January 17, 2023 CLASSIC 269: WWF Royal Rumble 1991 Deep Dive
One of Nick's favorite Royal Rumbles, probably because it's the first one he's ever seen live, is now available on all listening platforms!
Nick and Vaughn dive deep into the 1991 Royal Rumble during a time where tensions were high in the Persian Gulf, so quite a few patriotic factors were in play here. Sgt. Slaughter beat a decked out in red, white, and blue Ultimate Warrior for the WWF Championship, Virgil turned on Ted DiBiase, and Hulk Hogan RUMBLED ALL OVER 29 other men.
We discuss it all in this classic episode, our 1991 WWF Royal Rumble deep dive!

December 30, 2022 CLASSIC 263: WCW Starrcade '97 Deep Dive
It was arguably the most anticipated wrestling pay-per-view of all-time, and it marked the beginning of the end for WCW.
The end product looked nothing like what was built up beforehand. The terrible finish, rash of injuries plaguing the roster causing massive card changes, bad timing, bad commentary, bad refereeing, just bad everything happened that night on December 28, 1997.
