Since I'm on the road a lot with work I've had time to start getting into wrestling podcasts. I've been listening to five, my thoughts below
WHW What Happened When with Tony Schiavone. Love hearing old WCW stories, but the co host Conrad Thompson nearly completely ruins it for me. The guy is just fascinated with Tony's sex life to the point it appears he's pervertedly living vicariously through it. Weird.
Bischoff on Wrestling. Eric is a massive WWE sycophant these days. To Eric titles etc are just props and wrestling is just a soap opera. His favourite line "I... I honestly don't remember", which is always said where in hindsight WCW completely ballsed up.
MSL and Sullivan. Kevin Sullivan recaps booking decisions from 20 years prior. Really good to get an insight into his booking. He's pretty fair minded IMO.
The Jim Cornette Experience. Man, this guy is a left wing crack pot. Cornette hates on McMahon and Russo relentlessly destroying kayfabe. Is cool though to hear basic stories of how to build heat and then use that heat to get the faces a payoff.
OSW Old School Wrestling Review. The BEST podcast ever. Funny as hell. Bunch of Irish lads reviewing old wrestling, their cut ups of WWF in the 80s is magic. Strongly recommend this one.
Anyone else listened to wrasslin podcasts?
