What happens when we throw logic, storytelling, and good taste completely out the window? This week on Book It!, we flip the script and challenge ourselves to create the most horrible, cringe-worthy, absolute dumpster fire of a wrestling pay-per-view ever imagined.From nonsensical match stipulations to baffling booking decisions, washed-up surprise entrants, and main events no one asked for—we're crafting a card so bad, you'll question our sanity and taste in wrestling.
It's WCW Thunder in the year 2000 and you know what that means, it's Vince Russo time! On the July 26th, 2000 episode of WCW Thunder, the show opens with the commissioner The Cat getting attacked by the Jung Dragons. This causes the limo driver, MI Smooth, to get pissed and challenge them to a match later that night. The Filthy Animals take on 3 Count, Big Vito battles Lance Storm for the Hardcore Title, and Judy Bagwell wrestles Positively Kanyon! Also, Billy Kidman plays a VHS tape between Shane Douglas and Torrie Wilson where Shane Douglas couldn't get it up. Plus, Goldberg sits down and shoots on turning heel in WCW, tells everyone how he doesn't like wrestling, and that Kevin Nash was booked to beat him. It's a crazy messed up world in WCW on Thunder with Vince Russo booking the entire catastrophe.⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com

In this episode of Wrestling Soup, Anthony Thomas and Joseph E. Numbers dive into the latest happenings in the wrestling world. They start by discussing a relatively dull week leading up to WrestleMania, the effect of losing their longtime partner, and the apparent decline of AEW's relevance compared to WWE and TNA. They focus on Jordan Grace's botch, the Evolve Show, and the curious case of Swerve Strickland's antics on Vlad TV. The conversation also shifts to explosive promos like the one between Charlotte and Tiffany Stratton, showing the wrestling dynamics at play. The hosts dissect the crowd's reaction, the possible off-script segments, and how these promos build tension. They mention Vince Russo and Stevie Richards' takes on these controversies as well. Additionally, Anthony and Joseph address the latest comments from Chris Jericho about his potential WWE return and his current situation in AEW.
