David Flair discussing his blonde girlfriend with long legs. Also on this Thunder the Goldberg Monster Truck causes more damage and maybe gets some lines? Terry Funk punching people with Frozen Chicken! This episode of Thunder has it all, so relax and listen as Scott and Logan try to find some good things about this show.

Thanks as always Joe for a super-fun nerd-out!In my 'World of Chris-Things' intro monologue I talk starting to map out 2026 & a mind-blowingly great CULT-LUCHA classic Lucha Libre monster movie night event debut this past Sunday at Netherworld with my tag-team partner in crime, Trash Video's Andrew Leavold.

The Shining Wizards Wrestling Podcast kicks off Year 15 with a jam packed show. The crew catches up after Turkey day & then dives right into the disappointment that was Survivor Series War Games. From the Weapons in the cage to Yeeting in the middle of the match, the boys cover it all. They touch on the John Cena retirement tour & wonder if WWE announcing it as his final tour hurt. Dabble in the Last Time is Now Tournament & discuss ways to prevent fans from stalking/harassing talent outside of the arena. Back from break they talk a little bit about Bret Hart & Ric Flair, AEW, ROH Final Battle, play some games & of course cover our homework. We go back to ECW November to Remember 1995 for the main event. Terry Funk & Tommy Dreamer vs Raven & Cactus Jack. Does the streak continue? Do we get a thumbs down?
