Podcast appearances and mentions of Bob Backlund

On this episode of the Hands of Z, the .5 series continues as this episode is all about "What About Bob?" Shawn and Keith watch two matches, once centered on Bob Backlund and one with Bob Armstrong! Backlund defends the WWF Title against Sgt. Slaughter from MSG 10/22/83 and Bob Armstrong challenges Tully Blanchard for the NWA TV Title from April 1987!

It's Handicap Match Mania on Smackdown this episode, and we dive into why there were four handicap matches booked on this show. With just under a month to WrestleMania 2000, it was an episode to build heat on the heels. Also on this episode, Bob Backlund and Taz trade submissions, Steve Blackman and Jeff Hardy wow the crowd, Crash Holly escapes out of a laundromat with his title, and Edge spears Lita!Watch this episode on Youtube.Follow Tales from The Attitude Era on all social mediahttp://youtube.com/@TFTAttitudeEra http://twitter.com/TFTAttitudeErahttp://instagram.com/TFTAttitudeErahttp://tiktok.com/@TFTAttitudeEraTommy Blacha made his name in Hollywood as a writer on Conan O'Brien, co-creator of Metalocalypse on Adult Swim, and a writer on shows like The Eric Andre Show and Da Ali G Show.

The Shining Wizards Return with a jam packed show. The boys catch up & bring back Over The Top. This leads to discussions about AAA/WWE Worlds Collide. Matt is upset about it being on Youtube, while HK & Tony enjoyed the show, even if they disagree on Vikingo. We somehow end up talking about MLW War Chamber for a few minutes. Conversation turns to Money in the Bank & our PPV Picks. We talk about the matches & the results. Plus the return of R Truth. Back from the break Brundo tells us about his trip to GCW for Tournament of Survival. And Tony finds us a video of people eating cereal out of other people's mouths. We spend a few minutes talking about AEW, and realize that 4 straight hours on a Wednesday Night wasn't for us. Then it's time for a new segment, as Handsome Kevin gives us 2 in the Pink, 1 in the Stink, as we try to guess the best & worst from an HK chosen topic. We then go on to talk about last week's homework as we talk Bret Hart vs Bob Backlund from Superstars 1994. Handsome Kevin then sends us back to SummerSlam 2005 for next week's homework as we are assigned to watch Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero. A lot of laughs and a fun show.

The Big Five Project returns to bring 1994 to an end as the guys cover Survivor Series '94. As 1994 came to an end, the winds of change continued to sweep through the WWF and that was highly evident on a November evening in San Antonio. A better event than the year before, Survivor Series '94 featured the break-up of Shawn Michaels and Diesel, a feud that would extend all the way to WrestleMania XI. Meanwhile, Survivor Series '94 would see a shocking WWF Championship title change as Bob Backlund, with a huge assist from Owen Hart, would dethrone Bret "Hitman" Hart in an unforgettable, emotionally charged, and highly controversial match. Thanks to Bret's mother, Mr. Backlund became the oldest WWF Champion in history (at the time) and Owen Hart showed us all just how low he would stoop to screw his brother over. Add in some solid Survivor Series matches, a special appearance by Chuck Norris, and The Undertaker exacting a measure of revenge against Yokozuna and we are left with a very solid PPV to close out 1994! We have all the details for you here, on another epic installment of the Big Five Project.About the Chairshot Radio NetworkCreated in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in wrestling and wrestling crossover podcasts, including POD is WAR, Women's Wrestling Talk, Chairshot Radio daily editions, The #Miranda Show, Badlands' Wrestling Mount Rushmores, The Outsider's Edge, DWI Podcast, Bandwagon Nerds, the Greg DeMarco Show, 3 Man Weave, Five Rounds, Turnbuckle Talk, The Reaction, Attitude Of Aggression, and more!

In this week's Interview Classic episode from ten years ago (7-27-2019), Wade Keller and guest cohost Bruce Mitchell interviewed with Sgt. Slaughter. Sarge has not done many interviews before, and none of this length and scope and depth. It took place in front of a live audience on July 26, 2019 at the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame event at the Five Sullivan Brothers Convention Center. In this interview, Slaughter walks through his career from the start, going territory to territory, and character to character, detailing the highlights of his time in each territory and some of the big names he crossed paths with, butted heads with, wrestled again, or shared road trips with including Vince McMahon Sr., Vince McMahon Jr., Pat Patterson, Bob Backlund, Verne Gagne, Wally Karbo, Dusty Rhodes, Hulk Hogan, Iron Sheik, and so many others. It's one of those infrequent “must listen” interviews that the audience and hosts knew as it was happening was something special.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.
