Topics of discussion include: * Chunky candy: a thing from the 80s * Tugboat has an orange surprise for everyone * Bobby Heenan continues making fun of the Big Bossman's mother despite an incident on Challenge * Pez Whatley running a Sgt. Al Powell tribute gimmick * Dusty Rhodes rolls out a new look on the Brother Love Show * Bill Watts and his "bar fight" rule * Peter breaks out his own Modern Honky out of nowhere * Giving Jade Cargill a little bit more credit for her WrestleMania match, and others who don't get enough credit because the opponent was a "better worker"

Welcome to episode #49 of NWA Crock 'n' Roll where we jump out of the timeline and head back to 1984 for another Pre-Crockett timeline watch. In this one we take a look at a Ric Flair title defense in World Class against Gentleman Chris Adams, a six-man tag stacked with star power, a Jimmy Valiant match that gets the crew hot, a chaotic bunkhouse match from Mid-South involving Dusty Rhodes, and a pair of Mid-Atlantic tag matches, which cancels out the Valiant abomination. Come for the Crockett and stay for the bad takes, as we dive back into the good old days of professional wrestling.

Kevin Gergel played at Georgia Tech, became an All-American catcher at Kennesaw State, was drafted by the Seattle Mariners — and saw his pro career end almost before it really began. So when his son Kellan was four years old and starting T-ball, Kevin and his wife Teal created their philosophy that has shaped every decision they've made around travel baseball ever since:  The goal was not to raise the best 8-year-old on the field. The goal was to raise the best 18-year-old. That philosophy changed how they approached travel baseball, development, exposure, pressure, failure, and the parent-player relationship. In this episode, Matt Hannaford sits down with Kevin and Kellan Gergel for a real conversation about what most baseball families are missing: the long game. Because exposure is not the goal. Exposure is the byproduct of becoming the kind of player worth watching.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN - The philosophy Kevin and Teal built their decisions around — and why it reshaped everything they did from T-ball through high school - Why Matt argues that exposure is a byproduct, not a goal — and how most travel ball parents are getting things backwards  - The moment Kevin realized that trying to fix his son's batting stance was the wrong approach - 90% of players say the mental game is the most important part of baseball — but how much of their time spent training actually reflects that - Austin Riley's 2019: didn't make the Big League team out of spring training, but despite that, hit 15 home runs in three weeks in AAA, called up, hit 9 more in his first 18 big league games and then hit a wall forcing him to make an adjustment   Kellan is 15, stands six-foot-one, and plays for the East Cobb Mariners — one of the most talent-dense travel areas in the country. His coach Kenny Falk played at Kennesaw State with Kevin, got drafted by the Tigers as a AAA closer, and runs the program on a development-first, blue-collar philosophy. Kellan wants to play college baseball. His current goals are velocity on the mound, driving the ball harder at the plate, and working his way from JV to varsity at Blessed Trinity in Roswell — the same program where Joseph Contreras, the senior who pitched for Team Brazil at the WBC and got Aaron Judge to ground into a broken-bat double play, throws bullpens next to him.  Matt walks Kellan through the mental exercise he ran at an event in San Diego with high performance coach Johan Martinez Khalilian — asking a parent of a player to name a complaint, then tracing the complaint back to the underlying vision. Kellan deflects it in a way that tells Matt everything he needs to know: this kid already has the frame most pro athletes spend years trying to build. Matt learns of Kevin's nightly ritual when Kellan was young — telling him "you have what it takes, you have what it takes" — and the parallel humble huddle the family built around it.  The conversation also touches on an unusual family lineage. Kellan's mother Teal is the daughter of Dusty Rhodes and the sister of Cody Rhodes, the current WWE Undisputed Champion. Kevin walks through what his brother-in-law's "undesirable to undeniable" mindset has meant for how Kellan thinks about betting on himself — and why the family's grounding in faith, family, and work has held up across three very different sports at three very different levels.  Matt closes with a rapid-fire round. When he asks Kevin to finish the sentence "my biggest fear for him on the baseball field is..." Kevin's answer is the line that frames the whole episode: my biggest fear is that he'll feel like he has to perform. I've already had more joy watching him play than I will ever need.   ABOUT MATT HANNAFORD Matt Hannaford is the president and CEO of Aligned Sports Agency and the host of the Most Valuable Agent podcast.

