The celebration of wrestling history takes center stage as the hosts announce that Herb Simmons will be inducted into the St. Louis Wrestling Hall of Fame for the class of 2026. When Simmons joins the conversation, we're treated to a fascinating yet troubling behind-the-scenes look at a publishing controversy involving Abdullah the Butcher. According to Simmons, Abdullah collaborated on an autobiography but isn't receiving royalties from sales. The discussion highlights the ongoing challenges wrestling legends face even after their in-ring careers end.
WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long shines throughout with his signature candor and humor, sharing untold stories from his illustrious career. He reveals the organic origin of his famous "one-on-one with the Undertaker" catchphrase—a spontaneous moment that caught Vince McMahon's attention—and recounts how Big Show once threw him from the ring without warning. When asked about "ring rats" (wrestling groupies), Long provides a straightforward explanation of this aspect of wrestling's road culture that many fans have heard about but few understand. The episode reaches peak entertainment when Long shares an unprintable yet hilarious story about Big Daddy V and Viagra that will leave listeners in stitches.
