Today we jump back 15 years to two back-to-back episodes of the PWTorch Livecast from Sept. 18 and 19, 2011.On the Sept. 18, 2011 episode, PWTorch assistant editor James Caldwell and PWTorch columnist Greg Parks discussed with live callers the just-completed PPV from all angles, with Parks in-person at the PPV to compare notes on the event. They focused on the big three matches - World Title, WWE Title, and Hunter-Punk, including a weird R-Truth moment, the booking of Beth Phoenix-Kelly Kelly, the latest John Cena title victory, whether CM Punk gained or lost anything in the main event, the over-arching issue of WWE devaluing titles and whether the titles, stories, or both are not over, announcing issues, look-ahead to Survivor Series with Rock and Cena, and more. In the previously VIP-exclusive Aftershow, they talked more about Parks's in-person perspective, including a fight in the stands, and much more.Then on the Sept. 19, 2011 episode, Wade was joined by PWTorch columnist Bruce Mitchell. They discussed with live callers questions needing to be answered on Raw coming out of Night of Champions, whether people should wait and see if questions are answered or if there's some concern with WWE storyline direction, Mark Henry's big night, John Cena's latest title victory and why WWE went that direction, historical background on Kofi Kingston's offensive logo, Matt Hardy announcing he's going to rehab, why Steve Austin may or may not return at WrestleMania, and much more. Jason D. From Australia made an appearance late in the show as a caller.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.

Visit our website ā”ļøā”ļøā”ļø https://www.majesticproduction.com/Folks, RAW delivered one of the wildest closing brawls I've seen in a long time, plus a bunch of genuinely good wrestling all the way through. Nobody breaks it down more honestly than I do, believe me.The Bloodline opened the show hunting for the 946 after they kidnapped Solo Sikoa ā Jimmy said this is something they cannot come back from, and Fatu declared it's "all gas, no brakes" tonight after weeks of preaching restraint. When a truck pulled into the parking area, The Usos and Fatu sprinted to the back assuming the 946 had arrived, and jumped a completely innocent stagehand opening the door for... Jaida Parker of NXT, there to meet Adam Pearce. That poor guy got killed for absolutely nothing, folks!Lola Vice beat Roxanne Perez in a good opener with a spinning back fist, and the chaos kept rolling afterward ā Raquel Rodriguez attacked Vice, Sol Ruca ran in with a springboard dropkick, and Perez capped it off by nailing Vice with the Pop Rocks anyway.Oba Femi then delivered a message for The Vision, showing up dressed for business with a contract stamped by Triple H himself. When the crowd booed Bronson Reed's name, Femi got a genuine laugh out of me with "I know, he sucks." He declared himself "the captain now" and called Reed out to sign a Money in the Bank contract. Reed came out, bragged about putting Femi down twice already, signed the deal, and Femi warned him he'd just sealed his fate. Good segment, folks, though WWE really needs to retire that awkward split-screen bit where two or three fans weakly copy Femi's dance in the crowd.Dragon Lee beat Big Cass with a slick jackknife cover after countering a chokeslam attempt ā good match. Iyo Sky beat Lyra Valkyria after Bayley, wearing a "Ben" armband for PAC, distracted Valkyria from the commentary table long enough for Sky to hit a dropkick and finish with a moonsault. Another good match, folks.JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio lost to Je'Von Evans and Penta in a super fun tag match, made even better by Joe Hendry bringing out JD's Funko Pop father to lead the crowd in singing "JD McDonagh is a Funko Pop!" Penta finished Dominik off with a Mexican Destroyer ā but Bron Breakker stormed in from the crowd afterward and speared both Evans and Penta, clearly settling the score after failing to beat Evans clean last week.And then, folks, the main event ā an absolute war between The Bloodline and the 946 that spilled everywhere: through security, into the ring, through the tech area, and all the way into the parking garage. Jacob Fatu and Royce Keys tore into each other with chairs and road cases while the Usos battled Bronco Nima and Lucien Price. This finally answered the question of whether Fatu was secretly in on it with the 946 ā he was NOT, folks, he fought Keys tooth and nail the entire time. Keys tried escaping in Jaida Parker's SUV, Fatu ripped him back out through the window... and then, out of nowhere, a car plowed straight into Jacob Fatu. Out stepped Jaida Parker, dropping the innocent act completely, telling Fatu nobody is safe, before climbing in with Royce Keys and driving off together. Keys screamed "All gas, no brakes!" on the way out. Jaida Parker is officially the newest member of the 946, folks. Tremendous, shocking way to close the show.LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and tell me ā did you see Jaida Parker's turn coming?Watch our full podcast here ā”ļøā”ļøā”ļø anchor.fm/majestic-production

