Pro wrestler “The Kingpin” Brian Milonas and referee Mike Crockett wish you a Merry Christmas, and to celebrate the arrival of one jolly bearded man, we’re bringing another one back onto the podcast – our pal WarBeard Hanson (@WarBeardHanson) of War Machine! Since he sat down with us one year ago, Hanson has torn up New Japan and Ring Of Honor Wrestling with Ray Rowe and we reflect on it. Todd talks about his first-ever action figure going onto the market, working with Tommaso Ciampa, his WrestleKingdom debut coming up next week, seeing his buddy Brian Milonas in ROH, plus the legend of “The Duke Of Elegance” Don Chesterfield, disintegrating his teeth on a ladder, his TRUE THOUGHTS on his six-man partner for the Tokyo Dome, Michael Elgin, and Hanson responds to the rumors of War Machine’s next move! Also this week, why have a Promo About Nothing, when you can have a NO HOLDS BARRED Promo About Nothing, Crockett sings (and signs?), and news on a BIG CHANGE to our podcasting schedule!

Pro wrestler “The Kingpin” Brian Milonas and referee Mike Crockett are not together this week, with Milonas off to ply his trade with Ring Of Honor Wrestling. That doesn’t stop Crockett and regular fill-in co-host Brian Fury (@xbrianxfuryx), owner of the New England Pro Wrestling Academy, from checking in with him via telephone often over the course of the episode. In between calls, we hit a ton of topics, not the least of which is Brian Fury’s role as the new owner of top New England independent promotion Chaotic Wrestling. We also delve into his unpopular WWE opinions, his worst match, Dalton Castle’s ROH World Title win, the XFL rumors, his visit to a WWE house show over the weekend, and the strange story of Fury’s match in a Mexican prison! Plus, this Promo About Nothing is as American as you are, squawking about the squatty potty and The Kingpin gives the spoilers!

Pro wrestler “The Kingpin” Brian Milonas and referee Mike Crockett are talking shop with an old friend who made wrestling gear for Milonas back in the day – and now he’s making it for the Superstars of WWE! Mikaze is a pro wrestler out of New England who’s currently on an extended hiatus as he pursues his other dream as a costume designer. We discuss his stints in Chaotic Wrestling and Ring Of Honor, his match on RAW with Ryback and the bout in NXT that ended with him being knocked out cold. Find out how a high school sewing class started Mikaze on a path to making gear for WrestleMania! Plus, tons of insight on Sasha Banks’ gear, collaborating with talent, seeing his designs on a Barbie, making something for a McMahon, being a part of Up Up Down Down, taking his work home with him and so much more! Also this week, this Promo About Nothing hopes to make it uh, very big, The Kingpin gets taken for his payday and TheWPAN.com is live!
