Crossbody of Work Episode 55: Chris Hero

Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.

This week we are looking at one of the most influential independent wrestlers of the past 20 years, Chris Hero. We cover his 90 minute epic against CM Punk from IWA Mid South. Then we move on to matches against Bryan Danielson, William Regal, and The Briscoes. We also take a dive into the complex wrestling mind of Hero. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about: 

• Roommates
• Best trilogies
• Wrestlers we’ve met
• Post-sex injuries

And a lot more.
