Mike, Sam, and Todd are bringing you an episode from a galaxy far, far away... er, sort of!

Sam and Todd are joined by Zeke, Troy, John (riffdog), and JR Goldberg to determine the number one masked indie wrestler card from Filsinger Games Indies game line. There were clean sweeps, there were 2-2 tiebreakers, but, in the end, there can be only one! We had a great time discussing our reasons for the selections we made and I know I learned some things along the way. Plus, we have out usual coverage of the latest teasers and news from Fed HQ!

We are joined this week by longtime promoter Thomas Keen. TK kindly stepped in at the last moment when our scheduled interview needed some readjusting.

Sam and Todd are bringing you a special *ahem* celebratory episode with a ramshackle mini legends spotlight on Mr. 4:20, Rob Van Dam.

Join us as we riff on the legendary RVD's career - the ups and downs, the championships, the standout matches and moments, and more.

The trio reunites to welcome Legends Of Wrestling team member, Uncharted Territory co-host, longtime player, and USWA booker, Cory Olson to the show. We talk teasers - if Sam can remember them - the latest wrestling news, and more. Then we launch into a discussion of Cory's booking strategies for his USWA - how does he prefer to introduce and build new talent? What are his thoughts on utilizing the lower card and enhancement talents? What are his house rules? And a whole lot more! This is an episode that's been a long time in the offing and we're thrilled to bring it to you, promoters!

Todd and Sam are navigating the Road to Galacticon on this brand new episode of Roll Up. We kick things off with an overview of the con - the tournaments, the interviews, the panels, and, oh yes, the reveals!
