Interviewed 20 wrestlers (including Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, Ethan Page, & RJ City) and went to 12 live shows in the summer of 2016 so I could write my dissertation on the performance of the heel in wrestling, got myself a PhD and a job out of it.

Not to nitpick on Wildcard Sunday but the adjustable backwards hat on Dan Quinn looks awful. Just get a fitted my guy.

Some days you have an amazing class, other days someone rips a sign with your name and office hours off your door and tears it up. Sometimes that’s the same day.

Hey #wrestlesky, now's as good a time as any to brag about my dissertation that I'd love to turn into a book. I interviewed 20 wrestlers about the performance of the heel in wrestling and collected a ton of great stories from names you definitely know. Here's two short Ciampa and Gargano quotes:
