Episodes

Uncensored 1999 18.05.2021

Episode 18: It's the ultimate showdown between Ric Flair and Hollywood Hogan in a barbwire steel cage first blood match for the title and control of WCW. If you thought that sentence was overbooked, just wait until the actual match. Plus we're in for what is sure to be a 5 star match between Vincent and Stevie Ray for control of the B-Team.

ECW Barely Legal 30.04.2021

Episode 17: We take a pit stop back in time and look at ECW's first ever pay per view. We gush over RVD's talent and Emily gets a little crush on an unlikely wrestler. We also attempt to match the Sandman in drinking speed to unfornate though unsurprising results.

Wrestlemania 37 18.04.2021

Episode 16: Its a bonus episode as we take a look at both parts of this year's Wrestlemania. Not much of a WCW tie in but of course somehow the NWO are here so I guess it counts.

Disco By God Inferno (Build to Uncensored '99) 12.04.2021

Episode 15: We tackle all 3 weeks of the build to Uncensored in one episode! "Who's that pokemon?" tries to live on, we talk about the price of hiring a prostitute and we get the unlikeliest of Mean Gene exclamations. Plus, we get a heel turn that nobody asked for.

Mongo's Last Stand (Build to SuperBrawl IX Part 2) 26.03.2021

Episode 13: Join the "Hollyhood party" in our swan song to Mongo. We also get a crappy straight to VHS beatdown of Ric Flair in the middle of a field and Kimberly goes from having a glass skull to being a stuntwoman.

SuperBrawl IX 26.03.2021

Episode 14: Strap in for another lackluster PPV. We find out who the mystery man with Torrie Wilson () is, Rey Mysterio puts his mask on the line for some reason and there may or may not be a stipulation where Scott Steiner can win Kimberly for 30 days. Is there actually? Who knows?!

Doubting El Dandy (Build to SuperBrawl IX Part 1) 15.03.2021

Episode 12: We're on our way towards Superbrawl; they're actually announcing matches and we get an infamous Bret Hart promo. Plus everyone's focusing on Rey Mysterio's mask. That can't be good.

Souled Out 1999 25.02.2021

Episode 11: Hey baby, I hear the blues a-callin', tossed salad and peeled potatoes. It'll make more sense after you listen. I mean, it won't, but you'll have context. We also get the in-ring debut of David Flair. Can he live up to the hype? (No)

Bye Bye, Big Show (1/11/99) 12.02.2021

Episode 10: It's one week from the finger poke of doom, how will WCW handle it? (Spoilers: Mostly by ignoring it) We also get one final battle of the Giants as we're 6 days away from Souled Out with only one match booked. Plus, we reveal our Boy Stables.

Sports Entertainment Double Feature (1/4/99 Nitro & Raw) 04.02.2021

Episode 9: We look at perhaps the most infamous episode of Nitro ever. Plus we take a look at what Raw put on opposite. Shouldn't be anything too significant on either, right?

Flair's Last Chance (12/28/1998 Nitro) 17.01.2021

Episode 8: It's the aftermath of Starrcade and our first full review of an episode of Nitro. Ric Flair almost gets naked and Chavo Guerrero is now riding a toy horse. High stakes stuff...

Starrcade 1998 05.01.2021

Episode 7: It's the biggest show of the year! We've got Norman Smiley vs Prince Iaukea and Scott Norton & Brian Adams vs Fit Finlay & Jerry Flynn. Wait... But we also get Goldberg vs Kevin Nash and Ric Flair vs Eric Bischoff. I'm sure everything is gonna go great.

Santa's Got Some Moves (The Build to Starrcade '98 Part 2) 25.12.2020

Episode 6: It's Christmas! Or as close to a Christmas episode as WCW is going to do. Listen as we lose our minds over 3 straight weeks of non-endings to Nitro. Plus apparently Ric Flair gets a little too excited...

None of You People Got Groins (The Build to Starrcade '98 Part 1) 23.12.2020

Episode 5: We're on the way to Starrcade and it seems like things are actually happening even though some people are just disappearing. But, hey, we get to see Goldberg actually wrestle!

World War 3 1998 13.12.2020

Episode 4: It's the final World War 3. The match itself is a complete mess and makes us wish WCW had just copied the Royal Rumble. We also get two straight "matches" that don't start or end. Could it possibly be worse than Halloween Havoc?

Hogan For President (The Build to World War 3 Part 2) 07.12.2020

Episode 3: Rick Steiner debuts another underwhelming partner and no one wants to talk about the World War 3 match for some reason. Also, Goldberg almost wrestles.

The Man's Wearing Glasses (The Build to World War 3 Part 1) 17.11.2020

Episode 2: We get our first taste of Monday Nitro on the way to World War 3 1998. The Warrior shows up and is never seen again and Ric Flair totally wrestles on TV, we swear.

Halloween Havoc 1998 (Abridged) 01.11.2020

It's our very first episode! Again! We wanted to put this out as an alternative shorter version of our original first episode as it was quite longer than our standard episodes. So if you're looking to get into our show, this is a much better starting point. And would you believe it, Hogan vs Warrior is still quite bad.

Halloween Havoc 1998 (Extended Edition) 31.10.2020

It's our first episode! Listen as we try to avoid talking about Hogan/Warrior II and gush over Chris Jericho's hair. Note: we now have an abridged version with better editing if this is a bit too long for you
