Kris and David are back to discuss the week that was January 8-14, 1992. Topics of discussion include:

• A detailed rundown on Jim Herd's resignation from WCW, with all three major newsletters chiming in with unique information regarding this major event in dirtsheet history.
• Just who is Kip Frey, and why was he chosen to replace Jim Herd?
• Lex Luger's status in WCW according to Jack Petrik going on the record in Matwatch.
• The awesomeness of the Dangerous Alliance vs. the world feud on WCW TV.
• Atsushi Onita and The Sheik doing battle in FMW, and how that helped gain the promotion more exposure.
• Bob Backlund wrestling Jerry Lawler for the first time ever at a WWE show in New Jersey.
• The Moondogs destroying job guys on Memphis TV.
• Eddie Gilbert booking the GWF and why it’s arguably his best booking run.
• Phil Mushnick's scathing column on the WWF steroid scandal in the New York Post as Titangate is about to blow up.
• The Rockers breaking up on the set of The Barber Shop in one of the most famous angles and misremembered moments in wrestling history.

We have a tremendous show this week, folks. We really enjoyed doing this one, and we hope you enjoy it as well!!!