SmackDown comes from Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh on September 28th, 2000. Before Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani get to the show, they read a listener comment that takes about two minutes to accurately diagnose every creative problem WWF is about to run into over the next two years. Tommy cannot disagree with a word of it.Foley opens the show warning Austin to play by his rules or else. Austin responds by hiding in a phone booth backstage and jumping Road Dog in the middle of a hardcore match. Raven gets his first WWF promo and it is immediately buried by a Jericho interruption, dragged into the Taz and Lawler comedy feud, and aimed at entirely the wrong people. Rock and Triple H team up against Angle and Benoit in a main event that works as a match and means nothing as a story. Stephanie pulls a chair away from Rock at the worst possible moment. Angle slam. Three count.Tommy, still occasionally sending in material but increasingly disconnected from the room, explains what is actually happening behind the scenes: not laziness, but too many voices, a soap opera decree from management, Hollywood writers who do not know the roster, and a company so financially successful it has stopped being hungry. The people there are working harder than ever. The output is getting worse.Please support the show, and join our brand new Patreon, featuring watch-alongs for classic matches.

The Monday Night Wars roll into another pivotal week as Wrestling War Zone returns! On episode 165, Chad & JTbreak down WWF Raw is War and WCW Monday Nitro from October 13, 1997, as the landscape of both companies continues to change heading deeper into the fall of 1997. On Raw is War, one of the defining factions of the Attitude Era finally has a name. After weeks of Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Chyna and Rick Rude causing havoc, Shawn Michaels officially christens the group D-Generation X, using Bret Hart's own "degenerate" insults as inspiration. The war between DX and the Hart Foundation heats up as Shawn continues targeting Bret ahead of their WWF Championship showdown at Survivor Series. Meanwhile, Stone Cold Steve Austin takes another major step toward returning to action. Austin signs the WWF's hold-harmless agreement, explains why he helped Owen Hart win the Intercontinental Championship at Badd Blood, and makes it clear that he wants Owen and the title. When the Nation of Domination takes exception, a young Rocky Maiviagets a firsthand taste of the Stone Cold Stunner. The show also features Owen Hart vs. Kama Mustafa, Shawn Michaels battling Flash Funk, Goldust taking on Savio Vega, Brian Christopher vs. Tajiri and more as WWF's transformation toward the Attitude Era becomes increasingly apparent. Over on WCW Monday Nitro, the road to Halloween Havoc 1997 continues with Hollywood Hogan and the nWo furious over Roddy Piper's authority. The biggest in-ring development comes when The Steiner Brothers battle Scott Hall & Syxx for the WCW Tag Team Championships, with Rick & Scott finally capturing the gold. Elsewhere, Eddie Guerrero defends the Cruiserweight Championship against Psychosis, Dean Malenko battles Rey Mysterio Jr., Curt Hennig defends the United States Championship against Diamond Dallas Page, and the undefeated Goldberg continues the earliest stages of his historic rise. Chad & JT break down: ⢠The official naming of D-Generation X ⢠DX's escalating war with Bret Hart and the Hart Foundation ⢠Stone Cold Steve Austin signing the agreement for his return ⢠Austin setting his sights on Owen Hart and the Intercontinental Title ⢠Rocky Maivia meeting the Stone Cold Stunner ⢠The Steiner Brothers finally capturing the WCW Tag Team Titles ⢠Hogan, Piper and the nWo heading toward Halloween Havoc ⢠DDP and Randy Savage's increasingly personal rivalry ⢠Eddie Guerrero vs. Psychosis ⢠The early days of Goldberg's undefeated streak ⢠Which company won the week in the Monday Night Wars DX has a name. Austin is almost back. Goldberg is starting to roll. The Steiners finally have the gold. October 1997 is becoming a transformative month on both sides of the Monday Night Wars. Join Chad & JT as Wrestling War Zone continues its week-by-week journey through one of the greatest eras in professional wrestling history.  WWF Raw is War October 13 1997, WCW Nitro October 13 1997, D Generation X formation, DX 1997, Shawn Michaels 1997, Triple H 1997, Bret Hart 1997, Hart Foundation 1997, Stone Cold Steve Austin 1997, Owen Hart 1997, Rocky Maivia 1997, The Rock 1997, Steiner Brothers 1997, Scott Hall 1997, Syxx 1997, Goldberg 1997, Goldberg undefeated streak, Hollywood Hogan 1997, Roddy Piper 1997, nWo 1997, DDP vs Randy Savage, Halloween Havoc 1997, Eddie Guerrero 1997, WCW Nitro review, WWF Raw review, Monday Night Wars, WWF vs WCW 1997, Wrestling War Zone podcast, Attitude Era, classic wrestling podcast

