It is Wrestlemania week and we are chalk full of wrestling previews of the biggest week in wrestling.

We catch up quickly and our wonderful listeners remind us of the Needle in the pecker spot from the XPW show this past weekend, so we talk about that for a bit. Kevin is furious & Tony is speechless, which doesn't happen often.

We got Over the Top and cover all the major shows from the past week of TV, WWE, AEW, Impact, NWA, ROH and MLW.

Matt isn't the biggest fan of Wrestlemania week, so we dive into that, hot dogs and more.

We preview the Wrestlemania 39 card, and it seems like the gang is pretty excited, even if Omos vs Brock is on the show.

The Wizards are back with another episode covering the world of professional wrestling.

After a short open, Matt poses the question, if Ricky Steamboat had a Tag Team Partner, would you rather it be Tito Santana or KoKo B Ware circa 1991. This leads us to the 1990 IC Title Tournament, we know Mr Perfect won beating Tito Santana, but who were the other 6 men in the tournament?

We hit Over the Top and cover all the results from the week, before taking about our favorite cold snacks to eat. Matt loves an egg roll cold and there is outrage, so we bring in our guest Darin Corbin to have him add his two cents to the conversation. We talk about a variety of food related topics, Matt shares a few embarrassing stories, we do talk some wrestling, and its a great introduction to Darin if you aren't familiar with him.

After a quick commercial break, we are back talking about the Road to Wrestlemania. The Bloodline vs Sami Zayn story continues to deliver, KJG thinks it's not over at Mania, HK questions if they should have put the title on Sami at Elimination Chamber and Tony is excited for Charlotte vs Rhea. What Tony isn't excited for is the possibility of Dominik crashing Rey's Hall of Fame ceremony. This leads us to talk about the current announcements for the 2023 Hall of Fame and who else we think we go in.

We hit on the Kenny Omega/Vikingo debate. Is a dream match a bad thing? The boys weigh in, talk a little about AEW Dynamite, talk turns to the NWA as Matt watched Powerrr and Tony watched USA. Matt asks if Nick Aldis leaving the NWA is on the same level as Hulk Hogan leaving the AWA. This is right in HK & Tony's wheel house.

On the latest episode the boys get back it with lots of wrestling talk and talk about wrestling. 

The boys go OVER THE TOP and hit on all the results from the past week. Matt is in charge of the facts, as Tony is running behind. Who's facts do you enjoy more? Matt or Tony? 

Matt is confused with the Booby Hitting clip from NXT & looks for clarity from the guys. From the bad, we go to the good, the Bloodline story continues to rule, but Matt is also confused by the Charlotte Flair clip of her from Smackdown where it looks like she is wrestling in slow motion. This leads Kevin to question, why are these big returns, not hitting the mark for most fans. 

We are then joined by the Animal Bob Anger. The Asgardian Space Animal talks a ton with us about wrestling, comic books, Sexxxy Beasts and more. Magenta joins the interview and it's over the top, you have to listen to believe it. It's also a great introduction to the Animal Bob Anger. 

After a quick break the boys are talking AEW, the leveling up of the title and the Will Hobbs title change. Is Rampage on the same live as WCW Thunder?

We hit on some ROH, and the Reach for the Sky Ladder Match before we hit a technical difficulty and Matt completely shuts down.

Tony ponders if Vince McMahon could take a small company in this era and make it as successful as he did with the WWE.

Its another great show from your favorite wrestling podcast.
