Continuing on the Road to Wrestlemania XX, we take a detour to one of the most important matches in WWE history. With a dis-content Brock Lesnar quickly on his way to the NFL, and an impassioned Eddie Guerrero the most motivated he's ever been, this is bound to be something truly remarkable. Only thing tho is Hardbore Holly is on this show. CRINGE.
The Crew Is Back At The Table To Talk All Things Sports and Entertainment! Rewinding the clock, let's revisit the Thursday Night SmackDown from March 11, 2004, which was the go-home edition before WrestleMania XX (where it all begins, again...) headlined by Stone Cold Steve Austin invading the show looking for Brock Lesnar and attempting to reclaim his ATV. Plus, Let's preview the weekend ahead that is WrestleMania 40 headlined by Cody Rhodes defends his Undisputed WWE Title against John Cena, Triple Threat between Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Seth Rollins and more!

Its officially Wrestlemania season. We kick off our first Mania show taking it back twenty years ago from Madison Square Garden. This is a star-studded hall of fame class show! The first match kicks off with a young John Cena taking on the United States champion The Big Show. Cena overcame the odds, and he slayed the giant. The Most electrifying man in sports entertainment made his return The Rock and Mick Foley takes on Evolution. Randy Orton Batista & Ric Flair. This is Foleys first match in four years. He didn't win the match, but he put over Randy Orton. The Undertaker was buried alive by his brother Kane at Survivor Series. At the 2004 Royal Rumble we heard the gong, and the mind games begins on Kane. Well after four months the Undertaker makes his return and takes on his brother Kane. The streak continues! In a must watch technical match Eddie Guerrero takes on the Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle. This match is for the WWE Championship. Angle was on point this match bringing out the three I's, but Eddie lied, cheat, and stole a victory to retain his championship. We have a match that all fans were looking forward to but didn't live up to the hype because the IWC realized this was Brocks last match. In this match we get Brock Lesnar taking on Goldberg. A match of this caliber we need a bad ass referee and that referee for this match is Stone Cold Steve Austin. The match started off slow, but it finally picked up and Goldberg got the victory. In your main event for the World Heavyweight Championship, we have Triple H defending his title against Shawn Michaels and Chris Benoit. If you guys can tolerate a Benoit match, check this out. Chris overcame the odds, and it was a great moment for him. You cant erase history but this was memorable. At the end of the match he celebebrated with his best friend Eddie. Wrestlemania was an amazing show, check it out!