Stone Cold Austin arrives at the First Union Center, attacks Kevin Kelly in the parking lot, and spends the entire night demanding answers that nobody gives him. Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani review WWF Unforgiven 2000 from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Their verdict: the first pay-per-view since WrestleMania that delivers good, but not great.Raven walks out during the Tazz and Lawler strap match, DDTs Lawler, Tazz wins, and Jim Ross says on commentary that Raven is not even on this roster. The ECW crowd pops accordingly. Jericho and X-Pac have the match of the night, it ends clean, no ref bump, X-Pac taps to the Walls of Jericho. Edge and Christian face the Hardys for the tag titles in a steel cage with convoluted rules, Jeff Hardy gets eliminated three minutes in, re-enters through a door, Lita does a hurricanrana from the top of the cage, and the Hardys win their first tag team championship.Triple H and Kurt Angle in a No DQ match with Foley as special referee is the most anticipated match on the card. It runs short because backstage segments ate the time. Stephanie low blows Angle. Triple H wins. The hosts describe the finish as sweaty. Tommy, who wrote for WWF during this period, observes that the writers' room was expanding, performers were becoming less empowered, and scripted lines were taking over. He ends with: "Boy, am I glad I don't work there anymore."Please support the show, and join our brand new Patreon, featuring watch-alongs for classic matches.

On this episode of Stick to Wrestling, 98.5 The Sports Hub's James āJimmyā Stewart breaks down a wild week in WWE ā starting with Friday's SmackDown from Mexico City, where Sami Zayn dethroned CM Punk in a chaotic Undisputed WWE Championship main event. Johnny Gargano, Candice LeRae, and Kevin Owens all got involved. The finish was messy. The title changed hands. And Zayn is a two-time champion after a nine-day first reign that he has not let anyone forget.Then the focus shifts to Monday's Raw, also from Mexico City, where Roman Reigns defends the World Heavyweight Championship against Penta. The Mexican Destroyer vs. The OTC. A hometown-style crowd. A title match WWE has been building for weeks through a luchador tournament. Stewart unpacks whether this is a showcase or a real threat to Reigns' reign.Plus: the backstage layer. WWE President Nick Khan just called Triple H the best creative mind in all of wrestling and said the company cannot live and die by social media. Publicly, it's a united front. Privately, the question hanging over Stamford is whether business priorities and creative vision are always pulling in the same direction ā and what that means for title pictures that keep flipping, talent getting squeezed into big-city specials, and who actually has the last word when a finish goes off the rails.Hot takes. Boston energy. No kayfabe required.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Monday Night Wars enter an emotional and pivotal new week as Wrestling War Zone returns. On episode 164, JT & Chad break down WWF Raw is War and WCW Monday Nitro from October 6, 1997, just one night after WWF Badd Blood. Raw opens under tragic circumstances as the WWF pays tribute to Brian Pillman, who had passed away just one day earlier. While the ten-bell salute and Jim Ross-narrated tribute video provide a respectful remembrance of Pillman, the WWF also makes the highly controversial decision to conduct a live satellite interview with his grieving widow, Melanie Pillman. Vince McMahon questions Melanie about Brian's cause of death, possible painkiller use, their five children, and how she plans to support her family as a single mother ā an uncomfortable and exploitative segment that became one of the most infamous promotional decisions in WWF history. JT & Chad discuss the disgusting nature of putting Melanie on live television while she was still processing the sudden death of her husband, and contrast it with the otherwise heartfelt tribute WWF presented for Pillman that evening. From there, the fallout from Badd Blood begins