But, a little-known fact about Tommy's career is that he was the head writer of WWE (WWF at the time)) during their most successful period, starting in 1999, taking over for Vince Russo, who left for the competition. This podcast, Tales from the Attitude Era will be a retrospective of Tommy's time in the head writer position and the roller coaster ride that is pro wrestling, co-hosted by Rob Pasbani. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, Edgar and Mr. Bludd take the creative gloves off for their weekly one-on-one showdown—and things get chaotic. They're not just talking shop about the wrestling world... they're fantasy-booking Evolution 2, and it's anything but ordinary.

Ohhhh hell yeah! Strap in and grab a cold one, ‘cause this week's episode of your podcast is diving headfirst into one of the wildest damn nights from the Attitude Era — WWE Raw is War, October 30th, 2000 — and baby, it's an all-out chaos buffet with extra steel cage mayhem.We're talkin' Stone Cold Steve Austin unleashing straight-up Texas Rattlesnake vengeance on Rikishi inside a freakin' steel cage! No rules, no mercy, and definitely no regrets. Rikishi tried to run him down a year ago — now Austin's dishing out the kind of ass-whooping you can feel through your Walkman. Blood, sweat, and middle fingers. Classic Attitude.But wait — things get even weirder (and a little sexy, let's be real) when Commissioner Mick Foley, rockin' that Santa Claus-meets-Jerry Garcia energy, pulls a surprise power move and introduces his brand-new Lt. Commissioner… Debra. Yeah, that Debra. Cookies and cleavage with a badge. The boys in the back better tighten up, ‘cause the new sheriff in town isn't afraid to throw some attitude of her own.Then it's The Rock vs. Chris Jericho in a #1 Contender's match that SLAPS harder than a Stunner. Two icons, one winner — and it's the People's Champ who comes out on top. But just when you think he's headed for glory, here comes Rikishi with a chair, a grudge, and a whole damn confession that shakes the arena.“He told me to do it…”Who told you, Rikishi? WHO?! Oh, you know who. The Rock's once-tight alliance with Rikishi officially goes up in flames like a flaming table at a Dudley Boyz barbecue.This Raw was messy, violent, hilarious, and absolutely unforgettable. Just how we like it. So hit play and let's relive this Monday night madness — because the Attitude Era never died… it just got louder on your podcast.

HBK loses his smile and throws the WWE into chaos! We discuss how his selfish lies almost derailed the road to wrestlemania. Plus Chyna debuts! The first battle between Hunter and Rock And we discuss Mercdes Mone and her quest to win all the belts.

Middle East Again - Israel launched a series of airstrikes against Iran early Friday morning local time, targeting locations it said were related to Iran's nuclear program, sparking market fears of a wider conflict. - Mohammad Hossein Bagheri, chief of the Iranian Armed Forces and the country's most senior military official, was killed during the strikes, alongside the commander-in-chief of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hossein Salami, Iranian state media reported. - The Israeli airstrikes also targeted and killed two of Iran's leading nuclear scientists, Fereydoun Abbasi-Davani and Mohammad Mehdi Tehranchi, according to Iranian news outlets. - Odd timing? - Markets initially took it better than expected - until Iran stuck back Valuations - As of the most recent update on June 5, 2025, the forward P/E ratio of the S&P 500 is 21.70.

Historically, the first year of a president's second term (4 years apart in this case) often mirrors the first year of a new presidency in terms of market behavior—marked by uncertainty, policy re-calibration, and sometimes muted performance - While the first half of the first year can be choppy due to post-election adjustments and early policy moves, the second half—especially Q4—has historically shown stronger performance. This is often attributed to: Stabilizing policy direction after early-year volatility Investor optimism around fiscal planning and budget cycles Seasonal tailwinds like the holiday rally and year-end portfolio rebalancing Presidential Cycle UK Economy- This is why we need to dig further than the headline (more beneath the surface) - The U.K. economy shrank sharply in April as global trade tariffs and domestic tax rises kicked in, data showed Thursday. - The latest monthly growth figures from the Office for National Statistics showed the U.K. economy contracted 0.3% month on month in April, following growth of 0.2% in March. - It was also more than the 0.1% fall economists were expecting. - “After increasing for each of the four preceding months, April saw the largest monthly fall on record in goods exports to the United States with decreases seen across most types of goods, following the recent introduction of tariffs,” --- The real culprit: ----- Domestic tax rises have also been blamed for the steep decline in economic activity. British businesses have been confronted with an increase in national insurance contributions and rise in the minimum age from the start of April, while a temporary tax break on property purchases also came to an end in March. - ----The change in the Stamp Duty Land Tax (paid when buying property or land) in April meant there was a decrease of 63.5% in U.K. residential property transactions from the previous month, the ONS noted, with buyers rushing to complete purchases before the tax break ended.

