Wrestling Is Gross

What is the strongest piece of wood in the world? Is that SMW referee Mark Curtis or Academy Award nominee William H. Macy? What if we shrunk down Jim Cornette and put him in a little jar? All this plus so much more!

We're joined again by dearest Micha to celebrate Halloween and discuss her favorite wrestler in the world, Vampiro. The runtime isn't the only thing scary about this episode folks! ☠️☠️☠️ (We lost a big chunk of this episode from the first half but recovered nicely in the second half. If you can believe it, this episode was even longer! Thanks for listening!)

The first of two parts. This time, we discuss Jay Briscoe's career as a singles wrestler, his legendary matches with his brother, and his role as a load-bearing pillar for Ring of Honor's entire history. A really nice show!

Give to DEAN~!'s Gofundme, to help his family in their time of need. It's very possible that this show wouldn't exist without DEAN's architecture in shaping the modern wrestling fandom. He begat that which begat this and that and so on and so forth. His influence cannot be overstated, and he will be missed by so many of us.