immediately. Shawn Michaels, Triple H and Chyna continue pushing boundaries as their alliance moves closer to officially becoming D-Generation X, while tensions with Bret Hart and the Hart Foundation continue to explode. After his shocking debut inside Hell in a Cell, Kane makes his first appearance on Raw, destroying Matt & Jeff Hardy as Paul Bearer promises that his monster is coming for The Undertaker. Meanwhile, Stone Cold Steve Austin continues battling WWF management for the right to return to the ring and makes his demand clear: another shot at Owen Hart and the Intercontinental Championship. Over on Nitro, WCW also pays tribute to Pillman before returning to the escalating war between the nWo and WCW. Hollywood Hogan turns his attention toward Roddy Piper and their upcoming steel cage match at Halloween Havoc, while the looming presence of Sting continues to haunt the nWo. The in-ring action also delivers Eddie Guerrero defending the Cruiserweight Championship against Ultimo Dragon, Curt Hennig battling Chris Benoit for the United States Championship, Booker T taking on Jeff Jarrett, DDP challenging Disco Inferno, and more as WCW builds toward Halloween Havoc. JT & Chad discuss: ⢠WWF and WCW remembering Brian Pillman ⢠The fallout from Badd Blood and the first Hell in a Cell ⢠Kane's first night on Raw and Paul Bearer's warning to The Undertaker ⢠Shawn Michaels, Triple H & Chyna moving closer to D-Generation X ⢠Steve Austin demanding his return match against Owen Hart ⢠Bret Hart vs. Hunter Hearst Helmsley ⢠Hogan, Piper, Sting and the nWo's road to Halloween Havoc ⢠Eddie Guerrero vs. Ultimo Dragon ⢠Curt Hennig vs. Chris Benoit ⢠Which company delivered the stronger show on October 6, 1997 The Attitude Era is beginning to take shape before our eyes while WCW and the nWo remain on top of the wrestling world. Join JT & Chad as Wrestling War Zone continues its week-by-week journey through one of the most fascinating periods in wrestling history.

Kurt Angle ends the main event with an Angle Slam, a sledgehammer, a surprise kiss on Stephanie McMahon, and the line "ask your wife if I kiss like a pansy." Stone Cold cuts a pre-tape from his house in Texas that sells both hosts on Unforgiven more than anything else on the show. Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani recap the September 21, 2000 edition of WWF SmackDown, live from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the final SmackDown before Unforgiven 2000.The opening segment puts the entire 40-man roster around the ring while Foley plays amateur detective. Rock denies running over Austin with a Swedish Chef impression. Triple H defends himself. Angle says maybe it was SA Rios. Xpac accuses Jericho. Undertaker arrives to a big pop. Brawl. The hosts agree this works. The gay panic jokes Triple H keeps making backstage do not.Eddie Guerrero comes out with roses, delivers a speech about how Chyna is a superstar and he is nothing, reveals her Playboy cover for the first time, and gets on one knee. The crowd chants "just say no." She says yes. The hosts discuss whether this storytelling decision serves Chyna or undermines her.Please support the show, and join our brand new Patreon, featuring watch-alongs for classic matches.

Send us Fan MailA Broadway kid from Ontario cold calls a team that doesn't exist yet, helps sell Las Vegas on hockey, and ends up with a Stanley Cup ring. Then he gets a text from Triple H and becomes a WWE SmackDown ring announcer. That's the kind of career path that only makes sense once you hear Mark Shunock, also known as Mark Nash, explain the through-line: preparation, presence, and service.Ā We talk about what it's really like being an in-arena host for the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena, why Vegas āgame presentationā rewired the modern sports experience, and how you bring the same passion night after night when thousands of fans are counting on you. Mark shares a mindset we can't shake: someone in the crowd is seeing this for the first time, and someone else may be seeing it for the last time.Ā We also go beyond the mic. Mark opens up about the Golden Knights' role in helping the city heal after October 1, the behind-the-scenes grind of WWE travel, and how he and his wife built Monday's Dark into a fundraising engine for Las Vegas nonprofits. Finally, we get into The Space Las Vegas and its next chapter: mental health and wellness support for hospitality workers, entertainers, veterans, and first responders, anchored by a simple question, āWho serves those who serve?āĀ If you got value from this conversation, subscribe, share it with a friend who's building something, and leave us a review with your biggest takeaway.
