Despite being called the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania, WrestleMania 25 was not that. Nor was it a great show. From men winning divas battle royals, to Kid Rock getting way too much screen time, to John Cena being jackhammered into an Edge and Big Show feud, to the blood feud between Triple H and Randy Orton being neutered by a stipulation, this show was not great. However, there were some high points, especially when it came to Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels.

Weird gimmicks, multi-people matches, nonsensical feuds, BS finishes, and ignoring the rules. That and so much more is what you can expect from WWF WrestleMania XV, which took place in 1999 in the home of ECW, Philadelphia!

It was the massive event that started it all! Was it the greatest wrestling event of all time? Not by a longshot. But WrestleMania 1 is near and dear to many wrestling fans, and it launched Vince McMahon's WWF empire into superstardom! Troy & Greg break it all down, match-by-match, segment-by-segment, and run down their opinions on this historic show.

We've covered, in two different ways, WCW's inaugural Uncensored event from 1995. Now, we move on to 1996, where The Mega Powers take on The Alliance to End Hulkamania (real name) in a 3-tier cage match. This event has 2-on-8, 3-story cage matches, the Booty Man, battling Hispanics for the US Title, feuding Europeans, giants clashing, a disastrous Chicago Street Fight, and more! My God, this was a beautiful mess.

In 1994, Extreme Championship Wrestling put on their infamous The Night the Line was Crossed show from the ECW Arena. In 1997, their historic Hardcore Heaven event took place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Today, Greg and I are reviewing them both and having fun trying to figure out WTF is even going on!

We've reviewed this show once before, more in-depth, in episode 144. This was actually our first attempt at covering this abomination. We were more brief and concentrated more on the insanity of everything, having a ton of fun in the process.

The 2026 Royal Rumble just took place in Saudi Arabia. There isn't much to say about it. It was a fairly boring affair, as Rumbles go. But we'll discuss. Also, I'm bringing you the Dark Side of the downfalls of both WCW (in stages) and the NWA (also in stages).

From it's highest of highs on NBC to being passed off to Fox, then being cancelled, revived, cancelled again, and now back in its proper spot as a big time show, WWE's Saturday Night's Main Event has been to set to a lot of wrestling history. Greg and I talk about the greatest moments to come out of those shows and what it meant in the grand scheme of things.

In another unearthed podcast from years ago, Greg and I dive into one of the weirdest Royal Rumbles ever: WWF Royal Rumble 1995. From the boredom of a bleak wrestling year to bizarre booking, stupid gimmicks, constant run-ins, and missed potential, we break down what worked, what didn’t, and why this Rumble is so infamous.

From the carny days of The Gold Dust Trio and Jack Pfefer to Mexico, Japan, the American Golden Era, Attitude Era, modern day, the indies, countless companies and territories, and even the most prominent women to suffer in the business, I'm covering the darkest of dark sides of wrestling history. These are all available as separate episodes on my YouTube and Rumble channels, but now, they're compiled in audio form for all of you to enjoy.
