October 28, 20168 yr comment_5773282 You should definitely pick it up no matter what, but I'm down to do something if you want! PR or whatever. With the success of Between the Sheets, worst case scenario we could read old dvdvrs Please I'd be so pumped for that pod! I want more Pro Wrestling Super Shows with these Stephen & Tim people! It's returning
October 31, 20168 yr comment_5773887 How about something like Is This Match Actually Great? where I and a guest look at a match and our memories of when we first saw it and what the match means to us and then we do a live rewatch of said match and comment on what has changed for us viewing it for that time.
November 1, 20168 yr comment_5773944 An Idea for a show that I couldn't do but I want someone to do... The historical podcasts are my favorite in general and specifically I love career retrospectives like the one's KrisZ did on the Freebirds, Colon, Dusty, etc or Wrestling Culture did on Terry Funk, Ken Patera etc. I'd like to see a regular-ish show dedicated towards going through the WON Hall of Famers and talking about a wrestler per episode. Either by doing a career retrospective like the above mentioned podcasts or if not maybe running each wrestler through the Gordy list would be a fun way to give a different perspective on a wrestler and an easy format to keep the show moving. The only negative to a show like the Nick Bockwinkel Exile is that Bock had to die for it to happen. It'd be cool if someone was already working on the Pat Patterson Podcast because wrestling history is awesome and so is Pat Patterson. I don't know as much about Frank Sexton or Ray Steele as I'd like to know about them. Even someone like Jim Londos who gets called the biggest star in wrestling history by a number of noted historians. I know bits and pieces but not nearly enough considering his reputation. Where the hell is the Jim Londos podcast? Technology hates me and I'd be trying to run and edit shows from a complete zero starting point. Plus I think I'd struggle to get knowledgeable guests unless KrisZ would be open to doing yet another podcast that is basically just "Elliott sits under the KrisZ learning tree" as he teaches us all even more about wrestling history. So because I don't think I could truly pull it off and because Kris gives us SO much great content already I hate to even jokingly suggest adding to his plate, I nominate Dave Musgrave to take this idea and bring it to life because of his experience & reputation as a great podcaster, his status as a HOF voter, and because he is clearly interested in and open to learning about wrestling history and would take it seriously enough that it'd be the sort of well researched show we've come to expect from the epic placetobenation wrestler breakdown podcasts. Just putting this out there into the universe in the hopes that somehow it will happen. The more cool history podcasts the better.
November 1, 20168 yr Author comment_5773946 Elliott, this show actually already exists on the feed. It's called Wrestling Eye and is done by my LFK co-host That Chap Called Allan. He's had guys like Kris and Dylan on, as well as John Lister and others. They are a fantastic listen.
November 1, 20168 yr Author comment_5773949 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/sets/wrestling-eye Jim Breaks and Bearcat Wright eps especially recommended.

Already being done mate.
November 2, 20168 yr comment_5774113 This is more of a listener request but how about a Titans of Wrestling style podcast reviewing WWF MSG shows during the Hogan era? I love this era and it's not really being covered in-depth outside of the occasional Mystery Titans Theatre.
November 12, 20168 yr comment_5775070 Manatee - you're going to see that from 1985 forward on the Place to Be Podcast. They'll be circling back to '85 and running through every MSG show in addition to the super shows. Scott and Justin excel in that time period - we've recently written refreshes of the shows (not the MSG ones) from that time and have an eBook of them out. That's on the Place to Be Nation Wrestling feed. Friendly bump of this post also for being 11/12. One pilot has already debuted and we have a couple others in production. Still time for ideas and submissions.

That's on the Place to Be Nation Wrestling feed. That is excellent news. I have been listening to the podcast from the beginning and enjoy those guys but have very little interest in the era they have been covering recently. I'm going to go ahead and give myself credit for willing this into existence.
November 13, 20168 yr comment_5775089 One idea I have is revolving the Greatest Wrestler Ever project and the wrestlers that made the list. Each week I would put each of the wrestlers in a randomizer, and do an overview of their career and choose one recommended match to live watch. I will incorporate comments made by members on the board and then come to a verdict. The title for the show would be Verdict of the All Time Greats. What would you think of that idea
November 13, 20168 yr comment_5775099 That sounds like a fun idea. The execution is what matters. Most of the shows based on just a match or one wrestler can be slow and boring bc the subject matter is limited. Maybe throw two or threebok guys into each episode and mix it up a little?
November 13, 20168 yr comment_5775112 Keep in mind we're angling for just around an hour when planning that out. Couple pilots in place - another will be out this week
November 13, 20168 yr comment_5775114 I'd love to see a pod that focuses on a month of the pro wrestling magazines from the past in the style of BtS. Call the pod From the Pages of the Wrestling Magazines.
November 17, 20168 yr comment_5775558 Hi folks, I know you mentioned that you aren't looking to poach other podcasts, and that's all good, but we've currently only done two shows of our Puro Pourri podcast and are really just starting out... we've got several shows recorded and backed up ready to go, so I thought I'd run it by you guys anyway. Given how new we are I thought it'd be worth asking the question, but as I say, I acknowledge you've already mentioned you don't want pre existing ones so apologies if this comes across as me willfully ignoring that. Link to brand new thread I've just posted to give you a better idea of the show:http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/36069-the-puro-pourri-podcast-a-thematic-often-irreverent-look-at-japanese-wrestling/
November 17, 20168 yr comment_5775562 Hey SC - we'll definitely take a listen. You literally just started it so it certainly is still in the wheelhouse and something we'd like to consider.
