Do you care about the health, safety and overall well being of wrestlers? That's the main theme of this week's episode of #DukeLovesRasslin
First up we have EJ from the Earnestly Speaking Podcast. Listen as this podcaster who's over 10 years in the game explains key aspects of his journey building his brand, his love for pro wrestling and WHY he took 17 years away from actively watching wrestling on a regular basis! That's right this man missed the entire CM Punk and Daniel Bryan runs and so much more. What's it like returning to being an active wrestling fan? How has it been going back and watching all of the NXT Takeover events and seeing the emergences of Women and people of color headlining major events. How has #AEW contributed to EJ's return to active pro wrestling fandom? Very insightful conversation that you won't want to miss.
The Duke digs into the concept of giving a damn about the health, safety and overall well being of wrestlers and personalities within the wrestling industry. What are Duke's thoughts on Tremont having to remain in the hospital after suffering serious burn injuries stemming from Tremont's exploding barbwire deathmatch with Onita? Well wishes for Jon Moxley who has recently been checked into Rehab for alcohol addiction. Duke weighs in on AEW's lack of a full scale Wellness Policy and how that compares to mistakes made by both WWE and WCW in the past. This portion of the show is likely to cause some emotional responses form others, but it all needs to be said!
