Nothing is more weird than the world of professional wrestling. So what happens when you take wrestling and add a punk rock act, a man dressed up as Bigfoot, and throw a bunch of corn tortillas into the air?

Former wrestler/announcer Count Dante AKA Bob Calhoun, walks me through the rise and fall of this very unique organization.
