Ring in the New Year with the most explosive, highly-anticipated, and potentially viral episode of the year! The 3-time award-winning podcast, ranked in the top 5% of all podcasts globally, is closing out the year by pulling back the curtain on one of the most controversial chapters in wrestling history.

This week, WWE Hall of Famer Devon Dudley and Duke Loves Rasslin don’t hold back. After legendary announcer Jim Ross (JR) publicly denied making racially insensitive remarks, Devon sets the record straight with specific receipts, eyewitness accounts, and a deep dive into the incidents that changed his perspective on the "Voice of Wrestling" forever.What’s Inside This Episode:

  • The Denial & The Truth: Devon responds directly to Jim Ross’ recent claims that he never said anything racially insensitive. Devon reveals why Bubba Ray Dudley has already gone on the record to back Devon’s account.

  • The Times Square Incident: Devon details the first encounter at the grand opening of the WWE Restaurant in New York City, where a heavily intoxicated JR first made his feelings about Devon known.

  • The Indiana Confrontation: A chilling account of an incident in Indiana where JR acknowledged Paul Heyman, Bubba, Spike, and Dreamer—but ignored Devon. Hear the shocking retort JR gave when Paul Heyman asked, "Is it because he's Black?"

  • The Johnny Ace Contrast: In a surprising turn, Devon discusses his relationship with John Laurinaitis (Johnny Ace), detailing how Ace was consistently respectful and why Devon eventually apologized to him regarding past contract frustrations.

  • The Ron Killings Connection: Duke revisits 2005 comments from Ron Killings (R-Truth) regarding his own experiences with JR and the "R-word."

  • Seeking Grace & Relevancy: Duke analyzes JR’s "burying" of Johnny Ace and utilizes Ric Flair’s scathing quotes about JR’s hunt for relevancy.

  • A Call for Reflection: The duo explores the spiritual side of the conflict, speculating on JR’s internal struggles and why he may find it difficult to offer the same grace to others that he expects for himself.

Why You Can’t Miss This:

Michael Elgin Tells All: Duke Loves Rasslin Week 495

⚠️ A Note on Sensitivity

This is a highly sensitive and challenging interview. It deals with allegations, personal trauma, and complex legal and professional issues. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

The Full Story: Michael Elgin Gets Everything Off His Chest

In one of the most polarizing and essential interviews in Duke Loves Rasslin history, former ROH World Champion Michael Elgin sits down with The Duke for an exclusive, career-spanning tell-all. For years, the wrestling world has traded rumors and allegations about Elgin—from theft in Japan to sexual misconduct and professional backstabbing. Now, with uncertainty due to a potentially career-ending injury, Michael Elgin leaves nothing unsaid. He confronts his accusers, addresses his past behavior, and pulls back the curtain on the industry's inner workings, demanding listeners look beyond the headlines and do their own research.

This is not an endorsement, nor is it a judgment. This is about getting someone newsworthy on the record to provide their perspective regarding their career and the experiences they've gone through.In This Must-Listen Episode, Elgin Addresses:

  • The "Protein Powder Theft" Rumor: Elgin unequivocally states the story of him stealing in Japan is inaccurate. He never stole anything, and the matter was fully cleared up. He confirms he is not banned from Japan and was recently granted a Visa, though his injury prevents him from wrestling.

  • The Speaking Out/Me Too Movement: Elgin goes into specific detail, directly addressing sexual assault claims, calling them inaccurate, and discussing a fan who accused him of mishandling her accusations against one of his wrestlers.

  • Legal Vindication: He reveals he has successfully brought people to court and won to clear his name, urging anyone with evidence of him breaking the law to report it to the police or sue him, making it clear he wants everything transparently out in the open.

  • The "Jerk" Perception: In a deeply personal exchange, Elgin thanks The Duke for his honesty in confronting him about his past interviews where he came off as a "jerk and an asshole." Elgin admits Duke's perception of his younger self was accurate, but he has since grown as a father and husband, acknowledging his past communication was "not ok."

  • Personal Infidelity: Elgin speaks candidly about cheating on his first wife and upsetting various flings because he would not leave his wife for them.

  • TNA/Impact Wrestling Fallout: He details how the promotion misled him, ultimately released him without valid reason, and hurt his brand, claiming to have emails that fully prove TNA was in the wrong.

  • His Final Plea: Elgin's ultimate goal is to stop being judged by what he calls lies inaccurately pushed by dirtsheets, emphasizing he has no criminal record, has never sexually assaulted anyone, and has never stolen.

The conversation is raw, emotional, and mandatory listening for anyone who follows professional wrestling. What is the truth behind the headlines? Tune in and decide for yourself.
