Enzo Amore released the statement below through his lawyer addressing the recent allegations of rape levied against him that ultimately led to his release from WWE.

“Over the last two days, Philomena Sheahan has made multiple public accusations against Eric Arndt (also known as Enzo Amore with the WWE), including allegations of sexual misconduct concerning an October 2017 incident in Phoenix. Mr. Arndt fully and unequivocally denies those accusations. He is cooperating with the authorities in this manner and looks forward to having it resolved in a timely manner.

Russo is joined on today’s show by his co-host Jeff Lane and Glenn Gilbertti (Disco Inferno).

Lane mentions that GFW put out a statement last week, informing that Jeff Jarrett will be taking an indefinite leave of absence to take care of some personal issues. The dirt sheets have been reporting that this situation has been building for months, and Jarrett’s ‘erratic’ behaviour has been a distraction over the last few months.

In addition, there’s footage online of Jarrett walking to the ring at a recent Triple A show where Jarrett appears to be overweight, and it took him a strange amount of time to make his way to the ring.

Gilbertti says he likes Jarrett, and he considers this story to be disturbing. Russo likes Jarrett as well, but he points out that karma will eventually catch up with everyone. Russo adds that he always defended Jarrett because he was such a good worker in the ring, and he was also very dependable in terms of staying healthy.

Bischoff is joined on today’s show by his co-host Nick Hausman. Today’s show will be a question and answer session with Bischoff.

One listener writes into the show and asks Bischoff what he considers to be the new key performance indicator for professional wrestling, since television ratings are starting to become out of date. Bischoff thinks that’s a great question and he’s not really sure if the answer. There’s no denying that television ratings were his main consideration in WCW in the late 90s, but today’s promotions don’t seem to be nearly as motivated by ratings alone.

Another listener asks Bischoff if he thinks finishing moves are beginning to become obsolete. Bischoff says that the style of professional wrestling that we see today requires different things from the performers, and finishing moves aren’t nearly as ‘effective’ as they have been in years prior. Fans seem to enjoy multiple false finishes in matches, and this devalues finishing moves. He believes the devaluation of finishing moves is a result of the change in the in-ring product over the last two decades.

The next listener asks Bischoff what it was like to be a guest referee. Bischoff says that he hated it, and he always felt very uncomfortable. Being a professional wrestling referee is an art within itself, and it takes a lot of time and practice in order to master. He points out that a good referee does more than count to 3, they direct the match and are as important to the match’s execution as the two talents involved.
