About this listen

The world of professional wrestling is unlike any other. It's a communion between these larger-than-life heroes and villains (babyfaces and heels) and the fans who support them. Andrew and Ryan (obviously fans) will attempt to bridge the gap between wrestlers and fans, talking about something they not only grew up loving, but love even more today. Whether it's the history of wrestlers and companies, reviews of events and matches, interviews with wrestlers and promoters, the latest news, or just a good 'ol fashioned debate...


It all takes place SOMEWHERE IN THE RING!
