It will only be Sean and Steve tonight, Katie is unable to speak. Hopefully she'll be back with us next week.

We are on an open situtaion tonight. We have reached out to our friends Paul Eubanks and Crusher Knopf.

We don't know who will be on or what will happen, but we do know it should be interesting and fun.

After seeing that we lost our reviews of RAW and SmackDown Live in the wake of the other news we will spend the first hour covering both shows. Tonight is of course the go home show before Payback so we'll have to see how well Creative has set up making Sunday's event a must see.

There is some very serious news we will be dealing with tonight, one story will cover a news story we broke several weeks back and a new one that broke this morning. The connection? Both people involved are connected to the RAW brand. Both stories could lead to some serious changes, including several matches at WrestleMania.

Could Vince McMahon be inerested in bringing a former World Champion he fired back to the WWE? That is the story making the rounds as trhis former World Champion's contract with another organization is set to expire next month. Of course we have to address the Sami Callihan issue. During the initial controversy the name of one of our friends was mentioned as having some possible responsibility for training him. We reached out to that person and we will talk about his response to the controversy. Cody Rhodes' "All In" show now has a venue and we will announce it. There has also been an announcement concerning NXT TakeOver Chicago and the next edition of War Games. Get ready for 2 + hours of news, talk and controversy with Steve, Sean and Katie TONIGHT!

Our long time listeners are very familiar with the name B. Brian Blair.  One half of 1980s WWF star tag team The Killer Bees, Brian has been synonymous with professional wrestling since his days in his native Florida. His travels throughout the United States and the world include time spent with other legendary stars such as Hulk Hogan, Jimmy Garvin and many more.

Now, he still makes appearances all over, including an upcoming date in the Chicago area this weekend. In addition to that, he serves as the President of the Cauliflower Alley Club and organizes a quarterly Legends Lunch in the Tampa area. This year's Cauliflower Alley Club reunion in Las Vegas promises to be special as one of the great performers of the modern era will be honored.

Brian has regaled us with many stories, including the imfamous "Cooler Story" with Dusty Rhodes and Andre The Giant. He has promised us many more funny stories tonight (Katie, have your inhaler ready!) so be prepared to be entertained and informed with the one and only B. Brian Blair.

Tonight on Rampage Rants Tuesday Night Turmoil we bring the turmoil yet again! We will be talking about the importance of following through with bookings whether it be the promoter or the workers. We will be talking the importance of not asking for someone's advice & then firing them when you don’t agree with the input your given. Too many people want to be handed ideas by other people & claim them as their own. We will be talking about theimportance of NOT booking yourself INYOUR OWNMAIN EVENT! The importance of not holding your main title. The importance of Nnot making the emphasis of the entire event revolve around you.

Too many "promoters" in 2018 should not be promoters… Too many chefs, not enough servers if you ask us! Too many people wanting to play superstar in their own company and neglect the talent of the workers they are booking & paying. Tonight we revisit some of the low rent "promoters" that are out & about today not only in the Midwest but throughout the world & we will bring up some past events that either this show or PWR (Now W.A.R.) has covered. It’s going to be a heated discussion with our hosts, whoever else feels like joining us, and YOU… Yes YOU! We want YOUR input! We also get into all the News & Happenings in the crazy world of Professional Wrestling.

After that, we will talk about why Paige kept her hands under the table in the pre show and the rest of Elimination Chamber, RAW, including that Roman Reigns shoot (which we will play) and SmackDown Live. We'll talk about a fan encounter Chelsea Green, AKA Laurel Van Ness recently had at an event in Canada, why Impact suddenly decided to allow their performers to take their characters with them.

It's going to betough but fun, you don't want to miss it.

We like him so much we've brought him back again! Tonight, for the third time we've brought back Sam Houston. His stories of traveling with his well known half brother Jake The Snake Roberts and partying with legendary NWA World Champion Harley Race have been entertaining you every time he has been on so we are bringing him back again..

Sam does also have a serious message along with the fun, that of a life that has turned around from the demons that were bound and determined to consume him. The man who was his own worst enemy became, with the help of a Higher Power, his own best friend and the self made victim became the victor!

We hope you will enjoy this encore evening with a man who has become a very good friend of ours.

We will be opening the phone lines early on as Katie found a very interesting and intriguing article concerning possible suitors for a sale of WWE. We'll discuss who the potential buyers are, what we think might be necessary for a sale to be approved, and what might be the historical event that might stop such a sale.

