Really good show. The reunion of one of my favorite tag teams of all time at the end almost brought a tear to my eye

http://placetobenation.com/mount-olympus-fall-2017-wwe-unreleased-part-1/ Kelly is joined by the legendary Richard Land, who is making his podcast debut, for an in-depth look at WWE's Unreleased DVD. Everything on this three disc set has never been seen by fans before, and Kelly and Landy have a great time digging into it. The first part covers 1986-1991, featuring favorites like Hogan, Savage, Andre, Roberts, Flair, but also a young Owen Hart, and a not-ready-for-the-big-time DINGO WARRIOR! So sit back and enjoy another fun edition of Mount Olympus!

About friggen time

If he puts on a mask and teams with Owens again, even if he doesn't go by El Generico, I'll mark like a 10 year old

Episode #7 http://placetobenation.com/world-cast-a-wccw-review-episode-7/ March 20, 1982 (WCCW 13) DEAR LORD, AN ACTUAL VERY GOOD (PERHAPS EVEN GREAT) MATCH!!!!! From out of nowhere, Jose Lothario and Busy McGraw shake the Sportatorium to its core and Pete, Kelly and Johnny lose their shit. Also, Al Madril provides the best color commentary yet, and we get footage of Kerry vs Kabuki in front of a heated San Antonio crowd (don't blink cuz you might miss it). All this and more on the latest episode of World Cast!

Much like Bruno, there was nothing fake about Lance Russell in the fake world of wrestling, and that's what made him great. RIP

Yeah, but he was working a main event program with Hogan this time

Oney Lorcan vs Lars Sullivan from this week's show was predictably awesome

My man Pete (shoe) is a certified accurate star rater

Thanks man. We were joking the other night it would take like 5 years to get through 1987

I agree. There are probably more in depth interviews with the Destroyer out there (?), but having never heard the man interviewed before I was more forgiving of Jericho's shortcomings as a researcher

Jericho's interview with the Destroyer is wonderful. Anyone interested in the Golden era of wrestling give it a listen

What's up with the attendance decline at TV? Is house show attendance down too?

Episode #6 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-6 (PTBN link to follow) March 13, 1982 (WCCW 12) You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have World Class in early-1982. The Good: NWA champion Ric Flair is in town! The Bad: Kevin Von Erich doing color commentary (really, really bad). Through it all Pete, Kelly and Johnny have a blast, so sit back and enjoy another fun episode of World Cast!

Also, was I the only one whose immediate thought after the finish was that it was going to turn out Taker had caused Yoko to lose his balance and fall through some kind of beyond the grave supernatural bs?

I will say that I absolutely hated the finish to the Mania X main at the time, feeling it made it seem that Bret only beat Yoko by fluke. I understand now that they wanted to keep Yoko strong for Taker later in the year, but they still could've booked it so Bret had a more convincing win to start his reign

And the poster already corrected himself that he meant IX not X

Hang in there, Boricua!

Aw, too bad

This match isn't going to change anybody's mind about Roman being the man. He can beat Brock at Mania, and they still won't buy it. It isn't about whether the fans buy it or not. Cena's done as top guy and Roman is his successor

Ah, you heartless bastards shitting on Cena passing the torch

Great match, even if the AA is about as effective a finisher as a bodyslam

Cesaro looks like Bobby Clarke circa 1975

Very good points. It definitely felt very un-WWF like watching it live. At the time I really embraced moments like these, being a sullen teenager totally sick of the cartoon leftovers from the 80s and hating stuff like supernatural Undertaker and Lex Express which followed Bret vs Lawler

Kansas City Bulldogs also wrestled in Calgary in late 88/early 89
