Thanks JK! It took us a few to really get the era figured out but by WM1 I think things start to click. Then Kelly came and we were complete!

That makes total sense... I kind of assumed that as I was saying it but like you mentioned, the timing was close enough that just maybe... Thanks for listening guys!

Jeff Machado and JT Rozzero are best friends but Jeff has never been a wrestling fan… until now. With decades of wrestling history to catch up on, JT is leading Jeff’s completely clean slate on an educational journey through the wonderful story of professional wrestling. In episode one, the boys cover the very basics of pro wrestling, how the WWF came to be, how awesome Jesse Ventura was, the greatness of Andre the Giant, the birth and death of the Mega Powers, comparisons between Miss Elizabeth and Michelle Obama, the point of tag team wrestling and much, much more. So, join us on Jeff’s journey to learn all about pro wrestling, get sidetracked with us on many tangents and have a bunch of laughs along the way! http://placetobenation.com/jeff-learns-wrestling-1-basics-of-the-business-jesse-ventura-the-mega-powers-more/

What does "casual fan" even mean in 2017 wrestling?
Bigelow34 replied to goc's topic in Pro Wrestling
This is spot on. When I was at Easter dinner a few weeks ago and was talking about the Mania trip I just got back from my uncle asked "who's the champ now"? And he probably hasn't watched wrestling in 25 years. On a slightly related note... both my mother and uncle knew about Cena and Nikki's engagement and neither ever know or ask anything about wrestling. My uncle was like "oh you were there for that??" and my mom had texted me the next day asking what the reaction was for the engagement segment. It was odd. Things like TMZ, msn.com, E! and gossip magazines are big. For sure... guessing they saw it on Today Show perhaps. I know my sister watches Total Divas regularly and she has paid zero attention to wrestling since probably 1994. -

Thanks Boricua! I have definitely gained an appreciation for Adrian Adonis... he has become one of my faves to watch. Begrudgingly I have even come to enjoy Lou Albano a bit... Dream Team as well...even Terry Gibbs as a solid heel hand. I haven't really gone down on anyone per se... just reinforced my thoughts on some guys, especially Cousin Junior.

Sure, they can feed Nak to him I think he could face Cena at SummerSlam for sure so that could eat up some time. Feud with Bray? Miz?
