The Stevie Richards Show Episode 13 | Right to Censor: The Rise The Right to Censor faction was one of the most hated groups of all time.  Clearly a parody the Parents Television Council who were against the kind of televison product the WWE were putting out at the time.  But what was the creation process like for the group?  Did Stevie have much say in the creative for the group?  Did he have any sway over who would be part of the faction? While the group gained traction amd heat from the fans, there was a lot of frustration within the members of the group itself.  In this first of a 2 part deep dive, Stevie will talk about the problems he faced and how it affected him and the relationship with his fellow RTC members. Stevie Richards surprised, entertained and informed the wrestling world in 2023 when he debuted the Stevie Richards' Wrestling Analysis YouTube channel to widespread critical acclaim. Combining his experience in the wrestling profession with his keen eye for detail and a passion for teaching fans and workers alike, Richards achieved over 100,000 YouTube subscribers in a matter of months with his short form videos explaining exactly what went right or wrong in a particular match or manoeuvre. With 30+ years working for nearly every major American promotion during their hottest periods (ECW, WCW, WWE, TNA), Stevie Richards is not only dusting off his patented whiteboard and marker to once again break down the psychology and physicality of this crazy business, but Stevie is now adding to his repertoire by debuting a weekly show, imaginatively titled The Stevie Richards Show. The "show" in The Stevie Richards Show is the key word - this will not be another run of the mill podcast recorded on Zoom, clipped up and posted 8 times a day on YouTube and featuring a disinterested ex pro wrestler out to make a quick buck. What makes The Stevie Richards Show a "show" will be the attention to detail given to every episode, including added on screen annotations, factoids, images and video and 4K camera set up to give the sharpest, best looking, broadcast quality videos on YouTube. Most importantly of all, The Stevie Richards Show's output will be about quality, not quantity. Every Friday, Stevie Richards and co-host James Romero (WSI | Wrestling Shoot Interviews, Story Time with Dutch Mantell) will discuss the latest news, delve deep into the wrestling profession with more detail and first hand experience than any other podcast, answer fan submitted questions and, yes, break out the whiteboard to break down the what went right, or wrong, in the wrestling world.

This week, Stevie Richards focuses on weapons in wrestling and just how far is too far. "Hangman" Adam Page and Swerve Strickland used wooden splinters, staple guns, cinder blocks, chair shots to the head and a syringe in the mouth in the AEW All Out 2024 unsanctioned cage match main event. In fact, most everything but the cage they were wrestling in! So why use all these weapons in one match? Is any chair shot, no matter how "gimmicked", worth the risk? Why ever use a real cinder block to take slams on? On the theme of foreign objects, Stevie also ranks every single weapon that's been used on him, from fire extinguishers to thumb tacks to baseball bats to cookie sheets to ladders and everything in between. And in a special video analysis segment, Stevie discusses the time he worked with a prop taser in TNA wrestling Abyss, only to find out that the prop taser hurt more than the real one! Elsewhere, Stevie reacts to Hulk Hogan comparing himself to Chris Benoit in possibly the stupidest sentence he's ever uttered on Logan Paul's Impaulsive podcast, as well as Kevin Nash getting all jelly over Logan Paul's contract and "not being one of the boys" only to get thoroughly trashed by Logan Paul himself the day after. That naturally leads Stevie to asking the question - who really is the better wrestler, Kevin Nash or Logan Paul? You want the answers? Stay tuned!

Better late than never.  You want deep dives? Today we're going DEEEEEEEEEEEP on finishers.  Stevie is ranking Attitude Era finishers based on how much they actually hurt.  Then Stevie will tell us his Top 3 Superkicks.  The #1 spot might just surprise you! Stevie Richards spent a lot of time with Raven early in his career.  Raven took a young Steven Richards under his wing (pun intended) but what was life as Raven's lackey actually like?  In this episode, Stevie will talk in depth about Raven's influence on his career, the challenges in working with Raven and the other member's of Raven's nest as the group grew.  In this week's smartboard segment, Stevie will break down "The Chair Shot Heard Round the World" Tommy Dreamer vs Raven at ECW Heat Wave 1995.  What made the spot so important and what did both men do to make it so memorable?

A very Hulk-centric episode of The Stevie Richards Show this week.  Stevie talks about Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff arrival in TNA and how that indirectly impacted his career in the company, the influence and changes that came about on the back of it and a very interesting memory Stevie has from a conversation where the Hulkster let his guard down backstage. Stevie fires up the Smartboard to perform a breakdown of Hulk Hogan taking the Undertaker's Tombstone.  Could the Hulkster have sustained a real deal injury from the move and cause the Deadman to fear for his job? Then, in the main event, Stevie takes a look at some of the biggest fibs Hulk Hogan has told over many years including being asked to join Metallica, Discovering Kevin Owens and JUST missing out of the BIGGEST endorsement ever!   Stevie Richards surprised, entertained and informed the wrestling world in 2023 when he debuted the Stevie Richards' Wrestling Analysis YouTube channel to widespread critical acclaim.

The Stevie Richards Show 8 | 5 Star Matches The 5 Star Match has become a huge talking point in the wrestling community.  In a world where wrestling has become more divisive than ever, Dave Meltzer's rating system has become one of the hottest topics in wrestling.  Fans who want to highlight where most 5 star matches take place, or those who point out that some of the greatest wrestlers to ever step in the ring HAVE NEVER been awarded the 5 stars by Uncle Dave.  It seems that even some of today's young performers are out to impress one man over the world as a whole.  This week, Stevie Richards will take a look at, what HE considers 5 Star Matches, explain what criteria is met and why some matches don't make the cut.  The cherry on top will be comparing those matches to the Meltzer standard and what those same matches got from WON.

