If only Brian Last and Jim Cornette hadn't just done this on the 6:05podcast about six weeks ago... Who?

Well this will probably be the unfiltered, CWC version of the cruiserweights, so it will likely be pretty good

Good points. I would say that I think "getting yourself over" in the sense Parv meant it is more directed at those who are constantly bragging and hyping how great they are throughout a given show, and not just about being charismatic and engaging.

Our own Marty Sleeze reporting live says this is false

Do you have a link for Fuji vs Strongbow? I poked around youtube briefly but it was late. I've seen you talk about it before but haven't watched it. Happy to do so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrf8-b3KdGY&list=PLV6RCTo_Cd0BXlaewfw9iR2lIqGUQqfdl&index=1 It's the second to last match on this card, the first one ever televised from MSG

Meltzer made a good point that the first ever female main event should be something promoted weeks in advance and not a last minute decision like it would be Sunday

Only the Titans have the strength to survive those trials

http://placetobenation.com/tag-teams-back-again-episode-21-summerfest-88/ Kelly and Marty slap on some sun screen and head to the beach to review the tag team matches from two hot cards from the summer of '88: Wrestlefest from County Stadium in Milwaukee and the inaugural Summerslam card from MSG! From Wrestlefest: -The Fabulous Rougeaus vs The Killer Bees -The Bolsheviks vs The Powers of Pain -Demolition vs The British Bulldogs From Summerslam: -The Fabulous Rougeaus vs The British Bulldogs -The Bolsheviks vs The Powers of Pain -Demolition vs The Hart Foundation -The Megapowers vs The Megabucks

So is the Hardy Xmas party going to finally be the end or will they live to see 2017?

Yeah. And have you ever heard Sam Menacker call Stampede? Now that's bad commentery

That is the most untrue statement in the history of the world. I will go back to my own quote from the "How Important is Commentary" thread in this very forum: I would never make the claim that Ed was one of the all time greats, but this is pretty over the top hyperbole. Ed was/is beloved by a lot of people, he wasn't an incarnation of the devil. And all his supposed behind the scenes transgressions are overstated. The big angle you mention, involving Stomper and Bad News, Ed was in on. He "quit" to sell the severity of the situation, and only when the negative publicity in Calgary spiraled out of control did he decide not to come back. He had nothing to do with the show being cancelled, that was the athletic commissions doing. As for Ed's interactions with the heels during interviews, if you can't find entertainment value there I don't know what else to say, it's great pro wrestling IMO

I think all three of those ideas sound interesting. Maybe go with the worst shows idea to start since it would require the least amount of research and you wouldn't have to find obscure footage

I recommend everyone in podcasting or wanting to get into podcasting to teach themselves how to edit. Seriously, it's not hard. The first few attempts will be rough around the edges, but it doesn't take long to learn how to put together something decent. When I first started I thought it would be a lot more difficult. I would at least download Audacity and practice with that. There are several online tutorials out there, and anyone feel free to pm me for help. As for recording, downloading MP3 Skype Recorder is the free and easy way to go, although sometimes unreliable. But you aren't a real podcaster until you've experienced lost audio! Once you have it downloaded you can set it to automatically start recording as soon as the Skype call starts. Anyway, that's my two cents. Buy a guitar, learn three chords and start a band

"Wrestling is fake"

Apparently some big news is going to break tomorrow according to an ominous Wade Keller tweet...

If they owned it they could get TNA over with their audience if they wanted to. Probably fairly easily

For me, after surviving Ali vs Inoki I fear no match That was my Battle of the Somme

I do like the symmetry of Bob vs Hussein Arab being a match we reviewed on the first Titans with all four of us together (#2) and Bob vs Iron Sheik being on possibly the last...

Royal Rumble is in San Antonio in a building that holds 60,000+....

It odd, it's like we always end up back at Virgil and we don't plan it! He's our unofficial LFK mascot. It's funny, I can tell the Virgil drops aren't intentional yet somehow, everything ties back to Virgil. Six degrees of separation: Virgil. Every topic. Ever. EDIT: WWF Magazine request: I apologize because I sold all of my issues so I can't give you the exact month, but there's an issue in the Fall of 1991 that goes extremely in-depth reviewing a Virgil vs. Kato match. I swear to god this thing was at least 3 or 4 pages. Maybe another listener can help pinpoint it? Just giving the public what it wants, Virgil 24-7-365 baby

Shawn looks like George Hamilton

Joe's been great in NXT. He can still go with the best of them

I think most admit that it was an accident that could've happened to anyone regardless of experience level

I think they are actually going with an old school 5 teams against 5 teams match

Ed Whalen was far, far from the worst commentator ever and was actually really great in his interactions with the heels, and the Stampede TV show was usually entertaining, in spite of the clipped matches. Of course I'm a biased former Calgarian, but give it a chance, you may he surprised
