It's an MOW SUPERSHOW as Harry "Bulldog" Smith, or as NJPW and MLW fans know him, "Davey Boy Smith Jr", joins Mike McGuire to give an exclusive update on his condition following a harrowing emergency surgery which found two different issues which took the former champion out of action. Harry goes in depth about what happened before and during his bout, and gives specifics which contradict some rumoured stories out there.   The Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer is back for his weekly visit, and together, he and Mike discuss: - Bryan Danielson's latest injury in AEW - a string of bad luck, or a sign to hang it up? - Ric Flair - will he be around for ALL of Sting's farewell? - Has the recent Tyson Fury/Francis Ngannou fight and controversial finish struck a blow against competitive boxing's credibility? - Dave's thoughts as to LA Knight's chances in ending Roman Reigns' Run next week at Crown Jewel - Plus some clarity on the Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame ballots, and Dave answers some listener feedback.   PLUS:    Mike sits down with Mitch and Dimitri from the other free Team MOW Podcast show, "The Alternate Commentary Table" and the three discuss their weekend working with Dungeon Wrestling, as well as some of the topics you've brought up on the TEAM MOW Facebook page.   It's a loaded show, thank you for listening!

Who better to have on the show to discuss scary wrestlers for Halloween than the man who wrote a book about maybe the scariest of them all, The Sheik (Edward Farhat)? I'm happy to welcome for the first time on the show, author, historian and podcaster Brian R Solomon (@BrianRSolomon). Brian's biography of the Sheik, Blood and Fire, tells the story of how the boy fascinated by Middle Eastern culture in things like Rudolph Valentino's The Sheik and Michael Powell's The Thief of Bagdad, would provide the basis for his wrestling persona. We talk about his amateur wrestlingcredentials garnered during World War II and how they were part of his initial pro wrestling career, before he eventually became the Madman from the Middle East. We go over most of his career, both in the US, including his promotion Big Time Wrestling in Detroit and his phenomenal success in Japan, first with All Japan and then a decade later in FMW. Since Brian is currently working on a book about Gorilla Monsoon, we talk about the similarities, at least being amateur wrestlers who ended up with “foreign heel” gimmicks. We also have a fascinating conversation about early 20th American attitudes toward “exotic” cultures, like the Middle East and the Far East and how that shaped their gimmicks. We also look at how The Sheik, one of the biggest heels in the 1970s, never portayed the kind of anti-American character we associated with people like the Iron Sheik, Adnan Al-Kaissie or Scandar Akbar. From there, we have a long chat about the candidates for this year's Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame. Since we both have votes, we go over who we think the strongest candidates should be, even if there's no guarantee they'll be elected. We also discuss of the flaws in the system and ways it could be improved. We also have some chat about wrestling's place in popular culture in the 1970s and how the bloody wrestling magazine covers played into the seediness of the sport, before it became more sanitized in the 1980s. Finally, there's some comics chat, where I recommend some current books Brian might enjoy as a lapsed comics reader. This was a great show and I hope to have Brian back on the future to discuss some of the things we only briefly mention. Make sure to check out Brian's books and his podcast, Shut Up and Wrestle, part of the Arcadian-Vanguard network.

Joel and Damon are back as they discuss the beginning of this year's Super Jr Tag League. The guys also discuss Wrestling Observer Hall Of Fame picks , Kevin Knight , the need for NJPW sandpaper , the transition from Kevin Kelly to Walker Stewart, Titan in NJPW, cat run-ins, and answer your dull-ass questions.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/super-j-cast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
