HUGE POP!

Over the last couple of weeks, wrestling legend Gail Kim has suddenly found herself marked as a controversial figure that fans want to cancel.  Why?  Because she gave her opinion on the way certain matches are produced, spoke her mind about death matches and talked about the inappropriate sexualization of female talent.  She even found herself attacked by a fellow wrestler online. Every major podcast in the world reached out to Gail for an interview - but she is here on HUGE POP!   In her first interview since the controversy all boiled over, Gail speaks at length about each situation, giving her perspective, and takes on all challenges. You do NOT want to miss this! Also on the show, AntU from Wrestling Republic joins Donnie and Jimmy to go through the Pops and Flops and discuss a variety of topics in the round table. Check it out!
