Hey guys, So we've had some technical difficulties, despite our best efforts, and support from Parv. We tried recording part 2 twice. The first time (yesterday, making it through 65), the program crashed midway. The second (today, making it through 70), it picked up all of Stacey's comments, but none of mine, which I'm sure is a hilarious listen, but not one we're sharing. So the good news is that our chemistry is probably pretty good three and a half hours later! The bad news is basically everything else. The other good news is that we're not giving up quite yet. I think the game plan is to make up time early next week by going with the Parv/Chad style of listing one set of ten or so in a row to get us back down to 70, and then to move on from there, making sure that both of us try to record the thing at once. I don't think either of us want to talk about certain wrestlers again at length. So, thanks for caring. Sorry about the delay. We'll try to be back with you early next week. We're also going to take the heat off off of Steven. The ??? Person in question was hidden for a day at my request as it was where today's podcast was going to end. So thanks to him for doing that, and he can feel free to unhide it now. That's where we'll start the more in depth look after running through our 83-71 next week.

The mystery is my fault, actually. Ruminate accordingly. (Or don't.)

Almost through the Mania reaction show. This one's next. I await Marty aggravating me in the best way.

It was funny. I went on and on about the Hayes match and then had to be reminded about the freaking amazing Davies match. I'm really glad you liked it though.

HTM was a possible 100 vote for a while.

I haven't asked Steven where Bock landed or where Rose did or anyone I care a ton about, because I want to be surprised. No one I've voted for any no top ten rankings, nothing like that, but I constantly bugged him about Angle.

Very curious about what Pete thinks of the Littlebrook match. It was sort of like the lucha title match of midget matches. People should check it out.

Yeah, you guys are great. Thanks. We've still got a ways to go but hopefully we'll make it through and it'll be entertaining.

I can't speak for everyone else but I know something I want to explore much more over the next 1-2 years is PR wrestling.

Cerebro was a near miss for a personal pick but I thought his Santo match just wasn't what i wanted it to be. Sierra was also a near miss. I really wanted to go with him but I just couldn't find room. Maybe I should have kept Wahoo off. DEAN's list is awesome sounding.

Holy crap. Brisco/Lothario draw.

Very cool that we're all the way back into 75 too.

Can't wait to see that!

My case for including Garza was almost all from after 2006 (or shortly before it), so yeah.

They already have an air guitar player.

Alliteration. They should have been the American Alpacas.

Quick write in tag ballot for me so I can put DeBeers and Boscik as the #1 tag team?

Frankly, Steven is the last person I'd expect to support Apartheid.

I actually think that Vince sees Charlotte, first and foremost, as a hostage to ensure Ric's good behavior.

I'm going to chalk that up on Steven being hilarious

Masters was the one that hurt the most not to include. (Tenta was the other)

It's April. Styles debuted at the end of January. If they had pushed him strong from the start, there'd be no backlash, not even "He's going to be fed to Reigns!" backlash. Those people would just think that he was on the right side of the HHH vs Dunn war or something, or that they'd successfully hijacked, or that the injuries meant WWE had gotten desperate, or something. And he'd be more over with the casual fanbase because he'd be a dominant winner.

AJ is the definition of "us" to everyone but the people who he needed to be presented strong for the most.

Workrate clinging dinosaur! How did Sayama do in the last one?

I want a Cesaro vs Gotch exchange so much.
