Exile on Badstreet #79: Walking on the Wildside Part 11 w/ Jeff G. Bailey & Dan "The Dragon" Wilson

Kris Zellner is joined yet again by Jeff G Bailey (@JeffGBailey1) & Dan "The Dragon" Wilson (@revdanwilson) as we take yet another Walk on the Wildside, discussing the last three months (October-December) of 2001. We talk about the genesis of the Jeff G. Bailey as Wildside CEO angle and how it was taken from the John Collins/Main Event Championship Wrestling fiasco. We also talk about the rise of Iceberg in Wildside, plus all the young players like A.J. Styles, Jason Cross, J.C. Dazz, Jimmy Rave, Adam Jacobs, Onyx, Lazz, Blackout, the Lost Boyz, and so many more who stepped it up, turning Wildside into one of the premier wrestling promotions in the world. We also talk about Fright Night 2001 & Christmas Chaos 2001. so we have TWO major shows to discuss, as well as all of the big angles that built up to those shows.

This show also serves as a tribute to James Michael Guffey, better known as Jimmy Rave. who left this world way too early on December 12th, 2021. This point in time was when Jimmy was becoming one of the best performers in the business, and it was very cathartic watching him at this stage of his life show everyone what he could do.

Rest in peace, Jimmy....we miss you, brother.
