Kings of the RingAuthor: Mana Sports Media
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 80s, 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 80s wrestling, ALL these things happened: A wrestler bit a mans nose off in a bar, a promoter offered a rivals wrestler 500k to jump leagues with the rivals 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 80s wrestling! In the 1980s, 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 Language: en Genres: Drama, Fiction, Sports, Wrestling Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |

Episode 73
Tuesday, 30 June, 2026
Last THREE! linktr.ee/KingsOTR This episode features Guest Voice Actors: Doc Gallows Kings of the ring is intended for mature audiences. Today's episode would be rated MA for profanity, homophobic slurs, and graphic sexual descriptions. Previously on Kings of the Ring, The walls have been closing in on Nigel Davies as he runs out of viable options for a buyer of the WWA, which may make conceding to Julian Cain inevitable. A reality Julian is relishing as he puts the screws to Ava Hawkins and attacking the WWA's first venture into PPV, by hatchet jobbing Battle of the Starrs. Criss Stanley is at his own crossroads for his own future as All-South is in doubt, as Burt Ironside is losing his marbles, Michael Angel is gone, and Gabriel Angel doesn't seem to care. The Memorial Show for Michael may be the last, as wrestlers pull out of the territory despite them advertising Diamond Donny Gold's return to All-South. Shark and Buzzsaw are furious about their Meat Machine friend wrestling as Armageddon in the EWF, and Senator Buddy Melrose hopes to found the missing piece to nail Julian Cain in a court of law. Thor Hansen continues to battle Killian Kavanagh for Julian Cain's ear and positioning within the EWF. Hercules Harris struggles with his career in the WWA since being hamstrung by a Julian lawsuit and Brutal Bob's prejudice against him being anything close to a top guy. The Roughhousers are in Atlanta now, much to the chagrin of Apollo Sampson who's rebuilt his esteem over the past year since Brick Sawyer drove him out of the business in All-South.