Et voila, Teil zwei unserer Wrestling Geschichte über das kurze Glühen und Verglühen eines Stars am Wrestling Himmels: Chyna.Wir machen ausgedehnte Ausflüge ins Mormoninnentum und eine Parallelwelt in der Chyna auch eine secret live of a mormon wife mitsamt Lavenderhusband gehabt haben könnte. Und weil die Show schon längst nicht mehr nur im Ring geblieben ist, sondern jetzt mitsamt einiger ihrer einflussreichsten Akteur*innen in der Regierung die Strippen Richtung Faschismus zieht, nehmen wir die McMahons, ihre Beziehung zu Trump und ihre Kakistokratie nochmal genauer unter die Lupe. Wie ein Vulkan eruptieren wir und bedecken Euch alle mit einer glühenden Schicht Insights zu den Strippenziehern hinter Chynas Untergang, Verschwörungsmythen und ihre Rollen in der aktuellen Trump-Regierung. Es geht im Bildungspolitik, Politik-Influencer-Dynastien und Kinder, die sich mehr gegen ihre Eltern wehren sollten.

Are you ready to rumble?! Wir sind endlich zurück und haben die Geschichte des 9. Weltwunders, Chnya, dabei. Das Leben der einzigartigen WWE Wrestlerin ist aus einer Vielzahl von Gründen höchst relevant für unsere Gegenwart und verdient Aufmerksamkeit. Da Rebekka in ihrem neuen Buch nicht 50 Seiten mit Wrestling füllen durfte, kanonisieren wir Chyna und ihr Leben nun hier! Es geht um die 90er und 00er Jahre, um Genderperformance, um Beauty und Backpreifen, um Medien und um viele reiche Säcke, die kein Problem damit haben eine Frau zu zerstören, solange sie nur an ihr verdienen.

SmackDown (9/21/2000) was an unhinged, sex-fueled fever dream—and we're here to break down every wild second of it.

It's another current events discussion during evening prep. Think of it as toner, psyops, highlites, active operations, face cleanse and global events. Gossip first. Taking care of what you have. Chyna's new Covid comes with weird timing. The free drones too. Gov Cuomo sent body bags along with the patients. The DEI judge for SCOTUS. We are supposed to be helping humanity move forward. Don't envy anyone. There are a lot of operations still happening. They knew in 2020 that Remdesivir had a 50% mortality rate. People with high IQ's often struggle in life. What does it mean when geniuses tell you something. A 2019 wire tap involving five eyes. The installation of Joe Biden. Accessories make the character. Rigging the election after Ukraine was finalized. There is good and bad Mossad. Same with DARPA. Favors were called in for the country. Ron Klain enters the picture. There was a back up plan for Hunter. People's ego is often their downfall. Dunn, Dunn and Dunn. It will end up with a move to impeach 44. The FBI knew something was in the drawer. Here's how it will go on the auto pen situation. It's a step ladder to Obama and Roberts. Always give people the benefit of the doubt, because it's the righteous thing to do.

Grading Kyle Dubas as GM. Revisiting Luke Shenn's contributions to the Pens. An examination of how 2nd and 3rd round picks have fared over the past decade. It doesn't usually produce All-Stars.

Hal Gill joins to discuss his Pens memories, "the piece", his evaluation of the Pens trades, Crosby superstition stories, what he did with the Stanley Cup. Poni shares a Gill story.

One caller says it's a bad idea to keep him, but a worse idea to trade him. Jeff is South Park seems downtrodden, and is ok with keeping Rakell. Conor Timmons is heading to Pittsburgh. Will he bring hardness? Mark Kaboly joins to discuss the possibility of neither Russ nor Fields returning. What is the max the Steelers would go on Fields? We steal a free association from Starkey for Steelers QB options. Is there a Kyle Allen front? Who is the favorite to sign Fields if not the Steelers? Fish fry discussion. Kaboly hates sushi, wine, and many things it seems. Jonathan Allen was cut loose. Could he be the answer for the Steelers in the short term? How about Darius Slay? Will the Steelers actually trade for a real WR? Inflation will change how the contracts look this offseason. Arthur Smith reportedly was the top choice for UNC. Is there any chance Najee returns? Playboy discussion and Chyna at a strip club. Kaboly 3 free agent predictions for the Steelers - Slayton, DJ Reed, Dobbins. Poni was distracted by looking at Sable's Playboy. Rakell could be a key for Crosby's potential milestone. Do we feel better about the team now after the deadline? He gets an A for today. Have any of us been to a billionaires' house? Former Steelers reporter Ed Bouchette joins to discuss his retirement life, movies he's been watching, Kirk Cousins might be released, who makes the decision for the next Steelers' QB, does this current run resemble any previous eras of the team.
