Show Notes
Michael Kingston, creator and writer of pro wrestling comic "Headlocked" shares his inspiring journey with Gregory Iron. Michael chats about the Kickstarter for his latest book, his experiences with Vince McMahon and Randy Savage, the struggles of launching a pro wrestling comic, Ultimate Warrior nearly doing artwork for Headlocked, his friendship with Jerry Lawler, his hilarious first interaction with John Cena, and the never ending grind that goes into bringing his incredible books to life.
Before the interview, Greg & Aaron prank Greg's dad, the guys remember Rickey Shane Page and Josh Alexander's attitudes in AIW two different ways, and Greg touches on why he has yet to return to AIW. And enjoy the closing track -- a cover of "Judas" by the incredibly talented Todd Gilbert, who plays every instrument and sings, despite having muscular dystrophy.
