Pro Wrestling commentary and tomfoolery for fans who want to be fans. A blend of the old and new, the mainstream and non-mainstream. Let’s not take oiled up men in their underpants too seriously. Chronologically covering various eras of wrestling. Companies big and small, across four different decades. Monday Night Wars. Attitude Era. Ruthless Aggression. Golden Eras of TNA, ROH, and PROGRESS. And much much more, tune in! The goal of this podcast is to reflect on the things we love about wrestling, as well as poke fun at the hilarity that often ensues. Let’s not take things too seriously. Let’s have fun.

Nobody in! Nobody out! Nobody getting over! If you're checking out this episode because you want to relive the insanity and chaos that was TNA in mid-2005.....you've come to the right place. The FIRST EVER Lockdown PPV in the history of TNA, and they certainly had some kinks to iron out. We got a classic between Abyss and AJ Styles, we got the world renowned Shocker competing, and we have a tragic injury right at the beginning of the show. So much to get into, it's a wild ride.

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 an entertaining listen. Go check him out!

No longer is PROGRESS just dipping their toes into story-based wrestling; they are all in with this chapter. Chapter 10 is a landmark show for the company, for so many reasons. We got the finals of the Natural Progression Series, we have the Tag Title Tournament kicking off, and we have Adam Cole vs Adam Cole (no, that is not a typo). But the ending stretch of this show is some of the most entertaining wrestling I've seen in quite some time, you'll definitely want to stick around till the end of this one.

Take a drink every time one of the commentators says “Beantown” on this show….yikes. But other than that, we got your favorite old school Ring of Honor shenanigans for you on this episode! Some of the company’s best matches so far happened on this show in Mark Briscoe vs Jay Briscoe and the first ever ROH Title defense by Low Ki against AJ Styles. We also see the tag division take shape, we see a Boston Massacre Street Fight (because they’re in Boston, do you get it?) and we see Fat Angel Garza vs Skinny Mojo Rawley for some New England title or something. Who knows. This is a fun one, folks!

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.

No fans for the Rumble? No problem! Kinda. Top to bottom, a great wrestling show, and one of, if not THE best PPV of the COVID Era. Bianca and Edge get their moments, golf carts become controversial, and it's......it's Christian. We get into all of the matches from the first WWE PPV of 2021, we discuss some of the shortcomings of WWE in general, and much much more. Subscribe!

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.

You read the title, and you probably thought "Hmm, I guess this is the show where Kurt Angle won the title, but what else happened?". Admittedly, I had the same thought before watching this show, but there turned out to be a TON of noteworthy stuff that occurred at Unforgiven 2001. Edge and Christian have their first match against each other in their breakup feud, Stephanie McMahon tries to have intercourse with RVD, and the infamous Kronik vs Undertaker and Kane match unfolds. There's good, there's bad, and there's ugly on this show, but it's a fun journey either way.
Dave from the "RA Era Podcast" joins me on this journey! A great podcast that just shoots from the hip and follows the Ruthless Aggression Era timeline in WWE; one of my personal favorites. If you enjoy the Apron Bump, you'll love RA Era Podcast.

Have you been itching to do a deep-dive into Trytan? Or "The Outlaw" Billy Gunn? Or the battle to become the secretary of Dusty Rhodes? No? WELL THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE GETTING WITH THIS EPISODE. Destination X 2005 is a classic representation of what TNA did wrong. They had a great amount of talent but didn't always know how to utilize them. However, on this show we do get to see a great Ultimate X (with overly convoluted extra rules), but this episode is mainly a hilarious journey through the pitfalls of Russo booking.
