I thought that match was dumb and boring as shit, but the crowd only got hotter and hotter with each new weapon introduced, so what the fuck do I know

Live in the building, Shayna was over but nobody cared about Mia

Think you have to put Yim over tonight and create a new star. Then eventually she can work with Io

I'm going to be at the show, my first major WWE/WWF show since Canadian Stampede in 97. Hopefully it will be as good as that one ; ) Should be great as usual, but not a ton of buzz and there are tons of tickets left

According to my wife, if she didn't know the names because of me, nobody after Cena has any mainstream recognition

I thought the Hogan interview was good, but my fave is still the one he did with Jericho from a few years back, as far as most laid back and least bs is concerned

https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/pwo-retro-wrestling-with-the-past-cage-matches For the latest installment of PWO Retro, we go back to 2013 for an edition of Wrestling With the Past where Will and Charles discuss the mighty cage match! First, they talk about famous cage matches from the territory days including the Mid South Stipulations match, the Final Conflict, Lawler vs. Idol and more. They also discuss the NWA/WCW cage matches including the greatest War Games matches and the beauty of Magnum TA vs. Tully Blanchard, and wrap up the show discussing the WWF, the blue cage, escape rules, and the Hell In A Cell. Bloody fun for everyone!

Back in the day this is something jdw and jvk would've went to war over

All-time great. One of the more believable wrestlers ever. Total badass. RIP to Greatest Wrestler on God's Green Earth

Last few months haven't afforded me (Kelly) many recording opportunities. I'm currently on vacation for another two weeks. The plan is to resume World Cast when I get back

Looks like WON archive is 1991 to July 2002 (new issue each week) and then June 2008 to present

Them coming out to Age of Consent would be a good start towards turning the gimmick around as far my liking them is concerned...

Just read that. Fuck, I still can't believe they pulled the ultimate con on USA and Fox

Well, they've actually turned his lack of impact into a storyline now so we'll see where it goes, but I've also wondered why they haven't used him much

Really enjoyed this as well. Perfect matchup. Scummy heel vs sympathetic babyface. This is what I want to see more of in 2019. Hopefully there are more matches between them in the future

Awesome match. One of my favorites of the year. Everyone check this out now

Yes sir, I do think she will make a great heel https://www.wwe.com/amp/shows/wwenxt/gallery/io-shirai-new-look-photos?sf215947523=1&__twitter_impression=true

https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/pwo-retro-bruno-vs-larry Greatest Feud Ever What happens when recording podcasts becomes increasingly difficult? (honestly, only for the once great Chief Jay Historian, Kelly Nelson) It's time for reruns! Join us for the debut of a new concept: periodic dives into the PWO archives, which date back to that distant age, 2012! First up is a pod originally released in 2014 as Best of Titans of Wrestling Volume #2: Bruno vs Larry. Relive the earliest days of the famed Titans of Wrestling podcast! Bad audio! Crazy James! Some Brit named Parv! Holy crap, this was six years ago! Oh yeah, also enthusiastic gushing over the great feud between Bruno Sammartino and Larry Zbyszko from 1980 WWF!!! (and Kelly's intro is from 2014 btw)

Personally, I dont have the time to watch and record until around the 22nd or so (my life has been unusually busy the last few months), but perhaps Pete and Johnny may be up for it And thanks for all the positive comments. Hopefully things will be back on track by the fall and the three of us will review more non-World Class stuff as it becomes available on the Network

Dillinger's feud with Eric Young in 16-17 was really good, built well, and culminated in satisfying cage match blow off. He was more than just a chant that got over. This is his biggest push yet and he's going to put everything thing he has into the feud with Cody.(who is at a career peak, so he's going to put his all into the feud as well)
