#TheEternalFight’s second episode gets not only a bit fun but ‘Rowdy’, with Australian flyweight and UFC’s Nadia Kassem citing Ronda Rousey as the inspiration for her to start training in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Things get simultaneously emotional and banter-filled, as she sits down with Gen to crack open her last fight with US flyweight powerhouse Montana De La Rosa, the transition up to flyweight, her training gym Australian Top Team being in her corner, and her struggles with depression.
The Eternal Fight strives to share the stories of the women’s evolution in combat sports, from wrestling to boxing and MMA. Featuring weekly episodes with industry guests and frequent recaps of key events, the podcast amplifies the current and next wave of female groundbreakers. Encounters across WWE seemed like a good place to start, with stories across the independent circuit (and some fight gyms you’ve probably never heard of) to follow.
It all officially launches today with a special episode, featuring WWE’s Senior Vice President and creative team member Bruce Prichard. From Friday 22 March, he’s bringing his own podcast ‘Something To Wrestle with Bruce Prichard’ to Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane for some nights of killer storytelling.
Sit back in your room, car, train, plane or anywhere else in between, as Bruce sits down for an intimate chinwag about the power of storytelling through podcasting, where NXT’s format could potentially elevate Raw and Smackdown, and the female athletes inspiring him across generations, from the icon Mae Young to current industry game-changer Becky Lynch.
