Old vince mcmahon has taken a lot of heat over the years for some of his more cringy ideas and storylines. But the yuck stuff doesn’t begin and end with the Attitude Era. TNA and WCW have had their share of unnoteworthy ideas. Even some of the territories made us go “Wow!” And not in a good way. So this episode we go over some of these ideas not from...

With the national expansion, pro Wrasslin’ merchandise became more and more of a thing. Gone are the days of “gimmicks” atba small merch booth. And replaced by a wealth of T-shirts, ice cream bars and action figures.The WWF/E has a stranglehold on the figure market. But there are a number of figures we’d like not produced in mcmahonland. How about an Andy Kaufman in a neckbrace (or even a Letterman...

We’ve been regular readers of the mighty PWI (Pro Wrestling Illustrated) since we were teens in the mid 80s. One of our fave sections were/are the monthly rantings. The Top Ten wrestlers from the major federations of the time. Part of that would be comparing each numerical positions against one another. Like playing Arm Chair Booker.This time we armed ourselves with the latest PWI and did just that. The Top...

WrestleMania season has come and gone. Regardless of how ‘Mania stacked up, it makes got great conversation. So of course this episode is going to be Mania centric.

Then in our Turnbuckle Talk, we share what we consider to be the Best, and Worst, of the “Colossal Tussle” throughout the...

In the world of pro wrasslin’, “The Rock” once again dominates the headlines and fan interest. But is The Dwayne your favourite “Rock”? There are a ton of variations and meanings of the word. So we got curious to see if we made a list of our fave rocks, where would Wrestling Rock fall in? Does he rank higher than “Rock n Roll”? Or The RnR Express, for that matter....

Its that time again! Growing up, the “Apter Mags” were a huge part of our wrestling fandom. We ran to the newsstand every month for our literary wrasslin’ fix. And the Pro Wrestling Illustrated “Achievement Awards” were always our fave issues. Yes, the Apters were kayfabe mags and the validity of the awards were suspect. But its always a good read comparing our choices with our fellow “fan votes”. So...

Holy Shite’! Its definitely been a last couple weeks in the world of pro wrasslin’, both enjoyed and endured. The sexual assault allegations against former (Yes! Yes!) WWE head honcho vince mcmahon came to light. So we pull no punches regarding this whole sordid story. Warning: This is far and away one of our most spirited discussions. We also go deep in the Royal Rumble, The Dwayne Johnson’s new position...

Second generation (sometimes third) athletes are a proud tradition in the wrasslin’ world. Some were blessed with their parent’s abilities and character. And they’ve made legendary careers out of their opportunities. And some went the opposite way. Despire having these advantages, some just didnt click with pro wrestling. So this week we go a list of the Should’ve Beens. What with surnames like Sammartino, Watts and Von Erich a.o. As...

Happy New Year! After the NYE festivities wore off, we knew it was time to get back in action. So we donned our new 2024 tights and boots and headed to the ring. And the year just started and we’ve already got a ton to talk about. We give our review of “The Iron Claw”, our “World’s End” review/the MJF sitch, Rock/Roman(?) and the Jericho allegations. We put a bow...

Professional wrestling is a (pre determined) athletic competition. But part of the show is the certain amount of showmanship that goes into “talking them into the building”. So the skillset(s) of pro wrestlers would certainly lend themselves to other areas of entrrtainment. Namely the vast amounts of times wrestlers have graced the silver screen. A lot of ventures were less than memorable. But there were a few roles worth writing...
