    Days of Thunder Xmas Special: WWA The Inception with @TNAHistoryPod

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays From Days of Thunder! To celebrate the festive season, Dave and Lee decided to treat you to what we do best: suffering during horrendous wrestling shows! And to do that, we had to bring in some help this time, in the form of Garrett and Liam from You've Got To Be Kidding me, the best TNA Retrospective pod on the block. As it's a crossover between WCW and TNA pods, we thought that the best show to look at was the debut PPV from the company that wasn't quite WCW anymore, and wasn't quite TNA yet: it's WWA The Inception. In short, this is an all-time bad PPV, and I don't want to spoil the horror of what awaits, so dig in! We'll be back in early January with our next episode, and encourage people to watch the shows along with us and send us any thoughts or memories.

    Our weekly content streak rolls on at Days of Thunder. As luck would have it, right as we were recording our go home Thunders for Bash at the Beach 1998, WWE released a documentary on the involvement of Rodman and Malone at the show, so what better way to whet the appetite for next week's Bash at the Beach podcast than for Lee and Dave to sit down and listen to the world's biggest carnies all take personal credit for what happened, with a bonus helping of Lee's thoughts on Tiger King and a quick Q&A! We'll be back in one week for THE BIGGEST PARTY OF THE SUMMER, and encourage people to watch the shows along with us and send us any thoughts or memories.
