It's review time, and this go round, we're gonna rewind to Halloween Havoc 1998.

Halloween Havoc 1998, most notable for the rematch between Hollywood Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior. An absolute disaster of a match, and quite possibly one of the worst ones I have ever seen. It was also the PPV that had an over run and cut out its feed before the main event happened!

I go back and take a look at the PPV. All of the good and the bad. It was an enjoyable watch, and definitely had some "WCW" moments in it.

For the first time ever, the Grainmaker Wrestling Podcast is joined by 3 incredible guests!

Recorded backstage of Rob Stardoms show to benefit the Selkirk food bank, which also doubled as La Sombras retirement match, I was joined by one half of Red Hot Summer Bryce Bentley, and Josh "Cheeks" Holiday to talk wrestling and what they've been up too! Bryce shares some stories, including his one of his first shows as a fan, and Cheeks talks his recent match with Impact World Champion Josh Alexander. I was also joined by La Sombra, who talks about getting into wrestling, and what the retirement match means to him.

Before that, I talk a little about the Timebomb Pro "Violence is Forever" show, shout out Tom Lawlor. It was an incredible show and is a must watch as soon as it hits IWTV.
