EPISODE #080 - NJPW STRONG STYLE EVOLVED/LEVA BATES INTERVIEW/FEST WRESTLING HARDCORE HUNT PREVIEW WITH SPECIAL GUEST: RICH BOCCHINI

Watch out for this episode, it's a doozy! The only wrestling podcast that calls it right down the middle is bursting at the seams this week with the wild and crazy! Leva Bates joins our heroes Daryn and Perry for a look back at her career as well as up to the second preparation for her battle with Effy this weekend at FEST Wrestling's Hardcore Hunt! The artist formerly known as Blue Pants, Leva Bates talks about her earliest memories of pro-wrestling, setting her eyes on Rey Mysterio and La Parka, training with the Dudley Boys, tagging with Delilah Doom, doing her best Eddie Brock, Indiana Jones and The Sandman, and more! Leva talks nicey-nice about her impending clash with FEST Wrestling World Champion, Effy, but this might be where the nice stops, #dearlisteners. And after the lovely sit-down conversation with the effervescent Leva Bates, our heroes sit down with the voice of independent wrestling, Rich Bocchini, to break down the whole line-up for FEST Wrestling's Hardcore Hunt (this Saturday, 31 March 2018). Is it insanity? Is it inanity? Is it brilliance? The boys and Rich tamper with decency as they barrel through this discussion in a most peculiar fashion, full of laughter and fun. You do not want to miss this. And that's not all! We actually begin this week's episode with headlines about the WWE Hall of Fame, a brief discussion of New Japan Pro Wrestling's "Strong Style Evolved" show as well as the announcement of MLW's television deal (which involves guest and good #friendoftheshow, Rich Bocchini!
