Legendary Wrestling Obsession

It's the 15th edition of the landmark series that cemented the WWF into our 80's memories! Saturday Night's Main Event XV. The show is the first with Hogan NOT as the champion and builds the feuds towards the massive WrestleMania IV Tournament to crown a new WWF Champion. Valentine and Beefcake finally take the national stage and two of the best to ever lace up the boots go head to head when the Million Dollar Man and his hired goons take on the Macho Man. An unexpected table spot will be the lasting memory of this card as the King Harley Race takes on a beltless Hulk Hogan. We have some fun talking wrestling toys and the movie Fletch makes a strange contribution to the show.

The main event is a 6-man cage match Jimmy Hart leads his IC champ the Honkytonk Man with the Hart Foundation against the Macho Man & reigning tag team champions Strike Force. There's some other fun matches as well. We cover the happenings for Geoff's Winnipeg Fringe play and wrap the show up with some thoughts on the passing of Hulk Hogan.

The fallout from "The Main Event" continues as Heenan is finally off of his gag order but Jack Tunney has an announcement on the investigation into the controversy of the DiBiase title win. We talk the WrestleMania IV Tournament Bracket some what ifs and of course the alternate bracket that was initially announced. The Bulldogs take on Race and Hercules & some odd teams square off at MSG with Bundy and Reed battling Muraco & the Ultimate Warrior. The mailbag returns and we check in on how the Macho MANitoban is doing with his show prep.

In another Patreon exclusive we dive deep into the 1986 feud between Mr Wonderful and Hulk Hogan. A feud so big it required it's own special show. This release is a mixture of original recordings - our Pilot episode in fact along with additional new segments to bolster the presentation. If you were watching wrestling back then you know all too well how big this moment and feud were.

It's a brief but glorious time, the day after the largest television audience took in "The Main Event" controversial new champion Ted DiBiase is in action. We take in an epic tag match from the Spectrum as WWF Champ DiBiase and Andre (pre-Mega Bucks) take on former champ Hulk Hogan and Bam Bam Bigelow. We track the early info for the upcoming WrestleMania IV card, the Bulldogs look for revenge against the Islanders, the Ultimate Warrior begins his ascent to the top of the card, and we even talk a bit about Hogan's Mystery belt along with Geoff's own belt acquisition. All on the road to get us to the March 1988 Saturday Night's Main Event and an infamous table spot.

The podcast is back after a long break. This episode is the follow up to our last show completing the look at the transition from the Fabulous Ones to the Midnight Express. The show includes our first look at Memphis, one of the greatest comedy spots in the history of wrestling, an iconic Fabs vs R n R Express match and look back to the AWA and a match with Jesse Ventura as an opponent. This content was recorded in February and thus has some references that may seem out of place for a new show.

Part 1 features a Stan Lane vs Steve Keirn match from Georgia, Lane and Eaton clash as the Fabs take on Bobby and Koko and we get a look at the Midnight Express as they cross paths with the likes of Magnum TA, Duggan and of course the infamous feud between the Fabs and the Road Warriors.
