On this bizarre, bloody, and brutal beginning to Season 4, Shane shares his passion for pugilism and professional wrestling while detailing an insane incident occurring in Beckley, West Virginia in 1987. Javelin throws, ladies' dresses, tennis rackets, and raging wrestling fans abound in this compelling tale from the mad mind of Mr. Jim Cornette. Can you sue for verbal slander in WV? Does someone punching you in the eye result in a loss of sexual congress with your partner??? Find out on this thrilling edition of Disinformed.
