Episode 9: Wrestlers In Adverts, Mug Shot Game Redux & Dynamite Kid vs Tiger Mask… Sort Of

James, Christian and Phil finally get around to watching 15 adverts with wrestlers in them and voting on the best, the mug shot game redux, The Shockmaster redux and Dynamite Kid vs Tiger Mask, which was derailed when Phil found out that Gary Coleman was dead and also 17 years old when Diff’rent Strokes wrapped. Also on the show is Phil’s hatred of mumble rap, the world’s worst burglar, the world’s worst room mate and oh so much more!

Episode 3: Bret Hart vs Yokozuna & Bret Hart vs Hulk Hogan

The non-wrestling fans James, Christian and Phil attempt to dive into the contentious relationship between Bret Hart and Hulk Hogan through two of their relatively rare on-screen interactions.  The boys watch Bret Hart vs Yokozuna from WWF WrestleMania IX, which ended up in a fiasco thanks to Hulk Hogan.  James also reads extracts from Bret Hart’s book and Hulk Hogan’s website that both address the backstage fallout between the two after WrestleMania IX, with Vince McMahon manipulating the storylines and the wrestlers, too.

The non-fans also watch Bret Hart vs Hollywood Hulk Hogan from WCW Nitro #159, which ends up in an even BIGGER fiasco, with ridiculous-looking stepover toe holds and a finish which leaves everybody watching baffled as to anyone’s motivations.
