Scheduled for Two Falls

We're live pal!

After an almost 18 month hiatus, your hosts Ciarán and Niall are joined by Alan Maherk as they watch Fight for the Fallen, AEW Dynamite Episode from 27th July 2022 which may well go down as one of the greatest episodes in Dynamite History!

That means you get a live reaction for the famous Daniel Garcia win over Bryan Danielson, a live reaction for Powerhouse Willie Hobbs heel turn on Ricky Starks, Hook winning the FTW championship and so much more...

It's Season 3!

Just four days after his historic victory at Sakura Genesis, we  interview the NEW IWGP World heavyweight champion - Mr. Will Ospreay!

In this candid yet theatrical interview, we cover:

• Why Will believes NJPW is the greatest wrestling company in the world
• Will's recent victory over Kota Ibushi and the future for the IWGP heavyweight title
• Faction Warfare and his new group United Empire
• His key influences and love of early TNA wrestling
• The forbidden door (Will has choice words for some dream opponents!)
• His commitment to Indie Wrestling in the UK and Ireland
• The physical and mental preparation for Best of the Super Juniors and G1 Climax tournaments
• His relationship with Okada, CM Punk, Prince Devitt and so much more...
• He even cuts a promo on some surprising dream opponents!

Enjoy!

In eager anticipation of this weekends 2021 Royal Rumble, we are joined by the Irish Independent/Off The Ball's Michael Verney and KCLR/Diceman Production's Shane O'Keeffe as we debate which Rumble was the greatest ROYAL RUMBLE of all time.

Spoiler - we don't entirely agree.

That's it!

Enjoy.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Charles Wright, the man behind two of the most iconic Gimmicks ever seen in WWE - The Godfather and Papa Shango. He is one of the most genuine guys in professional wrestling and never took the business too seriously. All the ingredients for great honest conversation!

We cover his entire WWE career including:

1). His botched run in during the main event of Wrestlemania 8 and whose fault it was.

2). Why Pat Patterson thought Papa Shango would kill the business.

3). The story behind Kama Mustafa

4). WCW making attempts to sign him and join the NWO

5). Racism in WCW and whether the Nation of Domination could work in the current political climate.

6). The Rock

7).  Ron Simmons and shooting on Ahmed Johnson

8). The forming of the Godfather character

9). Where did all the 'hoes' come from?

10).  Being the guy scheduled to take on Owen Hart the night he died.

11).  Why he absolutely hated the Right to Censor

12). How we found out he was going into the Hall of Fame.


Thank you Charles!

This week we're back with another long form interview with a Pro Wrestling legend! This time it's none other than Soul Train Jones/Virgil/Vincent.

Love him or hate him, it's never boring when you're with Virgil! His stories are legendary and he doesn't let us down.

We cover his AWA days teaming with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's Father Rocky Johnson. We fast track to his early WWE days while also touching upon his bouts with very different superstars - Bret Hart and Giant Gonzalez! We then travel to WCW where he was the 5th member of the NWO before chatting Curley Bill!

What's he up to now? Tune in and find out!

Spoiler: He also talks graphically about seeing his own birth and reads some of the cities of Canada off a map. This is big.

This week we have the pleasure of presenting our exclusive interview with the WWE, ECW and WCW legend Raven!

We cover so much in this interview including:

His relationship with Stevie Richards
The difference between calling a match in the ring versus rehearsing a match in advance,
His advice to AJ Styles and Frankie Kazarian after "that finish"
Just how good does Raven believe AJ Styles is?
Raven's booking in ECW.
Would Raven like a managerial role in AEW?
Who had the better DDT - Raven or Jake the Snake - and how best to deliver it?
Who took the best DDT?
Why Shane McMahon should have played Johnny Polo and not Raven.
Why Vince McMahon did not approve of his relationship with Shane.
His tour with Irish Whip Wrestling and teaming with Sheamus.
Irish Druids and Mushroom sex parties (yes, really).

This is an interview like no other!

Enjoy.

Like every other wrestling fan in the world, we're celebrating thirty years of the Undertaker!

His career spanned from 1990 to 2020 and there will never be another performer quite like the Dead Man.

To put our own spin on things, we've decided to specifically deep dive into his World Title wins. Fittingly, there are seven of them and each of them tell their own story of just where the Undertaker was in both his career and life at the time.

We'll tangle with Hulk Hogan on two occasions, we'll meet Sycho Sid and then we'll head to the most controversial PPV in wrestling history (the night Owen Hart died) as Taker battled Stone Cold Steve Austin. Then we jump to the re-birth of Undertaker where he certainly had his greatest matches as an in ring performer and we meet Batista, Edge and CM Punk.

This is an episode like no other as Takers career jumps from the cartoonish, to the graphic, to the ridiculous and to the sublime.

Thank you Taker!

This week your hosts interview the "Worlds Most Dangerous Man", UFC Hall of Famer, former WWE intercontinental champion and current Impact superstar - the one, the only, Mr. Ken Shamrock.

We mark out to many of Ken's legendary stories as we start the journey in Japan, leading to UFC 1 and then onto WWE as he became a household name across the world.

Ken is a bare-knuckle boxing promoter, prowrestler and retired Mixed Martial Artist.  He is currently a main event player at Impact Wrestling and indeed had an Impact World Title shot 24 hours after recording. He has headlined over 15 main event and co-main events in UFC.

Most of all, Ken is a great guy who had one hell of an upbringing. He's extremely candid, open and honest.

Enjoy.

This week we are circling back to late 1999 when one of the greatest performers of all time would make his debut. Kurt Angle's introduction to Pro-wrestling was like no other!

Not only did Kurt take to wrestling like a fish to water, wrestling also took to him and our Olympic Hero embarked on the greatest 12 months in wrestling history - potentially never to be surpassed.

We'll cross paths with The Rock, Chris Jericho, Rikishi, Chris Benoit, Tazz, The Undertaker, HHH, Stephanie McMahon, Shawn Stasiak, Tiger Ali Singh and many more.

This is the Greatest Rookie Year in Pro-wrestling history!

This week we go into overtime as we return to our hero Lex Luger (for the very last time) as he leaves WCW and heads towards WWE, taking a pitstop through Vince McMahon's World Bodybuilding Federation along the way.

It's hard to imagine any wrestler ever again having a push like Lex Luger received in the Summer of 1993 and even harder to imagine weirder booking than what followed. Lex Luger's career hits so many beats that it's hard to keep up.

In this action packed episode, we're covering The Narcissist, Lex Express Tour, Summerslam 1993, Yokozuna, Mr. Perfect, Royal Rumble 1994, Tatanka, Bret Hart, Ludvig Borga, Mall of America, WCW, Hulk Hogan and Miss Elizabeth.

This is a ridiculously action packed episode that also sees the end of a long term SFTF's storyline. You can't beat long term booking!
