Ep. 50 - 'The Art of Wrestling - Part Two' with artist and ex-WWF designer, Tom Fleming

For the milestone 50th episode of Once Upon A Turnbuckle, Chris welcomes artist Tom Fleming back to the show for a return visit!  

In our last meeting, Tom shared many memories from his days as an artist and designer for the WWF/E in the early-90's, where he was responsible for designing the iconic looks for legends such as Razor Ramon, Adam Bomb, 1-2-3 Kid, Papa Shango, amongst many others, and even gave us the unforgettable Thanksgiving-themed artwork for Survivor Series '93.  

Tom returns to the show to talk about his brand-new wrestling-related NFT art project, in partnership with Fight Capital, for which he has produced 23 original paintings of wrestling legends including Andre The Giant, 'Macho Man' Randy Savage, Kurt Angle, Road Warrior Hawk and the British Bulldogs.  

We also delve back into his wrestling past to talk about his memories of creating the very sceptre that was used in the coronation ceremony at King of The Ring '93!  

Another one not to be missed!
