On this episode of Something To Wrestle, John Layfield and Conrad Thompson are tackling some of the hottest topics in professional wrestling! John weighs in on Avery Styles controversy and explains why fans and critics need to give the young second generation talent time to learn, grow, and find his own identity. Then, could The Rock have legitimately become a music star? JBL discusses Dwayne Johnson's unmatched charisma and whether his talents could have taken him to the top of an entirely different industry. The guys also debate Roman Reigns' legacy and why John believes fans will still be talking about the Tribal Chief decades from now. Plus, we finally get the origin story of BIG MAN TATER on a hilarious edition of Curtain Jerkers.
