Wrestling Wars Of The 90'S Episodes

Got a hankerin' for Mantaur? Dick Murdoch? IRS vs Undertaker? Well all your prayers have been answered with this episode! Royal Rumble kicks off the ACCLAIMED year of 1995 for wrestling, and we begin the road to Wrestlemania 11. Bret and Diesel have a classic on this show....but otherwise, there's lots to beat up about this event. This episode has 4 podcast hosts discussing the Royal Rumble, and a special WATCH-ALONG of the Royal Rumble match itself. Timestamp for the Rumble match (Peacock): 1...

Ready to hear about Brutus Beefcake main eventing the biggest show of the year? WELL TOO BAD, THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE GETTING. The culmination of the acclaimed "masked man attacking Hulk Hogan" storyline, the Three Faces of Fear running roughshod, and Mr. T. The equation for a perfect wrestling show. We also get a glimpse into the future with a match between Alex Wright and Jean Paul Levesque, and Harlem Heat! This is a wacky one, you won't want to miss it. Check out the $2 Steak Podcast wherever yo...

How can you go wrong with insane Bob Backlund? Or with ample amounts of little people? Well, listen to this podcast and you'll find out. We got 5 vs 5 matches, Yokozuna vs Undertaker in a Casket Match, and most importantly, Chuck Norris. Join myself, the Monday Night Chores, Queasy, Sleazy, and Cheesey on this colorful ride through peak New Generation Era. Check out the Monday Night Chores Podcast!

BOOOOOOO! No no, that's not that crowd's reaction to Hogan, that's a ghost sound. Because Halloween. Get it? Well you'll also get a smashing (pumpkins) episode here covering one of WCW's more prominent PPVs! This show has everything: Career vs Career in a Steel Cage, Honky Tonk Man, Arn Anderson vs Dustin Rhodes, and piledrivers through pumpkins. Strap in, folks! Was glad to have Joey from "The Angle Podcast" on this episode! Joey puts out a ton of great content; a really knowledgeable guy and ...

Let's get EXTREME.....ly absurd with this episode. The first "Extreme Championship Wrestling" event ever is here, and what a time capsule to get into. We got a blind Sandman, Dean Malenko chloroforming his opponent, and the infamous Chris Benoit / Sabu neck break spot. A monumental show for the company and for the wrestling industry. Matt Ridder from the "Smackin' It Raw" Podcast returns to bask in the ridiculousness. Check out his weekly podcats and follow him on social media! @MattRidder on ...

WAR GAMES! We don't actually get to hear William Regal say those iconic words on this event, but we do get him in a powdered wig so...that's something? In addition to that, we have a hilariously exhausting promo/phone call between Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair, we have Terry Funk being a shirtless madman, and Jim Duggan sparks something that will go on to change wrestling forever -- Stone Cold Steve Austin. Joined by James from “That 90's Wrestling Podcast”, you can find his podcast on Youtube and w...

In this episode, we take a journey back to 1994 to recap Hulk Hogan's WCW debut! Not enough for you? It's Hulk Hogan vs Ric Flair for the WCW World Title! Still not enough? Mr T is there!....for some reason. In addition to this monumental dream match, there are also some sleeper classics on the show; including Steve Austin vs Ricky Steamboat and Dustin Rhodes getting turned on by Arn Anderson (shocker). And who better to review this landmark episode in the history of WCW than past guest, Burying...

This episode is so hot, it’s scary!!! The year of 1994 is widely perceived as a down year for wrestling; and by many metrics, it is. However, the Summer of 94 sees so many impactful seeds being planted: Hogan debuting in WCW, Shane Douglas dropping the NWA Title and igniting ECW, and Jeff Jarrett vs Mabel here at Summerslam. This show is mainly known for Bret vs Owen in the cage, and for Undertaker vs Undertaker. However, there are so many other interesting and funny elements of the show that di...

WCW in 1994, what a spectacle. And not in a good way. But definitely in a car-crash entertaining way. We got Sting vs Vader for the International World Title that Rick Rude had to vacate due to injury, another insane street fight involving Cactus Jack and The Nasty Boys, and....The WCW Television Champion Lord Steven Regal vs Larry Zbyszko....in a non-title match.....on a PPV....for some reason. But we won't let that ruin our day. JD from "RedLeaf RetroCast" joins me for this episode and thank ...

Art Donovan. Do you need any more reason to listen to this episode or watch this show? Well, you shouldn't; but King of the Ring 1994 also is the official beginning of the New Generation Era, contains the best 5 minute match you'll ever see between Owen Hart and 123 Kid, and has too much IRS. The perfect recipe! And even better, James from "That 90's Wrestling Podcast" joins me to go through all this tomfoolery! We have a fun time stepping in the ol' time machine for this one; lots of hilarity a...

Listen to a guy who has NEVER watched WCW start his journey with Spring Stampede 1994. Did you guys know that Stone Cold wrestled Great Muta? I do now. And it was hilariously disappointing. This show had so many car crash moments and is such an interesting time capsule to look at, given the state of wrestling in 1994. Subscribe!

Overall, not a strong show, but an incredibly interesting time capsule to open. Bret and Owen had arguably one of the greatest matches of all-time, the first ever ladder match occurs, and Fink has hair. Through the good and the bad (and boy, there A LOT of bad), this show was an entertaining watch. And this is the first episode of the “Wrestling Wars of the 90s” series. Where we go back in time and review old WWF, WCW, and ECW in parallel; chronologically. Wrestling competition is a very relevan...
