Show notes

Marcus "Buff" Bagwell faced off and defeated many opponents in the squared circle during his illustrious WCW career. Now he's fighting his most significant opponent, the road to sobriety. He joins us this week on the Shadows Podcast! Marcus talks about the unbelievable life on the road as a professional wrestler. He talks about his career in WCW including how he got started, the 1993 European tour that quickly went south, being a part of the historic nWo, and getting the name "Buff". Then Marcus gets vulnerable and talks about a freak accident that left him momentarily paralyzed in the ring on live television, his release from WWE, his numerous car accidents, and his substance-related battles.
