GENTLEMAN'S CHOICE is the story of a truly nice guy who became a total jerk when he was drinking. When the STEROID GHB was added to the mix he became truly dangerous. A trained architect and judo competition winner from England, and a man with strong will and ambition, Chris Adams sought fame and fortune in America. He achieved it as a professional wrestler in the mid-1980 s as Gentleman Chris Adams. At the peak of his career, he was performing in front of tens of thousands in stadiums and arenas with wrestling legends including Kerry and Kevin Von Erich. Adams submitted to the temptations that accompany fame and fortune. As soon as things were starting to go really well, other things started to go seriously wrong. He got involved with the wrong crowd, accidentally killed a girlfriend, assaulted men and women, spent time in prison, and ultimately perished at the hands of his best friend.

The Penis Party features a mix of comedy and great workers to hopefully guarantee an enjoyable night of action.

If you would have told a 15 year old Kevin Steen that one day he would wrestle Matt Hardy, he may not have believed you. So, lets just call this the Surreal Edition of The Kevin Steen Show because sitting across from Kevin is none other than Matt Hardy himself. Matt is one of the most polarizing figures in pro wrestling today. Some people are huge Hardy fans and some of the "smart" fans hates everything he stands for in wrestling. Kevin explores this strange dichotomy throughout the interview and its seems to be one of the recurring themes. It's also the first time Matt Hardy has opened up, on camera, since his recent battle with personal demons.

Sorry! We did it again and brought this show back. Why? We don't know but we sincerely apologize. Dan is joined on this episode as always with Tony Deppen and David Starr.

At 2:37 am to be exact, Kevin shares a conversation and a pizza with the Young Bucks. Several controversial topics are covered such as their obsession with Super Kicks and their relationship with PWG referee Rick Knox. Also, something about not shaking hands with someone is brought up. I can't remember... it was pretty late and pizza makes me sleepy.

On this episode of "Developmentally Speaking" Bull James is back with two guests who offer a completely different view on the developmental system. Bull is joined by Kevin Thorn and Mike Bucci aka Nova and why do these two offer a such a unique look? Well Kevin was around when it all started back in OVW, Nova was in it and was in the office over the developmental system. Don't miss this episode as you get to learn about the early days of the system and what it was like hiring and firing wrestlers. Things certainly have changed over the years from the places they train to the wrestlers themselves. So sit back and enjoy Developmentally Speaking with Kevin Thorn and Mike Bucci.

Happy Birthday PWG!!! For the small percentage of the wrestling world who have no souls and hate PWG love fests, we are doing an entire Kevin Steen show about PWG just to stick it to those miserable bastards. Just kidding, we are doing it because PWG is awesome. Who is better to talk to just a few hours before PWG's tenth birthday party than Excalibur, one of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla's founding fathers and literally the voice of the company? For some bonus footage, we take The Kevin Steen Show cameras to American Legion Post #308 in Reseda, CA and talk with some of the incredible PWG fans minutes before the doors open at PWG TEN.

Kevin sits down with former Ring of Honor booker and current creative mastermind behind Dragon Gate USA and Evolve Wrestling, Gabe Sapolsky.

This edition features the one of a kind "Big LG" Doc Gallows, "Campus Legend" Brad Attitude and "Agent T" the artist formally known as Camacho. This edition is full of crazy stories, insane antics and deep insight into the signing process and developmental territories. Doc shares stories of trying out for Tough Enough and his little "dickie doo" making an appearance while a certain infamous trainer screamed at him, his glory days in OVW, the intense training and everybody's favorite Dhalib (The Great Khali) Duty. Brad Attitude tells his heartfelt story of finally getting signed after doing years of extra work and the heartbreak that followed. T talks about growing up the son of Haku, and him and his brother (Tama Tonga) struggling to get a break in the business. All in all, this edition is full of fun tales, behind the scenes chicanery, and some really powerful heartfelt moments, so raise a toast to developmental and enjoy!

Every time Davey Richards sits down in front of a Highspots.com camera, there is usually a follow up phone call from his current management cringing from its aftermath. The good news is we expect nothing different this time around. Our original sit down with Kevin and Davey (known then as VERSUS) actually gave birth to the Kevin Steen show. Just when you thought everything was all warm and fuzzy with the American Wolf, he somehow has managed to ruffle old feathers once again. From the NXT try outs, outspoken opinions about ROH that made even Kevin Steen uneasy, to his very recent TNA Wrestling debut, Davey has a lot of explaining to do!

Anytime Kevin Steen talks the wrestling fans listen and always want more. Well, Highspots.com has listen to those fans that demand more and that is why we are giving you, The Kevin Steen Show. We provide Kevin with a set and camera crew and the rest is up to him. Which could ended up being a legal nightmare for us but that's what we signed up for I guess. This debut episode is a perfect example of that. Kevin decided to have Michael Elgin on as his debut guest. Steen gets Elgin to talk about a wide variety topics from his conception in Mexico to his birth which ruined his moms chances to be in the movie "Over the Top" to wearing awful wrestling gear to golden showers. So yeah, Kevin is not your run of the mill interviewers. Also, making maybe a one off appearance as Kevin's co host is, Cheeseburger. Needless to say he is no Ed McMahon but he did challenge Elgin to an arm wrestling match. Any bets on who won?

