We let the Crypt Keeper out of his box for Halloween and boy did we regret it. This year he punished us with this vile, disgusting deathmatch between Jon Moxley and Brain Damage with the infamous skill saw spot from the legendary TOD 8, the same night Nick Gage nearly died and had to be taken to a hospital on a helicopter.

The OSWP Summer Vacation has come to a complete halt. Still trapped in Bill Watts’ basement. Bill is passed out in front of the basement door wearing only his boxers, a black cowboy hat, and a bolo tie. It’s been almost four weeks and the alternator for the OSWP minivan still hasn’t arrived and we only have two cans of SpaghettiOs Original Canned Pasta and one jar of unsalted peanuts left. We appear to have become experiments for Bill. “Place this under your tongue” he said while starting the next record…
