WrestleMania Rumor Mill and Other Tomfoolery (ft. The OG Family)
Scotty Rock and JD are back for this month's OG Family installment of The Quinn Spinn. Today, we talk about the build (so far) to WrestleMania 40, including the return of The Rock (not "Dwayne Cena"), the evolution of Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre, and what the current dynamics mean for the rest of the members of The Bloodline. Oh, and we come up with a way for R-Truth to leave WrestleMania 40 as WWE Undisputed Champion.
This episode is more than wrestling. For starters, a 200 foot radio tower got stolen in Alabama, Scotty bought a house (in between a number of ailments), and The Quinn got roughed up during a flag football game in which he wasn't even a participant. These are eventful times!

From Surviving Cancer to Mr. Health & Fitness? (Quinn Spinn Solo Mission)
It's time to get personal on this week's Quinn Spinn Solo Mission.
