Looking to spice up your relationship? Try having a morning radio show repeatedly crank call your spouse about an upcoming cage match.
Sure, it won’t help anything, but you’ll rupture a few internal organs laughing.
This is the scenario that recently played out over the airwaves on Z104.5’s Z Morning Zoo radio show. Wielding a versatile soundboard of wrestling intro music, the show’s hosts repeatedly prank called a listener’s wife, offering a bogus pay-per-view package for an upcoming WWE wrestling match. 
Things began civil, but quickly ran off the rails into complete ridiculousness. 
The woman had zero interest in wrestling and no plans to pay $60 to watch John Cena and company do strange things to each other in a steel cage.
