Recorded October 2020. (Episode 256) Join Vaughn Johnson and Nick Piccone for this classic episode as they dive deep into WWF In Your House: Buried Alive! It was the 11th In Your House pay-per-view offering from the revolutionary force in sports entertainment, and it took place on October 20, 1996 at the Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, Indiana. In 1996, the World Wrestling Federation was trying some new things, especially with the nWo angle in World Championship Wrestling beginning to take off in popularity. This Buried Alive Match was one of those things, and simply put, the winner would have to bury his opponent alive. We take a deep dive, no pun intended, into the pay-per-view, where many parts were moving: Jim Ross was a heel, the show opened with a heel vs. heel match, Owen Hart/British Bulldog and the Smoking Gunns having another terrible ending to their second straight pay-per-view match, Marc Mero blew out his knee, Goldust threatened to stick his tongue down everyone's throats, Sid being super over at this time, the entrance gate, and just how much "buried alive" is buried alive? -- Follow us on Twitter/X [@_piccone] [@VaughnMJohnson] [@ShootersRadio] You can subscribe to The Straight Shooters on the following platforms: [Apple Podcasts] [Spotify] [iHeartRadio] [Amazon] [Audacy] [TuneIn Radio] [Pandora] and wherever else you get your podcasts! shooterspod.com Exclusive Patreon content: [patreon.com/shootersradio] Facebook: [The Straight Shooters] --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/shootersradio/support

We finally did it! The night that Goldust got ELECTROCUTED! IT'S HAPPENING! WWE RAW February 3rd, 2003 is historic for many different reasons. This show is the night Triple H, Randy Orton, Batista, and Ric Flair call themselves “EVOLUTION!” As Randy Orton and Bastita are looking for Scott Steiner backstage they run into Goldust. Goldust is very sad, as he just lost his tag team match with Booker T and they are no longer a team. Orton and Batista ask Goldust where Steiner is, but he refuses to answer. This pisses off Evolution and they beat the crap out of the gold one. They then throw Goldust into a power box and ELECTROCUTE HIM! This would send him into a spiral where he is never the same again! Also, Chris Jericho is battling Scott Steiner in the main event with the winner going on to face Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE No Way Out 2003!⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com
WWF was hitting all timer moments around this time and October 12th, 1998 is no different. It all started with Stone Cold driving a zamboni to the ring, then attacking Mr. McMahon in the hospital. Tonight, he is invited personally to Monday Night RAW by Mr. McMahon. To prove it's business as usual Mr. McMahon drives a corvette to the area and leaves the bay doors open. Stone Cold Steve Austin arrives to the building in a cement truck. As you can expect, he pours the cement into Mr. McMahon's prized vehicle. This created one of the greatest visuals of all time as the windows litterall bust and glass goes everywhere. Also, Triple H got hurt and they had to vacate the IC title. This leads to a one night tournament that will crown a new champion. Plus, Goldust returns, the Tag Team Titles are on the line, and this is the go home show to WWF Judgment Day.⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com
