Episode 134: WCW Starrcade 1992: BattleBowl - Lethal Lottery II
28 DEC 2022 · 1992 was a weird year for WCW. The WWF was rolling hard! Meanwhile, WCW had multiple World Titles, Tag Titles, meaningless prizes like The King of Cable and BattleBowl, WCW Champion Ron Simmons wasn't drawing houses, there was no Ric Flair or Four Horsemen, and Bill Watts was booking. This was definitely an interesting period for WCW, who wouldn't hit their boom period for another 3 years. However, they were still loosely affiliated with the NWA, they were bringing in Japanese talent from NJPW, and they were trying their best to build up BattleBowl and the Lethal Lottery at this Starrcade to mean something. That's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for them! Also, in the news, we discuss the WWF steroid trial, Nailz (allegedly) assaulting Vince McMahon over a payoff before claiming Vince sexually assaulted him, the British Bulldog demanding more money in Japan and getting shot down multiple times, Road Warrior Hawk having his way in Japan, and much more!

BONUS: ECW in 1995, Part 1
23 DEC 2022 · It seems like while the year 1995 sucked in wrestling, it is the nucleus of a lot of wrestling history. While WWF and WCW seemed old and stale, ECW was new, hip, and bucking traditions in '95. Terry Funk was back and trying to make a difference, Tod Gordon is passing off more responsibilities to Paul Heyman, Sabu pisses off everyone and is in and out, Shane Douglas is still being put over HUGE before taking off for greener pastures, the Gangstas screw over Jim Cornette for Paul Heyman, and much more is going on! It is a whacky company having a whacky year! We're covering all the news from January - June. Check out part 2 coming next Friday.

Episode 133: WWF In Your House 12: It's Time!
21 DEC 2022 · In December of 1997, it wasn't Vader Time...but it was time. Time for what? Time for Sid vs. Bret Hart for the WWF Title! While this show wasn't a complete crapper with no redeeming qualities, it certainly won't go down as a great show, by any means. This is the final stop before Shawn Michaels wins the WWF Title back from Sid in his hometown, at the Alamodome, at Royal Rumble 1997. On top of that, Hunter Hearst Helmsley defends the Intercontinental Title against "Wildman" Marc Mero, the fake Razor Ramon and Diesel get a Tag-Team Title shot at Owen Hart and British Bulldog, The Undertaker and the Executioner have a weird take on a Texas Deathmatch, and more! In the news, we discuss what's going on in the Mexican wrestling scene, WCW racing to sign the best luchadores before WWF poaches them, the upcoming Shotgun Saturday Night WWF show, another wrestling organization goes under, and much more!

Episode 132: WWF Armageddon 2000
14 DEC 2022 · Lord, I'm comin' home to you! This was the 1st and only time 6 men faced off in the Hell in a Cell! Kurt Angle put his WWF Title on the line against Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, The Rock, Triple H, & Rikishi in one hell of a bloody battle! Also, Chris Jericho and Kane faced off in a brutal Last Man Standing match. Team Xtreme faced off in a 6-person elimination tag-team match against The Radicalz. Right to Censor was aaaall over this show! The Intercontinental, European, and Tag Titles are all on the line this night. Plus, in the news, we discuss how WCW and ECW are going down the tubes. Who will be buying WCW? Scott Hall gets into a nasty bit of legal trouble after a drunk driving accident. There's more in-fighting in the Hart family. That and much more!

Episode 131: TNA Turning Point 2007
7 DEC 2022 · It's our last stop on the TNA in 2007 PPV train and man...this train station was in a bad part of town. We've reviewed some bad TNA PPVs in 2007 and this wasn't exactly extra special horrible and certainly wasn't unwatchable. It just seems like it could have all happened on iMPACT! and no one would have thought any differently. On this show, we get the 1st ever Feast or Fired match, Gail Kim defends her Knockouts Women's Title against Awesome Kong, Angel Williams and Talia Madison officially change their names to Angelina Love and Velvet Sky, Booker T teams with Kaz to face Christian Cage and Robert Roode, and the main event was scheduled to be Kurt Angle, AJ Styles, & Tomko taking on Samoa Joe and The Outsiders. Well...a member of The Outsiders didn't make it to the show, and I'll give you 3 guesses as to which one. In the news, we talk about changing booking plans for TNA, various injuries to TNA stars, the wife of a wrestling legend filing for divorce, & much more!

