  • The wrestling I love

    I love wrestling and I love the way all three of the Tights and Fights panel love wrestling. They’re so funny and spot on with the commentary and even mix in culture and politics which is what makes wrestling so great, if you didn’t know. Y’all are great keep it up!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 471: Rough House with Alison Lyn Miller
Q: Has working on this book and telling the story of Hunter James made you a little bit more interested in seeing at least local wrestling?
Absolutely, and I'm all the time recommending indie wrestling shows to people.
Ep. 471: Rough House with Alison Lyn Miller
Q: Did you find in the process of writing this book that you gained an even deeper appreciation for just how important that territory has been?
Yes, many wrestlers have either passed through, started here, or moved here.
Ep. 471: Rough House with Alison Lyn Miller
Q: How much wrestling did you watch before you decided to write this book?
Very little, but I grew up in the late 80s and early 90s during wrestling's peak.
Ep. 467: A preview of John Cena’s final match
Q: Do you think it's the best way to configure the card so that people tune in initially and then see everything?
The card is great, but it's a tall order to ask anyone to follow John Cena's goodbye, as the emotional impact may wear out the audience for subsequent matches.
Ep. 461: What’s going on with the World Heavyweight Title?
Q: Why does putting the title on Punk serve the belt?
The title needs Punk more than he needs the title; it could attract fan interest and revitalize the title's significance.
