This week we're talking about the October 16 1993 episode of WWF Superstars and the October 18, 1993 episode of Monday Night Raw. We met Jeff Jarrett and get some Macho Man Crush drama.

In this rewind edition of the SCR Session, Jamie is joined by Richard Sparkes a former designer and writer at at the time the only person looking after the WWF/WWE line. He talks about his time designing stickers and cards, the perks of the role as well as the design process etc

This week we're talking about the October 7 1993 episode of Superstars and the October 9 1993 episode of Monday Night Raw. We have a lot of tag teams to talk about, some Doink business, Jerry the King Lawler things, Ludwig Borga confronts Lex Luger, and tension stirs between Macho Man and Crush. 

We're talking about the impending Doink face turn, Crush and Macho Man still can't get along, the Battle Royale to determine the Intercontinental Championship match where Razor Ramon and Rick Martel win and will face each other next week, and so many Heavenly Bodies matches. We go off on what was cringy enough to be embarrassed about back in 1993 if our parents caught us watching wrestling, and the thin blurry line separating carnie culture from wrestling culture.

Pro-wrestling really had a chokehold on our imaginations in the ‘90s. Whether our brains were being bodyslammed by WWF (WWE) or beat down by WCW, we loved every choreographed minute of the glammy, absurd high drama. Perhaps the most ‘90s of all wrestling shows of that time was the punk rock DIY version, Incredibly Strange Wrestling, which got its start in San Francisco in 1995 and then toured the world. Imagine an even more unhinged take on pro-wrestling mixed with the spirit (and sometimes masks) of Luche Libre and in-your-face Jackass-style antics. Add a few punk bands and a lot of tortillas flying around the audience, and you have some incredibly strange wrestling. Joining Audra and Raymond is the author, podcast host, and former Incredibly Strange wrestler, Bob Calhoun, who worked under the moniker Count Dante. Bob regales us with tales of the phenomenon, plus discusses some of the best moments of ‘90s wrestling in general. We even read some listener mail on the topic. Join Retrophilia on Instagram and Facebook, and share your memories too. And check out Bob's podcast, Old Movies For Young Stoners!

In this episode: Attorney for Vince McMahon issues response to new lawsuit filed by former WWF (WWE) ring boys, WWE Wrestlemania 41's cheapest nosebleed seats going for $1,600 due to Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing, and Bron Breakker's face-off with Jacob Fatu said to have received “heavy internal praise” from WWESupport Victims of Hurricane Helene: https://gofund.me/f9744f68Support Eastern Kentucky: https://secure.kentucky.gov/FormServices/Finance/EKYFloodReliefSupport My Patreon if you like what you hear! https://www.patreon.com/jamminjon

Here we see ourselves at week 38 of the 1993 WWF/WWE programming year. New feuds are emerging as The Undertaker sneaks up behind Yokozuna in the dark, and Crush dials up Macho Man to chew him out over the phone - true 90's style. The model Rick Martel returns to Monday Night Raw to face the undefeated Native American Tatanka while Barry Horowitz and The 1-2-3 Kid somehow find themselves in a tag team title match against The Quebecers. Jimmy Snuka returns for a hot minute, we talk about how great the razor's edge is, how much Vince McMahon loves money, Mr. Perfect's impeccable style, and lastly (but never least) Shawns Michaels is forced to leave the building for a 6 week suspension. We go over the kayfabe and real (maybe?) reasons why. Jen's still not over it.

Jonathan Hood and CJ Taylor review the "Mr. McMahon" documentary about the life and times of former WWE Owner and Chairman, Vince McMahon.

This week, the Netflix doc, Mr. McMahon. If you're not a fan of wrestling, maybe pass on this one? Or better yet, give it a shot. It's about the brains (so to speak) behind pro wrestling and his seedy background promoting the enterprise which fused sport and entertainment, the WWF / WWE. So, brother...step into the squared circle, and throw yourself off the top turnbuckle. Tune in, and don't forget to sub.

