Hey everyone and welcome to episode 22 of the Eggshells podcast companion.

This is an audible companion to Eggshells Pro Wrestling in the Tokyo Dome, a book that goes into

deep detail on every single Pro Wrestling event to ever happen inside of Japan's most famous

stadium.

In this podcast we take a look at a different year in Tokyo Dome history with a different

guest every episode and at this time we're completing our

Super J-caste What's the what's what's a tripe a by facto

the super-j- a bi-factor, that's super J-K-Kar's bi-factor in two episodes

as this time we have Damon McDonald on the line.

Thanks, thanks for joining us.

Oh, it is absolutely my pleasure.

I mean, when you reached out to us and

Joel was kind enough to pass along those good words,

I was thrilled.

I mean, it's an exciting time for us. We're big fans of your work with your two books and also the stuff that you do on the broadcast and again I've met you a couple of times in my travels over there in Japan and always a top guy and always have fun chatting with you and spending time with you.

So this was great. I was thrilled to do it and I'm excited so let's get into it yeah let's let's go let's go let's go where were you

in 2010 Damon oh probably in a real probably in a real bad spot

probably in a real bad spot knowing me now actually probably really good you know what when he came to the new Japan stuff and even the pro wrestling stuff, I think my

fandom always had ebbs and flows and 2 and 2000s were probably in Ebb and then you know right around this time

that we're talking about is when I kind of got re-energized and reinvigorated with the wrestling scene.

I think the N& influence kind of I don't I want to say turned me off because I don't think

pro wrestling ever failed me but that style just left a lot to be desired for me.