Triple H tells Kurt Angle he just wants to be friends with Stephanie, maybe go shopping for drapes. Kurt has never been more offended. Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani recap the September 18, 2000 edition of WWF Monday Night Raw, live from the Rosemont Horizon in Chicago, Illinois, six days before Unforgiven 2000. Also the last Raw on USA Network.The opening promo ends with Rob, as a gay man, explaining exactly why "shopping for drapes" works and why "batting on the other side of the plate than the rest of us" is the one line that doesn't. Foley books TNA and Trish against Triple H, Angle, and Stephanie, and the hosts are almost surprised it took this long to get here.William Regal makes his WWE debut at the Rosemont, which Tommy calls the single best venue to debut anyone who needs an immediate reaction. Regal sets up a dinner table, demonstrates proper napkin usage, and explains that American parents have clearly failed their children. Jericho interrupts with a fake British accent and a failed tablecloth magic trick. Xpac shows up with nunchucks.Undertaker pins the world champion in a non-title match six days before Unforgiven. The four challengers brawl to end the show. The hosts spend two minutes establishing the correct wrestling terminology for what just happened.Please support the show, and join our brand new Patreon, featuring watch-alongs for classic matches.

Eddie Guerrero shows up at the Playboy Mansion demanding to speak to Hugh Hefner. The bodyguard thinks he means his actual mother. The door gets slammed in his face. He walks away cool. Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani recap the September 14, 2000 edition of WWF SmackDown, live from the America West Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.Foley books three tag matches to force the Unforgiven participants to coexist: Angle and Triple H vs T&A, Kane and Benoit vs the Acolytes, and Rock and Undertaker vs the Dudleys in a tables match. The stipulation is that if you attack your partner before the pay-per-view, your Unforgiven match is cancelled. The hosts count roughly six ways the stipulation gets broken before the night is over.Triple H and Angle team up and spend the entire match trying to outshine each other against T&A. Test takes advantage of the dysfunction, pins Triple H clean, and gets the biggest singles win of his career to that point. T&A are not given a moment to celebrate. The hosts have a lot to say about that.Edge and Christian, meanwhile, introduce the Hardys of the Future. Two elderly men dressed exactly like Matt and Jeff with the jinkos and the cutoff shirts come to the ring. Then Lita's music hits. It is a third old man. Edge says "dude, time travel rules" and he is not wrong.Please support the show, and join our brand new Patreon, featuring watch-alongs for classic matches.

Copeland made it clear that nothing was ever formally proposed, Tony was never actually asked and WWE never officially rejected the idea, but his belief is that AEW would not have been the obstacle. It is especially interesting because Cena and Edge were so important to one another's careers, and a final match could have been more than nostalgia. It could have been one of those rare moments where WWE and AEW put the promotional rivalry aside for something that made sense historically. We look at whether it was ever realistic, what Tony allowing it would have meant for the relationship between the two companies and why one of the most obvious matches for Cena's farewell never got beyond the hypothetical stage. We then turn to AEW, where Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay have made their All In match increasingly personal. The story has become about far more than simply determining who the better wrestler is, with their history stretching back through PWG, New Japan and Ospreay's years of being compared to the standard Omega established before him. That rivalry now intersects with Ospreay's return from neck fusion surgery and his attempt to prove that he has finally surpassed Omega. Their sit-down with Renee Paquette revisited Omega questioning whether Ospreay ever truly replaced him and the lingering issue of Ospreay needing Don Callis' involvement to defeat Kenny at Forbidden Door. Omega then crossed another line by bringing Ospreay's family into the discussion before ultimately putting him through a table with the One-Winged Angel. With Ospreay back in front of his home crowd at Wembley after everything surrounding his surgery and recovery, AEW has turned this into one of the most important matches of his career. Pat McAfee's WWE future also appears increasingly clear. More than a year after stepping away from Raw commentary because of burnout, McAfee has added another major ESPN responsibility by joining Monday Night Countdown throughout the NFL season. His daily show will also broadcast from the site of Monday Night Football each week while he continues working College GameDay on Saturdays. McAfee has now reiterated that he does not intend to return to WWE television following the WrestleMania 42 stipulation where Cody Rhodes defeating Randy Orton meant McAfee would leave WWE programming for good. He even acknowledged that he may have been wrong about Cody after spending the storyline