Wrestling Mayhem Show 972: Is Wrestling Only for the Rich Now? | Enjoy Wrestling Champion Mikey Montgomery Talks Supersonic & More
In WMS 972, we’re joined by Enjoy Wrestling Champion Mikey Montgomery, fresh off his recent title defenses and just days away from the Supersonic Tournament — an 8-person, one-night tournament set for his birthday on September 6th in Pittsburgh.
🎂 Supersonic Stakes:
Mikey shares how much the Enjoy title means to him, how he’s training for back-to-back matches, and why this inclusive championship is about more than just gold. With competitors like Effy, Matt Tremont, Sonny Kiss, Josh Bishop, and more, it’s a clash of indie wrestling styles with Mikey’s legacy on the line.
💸 WWE’s Global Move and the Cost of Fandom:
We dive into WWE’s increasing focus on global markets — and the price tags that come with it. Is WWE pricing out average fans? Is a “wrestling affluence bubble” forming?
🧑💻 Stephanie McMahon & VPN-Gate:
We unpack the controversy behind Stephanie McMahon promoting Surfshark VPN — allegedly encouraging fans to bypass U.S. platforms like ESPN. The ESPN execs aren’t thrilled.
📉 ROH Tech Fail:
Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor was meant to be a showcase. Instead, it was a tech nightmare for browser users. But Tony Khan salvaged it with a free YouTube release and subscription credits.
🎭 What We Learned:
Sorg learned that production tech can make or break a wrestling event — at any level.
Mad Mike sees a dangerous pricing trend in wrestling fandom.
Mikey Montgomery reflects on his growth since 2019 — and what it truly means to be champion.
