Tights and Fights

Ep. 146: CMLL at Arena Mexico w/ Jesse Thorn

This week, Hal and Danielle are rejoined by <a href="https://twitter.com/JesseThorn">Jesse Thorn</a>. He’s the Max Fun Network’s top Big Boss Man and he’s had almost no experience with wrestling. But a few weeks ago he and his wife traveled to Mexico City and Arena Mexico where they saw their first live wrestling show, put on by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre. He’ll share all the fun and absurdity that he experienced, including why he found the heels more entertaining for the wrestling, how indie-wrestling star Colt Cabana helped make this happen and which wrestler inspired his future tattoos.
