Crit's Ringside Chat

I've already spoken to one half of Cash Grab, so its only fitting I speak to the other half. This week's guest is Lenny Earl Cash's Asset Adonis Briggs! We share a barrel of laughs as we discuss transitioning from strongman competitions to wrestling, our mutual love for The Amazing Red, the new blood's respect for Low Ki, and more!Side note, all opinions stated by me are mine and not Adonis Briggs. If any company wants to get mad at me for the things I say, just get mad and me and me alone. No reason.

No bones about it, no soft talk, no bullshit. These recent WWE releases are the worst ones yet considering the timing of them, so lets really talk about it, because believe you me, I got some shit to say

TNA has been on some crazy nonsense recently and I think its time I finally address it. From the weird payment system they have to pulling people off independent shows, they're doing themselves no favors in the grand scheme of things. Also get my thoughts on Wrestlemania and other stuff that happened last week from the outside looking in I guess

Its a late episode, but everything is late when you're snowed in. So lets talk about WWE Unreal and why companies feel the need to wanna let you know everything that goes on behind the scenes (And also understand why certain individuals beyond casuals need/want to know whats going on unfiltered).
