On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts Podcast, we return to 1985, where we watch TWO episodes, one from Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling and one from WCW, as Magnum T.A. seeks an I Quit Match against Tully Blanchard at Starrcade. The NWA President doesn't want to sanction it, but Magnum has a back up plan. Also on this episode, we can WAY deep into Dusty Rhode's physical therapy as the entire Horsemen proclaim Dusty coming back is a "medical impossibility". Plus, Jimmy Valiant finds himself taken with a lively new lady! All this plus more, including 16 matches that all kind of suck. Won't you join us?

Kris and David are guestless as we discuss the (almost)-week that was February 15-20, 1994. Topics of discussion include:WWF firing Marty Jannetty for at least the fourth time overall and the third time in just two years.Vince McMahon co-hosting Radio WWF with Jim Ross — and it's a doozy.Shinya Hashimoto beating Genichiro Tenryu for the first time as New Japan is red hot.UWFi running a big grandstand angle at a press conference challenging all the big champions in Japan.The very first match between Chris Benoit and Sabu taking place on a NWA New Jersey show.The status of Paul E. Dangerously with both Jim Crockett's WWN and Tod Gordon's ECW.Bob Armstrong returning as SMW Commissioner.The Thrillseekers officially “signing their contracts” on SMW TV.A wild update on the Jerry Lawler statutory rape case in Louisville.Eddie Gilbert running wild on Memphis TV.An update on Hulk Hogan in WCW.A detailed look at WCW SuperBrawl IV, one of the most forgotten PPV's in WCW history in part because it was never released on home video.That sounds like a great show, doesn't it?

On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts Podcast, we have our very first episode in MID-ATLANTIC CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING, Jim Crockett Promotions, the NWA! It's 1985, Starrcade is just around the corner, and Dusty Rhodes saves Ric Flair from a beatdown, only to get beaten down by the Andersons! Hmmm, Ric Flair and the Andersons, what a group. If there were four of them, I bet they could have a really cool group name. But will Dusty ever recover from this heinous injury? Also on this episode, Ric Flair being Ric Flair, the wonderful insanity of Boogie Woogie Jimmy Valiant, way too much history about the NWA, and so, so many squash matches. Won't you join us?

It is our pleasure to give to you this interview of wrestling royalty. David Crockett is the son of Jim Crockett, Sr. who created an entertainment empire in the south, but is most famous for running the "Charlotte" territory in wrestling, better known as Mid-Atlantic Wrestling/Jim Crockett Promotions/NWA/World Championship Wrestling. He came to us to let the world know he'll be at the Virginia Championship Wrestling's Tidings of Destruction on December 2nd to wish his good friend George Pantas well in his retirement after 50 years in wrestling. David shares with us some great stories from both his territory days and his days with Ted Turner's WCW. He shares with us the anxiety surrounding Vince McMahon's aggressive push into the southern territories and television. David doesn't hold back about the business of the past and present. Rich and Tim talk everything from Broadway, to James Brown, to ACC Football, to Ric Flair at the Baltimore Marriott. He even sheds a little more light on WCW's decision to pass on The Rock. Mr. Crockett is the genuine real deal and came to us to share his story and his family's legacy and influence over the athletic theatrical art that we love so much. We are honored to bestow upon him the title of "Friend of the Show."   Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/wrestlingarchives Virginia Championship Wrestling: https://vcwprowrestling.com/tidings-of-destruction-december-2nd-in-norfolk/

Oh hell yeah! The Rock 'n' Roll Express are going into the WWE Hall of Fame! It's about dang time! And Robert Gibson is not only talking about how that feels, he's also sharing stories from the 40 years in the ring that it took em to get there! Hear how he got teamed up with Ricky Morton, where the name and look came from, what it was like working for Bill Watts, Jim Crockett, and Jerry Lawler, and how he got Jim Cornette to stop shoot-swinging that tennis racquet at him! Robert also remembers their feud with The Midnight Express, working matches with Ole & Arn Anderson, being fired from WCW, and the one night that 3,000 fans that basically wrecked his brand new, black trans-am.

