Crossbody of Work Episode 107: Tully Blanchard

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

This week we’re getting the other half of the Brain Busters. We covered Arn Anderson before so now it’s Tully Time! We looked at Tully Blanchard as a singles champion against guys like Ricky Steamboat and Magnum T.A. Then we move to his time in WWF and his one-off return against Terry Funk in WCW. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about: 

• Duke basketball
• Encanto
• Rainbow connection
• Tony Khan isn’t intimidating
• The super atomic drop

And a lot more.
