Preview — Heels Season 2 Episode 2: The Journey is the Obstacle
This piece was written during the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Without the labor of the writers and actors currently on strike, the series being covered here wouldn’t exist.
Ace ventures off on his own, hoping to find himself on Heels Season 2 Episode 2, “The Journey is the Obstacle.”
After an informative season premiere with “Ten-Bell Salute,” which revolved around flashbacks to the beginning of Ace’s wrestling career, the series will pick back up in the present time with Ace struggling to get over Jack’s actions.
Meanwhile, Jack must focus on repairing the relationship between him and Ace/Staci and maintaining and riding the wave of success the DWL is experiencing after Crystal’s win last season.
But can he focus on the business with his brother out of the picture?
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!
Episode Description:
Ace begins what he hopes will be his journey of spiritual awakening. But meanwhile, back in Duffy, the collective elation from the South Georgia State Fair is fading fast. The financial vultures are circling after the DWL’s success. Can Jack balance his personal life and wrestling? How will the DWL follow up on such a smashing event? And can they do it without Ace?
