To most, WWE is your only exposure to pro-wrestling, but did you know up until 30 years ago, pro-wrestling was more like the Mafia than a sports league? Did you know that in the 80’s, while wrestling presented a show literally designed for children, that behind the curtain was the most Rated R, sexual, drug addled, sexified, violent, and cutthroat world imaginable? It was a sex, drugs, and muscles world while a nationwide SUCCESSION-like corporate war for national supremacy waged. In this crazy world of 80’s wrestling, ALL these things happened: A wrestler bit a man’s nose off in a bar, a promoter offered a rival’s wrestler $500k to jump leagues with the rival’s title belt, wrestlers were killed for gambling debt with the Mafia, arch-enemies in the ring arrested for drugs WITH each other, a Hollywood actor was slapped on a late night talk show, wrestlers tried to form a union, a wrestler broke his back in an airplane crash to become the greatest wrestler ever, backstage brawls with guys almost killing each other with scissors, guys wrestling a match while an orchestra played music to match the action, a Black wrestler given the character of an African savage animal, a legendary wrestler pulled a ‘57 Magnum on the most famous wrestler in the world, while a fan held off a group of bad guy wrestlers at gunpoint at ringside, and wrestlers were given World title reigns in exchange for sex! These are just some of the building blocks of KINGS OF THE RING, a fictional soap opera that re-creates all the crazy, unbelievable, and outrageous tales of the real world of 80’s wrestling! In the 1980’s, anything went and wrestlers lived a life much wilder than the hardest partying rock stars, because fans then believed that wrestling was 100% real, and the wrestlers went to incredible lengths to protect this illusion. Often at the cost of their own souls... The characters will seem familiar to you, but never exactly the same as real people, and the stories will blow your mind, as you listen knowing that everything is based on the truth! It’s wrestling... it’s the 1980’s ... it’s sex, drugs, and muscles, baby... welcome to the Kings of the Ring.

mardi 21 août 2018 • Duration 51:15

It's 1984, and the death of industry titan Jonathan Cain, quietly sets in motion the events that will change the sport forever ...

This is the Kings of the Ring. Wrestling’s 1st Audio Drama Podcast. A fictional re-telling of the 1980’s wrestling wars, written and produced like a cable TV drama series.

A gathering of all the greatest stories, tall tales, rumors, and even what if’s, of the behind the scenes world of professional wrestling, all modified, re-arranged and re-assembled in the context of one GIGANTIC fictional pro-wrestling soap opera,

Again, while the characters are fictional (though based on archetypes) many of the events, no matter how unbelievable or outrageous, are based on a version of something that actually happened in the wild and crazy world of professional wrestling. So please kids, DO NOT try any of this at home!

Kings of the Ring is intended for Mature Audiences, and today’s episode would be rated MA for profanity, drug and alcohol use, sexual dialogue, nudity, sexual situations, smoking and politically incorrect dialogue.

Kings of the Ring was created and written by @SteveTeTai and produced by "Mana Sports Media". For any questions or feedback email us at PartsUnknown@KingsOTR.com.