This week on the September 18th 1993 episode of Superstars and the September 20th episode of Monday Night Raw we saw Bret Hart and Scott Steiner wrestle, though not each other. We talk a little about these pretty uneventful episodes and a little about the first episode of Mr. McMahon, the Vince McMahon documentary on Netflix.

Jonathan Hood and Charles Taylor review the "Mr. McMahon" documentary about the life and times of former WWE Owner and Chairman, Vince McMahon.

This did not come without controversy.Most of these interviews were done in 2021If this was to portray Vince McMahon (the person) you only get that in episode 1 and 6. The rest seems to be more about Mr. McMahon the character on television and blurs the lines between Vince McMahon (the person) and Mr. McMahon, the WWE character.We hear from several people during the six episodes from Shane McMahon, Stephaine McMahon, Linda McMahon, Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Bret Hart, Tony Altus, eric Bischoff and others throughout all episodes.We hear all about the scandals and lawsuits that rocked the WWF-WWE from the time Vince McMahon Junior took over his Father's company.Such scandals includeVince McMahon raping Rita Chatterton (first female referee)Sexual Advances not taken resulting in firing(s)Steroid scandalSable suing WWFSteroid talk again after Chris Benoit double murder-homicideJanel Grant casethe real question is, is there a difference between Mr. McMahon & Vince McMahon?

My long form history of pro wrestling series is a month-by-month break down of the history of pro wrestling. Currently, we are up to July 1984 (which I cover in my DragonKingKarl Stern's 1984-1985 Pro Wrestling Omnibus book) and one of the major events in the rise of WWF/WWE takes place - Black Saturday, when Championship Wrestling from Georgia went off the air replaced by WWF programming. It did not go well. Plus, Rick Martel as AWA champion, New Japan, Mid-South has a huge show, and much more!

The Stevie Richards Show returns with a brand new show starring Stevie Richards himself, but it's the first proper episode of the show after episode 1 somehow only ended up talking about news stories! The Stevie Richards Show episode 2 features The WWF/WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA and ROH veteran doing some deep dives on the true nature of what WWE's “downside guarantee” contracts truly mean, what you can and cannot do while under a WWE contract, payment for injuries and more. Elsewhere, Stevie breaks down exactly what he earned in WWE and how much he ended up spending while on the road with WWE on hotels, rental cars, food, drink, hotels and more. How much money was Stevie left with at the end of the year? Mr Richards reveals all, with a little help from the trusty whiteboard. Speaking of whiteboards, episode 2 of The Stevie Richards show features not one, but two segments on the whiteboard this week, with a return to the wrestling analysis as Stevie re-examined the Bret Hart vs Goldberg StarrCade 1999 match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. The kick that Goldberg landed on Bret would give him a concussion that would see Bret eventually hang up his boots and retire a couple of weeks later, but we also look at various head trauma Bret suffered before and after the kick and Stevie asks the question: Did the kick solely end Bret Hart's career? Is Goldberg truly at fault? Are they just a pair of marks who can't let go of the past? That might be a bit strong, but it's an excellent deep dive. Stevie also tackles Kevin Nash's complaining about CM Punk taking time off to rehab his torn triceps (again) - is Nash complaining because he's bitter or because he hates CM Punk? And to top it off, Stevie looks at the world's WORST babyface who, thankfully, has finally turned heel. But before she did, Stevie takes a look at some of the pretty mean spirited stuff she said in recent interviews and wonders how she was ever thought of as a babyface in the first place! Stevie Richards surprised, entertained and informed the wrestling world in 2023 when he debuted the Stevie Richards' Wrestling Analysis YouTube channel to widespread critical acclaim. Combining his experience in the wrestling profession with his keen eye for detail and a passion for teaching fans and workers alike, Richards achieved over 100,000 YouTube subscribers in a matter of months with his short form videos explaining exactly what went right or wrong in a particular match or manoeuvre. With 30+ years working for nearly every major American promotion during their hottest periods (ECW, WCW, WWE, TNA), Stevie Richards is not only dusting off his patented whiteboard and marker to once again break down the psychology and physicality of this crazy business, but Stevie is now adding to his repertoire by debuting a weekly show, imaginatively titled The Stevie Richards Show. The "show" in The Stevie Richards Show is the key word - this will not be another run of the mill podcast recorded on Zoom, clipped up and posted 8 times a day on YouTube and featuring a disinterested ex pro wrestler out to make a quick buck. What makes The Stevie Richards Show a "show" will be the attention to detail given to every episode, including added on screen annotations, factoids, images and video and 4K camera set up to give the sharpest, best looking, broadcast quality videos on YouTube. Most importantly of all, The Stevie Richards Show's output will be about quality, not quantity. Every Friday, Stevie Richards and co-host James Romero (WSI | Wrestling Shoot Interviews, Story Time with Dutch Mantell) will discuss the latest news, delve deep into the wrestling profession with more detail and first hand experience than any other podcast, answer fan submitted questions and, yes, break out the whiteboard to break down the what went right, or wrong, in the wrestling world. The Stevie Richards Show debuts on YouTube and all podcast platforms on Friday, June 28th. YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/@StevieRichardsShow

