mprice Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 1....The Randy Savage Wrestlemania story was awesome. I could see from a mile away the fact that they were planning the match, etc but it still put a smile on my face. 2....The Snuka interview was absolutely nuts. I was in a quiet place at the time and had to attempt to keep my composure because it was just....something....not really sure what. This is one of those podcasts that I absolutely look forward to every week now because there is so much interesting information that I would have never known about otherwise. Good job gentlemen.

mprice Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Oh, plus the Dennis of the Week just makes my day. Couldn't forget to add that. I have gotten a kick out of every one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCampbell Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Great show as always, gentlemen. Brian's story about writing to the WWF and not hearing back, and then lamenting that he should have just written to Linda got a big laugh out of me. The Scott Teal interview was really interesting.

Minds_Eys Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'll add on to the praise. I listen to a ton of podcasts and this one is currently at the top of my to listen queue -- including catching up on past episodes. Bix and Brian complement each other nicely. And now I will start listening to Jim Cornette's podcast again with Brian as co-host. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherwagner Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 David, other than the Sweet Georgia Brown article what other Moolah article you referenced on the show? There should be some sort of playlist but for articles that you reference. I was listening to this on a plane and couldn't take a note!

WrestlingPower Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 If either of you ends up reading Mark Fleming's book, I'd be curious if he goes into his VWA run while he was working with Thesz. Long story short, VWA booked him in late 80s/early 90s (I forget the year) and ended up putting their title on him. I'm assuming a lot of it was to get Thesz involved. Anyway when it came time for them to get the belt off him, he refused to job. They ended up in court over possession of the physical belt and rather than break kayfabe & admit it was all fake, Fleming ended up keeping possession of the belt. The way I heard it the judge said since he had won it, it was his. Fast forward 20 years or whatever, Fleming worked a few shows around 2008-9 time frame where he was claiming to defend that belt.

victory Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 David, other than the Sweet Georgia Brown article what other Moolah article you referenced on the show? There should be some sort of playlist but for articles that you reference. I was listening to this on a plane and couldn't take a note! I think Bix mentioned the WON obit on Moolah as the other. Fun show. I really enjoyed the Scott Teal interview. His books are so great. The Atlas book is my favorite of his so far. Really looking forward to part 2.
