Listen now
Description
On this episode of Music of the Mat, Andrew is joined for the first time by Kevin Hare (Voices of Wrestling) to discuss the themes of the "Crazy Monkey" Jun Kasai. Kasai has bled, maimed, and scarred his body for 25 years to become one of the most famous and beloved wrestlers in deathmatch wrestling. Andrew and Kevin chat about Kasai's impressive longevity in a dangerous style of wrestling, what makes him stand out amongst other deathmatch guys, and his entrance music that is equal parts intense and monkey-based.
