To most, WWE is your only exposure to pro-wrestling, but did you know up until 30 years ago, pro-wrestling was more like the Mafia than a sports league? Did you know that in the 80’s, while wrestling presented a show literally designed for children, that behind the curtain was the most Rated R, sexual, drug addled, sexified, violent, and cutthroat world imaginable? It was a sex, drugs, and muscles world while a nationwide SUCCESSION-like corporate war for national supremacy waged. In this crazy world of 80’s wrestling, ALL these things happened: A wrestler bit a man’s nose off in a bar, a promoter offered a rival’s wrestler $500k to jump leagues with the rival’s title belt, wrestlers were killed for gambling debt with the Mafia, arch-enemies in the ring arrested for drugs WITH each other, a Hollywood actor was slapped on a late night talk show, wrestlers tried to form a union, a wrestler broke his back in an airplane crash to become the greatest wrestler ever, backstage brawls with guys almost killing each other with scissors, guys wrestling a match while an orchestra played music to match the action, a Black wrestler given the character of an African savage animal, a legendary wrestler pulled a ‘57 Magnum on the most famous wrestler in the world, while a fan held off a group of bad guy wrestlers at gunpoint at ringside, and wrestlers were given World title reigns in exchange for sex! These are just some of the building blocks of KINGS OF THE RING, a fictional soap opera that re-creates all the crazy, unbelievable, and outrageous tales of the real world of 80’s wrestling! In the 1980’s, anything went and wrestlers lived a life much wilder than the hardest partying rock stars, because fans then believed that wrestling was 100% real, and the wrestlers went to incredible lengths to protect this illusion. Often at the cost of their own souls... The characters will seem familiar to you, but never exactly the same as real people, and the stories will blow your mind, as you listen knowing that everything is based on the truth! It’s wrestling... it’s the 1980’s ... it’s sex, drugs, and muscles, baby... welcome to the Kings of the Ring.

Previously on Kings of the Ring,
Diamond Donny Gold awakened from the plane crash only to learn that he’s paralyzed from the waist down, and that Chief Waylon Thorpe died.
Corporal Punishment begged for his job back in the Empire, and Louie the Greek noticed how personal Julian Cain’s feelings are towards Charlie Gotch.
Charlie and Burt schemed on the future, Julian Cain successfully swiped Hollywood Buddy Melrose out of retirement, Tarzan has been working with the dragoni crime family to pay off his gambling debts, and the Southern Rebels arrived in All-South and immediately targeted Gabriel Angel who is all alone
And finally, St. Louis was sold at auction to the highest bigger, and we never found out if was Charlie & Burt, Krusher & Gilmore, Julian Cain, or someone else … until now.
Kings of the Ring is intended for mature audiences. Today’s episode would be rated MA for profanity, smoking, and disgusting graphic sexual dialogue.
