Ep. 178: Wrestling should be FUN w/ Darnell Mitchell

<p>This week, Danielle and Lindsey are joined by <a href="https://twitter.com/Dnellicious">Darnell Mitchell</a>. He’s one of the heads behind the Brooklyn-based wrestling promotion <a href="https://twitter.com/uncanny_attract">Uncanny Attraction</a>. Like any respectable wrestling organization, Uncanny Attraction will be in Tampa Bay on WrestleMania week (April 2nd at 11PM).</p> <p>He’s also ready to announce the show’s main event: Effy vs. AEW’s Sunny Kiss! Tickets are going to be available soon!</p> <p>Darnell will tell us all about what it was like to go from a fan to a professional in the industry, which independent wrestlers and promotions he’s most excited to see and why so many wrestlers need to step up their suit game.</p> <p>The Main Event</p> <p>Tessa Blanchard was known across the international wrestling scene as someone whose star was only going to burn brighter. She’s been a champion in multiple organizations, including the current World Champion of Impact. But in the midst of her greatest accomplishment, word has come out from multiple wrestlers that Tessa has a history of being a bully and a racist. It’s a lot to take in, but we share our reactions. </p> <p>The Three Count</p> <p>Darnell put over <a href="https://twitter.com/laurenmoran">artist Lauren Moran</a> and the <a href="https://twitter.com/THEonlyMVYoung/status/1215028901656875008?s=20"> MV Young No Ring Death Match Extravaganza</a> </p> <p>Lindsey put over <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmEehfDTWg4">this week’s episode of NXT, especially the debut of Mercedes Martinez.</a></p> <p>Danielle put over the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmEehfDTWg4">latest episode of Being the Elite with Kris Statlander and Orange Cassidy</a>.</p> <p>Hosted by <a href="https://twitter.com/DanielleRadford">Danielle Radford</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/LindseyKelk">Lindsey Kelk</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/Dnellicious">Darnell Mitchell</a>.</p> <p>Produced by <a href="https://twitter.com/Julian_Burrell">Julian Burrell</a> for <a h
