comet TV and what that platform means for the promotion's reach, and how a nickname he carried in real life became the Urban Playboy character that's turning heads on national television.
