Two And A Half Marks

We get our first proper current era PPV with Hell In A Cell 2018, and boy is it... something? David puts the Falcon Arrow over, Angelo criticizes a good portion of the card for various reasons, and Jake takes on the Hell In A Cell in a grudge match. The WWE Women's division puts on 2 solid bouts, 4 of the best guys in the business square off for the Tag Titles, and OH MY GOD THAT'S BROCK LESNAR'S MUSIC!

Ask, and you shall receive. Angelo asked for 2002-2004 WWE, and the Randomizer presented Unforgiven 2003. Some lows, like Test v. Steiner and and 8 minute match featuring Jim Ross, but some high points like Shawn Michaels v. Randy Orton in the first "Legend vs. Legend Killer" match. Shane McMahon attempts to take his own life, and we have a GOLDBERG appearance.

The Marks go back to 1993, with another WCW PPV. This one is dedicated to legends, which features an hour of wrestling with guys over 49 years old. 2 Cold Scorpio steals the show, Rick Rude is the best Atomic Drop seller of all time, and we get to discuss an absolute David mark-fest when Davey Boy Smith challenges Big Van Vader for the World Heavyweight Title.

With Part 2 of their review of the G1 Supercard, David, Jake and Angelo deep dive the 4 final matches which were all very unique. The Marks are split on Zack Sabre Jr., while Naito-Ibushi blew everyone's mind. David would probably be able to book Angelo's dream card with his prediction about Marty Scurll, Jay White has a super punchable face, and how does Okada stack up against history?  We are all Matt Taven.

The Marks take it international (kind of)! David, Jake and Angelo decided to tackle the NJPW and ROH joint event; the G1 Supercard. Starting off with the Honor Rumble filled with big names like Minoru Suzuki and Colt Cabana, as well as legends like Jushin Thunder Liger, there's a ton of dream matches to follow up. Jeff Cobb vs Will Ospreay in a clash of styles, a hell of a Woman of Honor title bout, and how could Dalton Castle do that to the Boys?

In the self-proclaimed "Tye Dillinger" episode, the Marks take a swing at the 2nd half of the Wrestlemania 28 card. Starting off with a host of guys in a twelve man tag match to decide the General Manager of RAW and Smackdown, the show ends with 2 barn burners, CM Punk battling a Chris Jericho who is airing out all of Punk's dirty laundry, and the "Once in a Lifetime" match up between The Rock and John Cena. Stick around until the end for a special announcement for Episode 11. Two And A Half Marks is not affiliated with the WWE/WWF/WCW/TNA/AEW or any of the professional wrestlers named in this podcast.

With 8 episodes to their credit, the Randomizer gifted David, Jake, and Angelo Wrestlemania 28 for their first two parter. The boys dissect the first half of the card: Bryan-Sheamus, Show-Cody, a Divas Tag match with Kelly Kelly and Beth Phoenix, and a LEGENDARY Hell in a Cell match featuring HHH, Undertaker, and HBK. The guys breakdown the dawn of the YES! Movement, the Knockout Punch, how far women's wrestling has come in 8 years, and awe in greatness.

The guys don't have to go back that far to arrive at WWE NXT UK Takeover: Cardiff, the most recent PPV that the Marks have covered. In fact, David, Jake and Angelo watched this one live back in August 2019. With the "worst" match being 2.5 stars, the guys nerd out over the wrestling artistry featured on the card, including an insane triple threat tag team match, Cesaro and Ilja Dragunov stealing the show, and, of course, WALTER-Tyler Bate.

David, Jake and Angelo revisit the Attitude Era, this time with Survivor Series 1998. Headlined by the Deadly Game tournament to decide the new WWF World Champion, Vince McMahon is littered throughout the show as he does everything he can to stop Stone Cold Steve Austin from regaining his title. With an absolute swerve to end the show, what did the Marks think about the PPV? Tune in to find out?

The Marks take their time machine out on the highway for this episode, going all the way back to NWA/WCW's 1989 event, Chi-Town Rumble. David, Jake and Angelo lose their mind over the Ric Flair-Ricky Steamboat match, as well as touch on how Sting and Lex Luger prove that they were destined for big things.