Marc Mero — WCW's Johnny B. Badd, former WWF star, Golden Gloves boxer, and one of the most unexpectedly real conversations you're going to hear on this podcast — pulls into the Krazy Train and holds absolutely nothing back. Jasmin St. Claire and Mero swap locker room rib stories involving the Iron Sheik and Owen Hart before the whole thing takes a sharp left turn into the kind of territory most wrestlers never talk about on camera. Mero breaks down how Boris Malenko trained him, how Dusty Rhodes discovered him, and how the glitter and flashbulbs of the Johnny B. Badd era were covering up a decade-long cocaine addiction that nearly killed him — multiple overdoses included. This isn't a highlight reel. This is the wreckage and the rebuild, told by the man who lived it. Because the man who bottomed out in front of a mirror at Gold's Gym is now the man filling school auditoriums across the country with a youth speaking program that went viral thanks to Diamond Dallas Page's crew and turned into one of the most-booked anti-drug, mental health programs in America. They get into smartphones destroying an entire generation, fentanyl wiping out kids who don't even know what they're taking, WWE's schedule changes under TKO, XWF memories with Mr. Perfect, and why Marc Mero at a convention might be the most real human being in the building. Find him at thinkpoz.org. Come correct.

If you've ever tuned in to watch Dale Earnhardt Jr. on the Download before, you might have noticed some professional wrestling action figures in the studio backdrop. On this week's episode, Dale Jr. has the opportunity to sit down with the likeness of one of these figurines: the legendary Magnum T.A. Dale has often shared his love for professional wrestling while growing up, watching on Saturday mornings after cartoon matinees had concluded. It was through this programming that he took notice of Magnum and Dusty Rhodes, as well as the other icons of the 1980s independent scene.  Magnum, whose real name is Terry Wayne Alan, explains that although he was a semi-successful wrestler on the collegiate level, he never dreamed of being a professional. His path into the sport came through a bartending gig he had while attending school in the Chesapeake, Virginia area. His training took him to the Pacific Northwest, where he'd forge a friendship with the legendary Andre the Giant, who was responsible for creating the Magnum T.A. persona. Terry would be on a fast track to becoming the World Heavyweight Champion when a tragic 1986 car crash changed his life forever. He and Dale talk about the state of wrestling in the 80s, unlikely paths in life, and having to give up something you love before you're ready.

Clay and Jamie Creel ditch the politics and dive headfirst into the glory days of territorial wrestling. From the Jackson Coliseum and Trade Mart to Mid-South, WCCW, USWA, and the NWA, the guys trade stories about Junkyard Dog (and his Stagger Lee run), the Freebirds vs. Von Erichs Texas Stadium wars, Kamala's terrifying debut at the Armory, the Road Warriors pop, and the Blade Runners (Sting & Ultimate Warrior) making their first appearance. They break down the Iron Claw movie, Stone Cold's glass-shattering religious experience at WrestleMania, and why the Freebirds' “Bad Street U.S.A.” entrance song still slaps harder than anything today. Listener calls and texts spark a heated Mount Rushmore debate—Hogan, Austin, The Rock, and Ric Flair get the nods, with honorable mentions flying for Dusty Rhodes, Harley Race, Andre the Giant, Ted DiBiase, Macho Man, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Steiner Brothers, Rock & Roll Express, and more. Pure nostalgia, belly laughs, and “you had to be there” tales from two lifelong marks who still mark out when that glass breaks. If you grew up on Saturday morning Mid-South, Memphis, or World Class, this hour is for you.

