NWA Illinois State Heavyweight Champion "Showtime" Shane Somers is concerned that The Jagged Edge is coming for his title.
From art festivals to venues rich in wrestling history, you could find wrestling almost anywhere in Georgia last weekend. But Georgia wrestlers are venturing to other parts of the country in search of championship gold, which is why Wrestling with Pop Culture and guest co-host Matt “Sex” Sells talk to NWA Illinois State Heavyweight Champion “Showtime” Shane Somers on this week’s Georgia Wrestling Now. After an impressive NWA Central-States Championship Wrestling debut by The Jagged Edge recently, Somers’ title could definitely be at risk in the near future. In the second half of this week’s show we’re joined by Georgia Wrestling History‘s Larry Goodman as we talk to Rampage Pro Wrestling commentator Nigel Sherrod, who defends his Georgia All-Star Wrestling Junior Heavyweight Championship against “The Best” Lamar Phillips this Friday. We also discuss recent and upcoming events in Anarchy Wrestling, Monstrosity Championship Wrestling, NWA Edge, Pro Wrestling Resurrection, Progression Pro Wrestling, Peachstate Wrestling Alliance, Platinum Championship Wrestling and more. Listen live every Monday at 7 p.m. and call 347-324-5735 for questions or comments.

From the High Museum of Art to more traditional wrestling venues, it seems that you can find wrestling pretty much anywhere this weekend. On this week’s Georgia Wrestling Now, Team All You Can Eat’s Matt Hankins and Wrestling with Pop Culture talk to two people (well, that term is questionable for one of our guests) who will be involved in some of this weekend’s bigger events. First we hear from Professor Morté, who talks about last Friday’s Monstrosity Championship Wrestling event at Club Famous, this weekend’s MCW matches at Art-B-Que and other upcoming MCW events. Then we’re joined by Anarchy Wrestling commentator Tim E. D (who has a big announcement of his own) as we talk to Alternative Pro Wrestling’s Jeremy Vain about his shot at Shaun Tempers’ Anarchy Wrestling Championship this Saturday. Other topics of discussion include recent and upcoming events in Rampage Pro Wrestling, Pro Wrestling Resurrection, Deep Southern Championship Wrestling, Team WILLPower, NWA Atlanta, Universal Independent Wrestling, Chikara, Peachstate Wrestling Alliance, Georgia Championship Wrestling, Progression Pro Wrestling and more. Listen live every Monday at 7 p.m. and call 347-324-5735 for questions or comments.
Things tend to always be at least a little odd in the wrestling world, but sometimes the Georgia wrestling scene gets even wackier than usual. This weekend some of the strangest local and national promotions host events outside the realm of what some wrestling fans are accustomed to seeing. Monstrosity Championship Wrestling returns to Club Famous May 3 and WrestleForce‘s “The Juggernaut” Jon Malus wants to issue a special challenge to a member of the MCW roster. Will he reveal his target to Wrestling with Pop Culture and Team All You Can Eat’s Matt Hankins on tonight’s Georgia Wrestling Now? Chikara also makes its Georgia debut May 4 with The Ghost of You Clings, so we’ll be talking to the Batiri’s Kobald about his grudge match against Amasis this Saturday. GWN regular Matt “Sex” Sells will also let us in on his recent Ring of Honor training seminar, his upcoming stand-up comedy show at the Laughing Skull Lounge and putting his career on the line against former tag team partner Ryan Michaels on May 5 at Pro Wrestling Resurrection. Listen live every Monday at 7 p.m. and call 347-324-5735 for questions or comments.

This week on Georgia Wrestling Now, Team All You Can Eat’s Matt Hankins and Wrestling with Pop Culture talk to Georgia wrestlers looking to expand their horizons in the near future. Our first guests are Tommy Penirelli and Anarchy Wrestling Young Lions Champion C.B. Suavé, collectively known as Hot Commodity, who challenge Seth DeLay and Da Fireman for the Alternative Pro Wrestling Tag Team Championship on April 19 at the Spring Break Bash, then take part in Georgia’s newest promotion, Progression Pro, the following weekend. Then we talk to The Jagged Edge, who has established himself as a dominant force in Anarchy, Universal Independent Wrestling and Platinum Championship Wrestling, but will be looking to establish himself as a national talent with upcoming matches at NWA Central States and NWA Edge. We also hear briefly from Georgia Wrestling History‘s Larry Goodman. Listen live every Monday at 7 p.m. and call 347-324-5735 for questions or comments.
While the wrestling world is still talking about WrestleMania 29, the Georgia wrestling scene has been embroiled in discussion as of late. One of the main topics of contention has been the current state of Rampage Pro Wrestling, one of Georgia’s most popular promotions that has gone through a series of shakeups over the past few months. On this week’s Georgia Wrestling Now, Wrestling with Pop Culture and Team All You Can Eat’s Matt Hankins are joined by Georgia Wrestling History‘s Larry Goodman as RPW Tag Team Champion and Blacklist leader Murder 1 calls in to discuss his experiences since taking over booking duties for RPW. Former RPW announcer Josh Wheeler also gives his side of things. But before we get to all that, former Anarchy Wrestling owner Jerry Palmer calls in to address the fallout from Hardcore Hell, as well as the recent controversy involving Old School Wrestling Alliance. It’s a GWN not to miss, and you can call 347-324-5735 for questions or comments.
