It's time to go back to my podcast origin story..... Some of you may remember 'the Fans Podcast' with Steve Fall - for a brief time in 2019 he ran a series of shows with reviews of Raw and more with the unique twist being that they would be a maximum of 5 minutes.  My very first podcast assignment for Steve, and the very first ever episode of Mid South Moments, was covering a MSW tv show from October 1983 in five minutes. As such, I've gone back to the very start of this adventure with a super cut review of last nights 'Day One Raw' show from San Diego, California.

Mark Dunderdale & Stuart Roberts are back to review the episode of WWF Superstars that aired 24 hours before WrestleMania IX. We learn about how Shawn Michaels likes to sunbathe, Randy Savage's penchant for shopping and lots more in this Las Vegas based edition of WWF's then flag ship weekly program.

Mark Dunderdale & Stuart Roberts return to look at the episode of WWF Superstars that aired on April 4th 1992 - the day before WrestleMania VIII in the 4th show of our new series 'Go Home'. All the key angles are touched on, including the Elizabeth ‘centrefold' reveal, Hogan's impending retirement and much more.

Justine Cager returns for a look back at the final stop on the road to WrestleMania VII - it's WWF Superstars from March 23rd 1991 and all the build to Hogan vs Slaughter, Savage vs Warrior and more.

James Coleman returns to the show for some inter generational family festive fun with THREE FROM.   If you're not familiar with the format, we have 8 wrestlers in a virtual hat, one is drawn out and we then watch together three of their most famous matches and have a jolly old time discussing.   The wrestlers we draw from during this episode are as follows :  'Macho Man' Randy Savage, Saya Kamitani, AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Hiroshi Tanahashi, CM Punk, Kenny Omega & Manami Toyota   Listen now to see who is picked.....!   (Episode recorded on 26th October 2023)

Our 'Go Home' series continues along with Justine Cager, looking back at the episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling that aired the day before the Ultimate Challenge & WrestleMania VI. Judge for yourself from some of the descriptions of the promos from this show just how many 'energy drinks' were being consumed in the WWF in early 1990.

The UKFF's favourite forgotten son, Swiss Roll, joins me for a look back at one of the seminal music releases of our time - The World Wrestling Federation Superstars present WrestleMania - the Album.   It featured 11 'hot tracks' as follows :  1.  WWF Superstars - WrestleMania 2.  WWF Superstars - Slam Jam 3.

We welcome Dan back to the show for a look at two shows from October 1987 in the world of the Universal Wrestling Federation - well I say that but these were ultimately two NWA infomercials for an upcoming ‘War Games' show and Starrcade 1987.   Stay with us as we try and retain some positivity thinking about the glory days of Mid South, while we watch squash after squash featuring the likes of the Road Warriors, Lex Luger & more.   Oh and there's also one of the worst finishes I've ever seen in a clip shown of the Midnight Express challenging the Rock n Roll Express for the NWA World tag team titles AND THE MIGHTY WILBUR

Sam, Alex & Tom from the Random Wrestling Review podcast join me for this look back over episodes of the UWF from August & September 1987.   The first has matches from UWF's final ever show at the Superdome including Terry Gordy vs the Angel of Death.   The second is a complete format change, with an in studio show presented by Magnum & Jim Ross including Sting & Chris Adams vs Terry Taylor & Eddie Gilbert PLUS ORIGINAL 1987 ADVERTS   There is a warning early in the show, but this is not for young ears or those with a sensitive disposition to bad language.

Hear our thoughts live from the biggest weekend in the history of Professional Wrestling in the United Kingdom :   - RevPro 11th anniversary show - Meeting 'Uncle' Dave Metlzer - AEW All In featuring  CM Punk vs Samoa Joe Chris Jericho vs Will Ospreay FTR vs the Young Bucks MJF vs Adam Cole for the AEW World Championship  AND MUCH MUCH MORE!

Dillon, Dusty Rhodes AND Magnum TA's return to the promotion on commentary.   I would highly recommend checking out the May 16th episode on YouTube (https://youtu.be/XoeARy_Smrc) as it's genuinely one of the best ones I've watched in getting on for four years covering Mid South/UWF.

The boyhood dream came true.....no I'm definitely not talking about Shawn Michaels - I'm referring  to myself, Louis & nine trips across the pond to watch WWF/WWE. This was originally recorded in September 2020 & released as a regular episode of Mid South Moments, but there's too much good stuff (arrogant) for this to be lost in the archives forever.

I've even included the Mid South Wrestling review from September 15th 1984 featuring a video package on the Fantastics & the debut of 'Master G'.
