In this Dailycast episode of Wrestling Coast to Coast, Chris Maitland and Justin McClelland answer the long asked question - what happens if a wrestling promotion presents a TV program with no stakes, barely any sense of continuity, and almost zero follow-up to any occasional scrap of an angle that might get tossed the viewer's way? You get 1 Fall Wrestling, the single blandest wrestling promotion to enter the hallowed pantheon of Wrestling Coast to Coast coverage. There's a minor feud between Adam Priest and Smart Mark Sterling, Carli Bravo and the Frat House team up against the Aura after Bravo's partner was apparently taken out of action (off screen), and Billy Gunn is teaming with the tag champs for unknown reasons. The show might be bland, but we promise our critique of it certainly is not! For VIP listeners, we take a much needed reprieve to our beloved Wrestling Open for a match with real back story and stakes - Love Doug's fabled mullet is on the line against Julio Cruz's beautiful coif when Big Business battles Brick City in hair vs hair.

In this PWTorch Dailycast series titled "Worse or Better," Josh White and a guest discuss one aspect of today's pro wrestling scene and compare it to previous eras and decide if today is... worse or better. Josh struggled to think of any tag teams prior to the 1980s, so he and Chris Lansdell started their discussion with tag teams through the eighties and their signature maneuvers. They moved into the Monday Night Wars era, where tag teams played an important role on the card while innovations developed in the ring. Chris and Josh moved into the modern era as moves became more intricate and convoluted before deciding whether the current state of tag team moves is worse or better.

In this PWTorch Dailycast series titled "Worse or Better," Josh White and a guest discuss one aspect of today's pro wrestling scene and compare it to previous eras and decide if today is... worse or better. This week, Josh and Chris Lansdell started out by establishing when it's okay for someone to kick out after a finishing move. They took a historical look at the protection of finishers and some early notable kickouts. Chris and Josh moved into the Attitude Era and the early 2000s as kicking out of finishers became more common. As the discussion moved into the modern day, Josh and Chris considered some current finishers that have been protected before determining whether the state of finisher kickouts is worse or better than it has ever been.