Episode 7 - Steroids The discussion of steroids in pro-wrestling is a never ending one.  The subject has been around for decades and always will be, probably.  This week, Stevie Richards will discuss the steroid culture in pro-wrestling past and present and the impact it has had on his career and the careers of his friends in the business.  He will also shed some light on WWE's drug testing policies from his own personal experiences.  The inconsistencies, the hypocrisy and the down right unfairness of how it was applied to some but not others.

Episode 6 | Pro Wrestling Injuries In the deepest of deep dives, Stevie will be talking about the most significant, painful and costly injuries he suffered during his 30 year in ring career. This video shows just a few of those injuries. Stevie will not only show us a detailed timeline of when the injuries occured along with a story of how they happened and what sort of treatments he has had over the years to correct and treat the problems, but he will also talk about how each of the incidents changed his approach to his work and training, how much effort went into rehab and more.

This week Stevie sets out to end the debate once and for all using logic and math.  Who was better in their prime, Bret "Hitman" Hart or "HBK" Shawn Michaels?  Stevie will head to the smartboard and break it down one attribute at a time and decide who truly was the best of the best.  Stevie will also talk about his experiences with both men and tell us why the saying, "Never meet your heroes" is sometimes true.  Before the show ends, Stevie will also talk about THE SECRETS OF THE WRESTLING RING.  Here, he will breakdown the finer points of wrestling rings including anatomy, construction and the differences between the various types of ring he has performed in over the years.

Welcome back to The Stevie Richards Show!  It's Episode 4 and Stevie will be taking a very close and detailed look at the problems that plague AEW.  It begins with looking at a breakdown of costs which has found its way online and equates to a $4 Million spend on just one PPV and subsequent TV show.  It shows how much is being spent on almost all aspects of the shows production, rental of equipment and costs for talent and man hours.  Stevie will then head to the smart board for a theoretical but completely radical shake up of the AEW roster.  Who will make the cut in Stevie Richards' version of AEW and why do some stars NOT make the cut?   Enjoy!

We are 3 episodes in to The Stevie Richards Show and we couldn't be more grateful for the fantastic response to the show so far and the number of people who have tuned in and subscribed.  Thank you! This week, following The Rock's suggestion that his "Final Boss" heel character is the greatest heel of all time, Stevie will give his thoughts and nominate who he thinks is ACTUALLY the best heel ever and WHY! Then Stevie will talk about the various moves that have been banned, used and banned again in the ever changing rule book of WWE.  Which moves actually represent a great risk, which ones weren't so bad and which are the moves that aren't banned but should be? This week' whiteboard segment takes a very close look at the botched kickout from Money in the Bank 2024.  Was Damien Priest out cold?  Why wasn't he looking for the count?  What went wrong? Finally, Stevie will talk about what it was really like to wrestle Goldberg.  Is he reckless?  Can he work?  How do you plan a match with Goldberg?

The Stevie Richards Show returns with a brand new show starring Stevie Richards himself, but it’s the first proper episode of the show after episode 1 somehow only ended up talking about news stories! The Stevie Richards Show episode 2 features The WWF/WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA and ROH veteran doing some deep dives on the true nature of what WWE’s “downside guarantee” contracts truly mean, what you can and cannot do while under a WWE contract, payment for injuries and more. Elsewhere, Stevie breaks down exactly what he earned in WWE and how much he ended up spending while on the road with WWE on hotels, rental cars, food, drink, hotels and more. How much money was Stevie left with at the end of the year? Mr Richards reveals all, with a little help from the trusty whiteboard. Speaking of whiteboards, episode 2 of The Stevie Richards show features not one, but two segments on the whiteboard this week, with a return to the wrestling analysis as Stevie re-examined the Bret Hart vs Goldberg StarrCade 1999 match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. The kick that Goldberg landed on Bret would give him a concussion that would see Bret eventually hang up his boots and retire a couple of weeks later, but we also look at various head trauma Bret suffered before and after the kick and Stevie asks the question: Did the kick solely end Bret Hart’s career? Is Goldberg truly at fault? Are they just a pair of marks who can’t let go of the past? That might be a bit strong, but it’s an excellent deep dive. Stevie also tackles Kevin Nash’s complaining about CM Punk taking time off to rehab his torn triceps (again) - is Nash complaining because he’s bitter or because he hates CM Punk? And to top it off, Stevie looks at the world’s WORST babyface who, thankfully, has finally turned heel. But before she did, Stevie takes a look at some of the pretty mean spirited stuff she said in recent interviews and wonders how she was ever thought of as a babyface in the first place!

Every Friday, Stevie Richards and co-host James Romero (WSI | Wrestling Shoot Interviews, Story Time with Dutch Mantell) will discuss the latest news, delve deep into the wrestling profession with more detail and first hand experience than any other podcast, answer fan submitted questions and, yes, break out the whiteboard to break down the what went right, or wrong, in the wrestling world. The Stevie Richards Show debuts on YouTube and all podcast platforms on Friday, June 28th. YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/@StevieRichardsShow
