Wrestling booker extraordinaire John LaRocca returns to the Fight Game Podcast in what we hope will be a weekly appearance.
The fellas first talk about the death of Burt Reynolds and what it means to their generation. Burt did do one specific big pro wrestling show.
They then talk about some of the news coming out of All In, including Marty Scurll's interview about why his match went over and who is to blame. John talks about the one time he got to be Kimchee for Kamala, as the guys talked about how hard it might be for guys who like to go over their entire match in the back to work with an old veteran.
They then review the first episode of the Mae Young Classic on the WWE Network. They talk about the sameness in the production from last year's show, the announce teams, and how they could spice it up a bit. They then talk about Tegan Nox and what was supposed to happen for her, Rhea Ripley's new badass heel character, Lacey Lane's small woman/big woman match against Vanessa Kraven, and Meiko Satomura's strong showing against Killer Kelly.
They go over the possible return of Shawn Michaels against the Undertaker and what would be dream matches against Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles.
Lastly, they talk about what John is watching these days outside of the normal stuff that everyone else is watching. His pick for the week is MLW Fusion's 20th episode featuring Filthy Tom Lawler and Jake Hager (Jack Swagger) in the main event. You can watch that here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkOmmKH7mHA.
