In this candid edition of Main Event Conversations, we sit down with one half of the dynamic Silk City Kings, Bulldog Pitman!

Bulldog dives deep into his wrestling journey, beginning with his old-school training under Gino Caruso at ECPW. He shares an incredible insight into how the COVID-19 pandemic, surprisingly, fueled his drive and hunger, which led to a red-hot singles run upon his return. Bulldog also opens up about the difference between training with Gino Caruso and Damian Adams, emphasizing the importance of psychology and not "gatekeeping" knowledge within the wrestling community.

Hear the true story behind the formation of the massively popular tag team, The Silk City Kings, as Bulldog explains how his friendship with Kenny evolved into an unexpected and highly successful partnership that they are now aiming to take "global."

Plus, Bulldog gives a firsthand look into the backstage atmosphere of a major wrestling promotion, discussing his experience as an extra at AEW shows in Buffalo and Springfield. He shares the unique challenges of remaining silent around stars like Max Caster, Chris Jericho, Edge, and Jeff Jarrett. Finally, he takes a moment to pay a heartfelt tribute to his late manager and beloved ECPW mascot, The Candyman.

The curtain is pulled back on the unrelenting grind of an elite athlete and student. Flash Carter’s life is defined by the Impossible Schedule: spending his weekends driving hundreds of miles for matches, navigating late-night study sessions, and fighting on just three hours of sleep. He sacrifices everything—listening to medical lectures while on the road and studying anatomy in the dressing rooms—to prove that both dreams are achievable.

But Carter brings more than just passion to the ring; he brings science. The film delves into his unique, specialized research on the very energy drinks that fuel the industry, offering a perspective no other wrestler can claim.

With the pressure mounting, he discusses the future of his tag team, the Shot Callers, and the dramatic evolution of his character needed for the major leagues. The question is no longer if he will succeed, but how long he can maintain this double life. His journey is a collision course of dedication, exhaustion, and destiny. Can he become Wrestling’s Next Top Doctor and the breakout star the industry is waiting for?
