Watched the Nick Gage episode today, I really enjoyed it. I'm glad I'm more invested in the independent scene and having watched Gage wrestle and experienced GCW/Deathmatches and all that before I watched it, just made me enjoy it even more to hear about it all. I'd already read a lot about him, but just such a really crazy episode seeing and hearing it all play out, and the stories
If you can watch a lot of old CZW matches, and you get a better idea. I also love how you have become a Hardcore/Deathmatch fan slowly.
They are such crazy battles, and I have a lot of respect for how much they put their bodies through. It's insane. Like just seeing Cole Radrick lately after his GCW matches with all the scars really put in it to perspective especially
I'll for sure try to check out more of Gage's GZW work, I've been doing that with a lot of the wrestlers I've come to be more familiar with now, and just seeing what their older work was like too and how far a lot of them have come in their careers
Speaking of that episode... Thumbtack Jack talked about THAT match while that season was going on.
Put subtitles on and give it a watch, it's quite interesting to hear his side of the whole thing.

One guy I will recommend you checking out is MASADA.
I'd be in for that as well.
Kevin Nash says Dark Side of the Ring is working on an episode focused on Scott Hall.
The one-year anniversary of Hall's death recently passed and Nash spent this week's Kliq This podcast speaking about his friend. During the conversation, Nash noted that Dark Side wants him, Sean Waltman, and Cody Hall to take part in the project.
Nash said:
Hall fatally shot 37-year-old Rodney Perry Turner outside of The Dollhouse strip club on January 15, 1983. Turner was a manager at the bar where Hall worked as a bartender. The confrontation between the two began when Hall arrived at the bar and Turner confronted him about allegedly having slept with his wife. Turner had fatally shot another man due to a dispute involving his wife just months earlier. A struggle over Turner's.45-caliber handgun ensued and led to his death and Hall being charged with second-degree murder. The charges were later dropped, however.
In March 2022, Hall was taken to hospital after falling and breaking his hip. Following hip replacement surgery, he developed a blood clot that led to three heart attacks. The 63-year-old was taken off of life support on March 14, 2022. He is survived by his son Cody and daughter Cassidy.
