  • WWE Raw: December 9, 1996

    Wait, the Undertaker is taking on who at the Pay Per View? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys wince at the go-home Monday Night Raw, leading into the In Your House: It's Time Pay Per View. The Handicap Match between the "Real Double J" Jesse James, Justin Bradshaw, and Uncle Zebekiah doesn't get any pops, but Goldust and Bart Gunn were serviceable. Who's looking forward to that upcoming tag team titles match?

  • WWE Raw: December 2, 1996

    SHAKE THE BOOTY! In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys bear witness to a particularly poor episode of Monday Night Raw. Flash Funk gets pyro, Shawn Michaels has an apology to present to everyone, and The Goon is here to ruin everyone's good time. That trend continues with Fake Diesel, Jake "the Snake" Roberts, and the Mildman Marc Mero. Some confusing events happened last Wednesday in London, but it's very clear that Tiny Tim has passed away and Jerry Lawler loves it. "I like my ukulele!"

    Lou Albano, out of nowhere! In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys get ongoing updates from Doc Hendrix that don't really update anything at all. Rocky Maivia gets a chance to work a solo match, Bret "the Hitman" Hart and Owen Hart give us a great show opener, and Sunny continues to evolve into a sexual predator. Ryan gets to present a Jobber of the Week, and Vince McMahon gets to lead Shawn Michaels through another interview. This is all Jose Lothario's fault!

    How many times can the Executioner ruin a finish? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys have to ask the hard questions: Can Jose Lothario, in FULL CARDIAC ARREST, refuse medical attention? What do PG-13 really bring to the table in the Nation of Domination? What's it going to take for Ryan to give Bob Holly the Jobber of the Week title? The answers to these questions and the results of the 1996 Presidential election are on an all-new episode this week!

    He's no clown, he's no garbage man- he's a wrestler!

The Undertaker debuts his new Batman look, the championship changes hands, a young Rocky Maivia pulls an Elimination Match out of the dumpster, and the flashy, funky Flash Funk makes a great debut in a dud match. WE ARE THE NATION OF DOMINATION!

  • WWE Raw: November 11, 1996

    Sunglasses and sparklers- what a load of crap! In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys examine the go-home episode of Monday Night Raw, leading into Survivor Series 1996. Mankind keeps us moving forward, despite the Executioner tied around his ankle, and the championship scene is mostly falling flat; however, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Bret Hart are putting asses every 18 inches with the lead-in to their match. Earl Hebner is a wiener!

    Where's the SUUU-EEEE McMahon? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys view the fallout from the Buried Alive Pay Per View. Henry Godwin continues to get overlooked, Earl Hebner continues to build his stats, and it took three years for Vince McMahon Sr. to achieve Hall of Fame status. Bret Hart returns to provide an amazing interview, and kicks off an amazing feud with Stone Cold Steve Austin. It's been a PERFECT hoax!

  • WWE In Your House 11: Buried Alive

    It's a damn good thing those microphones got fixed! In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys sit down to talk about In Your House 11: Buried Alive. Stone Cold Steve Austin debuted the Breaking Glass entrance music, the tag team championship ends in a ridiculous finish, and Mero gets his shit in against Goldust. This Pay Per View made Jim Ross look like a piece of shit, and the Battle of the Powerbombs between Sid and Vader is a great lead in to Buried Alive and the debut of the Executioner!
