Slam University

Welcome to another episode of Slam University, a bi-weekly sorta-regular podcast chronicling the legendary careers of the greatest pro wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots! Listen in as hosts Joe Garcia and Malcolm Spinedi recount the most glorious peaks, the darkest valleys, and all the stuff in-between that makes up the fabric of some of the most colorful characters in entertainment history. In the latest episode, Joe and Malcolm take a three-episode detour to explore the meteoric rise of the three performers that made up The Shield, one of the most dominant factions in recent memory, and why they’ll be around WWE for years to come. Last up is the stoic Samoan powerhouse - Roman Reigns! Note: This episode was recorded just one day before WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins blew out his knee and ruined the planned main event for Survivor Series 2015 against Reigns for the title, so let’s pretend that we were speculating about a 16-man tournament for the vacant strap instead. Cool? Cool! Hosts: Joe Garcia (@Wons23), Malcolm Spinedi (@PSMalc)