Welcome back to the Distinctly Detroit Podcast. On today's episode, we are happy to have Brian Colding. Brian is an art teacher with Detroit Public Schools at Renaissance High School.

He wrestled with networks like WWF/WWE and AWWL, and after stepping away from Wrestling for a bit he has made a comeback. The DDP welcomes the super Brian Colding!

Ever wonder who threw all those beers to Stone Cold Steve Austin in the ring? It was Mark Yeaton, former WWF/WWE timekeeper and referee! He's got the stories about near-misses, long throws, and how much beer they really went through each night! Mark also took part in 27 Wrestlemanias, was around for Hulkmania, had a front-row seat for Roddy Piper & Mr. T, and even drove the WWF ring truck (so he can tell you EXACTLY how those rings were made & what's changed since the 80s)!

A haphazardly constructed card that suffers greatly from the absence of then WWF world heavyweight champion, Shawn Michaels, the second half of No Way Out of Texas is a bit of a letdown, but a chaotic and consummately Attitude Era one nonetheless.

Chris is back for this fun and interesting episode of Bacon On The Rocks. The guys catch up a bit on what has been happening with them lately. Then they get into an article they found on Facebook about old traditions and saying that have stood the test of time. Next the talk about the way Facebook fills your feed with some of the most random stuff ever and how you might have stopped quick to look at a photo of something you may not be too interested in, then the next thing you know the feed is filled with content from the image or video. Then they shift to growning up and watching the WWf/WWE. Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Shawn Michaels, Catus Jack, and more is all discussed and more on this episode of BOTR.

Welcome to episode 48 of the Still Spinning Podcast, the Total Eclipse edition. To start us off, Dan tells a story of meeting a listener of the podcast out in the wild! It is a first for us and we were excited.   Yesterday was the eclipse, and we would have been remiss not to talk about it. Dan was sending Nicole updates and instructions on the best time to watch and it was totally worth it.   Imagine sitting in the window seat of a plane as it is taking off and you see part of the engine cover blowing in the wind. This happened Sunday to a passenger on a Southwest flight and we shared some (what looked to Nicole like) scary footage but Dan said it was no big deal! Looked like a big deal to Nicole!   Nicole loves Costco and has been trying to convert Dan for years and is close to breaking him. Costco is in the news as they are cracking down on who can purchase their famous $1.50 hot dog/soda combo and TBH, Nicole did not realize it needed to be cracked down on. This led to a mini discussion on stores with rules that they do not enforce. And somehow, it also leads to a discussion of wrestling, particularly WWF/WWE in the 80's. It was quite a night!   Thanks for tuning in! Please check out our website at stillspinningpodcast.com and tell your friends to check us out!

