August 13, 2024 Survivor Series 1987
The WWF was expanding their super-card menu and waging a war on Jim Crockett Promotions at the same time. In 1987 a wrestling fan couldn't have been more excited by the arrival of this new fantasy elimination match classic. We cover the 4 massive matches on the card, take a quick look at Gorilla Monsoon's career, the return of the mailbag and end the show with a super fun "What If" segment where we build an extra Survivor Series Elimination match with the wrestlers under contract at the time who don't compete on the show. We're breaking our own rules of covering a PPV but it was worth it!

August 06, 2024 Saturday Night's Main Event XIII, November 28th, 1987
Savage is on the hunt for revenge against a pre-main event Bret Hart, WrestleMania II is revisited as Bunda-mania takes a crack at Hogan's World Title and Bam Bam Bigelow makes his SNME debut against Hercules. There's a lot happening in the WWF in the late fall of 87 as Survivor Series is debuting on PPV. These two shows are intentionally kept separate story line wise. All that and some B-Day wishes for Mr Hughes.

July 16, 2024 WWF October/November 1987 Part 2
The road to the November SNME and the inaugural Survivor Series continues as we review the important happenings from October and November of 1987. The main event is a key tag team title defence, Survivor Series promotion is hot and heavy with a few stage interviews, Demolition shows why they are a dominant force, Ted DiBiase and a basketball segment create an iconic moment and we check in with the Spectrum Wrestling card from Philly and our man Killer Kal Ruddman! All that and we pay tribute to a band named after one of your hosts.

We wrap up our Florida journey with the second half of the final Battle of the Belts card. The show features a Road Warriors match, a fun look at the Bahamas championship and a man from the future!

All this and an exciting announcement about our next set of WWF shows.

June 08, 2024 Battle of the Belts II CWF/NWA, February 14th, 1986 PART 1
We're back for a second helping of wrestling from Florida. Battle of the Belts II!
The show ran a little longer than anticipated so it's being released as two episodes. This episode features an appearance of one of our favourite wrestlers as the White Ninja! The debut on our show of a very green Lex Lugar (note the "A" in his name) and a bonus match from Japan as his opponent Jesse Barr teams with Harley Race against the British Bulldogs. A "Corrections Section", a mail bag segment and plenty of 80's nostalgia.
