Send us a text The Hogan/Bischoff era is well and truly settled in now. Let's celebrate with prat falls, dog tags and big money contracts. Nice.

Send us a text It's time to tackle TNA's ill-fated attempt to recreate the mid-90s all over again, using mostly the same people. If we had a quid for every time Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair feuded, we'd have about £15, which isn't bad really. P.S. Sorry this one is a bit late, it's been a mad week!

Send us a text The road to Monday night Impact becomes a lot clearer, and it mostly revolves around Hulk Hogan's Hall of Fame ring. Yes, it's that episode.

Send us a text We all love a tournament! Well, on paper at least. Anyway, who cares about a tournament when there's opportunity for Eric Bischoff to insert himself into everything again?

Send us a text Okay, it hasn't got off to a great start, but things can turn around, can't they? All we need is a Montreal rerun, and then we're off to the races!

Send us a text It's the first PPV of the Hogan/Bischoff era, and there's no more stinkin' playpen rings, and lots more Sean Morley. That will definitely go well...

Send us a text He's here, and he's brought lots of awful friends with him! It's only fitting that an event as big as this has led to our longest ever recording. If you were wondering, the descent into madness begins around the two-hour mark. The absolute boy of Season 1 was Big Vito, while Mike Knox got the accolade in Season 2. Have we already found the absolute boy of Season 3? You bet your ass. (Episode recorded March 2025) Support the show Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod Patreon...
Send us a text It's time, brother! Much like the arrival of Hulk Hogan in TNA, the arrival of Season 3 is greatly hyped, we start talking about him before he's even appeared on TV, and things are better before he got there. Hopefully you're as excited as we were to witness the power of TWTWmania!

Send us a text We've got the tuxedos out of the wardrobe, we're all bloated from a fancy dinner, and we've had one too many cocktails - it's time for the awards ceremony! Let's find out who are the winner, the losers and the creamy middlers of Season 2!

Send us a text It's the coda of Season 2 (before we do the awards, anyway), and the aftermath of December to Dismember is a real opportunity for a reset of ECW. An opportunity that the company absolute fails to seize.

Send us a text It's here! WWECW has supposedly been building to this show for months; will it have the air of a Wrestlemania? Almost certainly not. Will it be any good? Almost certainly not.

Send us a text It's a bumper episode as we count down to December to Dismember. Three weeks of TV, so surely some stuff has to happen, right? RIGHT?!

Send us a text Season Two is entering the home straight, although actually that's not the best metaphor, as the home straight usually implies an exciting picking up of the pace. ECW on Sci-Fi is very much not achieving that objective!

Send us a text Silver lining: ECW on Sci-Fi is finally trying something new. Massive cloud: the thing they're trying is Extreme Strip Poker. As you'd expect, there's a lot of sex chat in this episode (frankly too much for a show built around Balls Mahoney). Consider yourself warned!

Send us a text Full disclaimer: Alan and Ronan are very hungover for this one. Is ECW on Sci-Fi the ultimate hangover cure? Of course not! An added layer of torture has been added, as this episode starts with a review of DX against Big Show and the McMahons inside *adopts Vince McMahon/gruff hangover voice* HELL IN A CELL!

Send us a text Hey look, ECW on Sci-Fi hasn't been great so far, but apparently they're trying new things here, so maybe...*checks notes*, oh God.

Send us a text Summerslam is over, but it's still Groundhog Day in ECW, as we watch a lot of rematches again. Still, is it possible that these may actually be a couple of decent episodes of TV? I mean, not really, but any port in a storm!

Send us a text Season 2 takes a quick detour into WWE proper, and it's a decision that we now greatly regret. Who's ready for the biggest funeral of the summer?

Send us a text This is a very silly episode. Frankly, finding anything funny in this continuous dross is great luck in itself. You won't believe this, but we get some bad squash matches, low-quality vignettes and bad Tommy Dreamer segments!
