Once again, we have reach that portion of the professional wrestling calendar when all attention turns to ladders and briefcases that are more coveted and mysterious than the one from Pulp Fiction. Who is going to damn near cripple themselves on a rather innocent looking piece of Home Depot hardware? Who will get the open contract to cash in for a championship opportunity at any time? Are they reinforcing the ring in Nawlins to accommodate Oba and Bronson? And will Roman put in the bare minimum effort or just no-sell everything and go home? We’re going to give you the answers to all of that and much more in our Money In The Bank Preview in this, episode 266, The Future Is Now… Kinda!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES!

Okay folks, I’m going to admit that this episode might hurt a little bit. No, we won’t be talking about tax codes or that time Tim slammed a delicate part of his anatomy in a car door while wearing his first and only pair of Hammer pants… we’re talking about movies. And it’s not so much the movies that are going to hurt as the time period in which those movies were released. And it’s not so much that the time period was particularly awful for movies or even very bad in the grand scheme of human existence overall. It’s just that it’s been raining all day and my joints are creaking, so I don’t need to be reminded of my age, which is why I won’t be mentioned that it’s been 32 years since all the movies we’re going to be talking about were released in this, episode 265, Movies Are Like A Box Of Chocolates – 1994 The Year In Movies!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES!

With the world in its current spiral, I think we can all agree that there’s plenty of sadness and trauma already, so we should focus on positive, uplifting things.

When it comes time to have a good ol’ fashioned argument, nothing gets the blood boiling like starting up the Greatest of All Time discussion. Fur will fly, spit will be spat, and more than likely someone is going to get into a drunken brawl on their grandmother’s front lawn with the cops getting called to eventually haul some pantless degenerate off to jail for the tenth time that year. Or, as I like to call it, Saturday at a certain HOA just outside of Chicago. At any rate, we’re going to throw out our lists and hope for the best in this, episode 262, The Pantheon of Pro Wrestling!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES!

No matter what anyone thinks, there are no guarantees as to which gimmicks in professional wrestling will get over. After all, there was at least one person who thought that the Shockmaster was gonna be dynamite or that kids would actually like the Gobbldigooker instead of running in terror from a grown man in a mutated turkey costume. But even in the rough and tumble world of wrestling, it’s not often that a gimmick will go from dumb to over to classic. So we’re going to relive one of those rare moments as we rewatch the mask versus mask match pitting dos El Grande Americanos against each other in this, episode 261, El Geno Del Absurdo (aka The Genius Of Absurdity)!   FULL VIDEO EPISODES!
