As a wrestling enthusiast for over 30 years, my fondness for professional wrestling explores the irrational in a rational way. I will explore the details inside and outside the ring and hopefully have a laugh with you in the process. I've had the fortune to interview wrestlers from Lucha Underground, TNA, Ring of Honor, GFW, and former WWE talent as well. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @TheMarcMadison

The evolutionists seem to know everything about the missing Link except the fact that it is missing. – Gilbert K. Chesterton For Dewey Robertson, his on-screen persona was unlike anything anyone had seen before. He was liked and respected by his peers. Robertson would commit years to his craft, often showcasing a stature that was not unlike a movie star with his looks. After years of showcasing a clean-cut appearance and being adored by fans, Robertson tapped into a part of his psyche that did not reflect what evolutionists like Charles Darwin would argue about years prior.

As a second-generation wrestler, Dragon Lee has emerged as a special talent that both his brothers and father would be proud of. Lee is the son of Arturo Munoz, La Bestia del Ring has been competing since 2013. At 18 years of age, Lee would begin his early training and development under CMLL. With a style and physique that resembled a hybrid of both Lucha libre and Purosesu styles, Dragon Lee’s name, too, doesn’t suggest that he’s of Mexican descent.

On Monday, May 13th, WWE aired what has been called for over thirty ‘the Holy Grail,’ as it pitted a promising young talent by the name of Tom Magee against ‘The Excellence of Execution’ Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart. During the mini-documentary that preceded the airing of the match, Kassius Ohno spoke about how this was a match that tape traders back then often spoke about, much like collectors seeking a hockey or baseball card in mint condition that is so rare that no one can lay claim to it. This is the Holy Grail, WWEs Most Infamous Lost Match, In…

Los Lotharios are a family rich in tradition. While other Latin families such as the Guererros or the Colon’s may have likely gained more recognition, cousins Angel Garza and Humberto Carillo have ushered in a new sense of purpose for Luchadore’s competing outside of Mexico. However, before addressing how they came to be, it is important to recognize their family ties in wrestling and the rich family ties of the Garza’s. Los Lotharios – The Origins of El Hijo del Ninja & Ultimo Ninja Humberto Garza Solano hadn’t competed under the name Angel Garza until he came to the WWE…

A thousand dead or a thousand deaths, this was the story of Mil Muertes. In the Fall of 2014, Ricky Banderas joined the Lucha Underground program. Upon his entry, we hear of the tale of Pasquel Mendoza. Mendoza’s family died in an earthquake in Mexico City when he was a child. With Catrina by his side, Mil Muertes would make his debut. “We’ve always had chemistry from the beginning,”. “There’s a respect there, where he’s obviously a massive guy, but he doesn’t overshadow me, and I don’t overshadow him. From that paragraph, we kind of grew into it. Our entrance…