Welcome back to another episode of The Lawcast! This time our hosts cover Battleground 2013, a mostly forgettable show with one absolutely unforgettable match. The unforgettable match in question is Cody and Dustin Rhodes teaming for the first time ever to take on The Shield in a match where their jobs are on the line. They're fighting not just for their careers, but also for their family legacy as Dusty Rhodes will also be fired if they lose. This is the storyline that should have launched Cody Rhodes to WWE stardom but instead it launched him to being Stardust.Filling out the rest of the card we've got Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton for the vacant WWE Championship plus CM Punk vs. Ryback. It's not the strongest time for WWE creative which makes the Rhodes/Shield match stand out even more.At the top of the show we discuss: 1) The Tuesday Night War, 2) Reports that CM Punk will NOT be returning to WWE and 3) Has Vince McMahon been frozen out of WWE's creative process?Plus since this show is clearly inspired by Jim Crockett Promotions, we play a game for "What is the Jim Crockett equivalent of this match?"

September 15th, Joe Cazana Promotions brings the stars of the National Wrestling Alliance to the Tennessee Valley Fair. This huge event will feature legends from the Knoxville area, the NWA World Women's Champion, the NWA Women's Tag Team Champions, as well as the NWA National Champion. It will also feature the rising stars of Wide World of Wrestling. On this episode of the Alliance Blog Podcast, we'll speak to Joe Cazana who started his wrestling career working for Jim Crockett and the NWA. We'll discuss his time in the Smoky Mountain. We'll also discuss working with today's NWA and his JCP. All this and more.

Ricky Morton, one half of the legendary Rock ‘n' Roll Express tag team, returns to the show with his son, Kerry Morton, the current NWA World Junior Heavyweight Champion. The father-son duo have been tagging on the indie scene, and talk about what that's been like, and how they enjoy working with Billy Corgan and NWA. Ricky also shares some stories from his days in the ring with Robert Gibson, working with Dusty Rhodes and Jim Crockett, and their big feuds with the Midnight Express and Jim Cornette. Ricky details the time he won the World title from Ric Flair, and the circumstances that led to him surrendering the belt right after he won it! He talks about working for NWA in the ‘80s, why he and Robert jumped to Smokey Mountain Wrestling in the early 90s, and what motivates him to keep getting in the ring today.  Thank you for supporting our sponsors!Gametime – Download the Gametime app, create an account, and use the promo code TIJ to get $20 off.Factor – visit https://factormeals.com/TIJ40 and use code TIJ40 to get 40% off your first boxeBay Motors: get the right parts, the right fit, and the right prices. https://ebaymotors.comMetro By T-Mobile: Switch and get unlimited 5G starting at $25 a month per line for 4 lines, and a FREE 5G phone.Toyota: Visit https://toyota.com/GRFamily to find your perfect Toyota!Bosch Tools: learn more at https://www.boschtools.com/us/en/SlingTV: check out https://www.sling.com/ for special offers  STAY CONNECTED:TikTok: @ChrisJerichoInstagram: @talkisjericho @chrisjerichofozzy Twitter: @TalkIsJericho @IAmJerichoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisJerichoFozzyWebsite: https://www.webisjericho.com/

Missy Hyatt and her loaded Gucci bag are raisin' hell on Steve Austin Unleashed! She's got stories about working with Sunshine at WCCW, taking shoot beatings from Dark Journey, the disaster that was the short-lived "Missy's Manor" at WWE, how she and Eddie Gilbert ended up at WCW, and why Eric Bischoff opted not to renew her contract. She's also talking about her time at UWF, working for Jim Crockett, and the best advice she got from the great Dusty Rhodes.