All month long we'll be reviewing WWF/WWE shows from 1998, The Attitude Era, more specifically the programming leading up to and including the No Way Out of Texas: In Your House pay-per-view. This week, we continue with a review of the 246th episodes of Monday Night Raw, which occurred on February 9th, 1998 in Evansville, IN. The “go home” Raw before the Now Way Out of Texas pay-per-view, the episode is once again rife with shenanigans and inconclusive finishes, but features several entertaining promos designed to set the stage for the pay-per-view to come, and perhaps more importantly, Mike Tyson's involvement in Shawn Michaels and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin's upcoming clash at Wrestlemania XIV Follow us on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@catchinguponcinema⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us on Twitter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CatchingCinema⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Like, share, subscribe, and we'll catch you next time!

Waddup Waddup Waddup! Sorry for the lay off Unc Dove was down for a while but the guys are back in full fashion and they brought Frsco and Trizzy with them. The guys got right into the most popular topic the Women's NCAA basketball championship. Predictions were given as well as thoughts on Caitlyn Clark and some of the other college stars who may be entering the WNBA. Of course the Sixers had to be a topic of discussion with Joel Embiid coming back right before the NBA playoffs. What are their title chances. The guys shared who they like on the east and west plus their MvP picks. Last but not least they discussed Wrestlemania 40 which is taking place in Philadelphia for the 2nd night . The conversation got deep ranging from the importance of Wrestlemania to Philly and some comparisons to the old WWF/WWE. This episode was recorded during the Women's Basketball NCAA championship . And don't worry the guys are back for good!

This episode's title is a nod to the iconic WWF/WWE tag-team of Stone Cold Steve Austin & Triple H & it is the perfect analogy to describe the dynamic of Jared Fetrow of U-Relax Moving and host Paul Schiffbauer Jr. on this edition of Schiffbauer Over Rocks.Jared tells Paul about his upbringing and how entrepreneurship was a focal point at an early age growing up in York, PA, the buildup of the U-Relax brand, how he has co-branded and cross promoted with local businesses, success strategies that shed a little light on the secret sauce his business has had with Paul's company, Schiffbauer Consulting Group and what's to come. Oh, and there's more wrestling references than a WWE Hall of Fame Induction ceremony.U-Relax is a reputable and professional local moving company in Central Pennsylvania committed to providing top-notch relocation services with a focus on customer satisfaction from the point of contact until the last piece of furniture is placed properly in your new home. Jared and his team pride themselves on efficiency, reliability, and a stress-free moving experience for their customers.Check out Jared and U-Relax Moving at the following links:https://moversyorkpa.com/https://www.facebook.com/urelaxmovingcohttps://www.youtube.com/@U-RelaxMovingCohttps://www.facebook.com/jared.fetrowSpecial thank you to our host location, Casta Cigars Co. for having us.Casta Cigars aims to offer the embodiment of luxury when it comes to cigar smoking.

All month long we'll be reviewing WWF/WWE shows from 1998, The Attitude Era, more specifically the programming leading up to and including the No Way Out of Texas: In Your House pay-per-view. This week, we kick things off with the 243rd episodes of Monday Night Raw, which occurred on January 12th, 1998 in State College, PA. The “go home” Raw before the '98 Royal Rumble, the pay-per-view directly preceding No Way Out '98, the episode is largely lacking in quality in-ring action, but is buoyed by frequent appearances by “Stone Cold” Steve Austin throughout the show.

Beefed up physiques covered with a sheen of body oil. Stage names like “The Undertaker” and “The Animal.” Entrances accompanied by loud music and deafening cheers (or boos). Action-packed matches, sometimes involving objects like metal chairs or thumbtacks.  These are just a few of the elements that might spring to mind at the mention of pro wrestling, but the sport is so much more than that. What role did the carnival play in the development of professional wrestling? How accurate is the depiction of the Louisville area wrestling scene and the aspiring wrestlers of the OVW, as seen in the Netflix docuseries “Wrestlers”?  How do athletes and fans of the sport respond to claims that pro wrestling is fake? What did Al Snow– a former WWE wrestler who now helps run the OVW– mean when he stated that pro wrestling is the art of physical storytelling? With help from pro wrestling fans Chris, Chandra, and Steve, we delve into these questions, and so much more! Candy and Ashley even brainstorm their own potential wrestling stage names… although suggestions are always welcome. ;)   Link is in bio!
