In the hour-long live show, host Scott Johnson interviewed wrestling icons such as Arn Anderson, Ron Simmons, Kurt Angle, Rob Van Dam, Bryan Danielson, Ken Shamrock, Jake “The Snake” Roberts, Hacksaw Jim Duggan and more.
The podcast also included some impromptu action that took place when The Boogeyman walked past the table and Scott snagged an interview.
The pro wrestler left children with the following message when Scott asked him if he scared any children at the event.
“I want to scare all the kids into doing the right thing,” The Boogeyman said. “Keep your room clean, honor your mother and father. Do your homework. Eat your spinach. Do your push-ups, and say your prayers.” He ended his message with a menacing laugh.
River City Wrestling Con is a two-day event that started back in 2019 to capture the culture of wrestling and entertainment while providing family-friendly fun.
