Listen "Varsity Blonds"
Episode Synopsis
The Varsity Blonds, Brian Pillman Jr. and Griff Garrison, talk FTR, Colt Cobana, and Lance Archer. They also recount the Tony Khan nickname that inspired their gimmick, and the events that led to them becoming a tag team. Brian shares stories about training with Lance Storm and Rip Rogers, hosting freestyle rap battles in the halls of his high school, the significance of the number 41, and the request he made of his late father’s former tag partner, Stone Cold Steve Austin. Griff reveals what his plans B & C were in the event wrestling didn’t work out, and how he got his start backyard wrestling on his trampoline. Plus, the Varsity Blonds offer hair care tips, advice to their younger selves, and their vote on whether speedos are “hot” or “not.” And if you’re wondering about Brian Pillman Jr.’s mullet, it’s more than a hairstyle; it’s a functional career decision.
