Del James on Guns N Roses, ECW and Consensual Violence: Devon & The Duke Episode 64
Whether you’re a die-hard member of the GNR Jungle, a pro wrestling fanatic, or a graphic novel collector, this is the crossover event you’ve been waiting for. On Episode 64 of the 3-time award-winning Devon & The Duke, we are joined by the iconic Del James—longtime Guns N’ Roses tour manager, songwriter, and the creative mastermind behind the new graphic novel, Consensual Violence.
Just days before hitting the road for a massive GNR world tour, Del sits down with Devon and The Duke to dive deep into his eclectic passions. From the grimy, anti-establishment glory of ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling) to the nostalgia of classic video game systems and vintage horror movies, Del explores how the "counter-culture" spirit of the 90s fueled both the rock world and the wrestling ring.
In this episode, we discuss:
The Impact of ECW: How the rebellion of Paul Heyman’s ECW influenced the attitude of rock and roll.
The Stories Behind the Music: Devon and The Duke share personal stories of how Del’s lyrical contributions—including the masterpiece "November Rain"—shaped their lives.
Consensual Violence: An inside look at Del’s gritty new graphic novel.
The Viral Challenge: In a hilarious moment of banter, Devon gets Del to agree that a match between The Duke vs. Cody Rhodes is exactly what the world needs. We need the listeners and the dirtsheets to make this happen! #CodyRhodesVsTheDuke
This episode is a masterclass in "chop-busting," mutual respect, and endless laughs between three fans who truly admire each other's crafts.