Happy [preferred winter solstice-adjacent holiday], everyone! As has become something of a tradition, we're releasing a past deep dive Patreon special episode of Between the Sheets for free! Well, actually, we're giving you TWO Patreon specials for free, as this is a supercut of our two shows covering Kip Frey's few months running WCW! For dozens more deep dives like this, including our six-part ECW on TNN series, our two-part Death of ECW series, other entries in the Paul Heyman Expanded Universe, our four-part WCW sale series, our four-part series on the 1992 WWF “Titangate” scandals, our classic two-part series on John Collins' doomed MECW startup, and MUCH more, all you need to do is sign up for our Patreon at just the $5/month level ($50.40/year if you pay for a year up front) or higher by going to Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets.----------It's time for a new series of Patreon specials as we dive into attorney Kip Allen Frey's brief run as the Executive Vice President of World Championship Wrestling, which covered parts of January through May of 1992. In part one of two, Kris and David look at Jim Herd's forced resignation from the job, Herd scorching earth in his last meeting, Lex Luger's disappearing act, Frey's steroid policy for WCW and how it differed from the WWF's, who got fired or reassigned and why, what Frey got right, Frey's trust in Dusty Rhodes, Frey AND Dusty(!) going on the record with Mark Madden in the Torch, the many things attributed to Bill Watts that were actually Frey's doing, the infamous "best match" performance bonuses, rebuilding the calamitous live event department, Jim Crockett regaining and losing some power in short order, Lex Luger's transformation into a neon sign, and much, much more.This is a tremendous show, and we hope you all enjoy it!----------It's time for our second and final dive into attorney Kip Allen Frey's brief run as the Executive Vice President of World Championship Wrestling, covering April through the very beginning of June of 1992. Topics include how it should have been obvious to Frey that he was never a permanent pick, Wade Keller's "Torch Talk" interview with Frey, Jim Ross's thoughts on Frey in his own "Torch Talk" and if he knew that Bill Watts was being hired, Lex Luger showing up on WWF TV, Jack Petrik being reassigned to the Cartoon Network, the launch and original format of WCW Saturday Night, WCW's rumored negotiations with Bill Fralic, a review of the wrestlers' Frey-mandated anti-steroid PSAs, Rick Rude arguing with Dr. David Black about steroids, Bill Watts as new WCW boss coming out of nowhere, Frey quitting to be reassigned within TBS, and much, much more. This is another fantastic show, and we hope you all enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed recording it.Timestamps:0:00:00 January 1992 0:45:05 February 1992 1:37:30 March 1992 2:16:59 April 19923:39:42 May-June 1992To 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.

One of the taglines for this event was, "Glory Bound." There was nothing glorious about this one as Dusty Rhodes tries to out-shine the main event cage match by going for the United States Title in a cage right before it. Ron Garvin was also the defending World Champion, and he couldn't draw flies if he was rolled in cow crap. The Rock 'n' Roll Express vs. Midnight Express match should have been great, but it was put on a stupid scaffold. Terry Taylor had to do some heavy lifting in the TV Title match against Nikita Koloff. "Dr. Death" Steve Williams and Barry Windham even stunk up the joint with a fairly boring encounter for the UWF World Title. The Road Warriors, in their kayfabe hometown, also get screwed by an infamous Dusty Finish that pretty much kills Chicago for JCP forever. Two other "major" things happened on this show, as Bill Watts' UWF was recently bought out by Jim Crockett and they combined as The Wrestling Network (TWN) and had multiple Title Unification matches on this show. Also, this was the first year that the WWF ran Survivor Series and put it on free TV to go against Starrcade on pay-per-view. Because of that, starting in 1988, Starrcade was moved to December. In the news, we cover WCCW and AWA trying to hang on by the thinnest of threads, the NWA's business tanking, multiple hirings, firings, and quittings, and Uncle Dave Meltzer giving a hilarious bad take on Ron Simmons, plus much more!ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)KEEP YOUR COFFEE GIMMICK FREE AND FRESH ROASTED TO ORDER WITH COFFEE BRAND COFFEE: https://coffeebrandcoffee.com/?ref=WC7vE0tK (promo code: MAINEVENT for 5% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS

