  1. Here's a playlist with some of the matches and angles discussed on the show. If nothing else, check out the Bad News turn on Gouldie video for an amazing promo from Stomper https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV6RCTo_Cd0Chr2HXCyzvFWuGvSIwti8C
  2. http://placetobenation.com/titans-of-wrestling-64-the-stampede-territory-part-2-stomper-tribute/ Part 2 of of the Stampede Territory mini series sees Kelly and Travis look at the career of Archie "the Stomper" Gouldie, perhaps the area's most legendary heel. They dig up footage from his time in Stampede, and also from his run as the Mongolian Stomper in the USA. Special focus is given to the legendary angle from December 1983 in Stampede involving the Stomper, his "son", and Bad News Allen, including all the crazy fallout. Sit back and enjoy another ring-a-ding-dong-dandy, fans!
  3. Not watching because I don't have cable and am not motivated to get a stream, but they apparently announced the creation of the "Universal" title to be decided at Summerslam
  4. Most fun I've had watching non NXT WWE all year
  5. Backlund Forever
  6. Awesome match
  7. http://placetobenation.com/at-the-garden-presents-bruno-sammartino-beginnings-and-endings-1966-1971/ In this second of four parts, the years 1966-1971 are examined, highlighting... -Tough times for New York wrestling, with TV problems and dwindling attendance -A new Garden, debuting in 1968 -New challenges: Baron Scicluna, George Steele, Toru Tanaka, The Sheik, Ivan Koloff, and others -One era comes to an end, another dawns Enjoy!
  8. "The match wasnt good because it was mostly Banks and Brooke and they werent on the same page. Well, they were on the same page Del Rio and Young were on earlier in the show. But not the same Paige Del Rio may have been on earlier." Oh Dave, you've still got it, you've still got it, you've still got it
  9. His match against Robinson from 1974 Japan is great and he more than holds up his end in it
  10. Join Kelly and Johnny as they prove once again why wrestling is the greatest thing ever: No Freakin' Rain Delays! Watch wrestlers attempt to wrestle in the rain (lots of arm bars and small packages folks), Cyndi Lauper still kicking around the WWF, the REAL Spider Lady, Hogan and Studd's loving embrace, and much much more!
  11. At the Garden returns Friday, July 22 with a look at Bruno Sammartino and the years 1966-1971. In two different Gardens, a turbulent time for McMahon Sr sees Bruno take on Baron Scicluna, Toru Tanaka, George Steele, The Sheik, Ivan Koloff, and a host of others. Don't miss it fans!
  12. Next part will feature a tribute to the career of Archie "The Stomper" Gouldie. Look out for it in about a week
  13. I think they were going to run Piper vs Lawler in Georgia in late 1982 but Piper was canned for numerous offenses, the last being a bender with Tommy Rich where they no showed multiple dates
  14. First match set the table for the tourney quite well. Love the enthusiasm from Ranallo and Bryan

    Great match. Awesone atmosphere and finishing stretch. Nak is so beloved, it's so much fun to watch his American breakthrough unfold week by week

    Not live, but Nak vs Balor is a big match and I'm pretty excited. Show just started. Curious to see how much time they get
  17. http://placetobenation.com/titans-of-wrestling-63-the-stampede-territory-part-1/ Just in time for Stampede season, Kelly teams up with his longtime friend Travis for the first part of an ongoing mini-series devoted to an exploration of the famous Hart family territory based out of Calgary! Centered around a discussion of the promotion's oldest known footage (from April 1961) and the legendary main event of the WWF's 1997 Canadian Stampede PPV (the symbolic end of the territory), Kelly and Travis touch on... -Their personal experiences with the territory as kids in the late-80s -Ed Whalen's place as an announcer and Calgary icon -How Stampede compared to other areas -Stu Hart in 1961: Look out Don Draper! So sit back and enjoy a nostalgia-soaked ride through Western Canadian wrestling history! Travis and his pal Max have a great show reviewing Lucha Underground, appropriately called Lucha Afterground https://soundcloud.com/lucha-afterground Also, watch the 1961 ep, it's freakin great
  18. Thanks Carnac
  19. Dropping on Wednesday, Titans of Wrestling #63 is the first of a periodic multi-part look at the history of Western Canada's Stampede Wrestling promotion. Kelly brings aboard his longtime friend Travis (Lucha Afterground podcast https://soundcloud.com/lucha-afterground) to host, and they reminisce about the wrestling they grew up on living in Calgary in the late-80s. This episode features the bookends of the territory, with a look at both the oldest footage available-from April 1961-and the symbolic end of the story, the Canadian Stampede main event from 1997. So in the meantime and in between time, get ready for Titans #63!
  20. #loosethemoustacheloseitall All time great WTBBP meme
  21. Wooooo pro wrestling woooooo
  22. I'm watching this at a friend's place. First UFC I've seen in 4 years. Lesnar winning and then an RKO out of nowhere is how I'd book it
  23. Haha...Chinlock Town. Brilliant
