Baddies, welcome to the new era of Wrestling Winedown. Because if Triple H can announce a new era, so can we. You know we had to come correct and we are honored to be joined by TNA Ring Announcer, Owner of Headline by HH and author McKenzie Mitchell! Lo & McKenzie are discussing:

• McKenzie's pathway into pro wrestling right out of college, which led her to TNA Wrestling, then WWE and now back at TNA in a new capacity of ring announcer (which she is absolutely slaying!)
• McKenzie's entrepreneurship, owning her own jewelry company, Headline by MM, building on her family's jewelry legacy and some of the wrestlers and friends that have rocked (and continue to rock) McKenzie's merchandise.
• McKenzie's latest venture: becoming an author! We chat about her process of writing, what inspired her to start the book, the determination it took to make her vision come true and what readers can expect from the book.
• McKenzie's advice to those looking to get into professional wrestling as a backstage correspondent or ring announcer, as well as advice for those looking to start their own business.

Pour yourself a glass and settle in: we’re uncorking another edition of The Life Of A Wrestling Fan, our series that highlights the lives of passionate wrestling fans who are also thriving professionals and creatives.

In this episode, we’re toasting with Adelle Platon, a journalism and content creator wrestling baddie with bylines including Vibe Magazine, TIDAL, Netflix and more. We chat about her journey as a longtime wrestling fan, from what brought her back to wrestling after a break and what keeps her interested in watching.

Adelle also shares her experience in the journalism field including switching majors in college from psychology to journalism, journalists she looked up when beginning to pursue the field, some of her favorite stories she has been able to write and our thoughts as two journalists on platforms using AI to write articles now. Adelle also shares how she has been able to tag team her career and wrestling fandom, including interviewing the GOAT, John Cena and how she has started to showcase her love of wrestling through her content.

It wouldn't be an episode of WWD without some manifestation. Adelle is manifesting BIG and gives her advice to those looking to enter the journalism field.

Grab your martinis and clipboards, we are making history with WWD's first draft! On this episode, Nessa joins Lo to draft our dream WWE Total Divas cast... but there's a catch: any woman in WWE, AEW and the independent circuit is eligible for a spot on this new show. Men draft fantasy football teams all of the time, it can't be that hard right?
