On the outside, "Aftershock" Adam Ricker had it all.
Four-time IWE Triple Crown Champion. Executive Director.
But what most people couldn't see was that there was a high price to pay for Adam's lifelong ambition to be a professional wrestler. Racism, homophobia, sexual misconduct, misogyny, and more - Local celebrity is not always glamorous.
This week, we take the Two Kings Podcast in a different direction. Recently, there has been a movement in the world of professional wrestling, exposing the people and actions that have gone on for far too long, with he hashtag #SpeakingOut.
Several weeks ago, Adam shared a portion of his story on his social media, but our listeners deserve the full story of one local wrestling promotion, and one man's journey through the firestorm. As a performer, and as a a behind-the-scenes part of the company, Adam has a unique opportunity to show both sides of the industry, and we urge you to join us this week for a very special Two Kings Podcast.
This week, we are devoting the entire podcast to an in-depth interview with the Artist Formerly Known as "Aftershock" Adam Ricker. This is one episode of The Two Kings Podcast that you won't want to miss.
