In the Summer of 1980, Dusty Rhodes wanted Ole Anderson to be his partner in a Tag Team match against the Assassins. Ole had been on the face side for over a year at this point, but what transpired in a cage match at the Omni set up an amazing story of a year long plot that included the likes of Stan Hansen, Ivan Koloff, Gene Anderson, Tommy Rich, Tony Atlas and more as Ole earned the trust of many and lost the trust of his fellow heels to ultimately take down Dusty Rhodes. This angle had repercussions that went on for the next 7 years and you could even say it had a hand in creating the Four Horseman in 1985. Its Ole Andersons heel turn on Dusty Rhodes from GCW in the Summer of 1980! Give it a listen!

Welcome to Card Foundation Podcast Episode 191! This week, we discuss and review the new Panini WWE Photogenic hobby box. Plus, we talk the Vince McMahon documentary, Bad Blood, Tony Atlas rookie cards, and so much more!

This week's episode brought to you by Indy Wrestling US, Slice on Broadway, Sidekick Media Services and listeners like you at www.Patreon.com/WrestlingMayhemShow Guests “Some Guy Named John” and Joe Murphy from Buddies Inc. are on their “book tour” promoting their new book, The Empty Tag Rope, an 880 Wrestling mystery inspired by true events. Joe Murphy is portrayed as the detective and John as the writer of the novel. • Vince McMahon Documentary: The crew discussed the much-talked-about Mr. McMahon documentary on Netflix. It was noted for being made by the same creators as Tiger King. The documentary started with a different tone but was altered after the allegations against Vince McMahon emerged in 2021. It was described as not being made for hardcore wrestling fans but rather for the general Netflix audience. Highlights include clips from the Attitude Era, interviews with Tony Atlas, and the mention of controversial moments, including Stephanie McMahon's comments regarding Mike Tyson and the allegations against Vince. The hosts expressed mixed reactions, including dissatisfaction with how the documentary handled sensitive topics like concussions and CTE. • Tony Atlas Cameo: Tony Atlas' involvement in the documentary was humorously highlighted as both strange and memorable, particularly his sleeveless appearance and blunt commentary. • Vince McMahon's History and Legacy: Discussions covered Vince McMahon's complicated legacy, including his attitude toward concussions, his relationship with Shane McMahon, and his father. The conversation touched on controversial decisions Vince has made throughout his career and his handling of issues like the XFL and UFC potential purchase years ago. • AEW and WWE Parallels: The episode featured comparisons between AEW and WWE, including Shane McMahon's involvement in the wrestling business and potential rumors of him joining AEW. The group commented on the parallels between the McMahon family dynamic and how it resonates with current wrestling storylines. • CM Punk and Drew McIntyre Storyline: Anticipation for the upcoming Hell in a Cell match between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre at the Bad Blood event was discussed. The story was praised for not needing a title to be engaging, with the bracelet representing deeper symbolism within their feud. • Live Streaming and WWE's Media Strategy: There was commentary on WWE's evolving media strategy, including discussions around streaming deals, live content's importance, and their partnership with Netflix. • What We Learned Segment: • Stone Cold Steve Austin CTE Denial: The segment focused on how Stone Cold Steve Austin's denial of CTE in the documentary was jarring, especially considering the numerous clips of wrestlers, including Austin himself, taking dangerous head bumps during the same segment. • Vince McMahon's Mustache: There was also lighthearted commentary about Vince McMahon's controversial pencil mustache, comparing it to archetypes like Howard Hughes and Walt Disney.

From our very first interview, we revisit Mr. USA Tony Atlas' reflections on growing up poor, trying to control his rage, and additional traumatic memories of the killing of Bruiser Brody. Disclaimer: José González was acquitted for the murder of Bruiser Brody on the basis of self-defense. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Iron Sheik was author Brad Balukjian's favorite wrestler as a kid growing up in the 80s, and directly inspired his new book, “The Six Pack: On The Road in Search of Wrestlemania.” Brad took a road trip to find and meet 6 of the Sheik's wrestling contemporaries including Hulk Hogan, Tony Atlas, Sgt. Slaughter, Jose Luis Rivera, Tito Santana, and Demolition Ax aka Bill Eadie. Brad shares the stories he discovered and learned about each including The Sheik being told to break Hulk Hogan's leg, the original plane ride from hell with Jimmy Snuka, Tony Atlas' initiation into pro wrestling in the South, who sabotaged Jose Luis Rivera's promised push, and the real story behind Sgt. Slaughter's military service! Brad also dug into the early days of the WWF expansion under Vince and Linda McMahon, and found records of early payouts to talent, live show grosses, and original contracts. Plus, Brad talked to then-WWF CFO Bob McMullan and Jim Troy, Vince's right-hand man at the time, about what it was like working for Vince. Purchase “The Six Pack”: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/brad-balukjian/the-six-pack/9780306831553/?lens=hachette-booksFor more info on Brad & “The Six Pack”: thebradpack.comFollow Brad Balukjian on X and Instagram: @bradpackbooks  Thanks to our sponsors!Pretty Litter: Go to https://prettylitter.com/jericho & use code JERICHO to get 20% off your first order.Factor: Go to https://factormeals.com/TIJ50 & use code TIJ50 to get 50% off your first month, plus 20% off your next month.American Home Shield: Go to https://AHS.com/JERICHO to save 20% off any plan.Rosetta Stone – Go to https://RosettaStone.com/JERICHO to get 50% off unlimited access STAY CONNECTED:TikTok: @ChrisJerichoInstagram: @talkisjericho @chrisjerichofozzy Twitter: @TalkIsJericho @IAmJerichoYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisJerichoFozzyWebsite: https://www.webisjericho.com/

On this episode of What Happened When, Tony and Conrad sit back and "enjoy" the 3 hour debut episode of WCW Thunder. Tony is salty right off the get go as he's reminded of the show being a glorified clip show. Plus, the fact that he and the rest of the commentary team continues to try and convince the audience that Nick Patrick counted fast on Sting's win at Starrcade 1997. Conrad and Tony also for the first time reads and responds to YouTube comments, have a heated discussion about bidets, and enjoy a good laugh watching Tony Atlas get stomped on.
