Freddie Prinze Jr. Set To Launch Wrestling Podcast, Xavier Woods To Be A Guest
Freddie Prinze Jr. is launching a new wrestling podcast.
WWFreddie — Wrestling with Freddie is set to premiere on November 17 with new episodes airing every Wednesday. King Xavier Woods will be one of the featured guests on an upcoming episode.
“I love him to death. He’s a brother,” Prinze Jr said to PEOPLE. “I’d lie for him in court. If he needed to get out of the country, I’d get him $100,000 and a plane ticket in under an hour. That’s how much I love the guy.”
Prinze Jr. was hired by WWE in 2008 to be a writer for the company.
“I was doing some really good promo work for them, which you would call monologues,” he explained. “I just wrote a lot of the lines that no director ever let me say, and it worked out really well for wrestlers. So I kind of molded from that into kind of an acting coach and helping them develop their own monologues or promos and helping them break down other people’s dialogue or, best case scenario, teaching them how to write for themselves to sort of take that third voice out of the equation. There’s a lot of funny stories, [and] a lot of stories that some people won’t believe, but I’ve already had a couple guests on and they’ve backed up the stories. Just because it sounds crazy, doesn’t mean it isn’t true.”