The wrestling world stopped in June of 2007 when a tragedy beyond anything the industry had ever seen occurred over a three day period in Fayetteville, GA. The industry had dealt with a considerable number of younger wrestlers die from a variety of causes. Drug abuse, suicide and freak accidents had hit the industry hard. But this was something different. One of the top performers in the industry, Chris Benoit, who had been heralded for years and was a former world champion had killed his family. The impact on the industry continues to this day as it still remains a tragedy that is seldom talked about in the industry. Chris Benoit started wrestling in Canada in the mid-1980′s. He started in the wrestling promotion that was started by the famed Hart family. Bret and Owen Hart's father Stu ran that territory in the area around Calgary. Benoit was known to idolize the “Dynamite Kid (real name Thomas Billington) for his style of wrestling which was really ahead of his time. Benoit was shorter in stature than a lot of wrestlers being under six feet tall and learned to do an intense and brutal style of wrestling that made fans notice him even though he was not as large as many other competitors. Steroids were also rampant in the industry during that decade and Benoit did utilize them to build an incredible amount of muscle. As the years went by Benoit traveled to Japan and eventually wrestled in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) but he became nationally known when he joined World Championship Wrestling. Benoit was brought into the legendary “Four Horseman” stable led by Ric Flair primarily due to his abilities as a top level performer in the ring. Nancy Benoit got into the wrestling business a few years after Chris and started as a valet and manager in WCW in the late 1980′s. She was most well known for playing the villainous manager “Woman”. During this time she was married to wrestler Kevin Sullivan who was several years older than her. During the mid-90′s when Benoit was married, Sullivan booked a wrestling angle with Benoit where in storyline he started an affair with Nancy. But that on-screed romance developed into a real life romance and the two eventually divorced their respective spouses and got together as a couple. Which is ironic being that Nancy Benoit's ex-husband Sullivan booked that original wrestling angle. Nancy Benoit eventually left wrestling but Chris continued to make progress in his career. He eventually won a world title in WCW then left for the WWE (then WWF) in 2000. Around that time Nancy and Chris got married and had their son Daniel. Chris' career continue to ascend during his time in WWE as he eventually won the world title in the main event of Wrestlemania XX. June 2007 It was the weekend going into the Monday Night Raw that was slated for June 25th, 2007 and Benoit was slated to appear. But no one had heard from Benoit in the days leading up to the event and missing performance dates was very out of character for him. Wrestler Chavo Guerrero spoke about cryptic voicemails and text messages he received from Benoit and reported it to WWE management. This was spoken about on the “Dark Side Of The Ring” documentary produced by Vice TV. Eventually police went to the Benoit home at the request from WWE to conduct a welfare check. Investigators in Fayetville, GA found the bodies of Benoit, his wife Nancy and his son Daniel. Nancy Benoit was killed by asphyxiation and her hands and feet were bound. His son appeared to have been sedated and was also killed by asphyxiation. Then Benoit eventually took his own life by hanging himself on a weight machine. Prior to police determining the cause of death and who was responsible WWE was put in a position on how to deal with the news publicly because Raw was about to go live. The “Dark Side Of The Ring” documentary shows Vince McMahon gathered all the performers together to break the horrific news to them. The show was essentially cancelled and turned into a tribute to Chris Benoit and his family. But as the hours went by later in the evening WWE learned the true horror of what had happened in the Georgia home and responded the next night. The following night WWE had the broadcast of their ECW show and at the beginning of the show McMahon gave a statement: “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Last night on Monday Night Raw, the WWE presented a special tribute show, recognizing the career of Chris Benoit. However, now some 26 hours later, the facts of this horrific tragedy are now apparent. Therefore, other than my comments, there will be no mention of Mr. Benoit's name tonight. On the contrary, tonight's show will be dedicated to everyone who has been affected by this terrible incident. This evening marks the first step of the healing process. Tonight, WWE performers will do what they do better than anyone else in the world: entertain you.” McMahon provided a similar statement later in the week on their episode of Smackdown. That was the last time WWE ever mentioned Chris Benoit. The company went to great lengths to erase him from all WWE material. While there is still Benoit matches in their archives that can be found on Peacock, there has been no content produced by WWE since 2007 where Benoit is included. Nancy Benoit's sister Sandra Toffoloni has spoken in depth about her thoughts on the crime and what exactly happened on the “Talk Is Jericho” podcast hosted by wrestling star Chris Jericho who was a longtime friend of Benoit. The public demands answers. No other scandal in the history of professional wrestling made mainstream headlines like the Benoit tragedy. Cable news networks led a large number of shows for days analyzing the murder-suicide. A lot of that had to do with beliefs that steroids may have played a role in the tragedy. Benoit's autopsy report showed he had a considerably high testosterone level in his body at the time of death leading many to speculate that “roid rage” may have caused the murders. Further investigation showed that he had been prescribed testosterone by his doctor. Many of those medications along with other prescription drugs were found in the home. It was later determined the testosterone was prescribed to supplement his levels due to years of past steroid use.
We're celebrating the 20 year anniversary of a milestone moment in Alex and Travis's friendship on this month's BACK FROM THE DEAD! Join our cohosts and wrestling buddies as they reminisce about Alex's 18th Birthday gift - an all-expenses paid trip for these best friends to WrestleMania XX! It's not only one of the greatest experiences of our lives as wrestling fans, and not only one of the most important matches of The Undertaker's career, but this just so happened to be a historic episode for our podcast as we hit the 100 episode mark. We had to get together to record episode 100 live, and Alex even invited his parents on to question their sanity in sending a couple of high school kids from a small town in Georgia all the way to New York City. Enjoy this trip back in our time-traveling hearse and be sure to join us March 1st for our next brand new episode covering the greatest "What If?" in The Undertaker's history: The Undertaker vs. Sting!
THE CHRIS BENOIT MURDER SUICIDE CASE Another thing that could have had weight in the story and in this tragic ending was the fact that Chris's brain was totally out of shape, had cet after having had constant traumas in his head. Literally, Chris's brain was the same as an 85-year-old elder with Alzheimer. The fault of this is the damn ambition and the little care that the directors of the WWE had for their fighters. Certainly, every fight was a performance and they had a script, but the acrobatics and the use of metal chairs to hit each other put their health and integrity at risk. Eerie Twist In Wrestler's Murder-Suicide Investigators are looking into who altered pro wrestler Chris Benoit's Wikipedia entry to mention his wife's death hours before authorities discovered the bodies of the couple and their 7-year-old son. Benoit's Wikipedia entry was altered early Monday to say that the wrestler had missed a match two days earlier because of his wife's death. A Wikipedia official, Cary Bass, said Thursday that the entry was made by someone using an Internet protocol address registered in Stamford, Conn., where World Wrestling Entertainment is based. An IP address, a unique series of numbers carried by every machine connected to the Internet, does not necessarily have to be broadcast from where it is registered. The bodies were found in Benoit's home in suburban Atlanta, and it's not known where the posting was sent from, Bass said. Benoit allegedly strangled his wife and son during the weekend, placing Bibles next to their bodies, before allegedly hanging himself on the cable of a weight-machine in his home, police said. No motive was offered for the killings, which were discovered Monday. Over a two-day period from June 22 to June 24, 2007, Chris Benoit, a 40-year-old Canadian professional wrestler employed by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), murdered his wife Nancy and their seven-year-old son, Daniel, before hanging himself at their residence in Fayetteville, Georgia, United States. ------------------------------------------------------------------ The wrestling world stopped in June of 2007 when a tragedy beyond anything the industry had ever seen occurred over a three day period in Fayetteville, GA.

