Hulk Hogan and The Giant are about to do battle in a sumo monster truck match and Gavin needs help talking about it. He doesn't need a partner. He doesn't need a friend. He needs his older BRAH-ther! Geremy Jasper (director of O'Dessa, now on Hulu!) steps into the ring as he and Gavin discuss the lowest-rated matches from In Your House 3: Triple Header, In Your House 4: Great White North, Halloween Havoc 95, Survivor Series 95, and World War 3. Topics include how awesome Bam Bam Bigelow was, Waylon Mercy's questionable fashion, giant mummies who are also giant ninjas, and how the power of friendship conquers all.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
It's another episode based around bringing in someone who doesn't watch wrestling and making them watch some weird and bad wrestling. This time the guest is Gavin's shoot job coworker Peter McNamara, who was admittedly very nervous when recording. Gavin dooms Peter by having him watch the roughest matches from King of the Ring 95, Bash at the Beach 95, In Your House 2: The Lumberjacks, SummerSlam 95, and Fall Brawl 95. In-between discussions about terrible-looking bearhugs, Peter learns -- against his will -- about the many gimmicks of Ed Leslie, why Lex Luger shows up in two different companies, and why Diesel jumping out of the ring is the most shocking moment in wrestling history.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Hey, look! RD Reynolds from WrestleCrap is here! I know, right? Makes sense, though. If you're going to talk about the worst matches from each PPV, might as well bring in an expert. Their targets this time around are the bottom of the barrel from Uncensored 95, WrestleMania XI, In Your House, Slamboree 95, and Great American Bash 95. Topics include how a one-off clown disguise allowed the Undertaker's Streak to survive, tier-ranking Hacksaw Jim Duggan's skull offense, whether or not Luther Reigns has ever eaten peas, and Gavin gets introduced to his new favorite bad wrestling match. Also, Gavin tries to explain to a confused RD Reynolds the wonders of WWF Krozor. Don't know what Krozor is? Are you sure you want to know? Then check out this week's episode!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Gavin's annoying, loud, nasally voice contrasts with the smooth, ASMR style of Chris Eckert. The plan was to discuss the lowest-rated matches from AAA When Worlds Collide, Survivor Series 94, Starrcade 94, Royal Rumble 95, and SuperBrawl 5. Too bad a technical error caused a lack of recording, so enjoy Gavin starting things off hot and really, really annoyed! Otherwise, the two discuss everything from druid mysteries to the lack of Liam Neeson in wrestling to the idea of Uncle Howdy having a Captain Planet gimmick. Also, Gavin explains how to make Andre the Giant lactate!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
From the files of Police Squad! This week, Gavin is helped out by his ever-enthusiastic buddy David Burszan. They power through the mid-90s discussing the worst hits from King of the Ring 94, Bash at the Beach 94, SummerSlam 94, Fall Brawl 94, and Halloween Havoc 94. Topics include Duckman, drag queens sitting with Muhammad Ali, and Art Donovan's commentary. At one point, David gets steamed and animated over lazy dyslexia jokes. Also, hope you like people talking about Kevin Sullivan matches because hoo boy is that on the menu!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
There's not a word yet for old friends who just met. Gavin finally gets around to talking to musician and renaissance man James Howard, a guy he's known online since 1997. Go figure. The two go through the gauntlet of the lowest-rated matches of Royal Rumble 94, SuperBrawl 4, WrestleMania X, Spring Stampede 94, and Slamboree 94. Things start out goofy as hell before grooving into some solid singles matches. Topics include real-life Virtua Fighter, Kronik Origins, Mr. Perfect's striped pajamas, Jesse "The Ponytail" Ventura, and a very Brady dark match.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Gavin hangs out with his old improv buddy Caitlin Coleman, who keeps referring to Missy Hyatt as "Misty," but Gavin doesn't have it in him to correct her. Their fodder this time around is the worst matches from Fall Brawl 93, Halloween Havoc 93, BattleBowl, Survivor Series 93, and Starrcade 93. Caitlin knows very, very little about wrestling and had no idea what she was in for, learning more than she ever wanted to know about clumsy Stormtroopers, rappers dressed as clowns, slave-owning managers, and Hulk Hogan superfans with learning disabilities. Rub a banana on your head and get to listening!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Note: There are zero matches in this episode that involve King Kong Bundy. Gavin's guest this time around is his good buddy Bob Chamberlain, who blesses the show with his chill, soothing voice. They discuss the worst matches from WrestleMania IX, Slamboree 93, King of the Ring, Beach Blast 93, and SummerSlam 93. It's bad enough that they have to watch a stiff zombie wizard fight a nudist bigfoot with little coordination, but having to watch it twice? Oof.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Golly, it's an extra episode! Iconic top wrestleguy Hulk Hogan died just a few days ago. Love him or hate him or tolerate him, one thing's for sure: he has been in some seriously terrible matches in his career. So many of his bad matches are on PPV and we'll get to them in due time, but what about the ones that you didn't have to pay good money for? The Monumental Podcast's Mongo Underscore Ebooks takes a break from being a nationally published troll and helps Gavin discuss the five lowest-rated TV matches to involve the Hulkster. Just to give you an idea, three of them end in disqualification, one ends in an especially stupid count-out, and one is a battle royal that Hogan loses despite never coming close to going over the top rope! Join the insanity as we mourn (?) the legend who helped Alf advertise Telecom's 10-10-220 service that one time.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
Gavin's guest for this week is writer Marc Quill, who helps him review some lousy matches featuring... wait, that can't be right... Two Masahiro Chono matches? The hell?

The shows for this episode include Halloween Havoc 92, Survivor Series 92, Starrcade 92, Royal Rumble 93, and SuperBrawl III.

These two are tasked with watching and discussing the worst matches from WrestleMania VIII, WrestleWar 92, Beach Blast 92, Great American Bash 92, and SummerSlam 92. Other topics include Greg Valentine's kickass WCW theme song, the utter insanity of the WrestleMania main event build in 1992, obscure SNK tag fighter Kizuna Encounter, the difficulty in making scary fat guys into underdogs, and the difficulty of having a project that you can't quite shill yet because you're still waiting for it to be formally announced.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations

Gavin gets a special visit from Sci-Fi Explosion's Chris Cummins, who doesn't know all that much about wrestling. He might not know what he's in for, as they watch and discuss the worst matches from Superbrawl, UWF Beach Brawl, Great American Bash 91, SummerSlam 91, and Halloween Havoc 91. Chris learns a lot of bizarre wrestling history as the two discuss everything from ghouls to having computers tell you how to wrestle. Chris is left confused, wondering, "Why did the Rap Master not rap?"Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/zeroes-of-wrestling/donations
