Episode 471 / Lee Moriarty

Lee Moriarty is an artist and a professional wrestler. Lee was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA and studied graphic design at CCAC. He is self-taught in the area of painting and his presentation at NADA Miami last year in collaboration with Orange Crush marks his public debut as an artist.

Lee’s work often depicts wrestlers in repose, including intimate portraits of luchador icons like El Santo and Blue Demon. His art reflects an often underexplored duality within the lives of pro wrestlers, resonating with his own explorations in sports and art.

In wrestling he is a professional wrestler with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and sister promotion Ring of Honor (ROH). Moriarty currently holds the title of ROH Pure Champion.
