We talk about the Netflix series 'Wrestlers' on this week's Access Louisville podcast.
Al Snow, partner in Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), joins us to share what it was like to film the show as well as some of his inspirations during his career and what happens next.
Reporter Michael L. Jones is also on the show to talk about covering OVW and some of the business people behind it for a recent story in Louisville Business First.
As he explains, the main arc of “Wrestlers” documents the sometimes turbulent relationship between Snow, and Matt Jones, founder of Kentucky Sports Radio, the managing partner of a majority ownership group that includes Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg.
Snow, a former WWE wrestler, is devoted to preserving the traditions of wrestling, including the outrageous storylines, while Jones is trying to modernize the way the OVW operates to increase its revenue.
