Just wanted to say you guys have great chemistry and this is a great concept. Highly recommend the show. Keep these coming!

By the way, love that. Miz and Maryse have been such a great act. Agree they've been a very fun act. But there's no reason to expect anything special out of that match at Mania. Would've liked something with a bit more substance and potential for Cena to hit a home run. I think it's only booked so they can have a manufactured Wrestlemania Moment with *spoiler* Cena proposing to Nikki after the match

That's awesome! Never seen a young Rodz pic before. John L. Sullivan would become Johnny Valiant a few years later

Also, watch the Snuka/Rogers vs Albano/Stevens match from Philly 11/25/82 for more proof that Buddy was awesome in old age. It's on youtube

Then it probably was on the NWA doc. I just assumed the Apter photographed match between them was from Greensboro

I watched that match last night and I believe it is the one the mags made famous from Greensboro. It is just like all the garbage tape stuff with several cuts. I want to say the Crockett doc had footage from Virginia shows, but I don't really know because I've never seen it

I've never known footage of Flair vs Rogers to be out there before Also, I think Bruno vs Steele may be from Philly and was on an old CHV tape. There was no MSG show on that date and Bruno worked different guys there in 1970 I watched a Funk vs Watts Tri States match on youtube not that long ago

Thanks dude. My pleasure to give the world the man, the legend, the one and only Superstar Marty Sleeze!

I never notice it either

Awesome!

Last show records tonight and will drop in a couple weeks. In the meantime, Parv is putting together one last Best of show. If anyone has any specific moments or favorite bits please let us know so they can be included in the retrospective

That's cool Chad. Thanks

Final ep will be recorded Saturday but won't drop for a couple weeks or so. I still need to record the last Stampede show and release it first, so technically there will be two more Titans episodes. Travis and I originally recorded our last Stampede show over a month ago but the audio vanished into the ether. It's taken me this long to get over the loss lol

Thanks guys Last ep will be a "b sides and rarities" type show. We've put together a playlist of matches from 79-82 that we never reviewed previously. All the classic characters will be represented: Dom, the Baron, Albano, Rodz, Garea, etc. I'm hoping it will be a fitting send off. The decision was made to leave 83 untouched in case we ever make a comeback when we're old and have nothing better to do

We are recording a final episode on Saturday. I'll explain more later but would like thank everyone that listened to our show over the years. It was always a blast and I have a lot of awesome memories of doing shows with the boys. Once again, thank you

I think bringing the UK guys (the top 6 or so) into NXT would be the best way to integrate them into WWE. There is already the Regal connection. Would give NXT some fresh matchups and most importantly prevent a repeat of the cruiserweight situation (which could still turn around but has fizzled so far)

Shitfest dream match

Nope

A lot of mystery surrounding the big match and that's a good thing. Just hope the journey there isn't as painful as Mania, Summerslam and Survivor Series

Yeah I really liked this show too. Not sure what 90% of this thread was watching

Pedro over Patera was on an untelevised MSG show, which there were 3 or 4 a year at the time Tito over Muraco is on the old history of the IC title CHV. Missing the finish as you mentioned

That's what the other option is for. Personally I love Stomper

I keep forgetting he was born in Utah. He's lived in the Greater Vancouver Area since the early 60s. He was one of the first pro wrestlers I ever met in real life as a very little kid, so in my imagination he's always been a local guy (and a real-life Big Friendly Giant). When I was in the first or second grade he had a pair of matches against Andre that were a very big deal to us little kids who loved wrestling. Of course, none of us were actually able to see anything more than the hype on All Star Wrestling on BCTV (I think the actual "Match of the Century" rematch between them took place in Montreal) but we all talked like we'd seen it and acted it out in the playground. Out of curiosity, Ricky Jackson, do you know Verne Siebert? No, I don't know him. I grew up in Calgary so I'm not familiar with a lot of the old BC wrestling scene. One of my best friends (Travis from my Titans Stampede pods) is tight with the ECCW crew though

Those who know me are not surprised

Yes, please as gordi asked, if we need to go down the Bret vs Flair route again, there is a legendary thread in the microscope devoted to that. I never thought of Don Leo as Canadian tbh, but he's definitely one of the "adopted" ones. And he apparently lives in Langley BC which is literally like a 30 minute drive from me
