Callum Barnes returns for a look back on the May 9th, 16th & 23rd 1987 episodes of the Universal Wrestling Federation.

These featured two huge showdowns between former tag team champions, Terry Taylor & Chris Adams plus Barry Windham, UWF World Champion Big Bubba Rogers, J.J. Dillon, Dusty Rhodes AND Magnum TA's return to the promotion on commentary.

I would highly recommend checking out the May 16th episode on YouTube (https://youtu.be/XoeARy_Smrc) as it's genuinely one of the best ones I've watched in getting on for four years covering Mid South/UWF.

A whizz through of the last two tapings under Watts control before Mark Dunderdale (@dopper6) joins me for the May 2nd 1987 episode of the Universal Wrestling Federation.  

This was the first show taped post Crockett buyout, and featured One Man Gang defending the UWF Heavyweight title against Big Bubba Rogers.

We also discuss AEW at Wembley Stadium and our hopes/expectations for the show.

Erik is back for his hat trick appearance on the show, discussing the monumental events of April 1987 & the sale of the Universal Wrestling Federation to Jim Crockett Promotions.

We also touch on a number of other subjects including the philosophical differences between calling a match in the ring vs pre-planning, Cody Rhodes, the Ultimate Warrior, working with Steve Austin in WCW & much much more.

We also give an overview of the key events from the April 4th 1987 episode of the UWF featuring a tag title showdown between Champions Terry Taylor & Chris Adams vs Sting & 'Iceman' King Parsons.

Louis & myself made our third trip across the pond for WrestleMania just over 20 years ago.

Listen in to hear our thoughts on the event, plus tangents ranging from staring our own mortality in the face to unsavoury places we discovered on our tour of Seattle.

Matt Hardy vs Rey Mysterio - WWE Cruiserweight title

The Undertaker vs Big Show & Albert

Trist Stratus vs Victoria vs Jazz - WWE Women's title

Benjamin & Haas vs Eddie & Chavo Guerrero vs Benoit & Rhyno

Dan is back in person for a look back at the jointly promoted 'Wrestle Fest in the Tokyo Dome' show from March 30th 1991 featuring : 

Stuart Roberts (@wakefieldcanary) & Mark Dunderdale (@dopper6) are back to look at all the happenings from the last full month of Watts UWF ownership - March 1987.

We have a mystery jar causing a lot of friction between rival parties, the continued evolution of the Iceman King Parsons character, plus UWF tv title action with Savannah Jack defending against Eddie Gilbert.

There’s also a feature on the UWF training school plus Sam Houston & Ted Dibiase vs Chris Adams & Terry Taylor.

In the final 50 minutes of the show we also talk about our thoughts on the upcoming WrestleMania, Kenny Omega potentially joining WWE, Will Ospreay and more

The boyhood dream came true.....no I'm definitely not talking about Shawn Michaels - I'm referring  to myself, Louis & nine trips across the pond to watch WWF/WWE.
