Episode 61: Kyle Durden

Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/an-honorable-mention-with-shane-hagadorn Kyle who?For some reason we can see that being the response, but what you all need to know is that Kyle Durden is a man who lived the Ring of Honor experience from every aspect. Training at the ROH Academy under Bryan Danielson, going on the road as part of the crew and eventually a wrestler, having enough self-awareness to tolerate being told "you suck" by Adam Pearce, and learning to steer his natural gifts into a role that was perfect: backstage announcer/interviewer/correspondent/whatever. It's about the experience of not fitting the wrestling mold behind the scenes or in the locker room, it's about thinking the life of a wrestler was to be lived in a certain way, and Kyle honestly discussing the ugly parts of who he was during that time.Durden also had to face the death of the dream when "ROH on HDNet" ended and he was left, along with many others, on the shelf waiting to be called back into the game.That never happened...at least not with Ring of Honor.This is also the story of what comes next , after the dream is over, and how things can actually come full circle in real life, not just in the movies. From the dingy facility of the Bristol office/school to the NWA Crockett Cup of 2019, this is the journey of Kyle Durden...-=-=-=-=-=-=-=An Honorable Mention Podcast is hosted by Jeff Schwartz & Shane Hagadorn every Tuesday on the Creative Control Network.
