  • Episode 507: Prowrestling's BIGGEST Offense
    Mar 27 2026
    On this episode of Something To Wrestle with John Layfield, JBL and Conrad Thompson are serving up a can't miss mix of old school respect, locker room realities, and headline making takes from across the wrestling world. John kicks things off by paying tribute to Dennis Condrey, calling him one of the true cornerstones of tag team wrestling and a pure tag professional who helped define the art form. From there, JBL reflects on the larger than life aura of Sid Vicious, explaining what made Sid's presence so shocking and so unforgettable every time he stepped through the curtain. The conversation turns to modern headlines as JBL weighs in on the possibility of Tom Brady showing up at WrestleMania, and why it wouldn't surprise him one bit.
