Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.
Nikita Koloff is one of the greatest Cold War-era wrestling gimmicks we’ve seen. From being a tough heel representing the USSR to winning over American fans as a babyface, he showed a knack for the business early on. We’re looking at him in a War Games match and matches with Ric Flair, Vader, and more.. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about:
- New Coke
- Bad haircuts
- Battle Cat
- NXT War Games matches
And a lot more.
