In this gem of a show, Chris welcomes Brian R. Solomon, writer, author and host of the 'Shut Up & Wrestle Podcast'.

Brian has made his name as not only a writer and editor for WWE Magazine in the early 2000s but also as an author of renowned wrestling books including 'WWE Legends', 'Pro Wrestling FAQ' and his latest release, 'Blood & Fire: The Unbelievable Real-Life Story of Wrestling's Original Sheik'.

He is also a contributor to well-respected publications, Pro Wrestling Illustrated and Inside The Ropes.

Listen in as Brian recalls his time working for WWE, his own experience and take on the doomed WWF/WCW 'Invasion' angle and how and when he found his love for wrestling history.  Brian also talks about the challenges faced in bringing the story of The Sheik, wrestling's most hated and mysterious star, to life.
