Wrestling Is Gross ·

We return with a look into the career of the late Justice Pain, and attempt to dissect his value to early 2000s CZW, his willingness to fall from high surfaces, and the psychology of breaking tables accidentally on purpose.

Wrestling Is Gross #26 - A Safe Place to Be Stabbed

Wrestling Is Gross ·

2019/11/26

Today, we're joined by @JoshuaBishop_ to discuss the logistics of falling off a balcony, how to get a free haircut with broken glass, and and what exactly it means to have no consequences. The audio on Bishop's end isn't too hot for the first half hour of the interview. After all, he's a professional wrestler, not a professional podcaster. If you can't tough it out, his microphone sounds immensely better starting around the 34 minute mark. Joshua Bishop vs. Dominic Garrini (AIW 4/4/2019) Check out

Wrestling Is Gross #25 - Dirt Nap

Wrestling Is Gross ·

2019/11/15

In part 1 of our series chronicling the best Luchas de Apuestas of the 2010s, we discuss the complexities of friendship, play a game of What's In That Bucket, and watch a man in a chicken suit almost bleed to death. Our Twitter account got suspended for having a pic of Matt Tremont bleeding with a toilet seat hanging around his neck as our header image. I sent an appeal, but we're not optimistic. Until we decide something, enjoy me posting graphic images on my main account. Matches

Wrestling Is Gross ·

2019/10/20

Wrestling Is Gross ·

2019/10/07

Solo episode. I (Bucky) went to the Nick Gage Invitational, met up with some dear friends, participated in illegal activities, and washed myself in royal blood. This episode was recorded on my phone. The audio is very bad. Also, the podcast itself is quite bad. Listeners beware.

2019/09/21

We return, haphazardly, to break down a summer of deathmatch tournaments, judging by the important criteria of cocaine usage, nickname quality, and who sucks, but sucks in the right ways. This is either our best episode ever or our worst.
