...apologies to our listeners for the recent radio silence!! I explain in this episode.
Happy 2023.
WWF Royal Rumble (Jan 1998)
1 Year in Wrestling
01/13/22 • 41 min
This is the Royal Rumble where the tide starts to shift back to WWF in the 'Monday Night Wars'.
Mike Tyson brings a lot of extra eyes to this PPV as he sits in a private box with Shane McMahon.
The Rumble starts with the infamous Cactus Jack / Chainsaw Charlie drawing 1 & 2 respectively. Classic stuff!
The New Age Outlaws continue to humiliate the Legion of Doom.
The event is headlined by Undertaker v HBK in a Casket Match that would see Michaels break his back on the casket...the match, itself, is outstanding.
WCW Starrcade (Dec 1997)
1 Year in Wrestling
12/28/21 • 29 min
Nick Patrick was "supposed" to do a quick 3 count to feed into the story that followed : Bret Hart came down, claiming no ref funny business will ever happen on his watch, punches out Patrick and re-starts the match.
Rumour has it Hogan told Patrick NOT to do the rushed count in order to get what he wanted out of the match..whether that was making Sting look weak or whatever his reasons may have been.
Sting had taken some heat for not being in ring-shape, as well - the hilarious quote of Bischoff suggesting he wasn't "tan enough".
Aside from the confusing main event - the rest of the PPV was fairly middle of the road...
Of note :
Benoit took on Saturn, Eddy took on Dean Malenko - all 4 of the Radicalz fought amongst themselves on this night.
Nash was unable to make the event due to legit health issues, so his match against the Giant was pulled.
Goldberg had his first official PPV match v Mongo McMichael.
Curt Hennig took on DDP.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL OF OUR LISTENERS OUT THERE!!
THANK YOU FOR TUNING IN FOR THIS PAST YEAR OF 1997 & 1990.
WE'LL BE COMING BACK AT YOU IN 2022 WITH '1 Year in Wrestling : 1998' ...as well as reviewing / rewatching the 'Big 4' for 1991.
See you next year!!!

WWF In Your House : D-Generation X
1 Year in Wrestling
12/17/21 • 42 min
D-Lo Brown getting a Stunner on the roof of a truck, and Owen Hart rushing the ring to attack HBK after the main event.
This PPV is the first PPV since Bret Hart left..a lot has changed. Vince is off-camera, for now, as the Mr.McMahon character is lurking just around the corner...JR and the King are the only 2 commentators for this event - which would set the tone for the Attitude Era, commentators-wise.
Brian Christopher and Taka M have an underrated match to kick things off, Marc Mero takes on Butterbean in a ToughMan Contest...
We get to see The Rock v Steve Austin in their first PPV match in a rivalry that would define the era.
As far as DX content :
Ken Shamrock proves he can hang with the main event crew as he takes on Shawn Michaels in the main event, while HHH takes on a 48 year old Sgt Slaughter in a Boot Camp Match..and the New Age Outlaws (pre-DX) take on the Legion of Doom.
ECW November to Remember (Nov 1997)
1 Year in Wrestling
11/30/21 • 18 min
I actually quite enjoyed this PPV.
Sabu v The Sandman in a 'Tables & Ladders' Match...very entertaining, sometimes unintentionally hilarious..
Tommy Dreamer v Rob Van Dam in a WWF/ECW Flag Match
Taz begins his uprising into the title picture.
Chris Candido continues to impress!
...and a sloppy & entertaining 4-way-dance tag match for the straps!! FBI v The Gangstanators v The Dudleys v The Hardcore Chair-Swingin' Freaks!!
oh, and Shane Douglas v Bam Bam Bigelow headlines.
WWF Survivor Series 1990 (BONUS EPI)
1 Year in Wrestling
11/24/21 • 20 min
So much nostalgia...the interviews and promos are worth the price of admission!!!
Hard to say these aren't some of the greatest SS teams ever on this PPV :
Ultimate Warrior, Legion of Doom & Texas Tornado VS Mr.Perfect and all 3 members of Demolition.
A debuting Undertaker with Ted DiBiase, Honky Tonk Man & Greg Valentine VS Dusty Rhodes, Bret Hart, Jim Neidhart, Koko B Ware
The Visionaries (Hercules, Paul Roma, Rick Martel, and The Warlord) (with Slick) defeated The Vipers (Jake Roberts, Jimmy Snuka, Marty Jannetty, and Shawn Michaels)
The Hulkamaniacs (Big Boss Man, Hulk Hogan, Jim Duggan, and Tugboat) defeated The Natural Disasters (The Barbarian, Dino Bravo, Earthquake, and Haku) (with Bobby Heenan and Jimmy Hart)
