On this week's episode Gene Jackson welcomes the one and only "Hood Ninja" himself, Hy-Zaya! Hy-Zaya has been around the business for many years and has been a staple of the Mid-West wrestling scene. In part one of their conversation they dig deep into Hy's early days in wrestling, what motivated him to get in the business, how he went about getting into the business, who helped him along the way, and how things were different from then to now. If you're a fan of IWA Mid-South, Bad to the Bone Wrestling, or JCW…you'll recognize some of the legendary names that come up in this conversation that includes a lot of fun stories along the way like the time that Hy-Zaya and Chris Hero got slapped by a certain wrestler's wife after a match. Plus, great memories of guys like American Kickboxer, Tracy Smothers, Suicide Kid, Tarek the Great, Bull Pain, Todd Morton, and many, many more.
A really fun and insightful conversation with one of the stand out wrestlers from the past two decades who has influenced countless wrestlers on the scene today.
