Journey Through Guerrilla Island

Queue 'The Boys are Back in Town', the Islanders are back after a hiatus and find out The Secret of the Ooze! In this episode, it’s clear that Mr. Frankie Kazarian is no longer the coolest man in the world and all signs are pointing towards Colt Cabana being a 3 time Illinois State Hungry Hippos champion replacing him. We are introduced to yet another new faction in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla and talk up a storm about a first time ever dream match between Samoa Joe and Super Dragon. Curious Guerrilla does not disappoint with a ton of early 90’s TV talk, which begs the question, what Power Ranger and TMNT do the gang most identify with? Find out on the triumphant return of Journey through Guerrilla Island.

What a wild ride it’s been but we finally reach the conclusion of the tumultuous Kazarian/Pearce feud. A brutal cage match is the Reason for the Season, which will see one man say goodbye to their PWG career in a beautiful new venue (which definitely has a 2Pac tribute on its walls).

Also in this episode our islanders discuss the cult of the NJPW dojo, with Ricky Reyes as their dear leader, Samoa Joe’s sweet camo vest and Joey Ryan as a second rate superhero sidekick. It should be said, there is also some great wrestling on this show, featuring CM Punk vs Super Dragon amongst other delights.

Finally, is Super Dragon.... Joe Pesci? Oh well you’re in for a treat of an impression on this show dear listeners.

There’s 44 ways to kill you with a pimento.

Apart from that, this show sees a formation of a Disco led group, our first tag title defence and a beloved Tag Team depart from PWG. Wait, did I say beloved? I meant be-loathed! Get your podcast apps fired up as 4 hungover islanders take you through it all, never really finding out the remainder of the 43 ways to kill you with a pimento.

This month the gang sit front row to witness the carnage that Chris Bosh and his not so merry men wreck on the land of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, ponder whose side Scorpio Sky is on, lose their minds over the sheer insanity of Teddy Hart (yes, it’s THAT show) and marvel at the thrilling final act featuring the epic battle for supremacy between Samoa Joe and Bryan Danielson. Plus, questions from the audience and a very special epilogue from our World Champion.

So shine those binoculars and grab the champagne flute, it’s PWG The Musical!

With the dust not settled from last month’s Guerrilla Games, tensions are still high, and we have the small matter of the second ever Guerrilla Warfare match to attend to, in addition to the previously announced tag title match between X-Foundation & Quicksilver/Bosh.

There’s a 3 on 1 handicap match (sort of), AOL messenger commentary and the dream team of Joe and Am Drag, who will definitely co-exist! - all you could want from a 2004 independent show, which begs the question, what was your first Indy DVD?

Lastly, we get the answer to the burning question, just where in the world has C. Edward Vander Pyle gone?

With the fierce rivalry between Frankie Kazarian and Adam Pearce seemingly coming to a close, the gang were excited to see something fresh and new in their favourite Southern California promotion. So they got Frankie and Adam facing off in a tag-team match. On this show we also have the REAL fiercest rivals; Ebessan and Kuishinbo Kamen squaring off and the long awaited Guerrilla Games. Who’s side are YOU on? On Episode Eight of Journey Through Guerrilla Island, ICP members will be discussed, laughs will be had, Richard and Judy will have aired on some terrestrial TV station and questions will be answered!

Pimpin' ain't easy; and neither is podcasting.
