Graeme Buckie aka The BuccaneerGraeme Bucky aka The Buccaneer is an indie wrestler from Australia.  Nick Hoffman sits in with me today and Graeme teaches us about the unique storytelling vehicle that is wrestling.

In this episode:

  • Which countries have big wrestling cultures (a big surprise in here) and how a wrestler moves up the ranks
  • How Graeme connected with his tag team partner and how they devise storylines
  • The training that goes into learning to wrestle and how they improvise in happens in the ring
  • The delicate balance between being a good wrestler and “building a brand”

 

Check out The Buccaneer and Cesar vs. VIP in a Rum on a Pole match. The winner is the team who can retrieve the bottle of rum that hangs above the ring on the top of a pole.
