Were you alive in 1985?  If you were we bet you won't believe what went down in 1985!  In this episode we discuss the major events that happened in and around Wrestlemania 1.  For those of you who weren't around, this is an episode that will likely blow your mind. The match this week comes on the heels of the death of the Iron Sheik and it features his tag team championship win alongside his longtime partner Nikolai Volkoff.  Although most people remember these two for their singing of the Russian National Anthem and the Sheik's mic work immediately after Volkoff sang, these two were actually really sound workers and this match is a must watch for any true wrestling fan. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sixmantagpodcast/support

NEW DUTCH MANTELL T SHIRTS OUT NOW: https://my-store-d8f220.creator-spring.com/ "Dirty" Dutch Mantell is back and after a news heavy week, Dutch is not short of subjects to discuss.  Stan Lane's paternity issues, Ava Raine's ring work issues and Dutch's memories of the late Iron Sheik.  Sheiky Baby's background, his intense Persian Club workouts, and drawing as one of the biggest heels to ever step into the squared circle. Promoter's devious tactics, Nikolai Volkoff and the cheapest wrestlers in history are also part of the discussion this week.  Then, fresh off another episode of Drak Side of the Ring, Dutch talks about Magnum TA.  From getting ripped off by Buzz Sawyer, being favorite for the NWA World Heavyweight Title and his devastating car wreck, Dutch gives his thoughts on it all.
