A monthly pro wrestling podcast presented by Ryan Flynn and produced by FM105 in collaboration with Lisburn's 98FM.
Two marks from County Down, Northern Ireland lay the craic down on the latest action in pro wrestling at home and around the globe.
It's peak wrasslin' season over the pond where the big boys play so this episode we're taking a break from our favourite local promotions to pay homage to the WWE overlords. It's the ultimate thrill-ride Wrestlemania 33 preview!
Ryan and John are joined by two of their favourite local grappling fans - musician Chris Bateman (aka Kid Sexy) and broadcaster Peter Cinnamond - for a full breakdown of the card. Expect scorching hot takes, wack fantasy booking and just the right amount of gripe and groan.
