Episode 123: ECW Anarchy Rulz 2000 (ft. The Apron Bump Podcast)

We've got a 3-man booth yet again! This time, Kyle from The Apron Bump Podcast (ApronBump.com) joins us as we go 22 years back in the past to review ECW Anarchy Rulz! Oddly enough, this was not a terrible show. Extreme Championship Wrestling broke into Minnesota with local boy, Jerry Lynn, going for the World Title in the main event against Justin Credible. Also, the FBI defends the Tag Titles against Mikey Whipwreck and Yoshihiro Tajiri. Rhino puts his TV Title on the line against Rob Van Dam. ...

Episode 122: TNA Bound for Glory 2007

This was the Super Bowl; the WrestleMania of TNA, and it was the 3rd one ever. Kurt Angle is defending his World Title in the main event against Sting after earlier in the month, Kurt attacked Sting's son after one of his football games and locked him in an ankle lock in a parking lot. Also on this show, Black Machismo puts his X-Division Title on the line against "The Fallen Angel," we get a tag-team Ultimate X, Ron "The Truth" Killings & Pacman Jones (who gets replaced) putting the Tag Tit...

Episode 121: WWF In Your House 17 - Ground Zero

This was a show after SummerSlam to get to a show to then get to Survivor Series. And even though this was sort of viewed as a "transition/throw away" show, it brought the goods. Not everything on this card was great, but there was enough good stuff here to keep the Marks interested. In turn, the Marks are bringing enough entertainment on this podcast to keep YOU interested. This was also the first 3-hour In Your House show. Stone Cold is still recovering from injury, so even though he's on all ...

BONUS: NWA Clash of the Champions III (Fall Brawl)

In September of 1988, Jim Crockett Jr. was getting ready to sell off NWA/JCP to Ted Turner, which would change wrestling forever. Also, they held their 3rd Clash of the Champions event, which was the first ever Fall Brawl! Was it good? That's for you to decide. Oh, and the Main Event Marks! Sting is trying to take gold from the Four Horsemen in the main event as he takes on Barry Windham for the United States Title. The Sheepherders also get a 17-minute match, so...there's that. Mike Rotunda def...

Episode 120: WCW Fall Brawl 1998 - WarGames

It was one of the biggest years in professional wrestling history but this event certainly wasn't one of the highlights of it. But, much like other horrible shows, Troy & Greg have a lot of fun with this one. This show was plagued by injuries, bad booking, and a new take on the WarGames match. Let's just say...it wasn't a GOOD NEW take. Team WCW faced off against NWO Hollywood and NWO Wolfpack. The man who got the pinfall gets a WCW Title shot. At least Chris Jericho provided some highlights...

Episode 119: WWF In Your House 3 - Triple Header

We're in your house for the 3rd In Your House! This time, all the belts (championships, pal!) are on the line in the main event! If you could describe the year 1995 in wrestling with one word, it would be "YAWN!" However, you've got the best of WWF's best in this event with Diesel, Shawn Michaels, Yokozuna, and (supposedly) Owen Hart on top! Will there be shenanigans? OF COURSE THERE WILL BE! Meanwhile, the British Bulldog, Bam Bam Bigelow, Savio Vega, and Razor Ramon on the undercard. Also, Bre...

Episode 118: TNA No Surrender 2007

Kurt Angle had NO SURRENDER in him this night as he defends 3 titles in 1 night. In match one, he teams with Sting to defend the Tag Titles against Ron "The Truth" Killings and suspended NFL player, Adam "Pacman" Jones, who can't touch anyone or be touched according to rules set forth by the NFL. In his second match, Kurt Angle defends his X-Division Title against "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal. Finally, in the main event, he defends the World Title against "The Monster" Abyss. Also on the card, Rh...

Episode 117: WWE SummerSlam 2002 (Greatest Show Ever)

This is quite possibly the greatest wrestling pay-per-view of all time! At the very least, it's in the top 2 or 3. We're going 20 years into the past to cover WWE SummerSlam 2002. Many things were in flux at this time in WWE. Steve Austin walked out and was arrested for domestic violence, the Rock was about to go film a movie, Brock Lesnar was proving he was "The Next Big Thing," Hulk Hogan's in-ring career was a bit more than winding down, Shawn Michaels is back and was about to start the secon...

BONUS: WCW Nitro 100 (08-04-97)

On August 4, 1997, WCW celebrated their 100th Nitro by giving the fans a 3 hour show that capped off with Hollywood Hogan defending the World Title against Lex Luger! This show took place just days before their Road Wild pay-per-view at Sturgis where we would get a World Title rematch that saw this decision flipped. However, it still made for a hell of a 100th Nitro! Also on the card, we saw DDP take on Ric Flair, Syxx facing Chris Benoit, Booker T absolutely destroying Vincent, a laughable tag-...

Episode 116: WCW Clash of the Champions XXXV (The Last One)

This was the 35th and final Clash of the Champions under the WCW banner. It also happened right after Road Wild and shortly before Fall Brawl. The nWo celebrated their 1-year "birthday" on this show (without Hollywood Hogan, by the way) while Sting was still on the hunt for the perfect opponent. It seems as though JJ Dillon may have finally got the hint, though, and granted him a Starrcade match against Hogan. Macho Man fills in for Kevin Nash as Scott Hall's tag-team partner to defend the Tag T...
