What does it truly take to survive the independent wrestling scene and train under some of the greatest legends in professional wrestling?

Welcome to the Get Your Bell Rung Pro Wrestling Podcast, hosted by KG Landry. In this in-depth shoot interview, we sit down with one of the fastest-rising stars in the Midwest independent wrestling scene, Brandon Barretta "Strictly Business."

Go behind the curtain as Brandon shares the sacrifices, challenges, and unforgettable moments that have shaped his career. He discusses training under WWE Hall of Famer "Cowboy" Bob Orton Jr. and EC3, the value of old-school wrestling psychology, what today's generation can learn from the veterans, and what it truly means to "Control Your Narrative."

Brandon also reflects on becoming a two-time Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) Tag Team Champion with The Trifecta, what competing in one of wrestling's most respected developmental promotions taught him, and the lessons he continues to carry into every match.

We also dive into his experiences working for Herb Simmons at SICW, what it meant to become an SICW Tag Team Champion, and his upcoming championship defense against Bobby D. Brandon explains why SICW remains one of the most respected independent promotions in the country and why competing there continues to be an honor.

The conversation also explores competing for Harley Race's World League Wrestling (WLW) and NWA Exodus Pro, earning respect in locker rooms, balancing confidence with humility, and why protecting the traditions of professional wrestling still matters in today's business.

This is more than another wrestling interview—it's an honest conversation about wrestling psychology, discipline, perseverance, and the hustle required to build a career on the independent scene.
