EPISODE #103 - INJURIES & UPDATES/RIP "DIRTY" DICK SLATER/ARIES EXITS IMPACT/SMACKDOWN 1000

Jethro Tull said, "Life's a Long Song," and so is The Whole Ref'n Show, especially when played on your smart phone, streamed between your other favorite podcasts and whatever Spotify playlist you've thrown together to celebrate a budding relationship or grieve over an evaporating one. But this is episode is not a "Long and Winding Road," as The Beatles once talked about. But hey, #dearlisteners, Frankie Say Relax... we've also been told what Rod Stewart once said, "You Wear It Well." And why not? We ARE, in fact, the ONLY wrestling podcast that calls it right down the middle! But any episode that touts itself as the top of the pops in #wrestlenewsandwrestleviews had better deliver, and of course, our heroes Daryn and Perry do just that! After all, if David Bowie taught us anything, it's that "we can be heroes... if just for one day." Wrestling is very much a "Wild World" like Cat Stevens sang about, and small victories (signings), setbacks (long-term injuries) and finish lines (RIP) are all apart of that weird and wacky world. This week we cover news about the Mae Young Classic 2018, Impact's 'Bound for Glory' show, the passing of "Dirty" Dick Slater, Smackdown 1000 (sort of), and we take a look forward to next week's FEST 17 in Gainesville, Florida where on Saturday night, 27 October, The Whole Ref'n Show will be performing LIVE at The Hippodrome in downtown Gainesville with a panel (to be announced) that will rock your socks off! AND THEN there's Sunday, 28 October when FEST Wrestling brings you an ALL-DAY affair with dozens and dozens of the top talent in #indywrestling tearing up Gainesville for 'We Are Family 2.' This episode of The Whole Ref'n Show rocks just like any other, and we thank you, the faithful, the #dearlisteners, the #friendsoftheshow, for making it all possible!
