We also give are own two cents on the preposterous affair of Avery Styles and the Chairs of Respect. For VIP listeners, we delve into the sad booking of Juni Underwood after Mike Bailey’s stamp of approval (in which we learn not to ask Mike Bailey for a stamp of approval).

Thu, 13 Aug 2026 02:30:35 +0000

SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

SHOW SUMMARY: In our latest episode of Alan4L’s ProWres Paradise, PWTorch columnist Alan4L is joined by the man who combines silky smooth vocal tones with encyclopedic knowledge like nobody else, host of “Between the Sheets,” Kris Zellner! And if we’re bringing KrisZ on board, it’s got to be for a big occasion – and that it certainly is. This Saturday will see the retirement of Japanese wrestling legend Hiroyoshi Tenzan in Sumo Hall, and that needed to be marked here on ProWres Paradise. Alan and Kris run down the career of Tenzan from beginning to end over the course of two and a half hours! Young Lion days, Murder Inc., tag teams with Chono & Kojima, nWo Japan, G1 wins, injuries, classic matches – it’s all covered as the guys reminisce fondly about a career that has meant so much to New Japan Pro Wrestling. I think it’s safe to say you’ll probably learn something listening to this as Kris drops his wealth of knowledge on us like only he can. Now on to Ryogoku!
