Dropkick Basement

WE are putting together our own versions of the ultimate Pro wrestling broadcast teams. That means Play by Play, Color Commentary, ring announcer, backstage interviewer and a wild card entry. Which crew passes the test.

This week we have another Major WWE Premium Live Event, the biggest party of the summer, Summerslam. So for this week's episode we bring back our rebooking concept and try to fix a couple of bad past Summerslam events. Tune in to see how we did.

Who is the Third Man? A question asked for many weeks in July of 1996. This week Tom gives this question the "What If" treatment. Let's see who that 3rd man might be.

The valets in pro wrestling are supposed to be a lot more than a warm body at ringside but hat happens when that's all they are. This week we take a look at some of wrestling's worst valets and second's.

We are heading towards the Forbidden Door but not one that you have in mind. This week we imagine a 1996 version of the supershow but with the WWF and NJPW rosters. Let's see where it goes.

Ladder matches, Lumberjack Matches, Cole Miner's Glove matches, Battle Royals, Cage Matches, Texas Death Matches, Flag Matches, Iron Man Matches, Indian Strap Matches, Singapore Cane Matches, Hair vs Hair Matches, Punjabi Prision Matches, etc. These are just a sample of the many weird and wild gimmick matches in the history of pro wrestling.

But what is the Mount Rushmore of Gimmick matches. We will break down the best and whittle the list right here in this week's Dropkick Basement.

Two of the best things ECW was known for: Great Heels and solid factions/Stables. This week the Dropkick Basement crew tries to pick the best combination of those heels. We use the whole ECW historical roster for this one. So sit back grab your favorite Singapore cane and see who drafted the best stable.

Get those brains ready for some wild wrestling related brain teasers

Let's make a list !! Who better to help us with a list episode than our good pal, Steve Mezzano from the "Count Me Down " podcast. This week's list is the top finishing moves of all time. Steve has his favorites lined up, what's yours?

Let's go back to Summer of 1997 in the WWF. Summerslam to be precise. What happens if Stone Cold Steve Austin needs more time off to heal his neck. Who takes his spot on top of the main event scene? The good news is The Dropkick Basement team has you covered. Listen to us rebook this scenario for smooth results.
