The Shining Wizards

Another Monday means another episode of your favorite wrestling podcast

The boys are back with another great episode. They catch up with each other, talking about dinners, house guests, and more. PLUS we get a video from the committee about who the next challenger will be for the Can You Beat That Championship. 

Then they dive into the NXT & WWE PPV's from the weekend. The big topic is Cody Rhodes working hurt, and we speculate how long he will be out, and if a Royal Rumble return is now on the table. They also talk about Cody being the guy to beat Roman. They run down the PPV picks and the standings before moving into the MJF/AEW Situation. The Promo, and what the next step is. Will this turn into Tony Khan being a character on TV? Will AEW try and run back Vince/Austin with MJF/Khan? How is the story effected by the CM Punk injury? We unpack this crazy battle royal winner vs Jon Moxley vs Winner of the Dominion match situation, and Tony is annoyed by the rankings. We run down the NJPW Dominion Card and then take a quick break 

After the break we are back with our Wizards Rewind, as we go back to November 7th 1987, WWF Superstars of Wrestling show. We talk about all the matches, moments, promos as we are on the road to Survivor Series 1987. We ponder what version of Jake the Snake we preferred when it came to the DDT, Out of Nowhere or Short Arm Clothesline set up. Randy Savage Promo's, the unlikely tag team of Billy Jack Haynes & Ken Patera, Sika, Strike Force and much more. It's old school wrestling talk, and it's what we do best.

The boys are back and talking all things wrestling.....well sort of. 

We are joined by "The Outlaw" of Wildkat Sports Matt Lancie. We talk a ton of topics, from what Wildkat means to him, to if it's appropriate to wish someone a Happy Birthday on Twitter, being a trainer at the school, Johnny Walker Black, and the HUGE X Rated Show taking place on June 25th. Matt also announces who his opponent will be, and its a big deal. 

After Matt's excellent interview we find out that Kevin takes a 30 minute shows, and that's a whole conversation before we take a quick break.

We come back with some coverage of our AEW Double or Nothing Picks, the MJF situation, and do a quick gloss over the Double or Nothing PPV. For your in depth look at AEW, check out the Mark Order Podcast every Wednesday Night.

Then it's Down The Aisle. The untimely passing of Tarzan Goto sends us back to the ECW Arena, Heatwave 96. We eventually figure out who the Samoan Gangstas Party is, talk about the ECW/FMW joint show's that Goto was a part of, and talk some Doc and Gordy, there ECW runs & more.

Tony is back after a quick break, and the boys talk about the strange Sasha Banks/Naomi situation. We weigh in on the topic based on what we have read in the media, and try and get a grasp on it. It's a really wild situation. 

Then it's time for the Can You Beat That Championship as Kevin Rouge from the Year of Duke & Rogue makes his first title defense against Downtown Petey Brown. The committee has some really hard questions for the competitors. Did Kevin retain? Post CYBT things get wild, as RR shows up and things get strange.

Kevin, Matt and Tony are back with another exciting episode of The Shining Wizards Wrestling Podcast

The soft open, the boys try and button up this nonsense about Tony & the Can You Beat That Championship committee. We get a little clarity, but we still don't have a clue what is going on. 

We quickly catch up before we are joined by our guests, The Death Samurai AKIRA. He's had a shit travel day but is kind enough to join us. We talk about being a deathmatch wrestler, Jon Moxley wearing his hoodie on Dynamite, Masha, OPW, H20, wrestling his significant other and much more. Its a great interview and insight to AKIRA. A man you should have your eyes on. 

After a quick break we briefly touch on the Ibushi situation, before talking about Cody Rhodes being the guy to take the title off of Roman Reigns. This turns into a conversation about guys who didn't work out in one promotion but were successful in another, and leads to us taking a premature trip Down the Aisle to talk Lex Luger and SummerSlam 1993, Tatanka, Allied Powers and more. 

We get back on track with some this and that's about NJPW, Impact Wrestling, MLW, and NWA. Does seeing Jay White lose in Impact effect his stock in New Japan Pro Wrestling?  We talk about the Ric Flair news, and that's an interesting conversation. 

Then against Tony's wishes we do a proper down the aisle, back to a random USWA card from 1995. We talk about Gorgeous George 3, Mark Curtis, Robert Gibson & Ricky Morton in solo runs, David Jericho, & more. Its the perfect Down the Aisle to end the show

It's Monday Night & the crew is back with another jam packed show 

We kick it off by catching up with each other, Tony had COVID, Kevin has allergies, & Matt is always working. 

We start things off with some MLW talk, as Tony really enjoyed the latest episode of MLW Fusion, from there we transition into Picks, and Wrestlemania Backlash. We talk about the show, why we all picked RK Bro/Claymore, and Kevin gives us his match of the night. 

We talk a little bit of AEW, Tony thinks Bryan Danielson is being wasted in this stable with Mox/Regal/Yuta so we talk a bit about that.Tony still doesn't know the difference between Julie Hart and Jamie Hayter & we talk a bit about the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. 

Tony claims to be the head of the Championship Committee of the Can You Beat That Championship. Matt & Kevin strongly disagree. 

We are then joined by Brain R Solomon author of Blood and Fire, The Unbelievable Real Life Story Wrestling's Original Sheik. It's an unbelievable chat about the book, and the process of putting it together. From the Batman stories, to Bobo Brazil and FMW, its a really great talk, and a great preview of what to expect when you buy the book. 

We hit on some NWA and NJPW talk, before Matt hits Kevin and Tony with the question, What Wrestling Truths would you like to have answered. 

Then we hit the Wizards Rewind, back to May 23, 1992, WWF Superstars. It's a wild time in the WWF and none of us can really remember what happened between Wrestlemania 8 & SummerSlam 92. We have a lot of fun talking about the show, and find some interesting things out. It's a good listen. 

We hit a few going home's before pulling the train into the station. 

We hope you enjoy, and remember to Rate, Review and Subscribe

Wizards are back with another huge episode

Tony is late again, and we ponder, does he hate guests?

Caprice Coleman is supposed to join us at 7, but is no where to be found, so we do some wrestling talk and talk about wrestling. Matt doesn't understand the hatred for Sammy, talk a little Owen Hart Foundation, Punk vs Page, Wrestlemania Backlash, NXT, NXT UK and some more. Tony joins us as we are guessing the name of the UK WWE PPV. We just scratch the surface on Tony's hate for guests, when Caprice Coleman joins us.

We talk about his awesome beard, how he got into the wrestling game, his father (911), PWI, being one of the best big men & what 2022 has in store for him. 

After Big Vin we talk about AEW, Battle of the Belts, & the Sammy/Tay hate. We put a bow on that as we get to chat with Lash LeRoux. Lash catches us up on what he's been up to since he left wrestling, his social media absence & more. We talk about how he made it in WCW, being in MIA and much more.
