Gregory Iron sits in a bar in Austin, Texas with independent wrestling legend "Spyder" Nate Webb!
For the first time, Nate Webb tells the story of how he was scheduled to wrestle "Macho Man" Randy Savage in Times Square and how the terrorist attacks of 9/11 changed those plans.
Nate also chats with Greg about his musical talents, IWA-MS and the stars that the promotion produced, his shoot fight with Ian Rotten in a locker room, Tracy Smothers, Teddy Hart's cat, sharing a locker room with Ricky Steamboat and Sting, his time in NWA-TNA, the origin of his moonsault Van Terminator, his theme song "Teenage Dirtbag," how he became tight with Wheatus and how he convinced them to play him to the ring live.
Before the interview, Greg and Aaron Bauer share Tracy Smothers stories and discuss his current battle with cancer and discuss the importance of a referee. Greg reveals how Raven told him how he subtly buries talent when he has to put them over and talks about the hat he was gifted from Steve Austin. Aaron shares a story about watching a wrestler die in a locker room, and the duo share their experiences with Wrestling Superstar Virgil.
