Gregory Iron has an enlightening & inspiring chat with his friend -- writer, producer, actress, diehard wrestling fan and cancer survivor BJ Colangelo. BJ talks about her first exposure to WCW while growing up in Chicago, being a child beauty queen, how the Attitude Era turned her away from pro wrestling, cancel culture, coming out and how she feels the LGBTQ community has been represented over the years, and how pro wrestling and seeing Candice LeRae pushed her to beat pancreatic cancer at the young age of 23. Greg talks about his friendship with Candice, how she helped inadvertently connect him with Steve Austin, and for the first time, Iron shares how LeRae and Johnny Gargano pushed to get him signed to WWE earlier this year.
