  • Retro Wrestling w/Gene Jackson Episode #11: A "Spellbinding" Conversation w/Del Rios
    2024/11/09

    On this week's episode Gene Jackson welcomes Del Rios, who you may know as the Spellbinder from the USWA or Phantasio from the WWE. Del has had a number of personas throughout his wrestling career and in the process has had not only a pretty unique and extraordinary pro wrestling career, but the same can be said for his life in general. Del was the very first ever WWF "Developmental Wrestler" having his very first professional wrestling match at a WWF RAW TV taping before being hired on and sent to the USWA in Memphis to develop. As strange as that sounds that's not even close to being the most unique and interesting part of Del's history. Tune in and hear about the dangerous life Del led before finding his way into the wrestling business and the events that led him into professional wrestling. They discuss his friendships with Brian Christopher, Sid Vicious, Big Vito, and so much more!

    This is one episode you don't wanna miss!

    Del Rios is back in the game accepting bookings for appearances at events, conventions, signings, speaking engagements, as well as competing in wrestling matches. If you have a serious inquiry about booking Del Rios for your event, you can email Del at delrios43@gmail.com. You can also reach out to Gene Jackson via social media or at genejackson95@gmail.com and he can get you in contact with Del as well.
