Murdering Menace Heel - Nanjo Singh
This week, we talk about an old timey pro wrestler, who helped pioneer a lot of things that are still used in wrestling, today. He was a heel, who was way ahead of his time, causing riots among the fans, and even being stabbed, or jailed, multiple times. He ends up owning a bar in Philly, and is accused of murdering his wife, beating her so badly, that her mother didn't recognize her. But will that be enough to end up in prison??
Cause riots in towns all over the US with your heel tactics, wrestle some of the most legendary names in history, and throw it all away by senselessly beating your wife to death with Nanjo Singh!!
Check us out, every Tuesday!
We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!

It just doesn’t make sense to me when they say you don’t have to like sports to like this show. I’d say you must like sports to get through this show lol
Love wrestling episodes. I get just as excited as James does about it.
Oscar Peterson is a jazz legend, probably the most celebrated jazz pianist ever. He played a ton with Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass. It's a wrestling episode of a sports podcast, so you are forgiven for not knowing. 😅 Love you guys.
At some point to need to get Jim Cornette on for one of these.. That was an epic episode and Whisman should be Nanjo for the holiday show lol..
I'm not a wrestling fan in the least but I love these episodes because James' glee at all the inside wrestling stuff is amazing.
We have a city in Ontario Canada called Waterloo. It’s a part of the greater Kitchener Waterloo Cambridge area. The big newspaper in that area is called the Waterloo Record, so perhaps the articles were from that particular newspaper? I don’t know maybe I could be wrong about it being in Iowa as well 😅 Please do some more wrestlers though! They’re one of, if not, the best episodes of crime in sports!! Great job as always boys!
On losing ears in the ring, Yukon Eric lost a chunk of his ear in a match with Killer Kowalski in the 50s after a knee from the top rope so it's not unheard of to turn a horrendous injury into an angle as this lead to Killer Kowalski being referred to as Killer.
I'm not much of a wrestling fan but I do love hearing Jim Cornette tell road stories from back in the day.
damn James your frigging cooked bro the lady got off the show your baked my man see sounds like your feeling right 🤣🤣I live your guys show cya on patron next week!
Always a great episode ❤️
Let's just say it's not shrinking # segel full frontal
Unbelievable! My mother dated Ilio Diapaolo's son when I was a child. It's wild to hear you guys bring up such a familiar name! Btw, his son owns a great Italian restaurant named after his father. Nice people, Buffalo NY area.
I love how excited James is during wrestling episodes! In contrast, Jimmie seems so disinterested. Am I alone in this observation? 🤔
I’m on the Jimmie team. Not so interested in wrestling and wrestlers. But I enjoy James’ enthusiasm
It’s hilarious to hear Jimmie listening politely while he doesn’t give a shit, and James completely nerding out on obscure regional promoters.
I think a T-shirt with a kidney running away would be hilarious!
If he's a Sikh from Punjab it's entirely possible he may have been born on the Pakistan side of the partition - which happened in 1947 after he got to USA.
I know Hindu, Sikh and Muslim families on both sides of that line. One thing they all have in common - they DESPISE Mountbatten.
To answer the rope question: I’m friends with one of the WWE refs and they still use ropes
Safer apparently reason Mick Foley lost his ear was because they were lift cables in WCW and not tightened properly on that night
James you need to listen to the last jim cornette drive thru. They found archival radio audio of a wrestling match that turned into a riot in Minneapolis. The radio guy play by played when the fans rushed the ring and it was awesome. Since you mentioned wally carbo, he was actually the referee of said match and the radio announcer jumped in the ring for an interview with referee wally carbo.
I love wrestling episodes!! I’d love for you to do a bonus on Ric Flair. The Georgia Tann connection, plane crash he survived, being on life support and coming back from it. Would love you guys to cover it!
Ric could have an episode to himself
