What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This podcast has been a staple in wrestling content, with Sparks serving as a reliable and engaging voice for years, which makes its current state all the more frustrating. The extended hiatus feels less like a planned break and more like a lack of direction, especially given how frequently listeners were assured that new episodes were on the way. Those promises, unfortunately, have become a pattern with teased returns that never fully materialize. As a longtime listener, it’s tough to not feel let down.

Stewart Says · Apr 2026

I absolutely love Wrassle Rap! The perfect blend of wrestling, hip-hop culture & more! A unique and entertaining podcast that keeps me hooked every episode and never feels repetitive. Emilio & Vin bring infectious energy, insightful and entertaining commentary. Wrassle Rap is a stable in my podcast lineup!

Awesome Aguilar · Jan 2024

Wrasslerap has been a staple in my podcast feed since the days of SoundCloud and Stashed Media. It’s fun listening in every week and hearing the Two Man Power Trip of Transitions discuss everything from the hottest topics in wrestling to Sparks’ Baywatch marathon watch. The guests Vin and Emilio bring to the pod offer insightful and thought provoking opinions as well as provide for good dialogue with our distinguished hosts. Keep up the quality work fellas, I look forward to more episodes and it truly makes my heart happy to have WrassleRap around for as long as it has been.

Audio quality? Elite. Content? A1. Host Emilio Sparks balances his kayfabe and shoot lifes to provide listeners with a great podcast using his wealth of knowledge from years of watching various promotions around the world. 5 stars and he doesn’t even need to record the show at the Tokyo Dome.
