This week joe sat down with rising pro wrestling star Rika Wildlee, also known as “The Barker of the Bizarre.” He shared how his dream of becoming a professional wrestler started at just 8 years old — and how he’s spent the last four years grinding to make that dream a reality. We talked about his journey from training at the UWE Pro Wrestling Academy of Alexandria to now teaching the next generation of talent at the same school. Rika opened up about his recent success in the ring, including becoming the SWF Heavyweight Champion and one-half of the RWE Tag Team Champions alongside Athan Sorrow . He also gave us a look into his signature finishing moves, how different wrestlers bring different techniques to the ring, and what it was like performing at the legendary ICP Gathering of the Juggalos. From small-town beginnings to championship gold, this episode captures the raw grit, passion, and personality behind one of Louisiana’s highly entertaining rising stars.
