Marsh and I return from our Holiday break to begin the final 7 episodes of the original PWS run! We discuss the movie The Iron Claw, The Rock's return to WWE and the recent goings on with AEW before going back in time to pull some classic clips from the past. Don Laible joins us in the studio back in 1994 - having come to NY for the weekend to attend the ECW event in Philadelphia, and the autograph show that we attended that same weekend in New Jersey. Bob Orton is also on the show and discusses his 14 year old son Randy in a fascinating part of the interview! Brian Last calls in with a lengthy report from the NWA tournament promoted by Dennis Coraluzzo, which makes for another very cool part of this show. Lots of callers, promos, and classic commercials. And the answer to the question that has driven Arezzi nuts over the past several weeks, involving identifying the music a caller from 29 years played as a prank. This week you get the answer lol!

Wrestlecup Episode - Worst 2nd Generation SuperstarSome apples don't fall far from the tree. When you think of Rocky Johnson, you will counter with the Rock. Randy Orton exceeded his dad Bob Orton, and how about Roman Reigns. Well that old saying isn't always true in wrestling. For every Bret Hart, there is a David Flair. For every Eddie Guerrero you have a David Sammartino. This is a Wrestlecup like no other if you focus on the surnames...but unfortunately there is no Kerry Von Erich, or Gerald Briscoe, instead we have Wes and Lacey. But who is the worst 2nd Generation star in Wrestling history? Better Call Creative are back to dust of the Wrestlecup once again to crown it's Worst ever 2nd Generation Star in a 16 person knockout tournament like no other!

On this edition of The Master's Class, our masters Dave LaGreca, Mark Henry, Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer pay tribute to some of the greatest patriarchs in the history of pro wrestling. Plus, you'll hear incredible and emotional stories from our hosts in appreciation of how their very own father's played a significant role in their legendary wrestling careers.
