On this episode of What Happened When, the voice of our childhood Tony Schiavone and host Conrad Thompson take us back 40 years for a true NWA/Jim Crockett Promotions classic. A major shift is underway as the National Tag Team Championships are officially rebranded into the United States Tag Team Championships, with Jim Crockett Promotions devoting much of the program to hyping a one-night tournament at the Omni to crown the very first champions. There's no shortage of action and intrigue elsewhere on the card. Wahoo McDaniel captures the National Heavyweight Championship by defeating Tully Blanchard at the Forum in Los Angeles. The Kansas Jayhawks confront Jim Cornette and Big Bubba, Ric Flair delivers a standout TV match against Mike Jackson, and the show closes with chaos as The Four Horsemen confront Dick Murdoch only for Dusty Rhodes and Magnum T.A. to hit the ring for a thrilling finish. Fall is nearly here in 1986, and with it comes excitement, tension, and heartbreak. This is Jim Crockett Promotions in the '80s at its absolute finest—don't miss this nostalgic deep dive on What Happened When.

On this special REMIX episode of What Happened When, Tony Schiavone and Conrad Thompson sit down together to watch WWF Monday Night RAW from April 27, 1998—and for Tony, it's a first-time viewing of one of the most infamous moments of the Monday Night War. The focus? D-Generation X and their audacious, real-world invasion of World Championship Wrestling. As the episode unfolds, Tony reacts in real time to seeing Triple H, X-Pac, and the New Age Outlaws roll up to WCW's doorstep, cameras rolling, lines blurring between storyline and reality. From the perspective of a man who was insideWCW when it happened, Tony offers candid, unfiltered insight into what the locker room likely thought, how management viewed the stunt, and why this moment symbolized WWF's growing confidence in 1998. Conrad guides the conversation with context—breaking down where WWF stood creatively, why this episode of Monday Night Raw felt so dangerous and unpredictable, and how DX's fourth-wall-breaking antics represented a turning point in the war for wrestling fans' attention. Expect laughs, disbelief, and plenty of "I can't believe they did that" moments as Tony processes the invasion not as a rival executive, but as a fan watching history unfold. The duo also discusses how this single segment changed perceptions, raised the stakes, and helped redefine what competition looked like in professional wrestling. It's a rare, behind-the-curtain look at the DX invasion—told by the voice of WCW himself—on an episode that proves just how wild, bold, and real the Monday Night Wars had become.

Send us a textOn Sunday, November 15, 2025, I woke up to the news that legendary Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling Host Bob Caudle had died , peacefully, in his sleep at the age of 95. I can't explain it but this one was like losing a lifelong friend because in a way it was. Bob Caudle's voice is as familiar to me as any on Earth, he has been a fixture in our home for my entire lifetime, each Saturday for my entire childhood straight through to early adulthood I heard him say "Welcome Fans to another exciting hour of Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling." He has stayed a fixture through my DVD collection and on "YouTube" whenever I have wanted to travel back in time to “the good old days” of Professional Wrestling. I am pretty sure I am not alone. Bob Caudle was like that great old recliner, comfortable and steady, that you don't pay that much attention to until it's gone. Bob Caudle was never the star, never tried to out shine the wrestlers, never made himself the story, but was always there presiding over all the chaos every Saturday when we fans tuned in. He always asked the questions we wanted to ask and said exactly what all of us wanted to say as all the insanity erupted. Bob Caudle was there steady as a rock. In the end, this very normal “old white guy in brown shoes” was , in fact, as big a star with all of us fans as the stars he covered, and in the eyes of us wrestling fans of Jim Crockett Promotions, there was no one more beloved, than this often befuddled host of the greatest territorial wrestling show in the history of wrestling. It has been like a part of all our collective childhoods vanished Sunday. But what a wild, fun ride it was, and I hope I speak for all of us fans of the Wrestling Network, Bob Caudle, you will be missed, and we will cherish your memory forever, for Bob Caudle provided the soundtrack of our childhood. So, to Mr. Caudle , here is our tribute to you, rest in peace, and “until next time so long for now.” (No copyright claimed nor intended for the clips used in this tribute to Bob Caudle. This is for historical use only. )  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

On this episode of What Happened When, Tony pays tribute to one of the greats, Bob Caudle.

#wcw #prowrestling #wweThis week on the show, we sit down for a rare and honest conversation with one-half of one of wrestling's most talked-about teams from the late 1980s The Ding Dongs. From humble beginnings to the bright lights of WCW, our guest, Richard Sartain opens up about his journey through the world of professional wrestling forming the tag team Rock n Roll Rebels with Greg Evans in Deep South Wrestling.We discuss how WCW discovered the duo, the moment they learned about the now-infamous Ding Dongs gimmick, and whether they knew they were facing an uphill battle with southern wrestling crowds. You'll hear stories about Jim Herd's involvement, working with Tony Schiavone, and what it felt like to debut on national TV at Clash of the Champions against George South and Cougar Jay.The conversation dives deep into the backstage atmosphere from facing teams like The State Patrol, Rip Morgan & Jack Victory, and The Skyscrapers, to teaming with stars like Scott Hall, Trent Knight, and The Italian Stallion, We also explore what came next: the eventual end of the Ding Dongs, possible plans for a post-mask push, and what led to both men's exit from WCW.Now, decades later, we reflect on how the Ding Dongs' short-lived run became one of wrestling's most enduring talking points. Our guest shares his thoughts on the modern wrestling scene, his memories of working with names like Mike Rotunda, Brian Pillman, and The Great Muta, and his message to fans who still remember the team that dared to be different

Nevermore: The Raven Effect examines the pivotal shift in wrestling history, through the eyes of Raven/Scott Levy, a brilliant, inventive, complicated and controversial performer. To those in the know, the ECW was an extreme and hazardous wrestling circuit that featured bloody matches, often involved real weapons, and bonkers story angles. Raven was instrumental in setting the no-holds-barred tone of ECW and influencing the direction of wrestling culture in the process. Now approaching sixty, Nevermore is a look back at an era when an extreme personality thrived in an extreme environment - the only question is, how did he live to tell the tale?

This week we really made our own fun - Dynamite may not have been our favorite but we can ALWAYS improve things with the power of our imaginations! We do dutifully talk about MJF's takesy-backsies and whether or not it's working; about Mox's newfound joy in performance and in Toon Town; about whether Will Ospreay is going to die at Forbidden Door; and honestly? We might be back on the Cope & Christian train. Let them cook, we say tentatively? If you scrape off the burned bits it might still be edible under there! And then of course we explore topics like: where do men get vests in various colors? Which muppets came from space? And we pitch what would frankly be the best Saturday morning cartoon of all time.
