The father of The First Academy wrestler Daniel Ward, Jr. wanted to give back to the sport that had welcomed him and his son into and he was looking for a way to help showcase all of the people involved in the sport.
“I was home because of the quarantine and I wanted to do something that hadn’t been done,” Ward said. “I wasn’t looking to only interview big names like national outlets, I just wanted to talk to anybody in the wrestling community that would come on.”
Since his debut show on April 6, Ward has hosted more than 270 shows, with his guests including wrestlers of all ages and talent levels; high school, club, college and national team coaches from around the country; referees; and wrestling historians.