Episode 130: NWA Starrcade '87: Chi-Town Heat
30 NOV 2022 · One of the taglines for this event was, "Glory Bound." There was nothing glorious about this one as Dusty Rhodes tries to out-shine the main event cage match by going for the United States Title in a cage right before it. Ron Garvin was also the defending World Champion, and he couldn't draw flies if he was rolled in cow crap. The Rock 'n' Roll Express vs. Midnight Express match should have been great, but it was put on a stupid scaffold. Terry Taylor had to do some heavy lifting in the TV Title match against Nikita Koloff. "Dr. Death" Steve Williams and Barry Windham even stunk up the joint with a fairly boring encounter for the UWF World Title. The Road Warriors, in their kayfabe hometown, also get screwed by an infamous Dusty Finish that pretty much kills Chicago for JCP forever. Two other "major" things happened on this show, as Bill Watts' UWF was recently bought out by Jim Crockett and they combined as The Wrestling Network (TWN) and had multiple Title Unification matches on this show. Also, this was the first year that the WWF ran Survivor Series and put it on free TV to go against Starrcade on pay-per-view. Because of that, starting in 1988, Starrcade was moved to December. In the news, we cover WCCW and AWA trying to hang on by the thinnest of threads, the NWA's business tanking, multiple hirings, firings, and quittings, and Uncle Dave Meltzer giving a hilarious bad take on Ron Simmons, plus much more!

BONUS: NWA Clash of the Champions IX: New York Knockout
25 NOV 2022 · Getting close to the end of 1989, Ric Flair and Terry Funk brought their blood feud to a close with an awesome I Quit match in Troy, New York. Will Terry Funk or Ric Flair utter the words, "I quit" out loud and sacrifice their pride? Also, the Fabulous Freebirds take on the Road Warriors to open the show, Woman and Doom continue their persuit of the Steiner Brothers, the Midnight Express hooks it up with the Dynamic Dudes (Johnny Ace is gonna want to oil the tan pecks of Sweet Stan and Beautiful Bobby), Lex Luger defends the US Title against Flyin' Brian, and much more! Also, in the news, the NWA may bring in a failed basketball player to be their "new Andre the Giant" (because that always goes well), Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard are heading back to the NWA (yeah...about that...), Verne Gagne proves he's a gigantic jerk, and plenty more!

Episode 129: NWA Starrcade '83: A Flare for the Gold
23 NOV 2022 · It's crazy to think about Ric Flair being "the young, up-and-coming, next big thing" in wrestling, but in 1983, he was! This show was possibly the only time Jim Crockett beat Vince McMahon as he got a big, annual, tent-pole event to closed circuit before the WWF did with WrestleMania. A lot of the matches on this show were throw-aways, but we've got some big match-ups as well. Roddy Piper and Greg Valentine battle it out in a Dog Collar match, which co-host Greg deems "the REAL most dangerous match in wrestling," the Briscos (Jack & Jerry) defend their Tag Titles against Ricky Steamboat and Jay Youngblood, and of course, Harley Race defends the NWA World Heavyweight Title against Ric Flair in the steel cage main event match. Also, in the news, we talk about Vince McMahon trying to steal Harley away before this big show, WCCW running a Thanksgiving Star Wars event the same day as Starrcade, and much more!

Episode 128: WWE Survivor Series 2002 (1st Elimination Chamber)
16 NOV 2022 · WWE was floundering a bit, as far as money and ratings, in the fall of 2002. However, they were pumping out banger after banger on PPV. This was no exception! Raw GM Eric Bischoff introduced the brand new Elimination Chamber at this event and said that the World Heavyweight Title would be on the line in the hellacious match. Also on the card, Trish Stratus and Victoria do battle in a Hardcore match for the Women's Title, the Cruiserweight Title is on the line as Jamie Noble defends against Billy Kidman, we get a 6-Man Tag Team Tables Elimination match to open the show, 3 teams with 6 of the best wrestlers in the world fight for the WWE Tag Titles, and much more! Also, in the news, we discuss the ongoing financial issues with the WWE, TNA keeping Vince Russo around, the World Wildlife Fund continues their lawsuits with the WWE, and much more!
