Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis
Ever wondered how some of wrestling's biggest names have mastered the art of longevity and audience engagement? Join us for an exciting episode of Road Trip After Hours with our special guest, the legendary Downtown Bruno. Filling in for our usual co-host Teddy Long, Bruno takes us down memory lane, sharing his incredible journey from his early days in mid-continent wrestling under Dale Man to his big break in Memphis when Jimmy Hart left for New York. Listen as he recounts his valuable mentorships with Guido Mongo and Jonathan Boyd and the pivotal moment when Rocky Johnson brought him to Hawaii, realizing his dream to manage in his home territory.In this captivating conversation, we dive deep into the nuances of professional wrestling. Bruno sheds light on the importance of timing, pacing, and the "less is more" philosophy in the ring, a strategy that icons like The Rock, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and John Cena have mastered to ensure career longevity and unmatched audience engagement. Bruno also opens up about his near-fatal accident in 1994 and the business side of wrestling, stressing the significance of selling action rather than time. Despite stepping back from full-time wrestling, his passion for the sport remains undiminished as he continues to participate in smaller events and conventions.We conclude this episode with heartfelt reflections from Bruno as he reminisces about his induction into the Memphis Wrestling Hall of Fame and the excitement of signing with WWE over 35 years ago. He shares his admiration for influential figures such as Triple H, Randy Orton, Vince McMahon, and The Rock. With a cozy chat that includes his usual nighttime routine of chicken wings and cold beer, we wrap up by expressing our gratitude to Bruno for making this episode truly special. Don't miss this enjoyable and relaxed conversation that captures the essence of wrestling's evolution and its enduring appeal.

TNA's first anniversary show was treated like just any other show. However, we did get Sting, Jeff Jarrett, AJ Styles, and a debuting Sean Waltman in the main event...for whatever that's worth.

Hello my faithful listeners. Guess who's back? Back again. Unfortunately it is not Shady, but instead it's me! Your favorite SBM aka the Sophisticated Black Man. After a very long (almost 6 months, yeesh) hiatus, the SBM Podcast is back and in a new and hopefully enjoyable segment! That's right, I have now added in video podcasts as a part of my new format (although this is only currently available for Spotify users, everyone else will still get the audio version of it). But nonetheless, it feels great to be back recording the podcast for y'all again and I promise to not keep you guys waiting (at least for a long time like that again ;) ). In this triumph return to the podcast, I talk about the brand new format for the show and how it will be presented for an episode every so often. But the meat and potatoes of this podcast will be spent talking about everyone's favorite sport: wrasslin or wrestling for those who want proper English. We talk about the origins of it, from its Greco-Roman that everyone recognizes today as the actual sport, to where it became profitable in the 50s and 60s, how Black people have been participating in "sports entertainment" since slavery, to where it is today and how Black wrestlers of old (Rocky Johnson and company) have led to the rise of predominant Black wrestling. I also talk about my experiences watching wrasslin as a young Black kid, including the John Cena obsessions' to recently watching the latest WrestleMania. Again, it feels great to be back recording and providing the best content I possibly can, all for you guys.
