Episode description

Because why the hell not, this week features a look at the December 19, 1987 edition of WWF Wrestling Spotlight! * The "If You Only Knew" video from Piledriver: actually not that terrible! * Jesse Ventura blurts out what he thinks is wrong with Hacksaw Jim Duggan * Demolition doesn't like Brady Boone or the smell of Peoria, IL * Some background to the angle of Ted DiBiase trying to buy the WWF title that isn't spoken of much * How theme music impacted various wrestlers and the mystery behind whatever Jim Duggan's theme was on this show * The tipping point for the Honky Tonk Man's title reign * A bizarre trio on commentary: Prichard, DeGeorge, and Bockwinkel, the latter of whom has heard enough * Sam Houston vs Danny Davis in one of the least enjoyable matches of all time * Original 1987 commercials: nobody got more ass than the Stetson cologne guy, a promo for "Benson" and "One Day At A Time", fake British Royals jewelry, and a message from an Illinois politician * Crazy crap found in my mother's house, including a beheaded Hasbro figure! * YouTube Comment Theater!
