On this episode, I take a look at the Hall of Fame case for former WWF Champion and one of the craziest characters in pro wrestling history - The Iron Sheik. I look at the qualifications for the Iron Sheik and the Observer Hall of Fame plus my personal story of booking the Iron Sheik once. Then I look back to the mid-1930s to Madison Square Garden and the return of Jim Londos, and a mid-1990s look at the Tokyo Dome and the BVD Martial Arts tournament featuring Antonio Inoki and... Sting! Patreons get a special extended cut of the show!
This week on the show we obviously kick things off with the Cena heel turn. That was insane. From there we dip our toes into some history before covering the 3/1/01 Smackdown and the No Way Out PPV that preceded it. We have a new WWF Champion in The Rock and are embarking on the road to WrestleMania X7. Before that happens, there is another major event on the horizon... Then from there we just talked about a bunch of random topics. Enjoy!
February 5th, 1988 is one of the most historic shows in the Golden Era of the WWF. This was the night Hulk Hogan was defending the WWF title against Andre The Giant. At the end of the match Hulk Hogan kicked out, but the ref counted to 3 anyway. There was chaos in the ring as we saw 2 of the same referees. THERE WERE 2 DAVE HEBNERS! “HOW MUCH DID THE PLASTIC SURGERY COST?” screamed Hulk Hogan! We wouldn't find out why there were 2 Dave Hebners, on that night, but we did know that Andre The Giant was the new WWF Champion. After winning, he immediately gave the belt to The Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase. Also, Macho Man Randy Savage defended his WWF Intercontinental Title against the Honky Tonk Man and a short match between The Hart Foundation and Strike Force gets cut off as the show ends.

Fall out from WWF Survivor Series 1998 takes place on the November 16th, 1998 edition of WWF Monday Night RAW. The Rock is the new WWF Champion after becoming Corporate and screwing over Stone Cold and Mankind at the PPV. While Shane McMahon was tricking everyone to think he was on Stone Cold's side he booked a match between Stone Cold and The Rock a few weeks ago for the WWF Championship. So the main event was signed in a legally binding contract for The Rock vs Stone Cold Steve Austin! Also, Hawk of the Road Warriors, is battling personal demons. He climbs up the Titantron during a match and claims he is going to end it all. Droz then climbs up the side of the truss and tries to help him. Or did he push him off? You be the judge of that.

Welcome back to The Lawcast! This time our hosts begin a season covering the scandalous time period of the early 1990s in the WWF with Summerslam 1990.Ultimate Warrior is the new WWF Champion, but do they really have faith in him? He defends against Rick Rude in a Steel Cage Match. Meanwhile Hulk Hogan faces on of his greatest challenges against Earthquake in the co-main event.Plus we discuss Crown Jewel, Lashley coming to AEW, and New Japan announcing the Wrestlekingdom main event.
The Big Five Project returns to bring 1994 to an end as the guys cover Survivor Series '94. As 1994 came to an end, the winds of change continued to sweep through the WWF and that was highly evident on a November evening in San Antonio. A better event than the year before, Survivor Series '94 featured the break-up of Shawn Michaels and Diesel, a feud that would extend all the way to WrestleMania XI. Meanwhile, Survivor Series '94 would see a shocking WWF Championship title change as Bob Backlund, with a huge assist from Owen Hart, would dethrone Bret "Hitman" Hart in an unforgettable, emotionally charged, and highly controversial match. Thanks to Bret's mother, Mr. Backlund became the oldest WWF Champion in history (at the time) and Owen Hart showed us all just how low he would stoop to screw his brother over. Add in some solid Survivor Series matches, a special appearance by Chuck Norris, and The Undertaker exacting a measure of revenge against Yokozuna and we are left with a very solid PPV to close out 1994! We have all the details for you here, on another epic installment of the Big Five Project.About the Chairshot Radio NetworkCreated in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in wrestling and wrestling crossover podcasts, including POD is WAR, Women's Wrestling Talk, Chairshot Radio daily editions, The #Miranda Show, Badlands' Wrestling Mount Rushmores, The Outsider's Edge, DWI Podcast, Bandwagon Nerds, the Greg DeMarco Show, 3 Man Weave, Five Rounds, Turnbuckle Talk, The Reaction, Attitude Of Aggression, and more!

