Episode 65 - Kushida vs. Will Ospreay (Newcastle upon Tyne, England - 26/8/2017)

The World Cup of Wrestling?! The World Cup in Qatar has just ended and we thought that this would be an opportune time to discuss our thoughts on the World Cup of Soccer/Football and how it compares to the events that we love. Tariq talks about going to watch a World Cup match live in 2002 and Jim talks about watching a league game in Europe. But none of that holds a candle to what was on display in this week’s match. If you have ever questioned whether wrestlers were truly athletes, this is absolutely the match for you. In this match, Will Ospreay does some things that seem humanely impossible. But what is most interesting to Jim was Tariq’s take on women’s place in society, what do you think? Have we gone too far in the other direction?
