On this episode of Grilling JR, JR and Conrad take us back to one of the hottest times in professional wrestling! The build to Royal Rumble 1998 sees the announcement of reality era wrestling, the rise of The Rock, the building fraud between Vince McMahon and Stone Cold Steve Austin, the arrival of the baddest man on the planet Mike Tyson and so much more. JR had a first row seat to this historic time and holds nothing back walking us through the decision making moments that shaped our crazed fandom.