Odian, a dedicated Spider-Man fan (make sure you check out one of our older episodes where he and I discuss the Tobey Maguire Trilogy: https://generations.buzzsprout.com/2024899/episodes/14282630-tobey-maguire-s-spider-man-part1-with-great-power), was eager to dive into the deep cuts of the "Maximum Carnage" storyline, exploring how the game translated the intense narrative and character dynamics of the comics into a thrilling beat 'em up experience.During our discussion, we highlight a particular aspect that both fascinated and frustrated gamers: the game's notorious difficulty. "Maximum Carnage" is known for its punishing challenges, and despite numerous attempts, neither Odian nor I have ever managed to beat the game. This difficulty level adds a layer of infamous prestige to our memories and experiences with the game.We also discuss how both the Genesis and SNES versions provided a nearly identical gameplay experience—a rarity for titles released across these two platforms at the time. This consistency allowed players on both systems to equally enjoy the rich, comic book-inspired graphics and the dynamic, action-packed gameplay.As we wrap up the episode, Odian shares insights into the game's adherence to the comic series and takes a playful guess at who the WWF Champion was in September 1994, when "Maximum Carnage" was released. Join us for this special episode as we revisit one of the most challenging and iconic Spider-Man games of the 90s.Support the showWe've got merch!Check out the site for some awesome Gen 'S' swag :)

The Big Five Project returns to crown a new King of the Ring. In 1994, on the heels of WrestleMania X, Owen Hart found himself still in the shadow of his brother, Bret "The Hitman" Hart. Although he beat Bret at WrestleMania, it was the Hitman who left as the WWF Champion. On this night, in Baltimore, Maryland, Owen took a major step in carving his own identity as he won three matches to emerge as the King of the Ring for 1994! Meanwhile, brother Bret had his hands full with a title defense against the reigning Intercontinental Champion, Diesel. Throw in a tag title defense by The Headshrinkers and a main event featuring two guys over the age of 40, and this first PPV of the "New Generation" era was one to remember. So, we invite you to join us for a tremendous recap of King of the Ring '94 and the birth of the King of Harts!About the Chairshot Radio NetworkCreated in 2017, the Chairshot Radio Network presents you with the best in wrestling and wrestling crossover podcasts, including POD is WAR, Women's Wrestling Talk, Chairshot Radio daily editions, The #Miranda Show, Badlands' Wrestling Mount Rushmores, The Outsider's Edge, DWI Podcast, Bandwagon Nerds, the Greg DeMarco Show, 3 Man Weave, Five Rounds, Turnbuckle Talk, The Reaction, Attitude Of Aggression, and more!

Just 6 days after Survivor Series 1991, we've got a shortened show titled This Tuesday in Texas. The Undertaker was only 1 year into his WWF run when he defeated the goose that laid the golden eggs, Hulk Hogan, to become WWF Champion on Taker's 1 year anniversary (with the help of Ric Flair). Now, he's the defending champion against The Hulkster. "Macho Man" Randy Savage also looks for revenge on the evil snake man, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, who had been making Savage and Miss Elizabeth's lives a living Hell for months, including crashing their wedding reception and having a cobra bite Macho Man. Bret Hart also takes on Skinner, the British Bulldog does battle with the Warlord, and Repo Man teams with Ted DiBiase against Virgil and El Matador to continue "The Million Dollar Man's" feud with his former "servant." This show took place on December 3, 1991, at the Freeman Coliseum in San Antonio, Texas. The event was an attempt by the WWF to establish Tuesday as a secondary pay-per-view night. Lukewarm reaction and a disappointing 1.0 buyrate rendered the experiment a failure, and the company shelved its plans until October 2004, when it held Taboo Tuesday. linktr.ee/MainEventMarks Learn more about your ad choices.

Yes, we're going back to one of the worst years in professional wrestling history. The good news is this "New Generation" show is actually somewhat fondly remembered by wrestling historians. Diesel has been the WWF Champion for a loooong time and business has been way down. So, now what? We're going back to Bret Hart! There are also some pretty weird match-ups in the Survivor Series elimination matches, but it makes for some interesting situations. Women from All Japan Women's Wrestling are also imported for a 4-on-4 match that was...tolerable. Troy is flying solo through the majority of this one, but "The Main Event Collector" Greg is joining him for the actual review of the event itself. In the news, everything is going to crap for WWF, WCW, ECW, and the USA indies (financially-wise). WCW and WWF and doing battle in the ratings as Nitro is trying to heat itself up and fans are turning on Hulk Hogan. This and much more on the show!

Vince McMahon won the 1999 Royal Rumble but he will not be facing the WWF Champion at WrestleMania. We find out who's going to challenge for the title this week on Raw. On Nitro Bret Hart cuts his famous El Dandy Promo while Chuck Norris and Jean Claude Van Damme get in the ring to celebrate with Bill Goldberg.

The boys are continuing their journey through their big stretch project: ranking every single WWE World Title change ever!