Sometimes on the Kevin Steen Show we get a chance to shine a light on how remarkable a person is outside the ring and this is one of those times. To a lot of people Rich Swann is the "flippy flippy guy" from DGUSA and PWG, but his athletic talent is just the tip of the iceberg. As a teenager, Rich found himself living by himself in the ghettos of Baltimore. Instead of making excuses, Rich looked for solutions and found one in Pro Wrestling. In a short period of time, Rich Swann became regarded as one of the best high flyers on the indy scene despite his legit fear of heights. Eventually, Rich got to travel to Japan and make a name for himself both in wrestling and singing in the streets of Kobe. Speaking of music, we also have a very special bonus on this edition of the Kevin Steen Show. We hunt down a guitar and we let Rich play a few diddys for us including the CZW theme. I know we say it a lot, but we mean it this time, this is a must see episode of the Kevin Steen Show.

Tomato? Tommaso? Same thing. The only difference is Tommaso packs one heck of a punch, just ask anyone who grew up with him. In this episode of The Kevin Steen Show we sit down with The Sicilian Psychopath, Tommaso Ciampa. We discuss everything from grade school fights with other kids, to middle school fights with other kids, to high school fights with other kids. All the important issues are covered with the man who is lovely nicknamed, Dumb Ass Tomato. When we finally get around to talking about wrestling, it starts very positive but turns sour very quickly. Tommaso quickly went from being on Smackdown with the Undertaker to hating life in OVW. The Art of Wrestling podcast covered the dark times that followed, but we get into the comeback that is now in full swing for Tommaso. The Sicilian Psychopath's interview on The Kevin Steen Show is one of our best because crazy people aren't so F'n boring.

Normally when a guest on The Kevin Steen Show sees the Kane Mask on set, it is always a great ice breaker, and Nigel McGuinness is no exception. Unlike all the other guests, the sight of the Kane Mask brings up a extremely low point in Nigel's life were he was forced to dress up like Kane himself on a tour in England. Somehow this story didn't make the cut on Nigel's great documentary, "The Last of McGuinness". Speaking of Nigel's documentary, Kevin digs even further into Nigel's thought process behind the project and some of the powerful issues that it brought up. Kevin even does some personal inventory of his own about his feelings on success and failure. Luckily for these searching souls, this episode was filmed on a couch that may or may not have been in a psychiatrist's office before it landed in Nigel's swank LA apartment. Anyways, we hope you are ready watch Steen dig deep into Nigel's psyche of our "mate" and yours, Nigel McGuinness on The Kevin Steen Show. Cheers!

This interview starts off with Kyle pouring an energy drink into a Goldberg coffee mug. So, needless to say, things start off pretty intense. Kevin sits down with Kyle O' Reilly who has been on an absolute tear in PWG and ROH. Kevin is sure to cover all the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla stories, that place where all the best wrestling in the world happens, as well as all the other career highlights that Kyle has had such as signing with ROH, teaming with Adam Cole, being sleazy with Davey and being one half of reDRagon

Brian's back with an all new installment of Developmentally Speaking. Filmed over a crazy Wrestelcon 2016 weekend, Brian sits down with Matt Striker, Shelton Benjamin, & Karlee Perez. This trio all took different paths to make it in the fed and each share heartfelt insight into the trials and triumphs of pursuing their dream.

Well it's time to say goodbye and get a real job working at the GAP. Kevin is moving to Florida for some odd reason and said he couldn't do the Kevin Steen Show anymore. What better way to go out then having as guests the tag team that has sold more t-shirts than anyone else in the history of indy wrestling, The Young Bucks. From Matt Rushmore to the Bullet Club, Matt and Nick talk about being in the two most over factions in pro wrestling today. Also, find out why they call Nick the "Indytaker" and why you won't see the Young Bucks in DGUSA any time soon. Spoiler Alert: it's the same reason. It's appropriate that the Young Bucks were Kevin's first guests nearly two years ago on the Tag Team Edition and also his last guests in his swan song . So, sit back and enjoy as we ride off into the same sunset.

This edition of The Kevin Steen Show features Chuck Taylor, the wrestler, not the salesman. Chuck is known as the leader of the "Gentleman's Club" even though he has kicked multiple girls in the face, capo kicked a PWG fan, and had 2 knives pulled on him in one incident. One of our goals for this interview was to dig into his "awkward relationship" with Ricochet. He claims they never banged, but we are going to get to the bottom of it one way or another. Chuck Taylor may tell you this is a subpar episode of the Kevin Steen Show, but don't listen to him. It's a lot like a bottle of Kentucky Gentleman Bourbon, top-shelf.

Does Kevin Steen have the best guests, or what? Chris Hero's welcome back to the Independent Scene includes an appearance on The Kevin Steen Show. There is no need for the Wikipedia print out on this interview, Kevin and Chris go way back to the dysfunctional days of CZW (which we love talking about) up to the wonderment and magic that is Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. Before we get to all that, Kevin and Chris thoroughly discuss the "legends" of Quebec wrestling such as Green Phantom, Iceberg, Face of Death, Razor Revolution and the majestic, Lil Asshole. Oh yeah, Chris Hero also talks about his time as Kassius Ohno while in NXT and being one of the first groups of development talent to use the brand new Performance Center.

On this episode of Developmentally Speaking Bull James is joined by John Morrison and Brian Cage. Brian and John had very different experiences making it into the Development system for WWE. They both share their unique journey into the system and do pretty spot on John Laurinitas impressions. Don't miss this episode as both men share their trials and triumphs from being apart of the system that makes superstars.
