Dorkside of the Ring

On the show this week, we check out what happened on this day in Pro Wrestling history including ECW's Hostile City Showdown. From there we move on to the Retro Raw Recap (4/15/96) featuring Marc Mero, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Sunny, Goldust and more! A dark cloud hangs over the "Into the Dorkness" segment as news broke today about many WWE superstars and other backstage talent that were released just hours before we hit record. We do have some additions to the collections including a 1998 WWF trivia game and a 1984 LJN Roddy Piper with kilt! In the main event, Adams father-in-law, an old school wrestling fan and observer, Don joins us for "Whatchu Watchin!?" Thanks for giving the show a listen! If you feel compelled, share with a friend.

On the pilot episode, Raw #151 (3/25/96) is discussed as we open the dialog with our weekly segment, Retro Raw Review. After that we go "Into the Dorkness" where we talk about whats on the horizon in the way of collectibles and action figures. In "Whatchu Watchin" empty arena matches and shows are the main topic as the world of pro wrestling adapts to the ever changing Coronavirus situation. We also briefly touch on Season 2, episode 1 of Darkside of the Ring featuring the Chris Benoit tragedy.