The one where it all begins...again, and where Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero stood tall at the end of the night, both as World Champions in WWE- we take on the emotion, and difficulty watching on the show, plus our assessment of their respective matches, with Benoit battling Triple H and Shawn Michaels in a triple threat match, and Eddie Guerrero taking on Kurt Angle. Additionally, The Undertaker returns as the dead man once again, Chris Jericho and Christian fight to resolve their love triangle issues, and The Rock N Sock Connection take on Evolution in a 2 on3 handicap match. The Random Wrestling Review is brought to you this time by Old Man, Tom & Tinky.
On this episode of The Lawcast our hosts revist Wrestlemania XX.
OHHHH YESSSSSSSS! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as they pay tribute to the one and only William Moody - better known to us all as Paul Bearer - on the 10 year anniversary of his passing. After our monthly Undertaker Sightings segment (covering his Super Bowl commercial and more), we dive deep into the full career of the Father Of Destruction. We talk about William Moody's background as a real-life mortician to his early days in the wrestling business as Percy Pringle III and his murderer's row of clients and then of course to the call that changed his life to join up with The Undertaker in 1991. We discuss Taker and Bearer's instant and unbreakable connection, how the pair effortlessly evolved from heels to babyfaces, Bearer's command of a character that could have gone off the rails, the heel turn at SummerSlam 1996 that changed everything, Bearer selling the Kane storyline and turning it into a masterpiece, and so much more. We'll also cover his brief stint in TNA, the good (WrestleMania XX) and the bad (getting kidnapped by Edge) of his returns to WWE throughout the 2000s (including some untelevised ones), his run with his final protege LA Knight on the independent scene, and the ways WWE and The Undertaker have honored him since his untimely passing. There never was and never will be another quite like Paul Bearer, and we hope you enjoy our tribute to one of our favorite pro wrestling characters of all time. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy!

On this episode of Grilling JR, LISTEN as JR and Conrad revisit WrestleMania 20, which took place on March 14th, 2004 “where it all began” at Madison Square Garden.

Also, the infamous Brock Lesnar vs. Goldberg match with Stone Cold as special guest referee, Undertaker vs. Kane, Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle for the WWE Championship, and so much more on this LOADED WrestleMania card!

Continuing on the Road to Wrestlemania XX, we take a detour to one of the most important matches in WWE history. With a dis-content Brock Lesnar quickly on his way to the NFL, and an impassioned Eddie Guerrero the most motivated he's ever been, this is bound to be something truly remarkable. Only thing tho is Hardbore Holly is on this show. CRINGE. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ruthlesspod/support