This week on Regional Rasslin, Jammie Ward returns to join Ray Russell in discussing the month of May 1982 in the Georgia territory. Roddy Piper is involved in TWO major angles as he tries to break the hand of Tommy Rich, AND the Hot Rod also costs Michael Hayes a match on TV against Bill White! From there, some great storytelling in the short but memorable feud between Leroy Brown vs. NWA World Champion Ric Flair. Listener John Walker writes in with detailed results from Marion, OH and the notable lazy work from Big John "Grizzly" Studd. Tommy Rich attempts to regain the National Title from Buzz Sawyer. Ted Dibiase is back in Georgia. We look at Omni results when Dusty Rhodes & Tommy Rich team up for the first time ever vs. Rod Piper & Ole Anderson. Jerry Brisco is named Vice President of GCW.

Dangerously and Missy Hyatt kickstart their feud that would last many months.Konnan, Steve DiSalvo as THE MINOTAUR, and Larry Cameron appear on TV in “blink and you'll miss it” runs.Dusty Rhodes officially taking over as the head booker and making his big return at the Clash of the Champions…just 11 days after his WWF farewell at the Royal Rumble.Ric Flair regaining the NWA World Heavyweight Title (and winning his first WCW World Heavyweight Title; it's complicated) from Sting at the Meadowlands on a show also featuring Lawrence Taylor seconding Lex Luger in a Football Match against The Big Cat during a blizzard in the NYC area.Arn Anderson and Barry Windham hit the streets as the Horsemen have been reborn in some AMAZING vignettes.The debut of Sullivan's Saloon.The United States entering the Persian Gulf War and how that changed the way wars are covered on television.Diamond Dallas Page makes his WCW debut.Rundowns of the Golden Globes and American Music Awards, featuring Gloria Estefan making her public return after her near death experience in a bus accident a year earlier.Michael Wallstreet walking out of WCW,Steve Urkel showing up on Full HouseSuper Bowl XXV, which was, at the time, the greatest Super Bowl ever, but totally overshadowed by Whitney Houston's amazing rendition of the Star Spangled BannerDivinyls, Jesus Jones, and Gerardo respectively release "I Touch Myself,” “Right Here, Right Now,” and “Rico Suave” on the same day.Clash of the Champions XIV featuing Ric Flair vs. Scott Steiner and a whole lot more.This was a tremendous show and a fascinating glimpse at how WCW was perceived as Dusty Rhodes takes over and implements his booking philosophy.---To support the show and get access to exclusive rewards like special members-only monthly themed shows, go to our Patreon page at Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets and become an ongoing Patron.

On this episode of What Happened When, the voice of our childhood Tony Schiavone and host Conrad Thompson take us back 40 years for a true NWA/Jim Crockett Promotions classic. A major shift is underway as the National Tag Team Championships are officially rebranded into the United States Tag Team Championships, with Jim Crockett Promotions devoting much of the program to hyping a one-night tournament at the Omni to crown the very first champions. There's no shortage of action and intrigue elsewhere on the card. Wahoo McDaniel captures the National Heavyweight Championship by defeating Tully Blanchard at the Forum in Los Angeles. The Kansas Jayhawks confront Jim Cornette and Big Bubba, Ric Flair delivers a standout TV match against Mike Jackson, and the show closes with chaos as The Four Horsemen confront Dick Murdoch only for Dusty Rhodes and Magnum T.A. to hit the ring for a thrilling finish. Fall is nearly here in 1986, and with it comes excitement, tension, and heartbreak. This is Jim Crockett Promotions in the '80s at its absolute finest—don't miss this nostalgic deep dive on What Happened When.

Bull James (formerly known as Bull Demspey at NXT) made his pro-wrestling debut at the age of 17, spent 18 months working with Taz, got schooled in the biz by Matt Borne (aka Doink The Clown), and has some great stories about the one & only, Dusty Rhodes. Bull's also talking about mean streaks & flipping the switch, cutting a good promo, his NXT try out, when he knew his days at WWE were numbered, body types in the squared circle, and some of his own heroes in the biz.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
