Wrestlemaniacs

Bob, Jake & Alex go back to 1992 to watch one of the greatest Royal Rumble matches of all time. This rumble match featured many wrestling legends and amazing storytelling by the announcers. Your hosts answer some important questions such as; How would they win the rumble? Who would be more popular now than then? And who had the worst hair? Listen and get drunk on some nostalgiahol.

Happy new year to all the wrestling maniacs around the world. 2020 was a rough one, & we hope you are all happy, healthy, & safely enjoying some pro wrestling. We have a lot of big plans for the Podcast in 2021, but before that we want to try and pay tribute to an amazing pro wrestler, & person who passed away late last year, Mr. Johnathan Huber aka Brodie Lee, aka Luke Harper.

In 2019, Mr. Huber traveled a long way to support our art community by performing at the Detroit Improv Festival. He was funny, humble and kind to so many people at this event.

So for this episode, Bob, Jake and Alex discuss Luke Harper, the Wyatt Family, and one of the top 5 best 3-on-3 matches in the past decade from Elimination Chamber 2014.

We also play/invent Bad Box of Gimmicks that we hope to play live someday soon!

Rest in Peace Mr. Huber, thank you for the memories and we wish we could have seen more.
