Join lifelong wrestling fan DC Matthews as he picks up his pen and index cards and discusses all things fantasy booking. From massive tournaments that nobody asked for to drafts of wrestlers past and present, predicting upcoming PPVs and trying to reimagine wrestling history, there's all sorts of nonsense to enjoy when you have the Joy of Booking!
We're getting into the good stuff now, gang.
When the darkness inside of Charles Xavier and Magneto meet, all heck breaks loose!
There's lots of wrestling out there if you're willing to look for it.
We wrap up everything going down as we make our way to our next big mega-villain. Sabretooth, Dark Beast, Nate Grey, Oh My!
We move people around. That's what we do.
250 years and at least 3 of them were decent.
There's so much to talk about, I went ahead and broke this section up into 2 parts. Stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion next week!
The title makes sense once you hear our final name.
Witness a full DC mark-out moment...
Much like wrestling fans, comic book nerds always wondered who would win in epic DC vs. Marvel superhero battles. Much like wrestling fans post-ECW / WCW Invasion, I was disappointed.
What are the factors I look for in deciding who goes where? That and ranking a couple Foley teams and some female talent.
Lots of decisions to make, lots more to be made. This has been a long tournament.
DC tries to go through 78 issues (give or take) in 45 minutes (give or take).
Clap. Clap. Clap clap clap clap clap. Fact.
During the episode, I couldn't remember if this was Round 3 or Round 4. Forgive me. I've been flush with flu.
The goings on for our mutant groups following the return to the main universe.
No, I'm not starting over and making my rankings via PPVs, don't get nervous. You'll get it as we go.
Oh, you silly Outer Inner Circle. . .
This is the dawning of the Age of Apocalypse! The Age of Apocalypse! A-Poc-A-Lypseeeeeeee
Coming to you from 2 separate states, we begin round 4. Huzzah!
Without really noticing, we've come to the end of the 4 ring madness.
Burying the lede a bit, I guess. Did you know it's lede and not lead? Look it up...
It's so hot. . . Why is it this hot in mid-April near the ocean? Oh yeah, people do things in the rumble. Sure. So hot.
We set the table for the Age of Apocalypse!!!!
Crazy things happen when you roll some dice.
But not the Royals Rumble, don't get nervous.
Maybe some pruning is in order...
Crazy things, love can do.
Xavier sucks, Kurt's got a blue mom and the return...ish of Doug Ramsay!
We take a quick peek at our top lists to see if we're feeling good and then it's off to rank the 3rd letter of the alphabet!
We've created a monster, haven't we? Yes. . . Yes we have.
If you were expecting X-men, I hate to disappoint you.
We wrap up our second letter - Only 24 more to go!
More four way dances to decide. . . Something!
We also discuss the state of this podcast and how it'll work going forward. Why do I set myself such lofty goals?
This episode does not slow down, friends. Hang on tight.
Happy Birthday to me!!! Oh and happy Wrestlemania. I guess.
DC takes a break from podcasts with definitive end goals and just has some fun talking about this, that and the world of All Fantasy Everything.
Not all names will be winners, but all winners have names.
Goodness, it's been a journey, hasn't it?
Some interesting backstories, I suppose.
Spoiler free works for me - but I forgot this guy would come up and I feel dumb about it.
Not only huge upsets, but a bit of serious bracket tweakage.
We cover the X-Cutioners Song, Infinity War and we wind up talking about legacies and viruses.
We cover some serious ground here. And the 200th name couldn't have been any better.
I think I might have accidentally doubled the amount of recording. . . Well, it wasn't an accident, I didn't just "Oops, all talking". I knew what I was doing. . . But I think I usually only do 2 groups and I did 4. You're welcome.
New writer, new characters, new humor! It's a good time. . .Mostly.
