On the second episode, we the explore fighting for your life in a prison cell, doing pure, uncut cocaine before strenuous physical activity, and what it's like to be an anime, more specifically Dragonball character, brought to life. We also learn how to pronounce the Spanish word "deshuesadero". (The first S may or may not be silent.) We face more technical difficulties, fight away sleeplessness and delirium, and one of the hosts gets slightly too drunk. All this and more, on this week's Wrestling Is Gross.

On the inaugural episode of Wrestling Is Gross, we explore death and dying, art and non-art, beauty and filth. We face technical difficulties, conceptual confusion, and at least one of the two hosts had to pee really bad for the last 20 minutes. This is the podcast that had to happen, not because we wanted to do it, but because we needed to do it. Call the cops. I dare you.

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.

Madusa vs. Akira Hokuto (WCW, 6/15/97)

Monster Jam Freestyle World Finals 2002

We're joined again by dear friend JR Goldberg, who curated a playlist of Ring of Honor's bloody and melodramatic 2007 for the show. Fuck, Marry, Kill: Delirious, Colt Cabana, Takeshi Morishima?

This episode was recorded 2½ months ago and then we stopped making this podcast for awhile. We appreciate those who stuck with us and hope to get things back on track (whatever track there was) soon!

Jimmy Jacobs vs. Colt Cabana (ROH 2/24/07)
No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards, Rocky Romero & Roderick Strong) & Matt Sydal vs. The Resilience (Austin Aries, Erick Stevens & Matt Cross) & Delirious (ROH 8/11/07)
Takeshi Morishima vs. Bryan Danielson (ROH 8/25/07)
The Briscoes vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico (ROH 9/15/07)

Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, follow us on Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, and send us an email at wrestlingisgross@gmail.com and tell us something really weird! 

Finally, it's the Chri$ Ca$h episode! We do it all in this one. We do Eric Gargiulo impressions, ponder the early days of the CZW Dojo, and litigate rapping your music during your entrance. Don't do it folks!

Gerald Brisco vs. Pat Patterson (King of the Ring 6/25/00)

On today's show, we look back fondly on April 2000, a blissful time when nothing really mattered at all. Perry Saturn's trademark weird skin color, the big hooks from the Backlash set, Pat Patterson's shit-stained undies, and more!

Recorded partially outside, I apologize for any audio issues. I'm sure it's not as bad as I think.
