Who would have thought that a creep would be a heel? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys share some mixed opinions on various aspects of the Breakdown Pay Per View. There are some very clear winners, like the Rock, and some clear losers, like Southern Justice. In between are matches featuring Al Snow, Gangrel, D-Lo Brown, and XPac, as well as a lesser end of the spectrum with Vader and Droz. Too Much? Not enough!
Shane, pal, you need to relax! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys take a look at the go-home show leading into the 1998 Breakdown Pay Per View. Getting a match with Southern Justice and the DOA is never a good thing, but X-Pac versus D-Lo Brown is always a good thing. Stone Cold Steve Austin, Kane, and the Undertaker get ring time, while Mankind, the Rock, and Ken Shamrock battle it out for the #1 Contender spot. When did Michael Cole start picking up dry cleaning?
Welcome back to Monday Night Raw! After suffering through a couple weeks of Raw Saturdays, the boys are back to discuss a star-studded episode of Monday Night Raw featuring Stone Stone Steve Austin, Ken Shamrock, The Rock, Mankind, Undertaker, Kane, Edge, Chyna, and many more! Plus, we get to see the first ever evening gown match, where the rules are very simple.
Welcome to another Raw Saturday Night! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys chat it up about another weak Saturday night version of Monday Night Raw. Edge takes on Jeff Jarrett, the Rock has some words for Triple H and Kane, and Chyna might have some lust in her eyes for Mark Henry!
The big dogs stay home on Saturday nights! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys view the fallout of SummerSlam, and a generally weak episode of Monday Night Raw. Vince McMahon baits the Undertaker and Kane, who go on a smearing streak through the whole episode, while less-than-interesting matches featuring Southern Justice and Los Boricuas get their full time on the card. It says something when Tiger Ali Singh is one of the most entertaining things in an episode- pucker up, sardine lips!
There’s a pretty big lack of Demon Seed here! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys examine the payoff of what was a notably poor buildup: SummerSlam 1998! Matches featuring D-Lo Brown and Ken Shamrock backed up some big-name contests including Stone Cold Steve Austin, the Undertaker, the Rock, and Triple H. Sable screeches her way back into the forefront, the horrible DX Band gives us a reprise, and there’s even a rare PPV Jobber of the Week. Watch out for those baby-stealing gypsies!
The Brawl for All bodycount reaches a crescendo! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys take a look at the go-home show leading into SummerSlam 1998. Dan Severn finally gets exposed, Southern Justice finally gets some in-ring time, and we finally get some resolution in the Cahoots! storyline (or do we?). Taka Michinoku approaches full “jobber” status while Bart Gunn confirms “badass” status, and take a drink every time there’s potential for CTE!
What’s that dripping out of Val’s pink cannon? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, we continue to build up to SummerSlam, with Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Undertaker setting up the story for their Main Event. Owen Hart and Ken Shamrock look good together, while Dan “the Beast” Severn continues to impress everyone. Nothing makes sense in the Six Man Street Fight between DeGeneration-X and the Nation, but Gangrel debuts on our screens. Wow, is that really President Clinton calling in tonight?
Is the Brawl For All over yet? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys are deep in the lead-up to SummerSlam, as well as the intrigue of CAHOOTS. Vader had a chance to get some hos from the Godfather, Droz gets some more screen time, and Southern Justice definitely does not have a match booked. It's also entirely possible that Jeff Jarrett might be interesting again!
Kane & Mankind take on the New Age Outlaws, which turns into a demolition derby of human anatomy! Tiger Ali Singh pays people to remove their garments. Sgt Slaughter is still the commissioner, and we get action featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin, the Undertaker, Owen Hart, the Rock, Triple H and X Pac. Did Kai En Tai leave Val Venis jobless?
Choppy choppy your pee pee! We have reached a classic episode of Monday Night Raw. Val Venis runs into some issues with Kaientai, the Godfather has some escorts with him for the first time, and Dr Death is on the receiving end of a career ending knockout blow by Bart Gunn. We also discuss a main event tag match featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin, the Undertaker, Kane, and Mankind.
Don’t just blow it, show it, HO! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys check out the “tweener” Pay Per View, Fully Loaded. This show features the infamous bikini contest between Jacqueline and Sable, a Hart Dungeon Match between Owen Hart and Ken Shamrock, and some answers as to who’s in cahoots with each other. The Rock and Triple H try for a barn burner, and Vader calls in once again for a status update. Who asked for a DOA match, SKANK?
Let the downward spiral of Steve Williams’ future begin! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys watch the go-home Monday Night Raw leading into the Fully Loaded Pay Per View. This week’s “Brawl 4 All” victim was Quebecer Pierre, while everybody was a victim of being subjected to another DOA/LOD match. D-Lo Brown wins the European Championship, Faarooq returns to our screens, and The Rock defends the Intercontinental Title against X-Pac. How can you tell if a mumu is worked?
We’re just gonna pretend like it never happened! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys sit down to talk about another “Brawl 4 All”-era Monday Night Raw, where the only thing more common than the ruined careers are “we want wrestling” chants. Dan “The Beast” Severn boxes with the Godfather, and the New Midnight Express’ choice to box each other leads to a cataclysmic breakup. Mick’s shoulder is still messed up, can we raise his arm if it’s to give him a Tag Tile?
Let’s dip our toes into Texas once again! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys review a lesser example of what World Class Championship Wrestling can provide, with matches featuring Captain Frank Dusek and Wild Bill Irwin. Gary Hart ushers in a feud between the Great Kabuki and Kerry Von Erich, while Kevin Von Erich gets a squash match against Pseudo Castro. If back acne can be appropriate, why aren’t time limit draws?
Let’s take a trip to Texas! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys dip their toes into the waters of World Class Championship Wrestling. Matches featuring the Great Kabuki, the Von Erich Brothers and others entertain, while Tom “Boogaloo” Shaft does not. Announcer Gene Goodson is serviceable, but wait, is that… oh no! Jose Lothario is back on our screens! Can be found on Peacock streaming or at The Rasslin Channel on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN7sfUxHF1U