A new faction has been formed over the weekend in NXT to feud with SAnitY and it includes a name familiar with Impact Wrestling fans. Another former Impact star has also reported to the Performance Center and you're going to be surprised who it is. The Parkland shooting has caused an impact with an NXT superstar who has launched a GoFundMe page to help the victims and their families. It seems that a former NXT Tag Team Champion might be getting moved to the 205 Live roster instead of the former Ring Of Honor  star originally rumored to be taking the spot.

Another RAW performer, as you may have seen last night, has lost his last name. We'll talk about the reason behind it, and his stablemate, who is not happy about being left out of a big match on Sunday.

James Ellsworth has unveiled a new "title" that he will begin defending that is reminscent of a famous actor who got involved in the wrestling business. It also plays into the original plan of his role in WrestleMania.

All this and more, with Katie, Steve & Sean TONIGHT!

Original air date-2/15/2017

Back in the early days of our industry, with the exception of women booked by The Fabulous Moolah, womens wrestling was merely a side attraction, not something you would focus your main event, let alone your entire card around. The landscape has thankfully changed for the better and womens matches and titles now not only get attention, they are many times the main events. With the internet buzzing about both WWE Womens Champonships changing hands within 24 hours or so, Lucha Underground showing their women as strong and legitimate competitors and female only promotions such as SHINE and Women Of Honor, women are taking their rightful place as stars of our industry.

Florida based female wrestler Dynamite Didi is our guest tonight. She has been competing for 5 years and uses her Hispanic heritage as part of what makes her stand out among other women wrestlers out there. She is a fan of some niche wrestling that only the most hardcore fan might know about. We look forward to speaking to her and want to thank our friend Sean Mullen of Xtreme Pro Wrestling Booking for arranging this.

Join Steve, Katie and Sean as we talk to this up and coming female competitor.

We want to express our sympathy to those affected by today's tragic shooting in Florida.

 

Since our revamping of our program under the W.A.R. name, Crusher Knopf has been a mainstay of our program. In addition to his time as an active wrestler for Jim Crockett Promotions, later to become World Championship Wrestling, Crusher has turned his efforts to promoting and he and many of the roster of his promotion, Georgia Extreme Wrestling, have been on our program many times. Tonight, as part of our cooperative exchange program, GWE will be taking the entire program.

In addition to Crusher, we will be joined by the following members of the GWE roster:

Beautiful Bradley Bolton-Insane Wrestling Alliance Commissioner

Chris Raple-Georgia Wrestling Extreme General Manager

The Barefoot Bad A** - Matt Gilbert-Former AIWF Cruiserweight Champion

The Pigs

America's Gladiator Flex Steel

Every Man's Favorite Pinup Girl-Fantasy

Top Gun Chayse Britton

We are pleased to present these talents to you tonight and hope you will enjoy the interviews and learn more aboit this fine Southern regional promotion.

One has to wonder in the "creative" landscape known as WWE if by next week's Elimination Chamber go home show if it will be turned into a 30 man match the way they keep adding people. If the landscape were not clear as mud during the finish to last night's RAW, the live video WWE did on Facebook made it that way.

Friday night, both Impact, in a joint promotion, with Wrestle Pro out of New Jersey and Ring Of Honor ran competing live events with Impact broadcasting on their Twitch channel and Ring Of Honor running on the FITE app. A former WWE star had been advertised on one of the events but instead surprised everyone by showing up on the other event. We will tell you who that wrestler is and their announced plans for the future. Speaking of Impact, Ed Nordholm recently discussed what he did that caused a massive backlash regarding the situation with the Hardys and the Broken trademarks and probably doomed their attempt to keep them. They also came to an agreement concerning footage that had been shot during the Hardys Impact run that may be even more surprising. During that Impact event a surprise return to the Impact roster was also announced.

At the recent Championship Wrestling Form Hollywood TV tapings NWA Champion Nick Aldis defended his title against another former WWE star.Trust us, your jaw is going to drop when you find out who it was. Speaking of former WWE stars, another one tried and failed to negotiate a deal with New Japan. This might be another shock (or maybe not) when you find out who it is and what storyline they wanted. Jerry Lawler has announced the return of a regional show that was very popular in the Memphis area.

All these stories and more will be covered tonight with Sean, Steve & Katie.

Several weeks back, we were approached by officials from Dynamo Pro Wrestling out of St. Louis. After several false starts, we finally got eveything arranged and tonight Dynamo Pro takes over the show. We will be joined by these great guests:

Luke Roberts

Snitch

Brandon Espinoza

Makaze

All of these people are very accomplished wrestlers, including Luke, who also serves as the Media Director for the promotion.

We are thrilled to have all of these fine talents on our airwaves tonight, we hope you will enjoy it too.
