Episode #15 - Interview with Dr. Lawrence Zirconium

We’re back with another fun episode, headlined by a fun interview with Dr. Lawrence Zirconium, owner and promoter of Dangerous Adrenaline Wrestling Gladiators (DAWG) in New Jersey. Dr. Zirconium will tell us about getting into the wrestling business at a young age and working as a referee, commentator, manager, and, for a while, an in-ring performer. Dr. Zirconium goes on to tell us about the genesis of DAWG and his vision for modern day wrestling with an old school feel.

 

Dr. Zirconium previews the next two DAWG events coming up, wRAHstlemania on April 17 at Rowan University, and DAWG Wrestling at Geekfest in Westville, New Jersey on April 19. Listen to this fantastic interview as Dr. Zirconium tells a ton of funny stories and takes every chance he gets to let his feelings be known about one-half of the DAWG tag team champions, Dave Doll!!

 

In addition, Jon and Bob review CCW Bash at the Brew 51 from this past Saturday. Bob noticed they were live streaming the event at the last minute, tagged Jon, and now we’re going to talk about it. Awesome show from start to finish, including AJ Francis vs Alan S2S Martinez, Brian Kendrick vs. Domino, Ozzy Kilmeister vs Agony, and King Eddie Valentine’s Championship Celebration.

 

Our Youtube recommendation of the week is two episodes of UPW Uprising (Season 3, Episodes 13 & 14), featuring Sierra vs Leela Hall, Melvin Hayes vs Danny Duggan, and Jay Dinero vs Sampson for the UPW Championship.