It's crazy to think about Ric Flair being "the young, up-and-coming, next big thing" in wrestling, but in 1983, he was! This show was possibly the only time Jim Crockett beat Vince McMahon as he got a big, annual, tent-pole event to closed circuit before the WWF did with WrestleMania. A lot of the matches on this show were throw-aways, but we've got some big match-ups as well. Roddy Piper and Greg Valentine battle it out in a Dog Collar match, which co-host Greg deems "the REAL most dangerous match in wrestling," the Briscos (Jack & Jerry) defend their Tag Titles against Ricky Steamboat and Jay Youngblood, and of course, Harley Race defends the NWA World Heavyweight Title against Ric Flair in the steel cage main event match. Also, in the news, we talk about Vince McMahon trying to steal Harley away before this big show, WCCW running a Thanksgiving Star Wars event the same day as Starrcade, and much more!ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)KEEP YOUR COFFEE GIMMICK FREE AND FRESH ROASTED TO ORDER WITH COFFEE BRAND COFFEE: https://coffeebrandcoffee.com/?ref=WC7vE0tK (promo code: MAINEVENT for 5% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS

On this exclusive podcast series, Dave LaGreca and Tommy Dreamer bring you “The Legacy of the Territories”, a special look at the history of what built pro wrestling in the US.  On this episode, Dave and Tommy focus on one of the most controversial territories in history:  Georgia Championship Wrestling, and they'll do it with the man responsible for Black Saturday, Gerald Brisco.

In this week's Interview Classic episode from five years ago (10-20-2017), PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents part two of his new interview with Jim Ross followed by a vintage interview from 25 years ago this weekend with Road Warrior Hawk. In the hour-long Ross interview, he discusses how fans have changed over the decades and if that affects his approach to announcing, key historical turning points including what if Bill Watts and not Jim Crockett was Vince McMahon's early primary competitors, could a more sports-like presentation of pro wrestling have taken over the country instead of “sports entertainment” promoted by Vince, the challenge of getting over a babyface in 2017, and more.In the vintage Hawk interview from John Arezzi's “Pro Wrestling Spotlight” radio show in October 1992, Hawk talks about his decision to leave the WWF, compares working for Jim Crockett vs. Vince McMahon, the possibility of a union forming for wrestlers, and more.

The National Tag Team Championship is rebranded and becomes the US Tag Team Championship. So says Jim Crockett and most of the program is used to promote the one night tournament in the Omni to crown the first ever US Tag Team Champs. Also, Wahoo McDaniel is the new National Heavyweight Champion with a win over Tully Blanchard at the Forum in Los Angeles, the Kansas Jayhawks confront Jim Cornette and Big Bubba, Ric Flair and Mike Jackson have a great TV match and the end of the show sees the Four Horsemen confront Dick Murdoch only to have Dusty Rhodes and Magnum TA come to the ring to help him in a pretty good ending. Fall is almost here in 1986 and with it comes excitement and heartbreak, this is JCP in the 80's!

As this episode of World Championship Wrestling took the air, we were less than one month away from the Great American Bash 1986. A perfect time for the friction to be ramped up between Ole Anderson and Dusty Rhodes!

On this very famous episode, the James Gang rides into the studios of TBS and causes quite a stir. Namely: Jim Cornette, who goes on to hijack the show. Also, we will hear from Baby Doll for the first time since she was attacked and see not only the James Gang take on the Midnight Express, but will also see the World Champion Ric Flair in action. Also, two big announcements on this program about what is coming to JCP this summer, one made by Mr. Jim Crockett at the start of the program and one made by a stumbling, bumbling Tony Schiavone at the end.
