Are Allie and Justice even feuding? I wrote up the Sami Callihan vs. Danny Havok match in my book, and that ends with Callihan slicing Havok's wrist to set up a move off of a scaffold, but that was the culmination of a violent feud. I mean Magnum TA tried to jab out Tully's eye with a broken chair leg, I mind it much less in that context, but something in the middle of a random tag with no backstory seems like a bad idea

Dropped a new pod with punk icon Lars Frederiksen singer in Rancid about Ric Flair vs. Ricky Morton from the Great American Bash! https://redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/episodes/00d9f10f-379e-44fc-960f-33957264f51a

We talked about his DVDVR history on my podcast https://t.co/PKCvuxEpH9

New pod dropped, I talk with Fanfyte and Segunda Caida writer JR Goldberg about Danny Havok vs. Sami Callihan in the Cage of Death from CZW https://redcircle.com/shows/way-of-the-blade

Ok we clearly need to review some of this for New Footage Friday on Segunda Caida, what is the best match of this bunch (closest to complete as well)

Tony Khan said on my podcast that he and Flair were really close friends, so if he is legally available, I wouldn't be shocked if he shows up.

What did you think about the Anarchy War Games? They are probably two of the least seen matches in my book, but I love them both.

Are you going backwards ? Or just picking stuff randomly? Love that match so much, those claw hammer shots, my goodness.

Looks like they had a house show run in 1984, plus this match which isn't on Cagematch from 1991

New Pod! I talk with my old friend Rob Naylor about Terry Gordy vs. Killer Khan! https://redcircle.com/shows/way-of-the-blade

I think one of the big problems with AEW is how shitty the WWE working environment seems to be. The churn between promotions is one of the healthiest things about having a promotional war. Cody showing up to challenge Roman Reigns would actually be a super hot angle, but there is no way he is leaving AEW, and he is getting a bit stale there. Same thing with guys like Jericho and the Bucks It's going to be hard to elevate new stars, if the old stars have no incentive to go anywhere.

Rey Jr. is an interesting case here. Obviously the end of WCW wasn't great, but he has been excellent almost every other period. Eddie Guerrero maybe too

New Pod! I talk with the amazing artist behind the book Chris Bryan about El Pollo vs. Commando Negro from IWRG 12/26/10 https://app.redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/ep/46167839-d5a6-41ca-b1da-856d63889260 It is a mind blowing match for folks that haven't watched it

Couldn't you just see Tully snorting lines of Cocaine and being viciously mean to Demi Moore?

New pod with Brian Solomon the author of the upcoming Sheik biography about the Sheik/Abby vs. Funks match from 7/15/79 Told a bunch of cool Sheik stories and talked in general about 70s wrestling https://redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/episodes/300e6977-6001-4b54-ad0b-53332352e476

Awesome, let me know what you think!

New Episode of the Pod I talk with Joshua Bishop about his bonkers I Quit match with Dom Garrini at Maina weekend in 2019 https://redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/episodes/934892a0-bb32-493a-9334-203a0bec7a10 Here is the match if folks haven't seen it

Episode 6 of the Pod is Out Talking about El Dandy vs. Pirata Morgan with Eduardo Martinez, great Pirata stories in here, recorded a while ago so there is some COVID lockdown bemoaning https://redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/episodes/5c11199d-8785-437a-b1f1-c7d3f4eafbc5

If you liked this, I really think all of the pods I have done are as good, and pretty varied. The Eric pod is two old friends just riffing, the Daniel Makabe is a really cool look at how a great wrestler views a great match and the pair of NWA Anarchy pods are an awesome window into a killer under seen period of US wrestling (although for those shows you should watch the matches first as they are both incredible!)

Episode 5 of the Pod is out I talk with Tony Khan about Flair vs. DiBiase, running a promotion during a pandemic, his booking philosophy and lots more https://app.redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/ep/173fa5e9-8321-4bdc-a5e7-5288fa292ba0

Also next week on the pod I have one of the most important people in professional wrestling! Talking about Ted DiBiase vs. Ric Flair https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38-8qdiXA2E

Any matches that aren't linked on that post, you can just DM me and I can get them to you

Episode 4 of the pod has dropped I talk to Rev. Dan Wilson and Jeff G. Bailey about the NWA Elite vs. Devils Rejects War Games from 2007. Great stories in this pod, really fun stuff https://redcircle.com/shows/be34c05b-8483-4797-af55-5ec4bd254611/episodes/be2ea195-9fe4-4c0e-b68c-68795c14aa83 Match is below, great match which really wasn't easily available until now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isr0k2ek6ek

Moxley is also setting himself up for an Indy deathmatch, and he certainly isn't doing for the money.
