The JJ Dillon Show

This week on the show JJ and Rich are back with a long overdue mailbag epsiode, featuring all listener-submitted questions. We dive into how the wrestling business can be a heavy burden on a marriage , talk about JJ's time managing David Von Erich in Florida, and stuff on TV that couldn't be done today. Plus, JJ reveals who he wish he could have wrestled, and also discusses some long overlooked names who were stars on the women's circuit. --Get an official JJ Dillon T-Shirt at [www.prowrestlingtees.com/jjdshow](www.prowrestlingtees.com/jjdshow) --EMAIL us! - jjdillonshow@mlw.com --TWITTER - Follow us @jjdillonshow… Use #AskJJD --SUBSCRIBE, RATE/REVIEW on Apple Podcaats  ---JJ’s Autobiography, Wrestlers are Like Seagulls, leaves no stone unturned, chronicling his journey from fan, to ref, to in-ring performer, manager, and front office executive.

JJ and Rich return for another fun-filled, history-packed edition of The JJ Dillon Show! On this edition of Storytime with JJ, we get an an update from JJ after a recent health scare. Was this worse than his injury in the first-ever WarGames match? JJ will be managing in a NWA World Heavyweight Championship match in Pittsburgh on Dec. 1\. Does he have any tricks up his sleeve (or on his feet) to help bring home another World Title? As always, the conversation takes us wherever it goes, and this week we get stories about the late Jose Lothario, Dick Slater, and Don Leo Jonathan, who all recently passed away. JJ retells the hilarious story of Mad Dog Mayne’s drunken match against Lothario in Houston, and much, much more. Plus, we answer questions from the mailbag, and JJ explains what “telling a story in the ring” actually means. --Get an official **JJ Dillon T-Shirt** at [www.prowrestlingtees.com/jjdshow](www.prowrestlingtees.com/jjdshow) --EMAIL us! - jjdillonshow@mlw.com --TWITTER - Follow us @jjdillonshow… Use #AskJJD --SUBSCRIBE, RATE/REVIEW on Apple Podcaats ---JJ’s Autobiography, **_Wrestlers are Like Seagulls,_** leaves no stone unturned, chronicling his journey from fan, to ref, to in-ring performer, manager, and front office executive.
