Podcast on a Pole is a monthly episodic podcast, looking back at wrestling’s Monday Night War, through the eyes of one’s of its biggest influences, Vince Russo. As the head-writer as both the WWE and WCW, Russo was involved with some of wrestling’s most famous segments, featuring the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, The Undertaker, Mick Foley, DX, Bret Hart, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Goldberg, the NWO and more.
On this episode of Podcast on a Pole, we take an in depth look at June 1997, as Vince Russo breaks down a month that saw plans for the King of the Ring totally revamped— including the overall winner and the cancelled Bret Hart vs Shawn Michaels and Steve Austin vs Brian Pillman matches — leaving us with a Shawn Michaels vs Steve Austin match no one asked for. However, when it came to getting his hands on Shawn, Bret couldn’t wait any longer, giving us the infamous backstage fight in Hartford on June 9th. We get the full lowdown from the man that was there.
You’d think that in itself could be a full episode, but that’s never the case with Raw in 1997, as we also look at the Undertaker’s secret, the implosion of the Nation, the heel turn of Ahmed Johnson, the three faces of Foley, the plans for Shamrock vs Dan Severn, the weird relationship between Lawler and Heyman and the burial of Sycho Sid — all exclusively on this month’s edition of “Podcast on a Pole!”
