Just over a year ago, I saw this clip circulating around social media and was fascinated not only by the gruesome visuals but that they were inflicted on someone I wouldn’t have expected. 

That someone is Cole Radrick, a 25-year-old who has made GCW his primary home for the last few years and has been seemingly on a non-stop tour of wrestling throughout the world with 1000+ matches under his belt.

But he’s not just a deathmatch wrestler which is just one of the things we talked about in our near hour-long conversation on this week’s Josh Nason’s Punch-Out.

Some of the other topics:

  • Finding a home in GCW
  • Making a name as a traditional wrestler against the likes of Mike Bailey, Konosuke Takeshita, Alex Shelley and others
  • Dealing with negative feedback online
  • His friendship with Shigehiro Irie
  • Whether he has to psych himself up differently for a deathmatch vs. a regular match 
  • Learning the ropes as a promoter
  • Reflections on his world travel given his humble upbringing
  • His love of MMA and, yes, sumo wrestling
