Matt Lee and Jeff Parker were Ever-Rise at WWE and just debuted as 2.0 at AEW. The Canadian wrestling vets detail their journey from the Montreal indie scene to WWE and beyond. They talk about their backyard wrestling days that started in grade school, the two tryouts and multiple extra appearances that eventually led to their WWE signing, and why their recent release was such a shock! They’ve got stories about working with Evil Uno and Stu Grayson on the indies, traveling with Sami Zayn, their friendship with Kevin Owens, and the assistance he gave them to better their WWE chances. They have tales about Terry Taylor, a great story about their first face-to-face with Vince McMahon, and explain how they were able to continually cross the border into the States without visas! You’ll hear the origin of the 2.0 name, what inspired Ever-Rise, and the beginnings and evolution of their YouTube show, “The ShowRULES!”

He is a riddle wrapped in an enigma. He is a man who has competed for CHIKARA, Dragon Gate USA, EVOLVE, CZW, WXW, FIP, IWA:MS, TNA, HOG, as well as countless other wrestling promotions during his near 20 year career. For our purposes here, he was a member of the ROH roster from 2007-2008 and a member of The Vulture Squad alongside Jack Evans, Ruckus, Julius Smokes, and even Mercedes Martinez! He is Jigsaw, and he is our special guest on this week’s edition of AN HONORABLE MENTION! We talk about Jigsaw’s beginnings in pro wrestling, how he ended up in ROH, and the evolution of his relationship with booker Gabe Sapolosky through the years. Jig opens up about losing the mask and how that came to pass, how things never quite worked for The VS, and who on the ROH roster helped him hone the craft. There is some CHIKARA talk, some FIP talk, reflections on Larry Sweeney, and this is just part one of a conversation that will continue next week! It’s a conversation with Jigsaw on this week’s AHM, brought to you by OPTIONSTRADEKING.COM, PATREON.COM/ANHONORABLEPOD, and presented on the CREATIVE CONTROL NETWORK family of podcasts!

On April 11th of 2011, the wrestling world lost one of its brightest stars, and most beloved individuals: Alex Whybrow aka the legendary ”Sweet n Sour” Larry Sweeney. It was a loss that extended far beyond the confines of a wrestling ring as Alex touched the lives of fans, friends, and co-workers in ways that surpassed a match or a promo.
The joy of his laughter, the care he demonstrated for the people around him, the interest he took in so many avenues besides professional wrestling, all that (and countless other reasons) are why he left an indelible mark on so many lives. It is also why this week’s podcast is dedicated to the memories of Larry Sweeney and his far reaching legacy.
As always, we are brought to you by PATREON.COM/ANHONORABLEPOD and presented on the CREATIVE CONTROL NETWORK family of podcasts, but this week would not be possible without the contributions of Karen Van Den Hende, Bryce Remsburg, Eddie Kingston, Orange Cassidy, Chuck Taylor, Colin Delaney, Joe Sposto aka Leonard Chikarason, Bobby Dempsey, Rhett Titus, our own Zach Johnson, Peter Melnick, Sal Rinauro, and many others.
Thank you all for helping us share Larry Sweeney’s life with the world, and for ensuring his memory lives on through all who knew him and loved him.
