    Blueprint to Mayor

    Blueprint to Mayor

    The Blueprint of professional wrestling joins us the week; or as Brian likes to call him Mayor Matt Morgan join us this week.  Matt was a two sport star at school then danced his way to Monmouth where he played basketball in the NCAA Tournament in 1996.  Soon after that he had tryouts for the Indiana Pacers and Toronto Reports.  However, the one thing he wanted to do was wrestle in WWE.  He worked at a job that was very near the WWE headquarters in Connecticut so he could “bump into” Vince McMahon.  Luckily he did just that and landed on Tough Enough 2.  As they say the rest is history and he soon found himself in TNA and had it all. Finally , today Matt is the mayor of Longwood, Florida and is enjoying it there with his family and community.

Great New Show

As a top guy on ad free shows everyone talked about this show and so I decided to check it. I have to say it is fantastic. The takes and the conversation back and forth is always great. The opinions are always great and have depth to why they have that opinion. I’ve been binging to catch up and have been loving it. I also appreciate Justin’s hate for Shawn as a fellow Bret fan I always enjoying hearing people beat up on Shawn.
