SCW’s Apex on the rise; Storm Grayson’s pipe bomb

Southwest suburban native Apex has made the transition from mixed martial arts to pro wrestling look relatively easy as he continues to rise through the ranks of Southland Championship Wrestling. Apex joins Windy City Slam Podcast to discuss his MMA career, overcoming some adversity early in his life, how Koa Laxamana convinced him to give pro wrestling a shot, pulling punches in a pro wrestling setting, coming up with his signature maneuver and his inspiration behind it and more. Plus, Mike praises Storm Grayson’s promo from the end of Freelance Wrestling’s “Three Counts at Freelance,” and recaps other highlights from the weekend, including NXT’s “Deadline.”
