A Work In Progress "AWIPOD"

After a brief break, A Work In Progress is back for the new year, continuing our journey through the final days of WCW. This week’s episode opens on a somber note as we share some sad news with our listeners before turning our attention to WCW Souled Out from January 16, 2000.

On the card, Billy Kidman goes one-on-one with Dean Malenko, Vampiro faces David Flair and Crowbar in a handicap match, The Mamalukes take on the Harris Brothers, and—yes, this actually happened—Oklahoma challenges Madusa for the Cruiserweight Championship. It’s WCW in 2000, and it’s every bit as chaotic as you’d expect.

All of this and much more on this week’s episode of AWIPOD.

Additionally, as we prepare for the Glenn Abbott Memorial Rumble on Saturday, January 17, we invite anyone who knew Glenn to send in a written, audio, or video message to [email protected]. Your messages will be shared during the tribute show as we honor a friend who will never be forgotten.

RIP Glenn Abbott — deeply missed by all who knew him.

This week on A Work in Progress, Brent and The Mayor break down John Cena’s final match, the very loud fan reaction to it, and everything that went down on Monday Night Raw. Then it’s back to the chaos of WCW’s dying days as we revisit Monday Nitro from January 10th, 2000.

Three wrestling legends step up to face Jeff Jarrett in three separate matches, Bret Hart defends the WCW World Heavyweight Championship against fellow nWo member Kevin Nash, and WCW continues to test everyone’s patience as only WCW 2000 can.

Was this Nitro underrated, unhinged, or just plain WCW? Let’s find out.

This week on AWIPOD, we fire up the time machine and dive straight into the chaos of the VERY first WCW Monday Nitro of the year 2000!

Join Brent and The Mayor as they relive the night WCW kicked off the new millennium with… well, some choices. From baffling booking to promos that aged like milk left in the Georgia Dome, we break down every wild moment with our signature AWIPOD comedy and confusion.

Was it brilliant? Was it terrible? Was it both at the same time?

Find out as we laugh our way through one of WCW’s most unforgettable “fresh starts.”
