Preview — Heels Season 2 Episode 5: Who the Hell Is The Condamned?
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.
Popularity is rising for the DWL thanks to Ace’s mysterious new character on Heels Season 2 Episode 5, “Who the Hell Is The Condamned?”
With Ace’s big surprise in the final moments of “Heavy Heads” comes a considerable amount of buzz for the DWL as everyone questions who the new mystery wrestler is.
But with the town’s attention on them, Gully is fuming, aiming to do whatever he can to get back at Jack. So, the next step in their cross-promotion goes into effect as he demands the DWL come to Dystopia for a match and get things going.
Meanwhile, based on the promo photos below, with the increased attention, Staci will be spending much more time helping with the business side of things.
With Staci’s natural curiosities about Willie’s recent strange behavior, it’s clear she’ll attempt to get to the bottom of it, leading to tension between the two.
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!
