Wow, that's a lot of matches, no wonder you guys hated sitting through this show.

[Hacksaw Jim Powers]

I watched it because I'm insane and figured I should watch for the history of the thing, and.......yeah. Damn. Crazy that the WWF had Savage/Steamboat only three years later.

Interesting review idea for next week.

I'm not sure how productive it is to review a videogame 6 weeks after release because there are a bunch of sites/publications solely dedicated to much more immediate reaction but looking forward to seeing what two guys who don't consider themselves even casual gamers think of it. I'm also intrigued about the potential video component of a review, maybe you guys can play as yourselves.

Video is always good, in the case of the RaW hosts.

[The Best There Is]

John was probably just joking during the discussion on Asian wrestler names, but Lee Wong (from Hong Kong) was in fact an actual wrestler.

Wai's WWE Name:

Pots N. Pans Cymbalcrash(??) (From "The Orient")

I know, terrible...

[Jason X]

Excellent Review. Interesting insight into the workings of wrestling and past v. present

John explaining one of the reasons The Hulkster didn't usually go on last back in the day was great.

[Brandon905]

Is there a current list of Putski Award winners anywhere?

[bitetheasp]

Wai Po Foo!

[Louis from Montréal]

For those who missed it. You know Sheikie baby loved it!

[Jay Hunter]

Just listening to this now. John's impression of Back Yard Wrestlers from 1984 "holy shit, adbominal stretches!" cracked me up