attacking him. Wrestling stipulations can always be undone, but between McAfee's comments and an ESPN schedule that now consumes both Saturdays and Mondays throughout football season, a regular WWE return looks increasingly unlikely. Josh Alexander is also moving closer to an in-ring return just over four months after undergoing knee surgery. Alexander resurfaced on Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling Mayhem and confronted Stu Grayson, teasing the eventual unification of MLP's Canadian Championship. Alexander has remained champion throughout his injury while Grayson became interim champion, giving them a ready-made program whenever Alexander receives clearance. No date has been announced, but MLP's Northern Rising on October 3 in Toronto would be a logical destination if Alexander is ready. The return is particularly meaningful considering Alexander has spoken about how disappointing it was to be unable to fulfill his responsibilities as champion after becoming the inaugural Canadian Champion following Scott D'Amore's relaunch of the promotion. On the WWE injury front, Logan Paul appears to be making progress from the torn triceps that required surgery after Saturday Night's Main Event in May. Paul recently visited Champion Sports Medicine in Birmingham, with Kevin Wilk saying he is looking good following surgery and eager to return to the ring. Paul himself has been more cautious, recently describing himself as still "very much injured" while saying that he is healing quickly and undergoing PRP treatment as part of the rehabilitation process. WWE has kept him involved on television during the recovery, while The Vision continued without him and Bron Breakker stepped into the tag team picture alongside Austin Theory. There is still no confirmed return date, but the latest update suggests Paul is progressing toward eventually getting back in the ring. Jim Johnston also believes the door to a WWE return is essentially closed. Johnston says he would happily compose wrestling themes again but believes Triple H views him as one of Vince McMahon's guys and has little interest in bringing him back. That is Johnston's interpretation rather than something Triple H has publicly confirmed, but it creates an interesting conversation about one of the most criticized aspects of WWE's current presentation. Johnston's greatest strength was creating music that immediately communicated who a wrestler was before they ever reached the ring. WWE does not necessarily need to turn its entire music department back over to Johnston, but completely ignoring someone responsible for so many instantly recognizable themes is worth discussing when modern entrance music continues to struggle to create that same connection. And finally, 31 years ago this week, Cactus Jack and Terry Funk produced one of the defining matches in the history of deathmatch wrestling at IWA Japan's Kawasaki Dream. Nearly 29,000 fans packed Kawasaki Stadium for the King of the Death Match tournament, with Funk and Cactus each surviving two violent matches before meeting in the final: a no-rope barbed-wire, exploding barbed-wire board and exploding-ring time-bomb deathmatch. Both men entered already beaten up, and what followed became the gold standard for the genre. The match worked because Funk and Foley could create emotion underneath all of the violence. The exploding boards delivered the spectacle, but the planned centerpiece of the match nearly became a disaster when the ring explosion at the ten-minute mark dramatically underdelivered. Instead of allowing the match to die with it, Funk and Cactus improvised. They went back to the remaining explosives and brought a ladder into the match, with Cactus eventually coming off it with an elbow before the closing sequence left both men tangled and destroyed in the wire. Cactus crawled over Funk for the pin and was crowned King of the Death Match. That victory meant considerably more than winning a tournament. Terry Funk was already one of wrestling's great legends and had rarely lost in Japan, while Cactus was still establishing what his career would become after leaving WCW. Foley has described the night as Funk effectively passing the torch to him, and the prestige from defeating Terry gave Cactus credibility that followed him long after Kawasaki. The match was messy, dangerous and even technically failed at the moment that was supposed to provide its biggest spectacle, but Funk and Foley turning that failure into something memorable is part of why it has endured. There have been crazier and more dangerous deathmatches since, but when you combine the atmosphere, violence, improvisation, emotional connection between the two men and what the victory ultimately meant for Mick Foley's career, Cactus Jack vs. Terry Funk remains one of the genre's defining matches. Episode 206 brings together one of wrestling's biggest crossover matches that never happened, Omega and Ospreay turning their decade-long rivalry personal before Wembley, Pat McAfee seemingly closing the door on WWE, Josh Alexander moving toward his comeback, Logan Paul continuing his recovery, Jim Johnston questioning whether WWE would ever welcome him back and a look back at the night Terry Funk helped make Cactus Jack the King of the Death Match.
