episode Noche de Los Grandes: Why We Love Wrestling cover

Description

It's a three-man booth this week as The Old Bucks and Gherkins gather in the Gorilla Room to discuss one of the most gloriously ridiculous wrestling matches in recent memory. At Noche de Los Grandes, an American Olympic wrestler pretending to be a luchador and wearing a mask faced a German wrestler pretending to be an American, who was also wearing a luchador mask. The stipulation? One of these men, both of whom we've watched wrestle without masks for years, would lose their mask and suffer the ultimate humiliation. On paper it's completely absurd. In practice? It was outstanding. The lads break down the incredible atmosphere in Mexico, the crowd's investment in the story, and why Chad Gable deserves enormous credit for helping create one of the most entertaining wrestling spectacles of the year. They discuss why the match worked so well, why lucha traditions still matter, and whether this was genuinely one of the best things WWE has produced in years. There's also time to touch on WWE Clash in Italy and some of the other major happenings across the wrestling world. Sometimes wrestling is at its best when it fully embraces how ridiculous it can be. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

episode The Biggest Overpushes in Wrestling artwork

The Biggest Overpushes in Wrestling

This week's topic comes from Wrestling Fan Wrestling Show listener Adam Redmond, who suggested a debate around one of wrestling's most divisive subjects: overpushed wrestlers. With recent discussion surrounding Cody Rhodes, Shane and Morro ask a simple question that's anything but easy to answer: what does "overpushed" actually mean? Is it someone who wins too often? A wrestler consistently placed above more deserving talent? Or is it simply a case of fan perception? As always, the parameters quickly disappear. The lads each reveal their top three most overpushed wrestlers of all time, leading to debates around names like Roman Reigns, Triple H, Kevin Nash, the McMahon family, and the role of on-screen authority figures throughout wrestling history. As you'd expect, plenty of tangents follow. This is Part 1 of a two-part discussion. Next week, the pendulum swings the other way as the lads look at the most underpushed wrestlers in wrestling history. Got a topic you'd like us to cover?

The Best and Worst Wrestling Comebacks from Retirement

Shane and Morro are back in the Gorilla Room to discuss one of wrestling's favourite traditions: coming out of retirement. Some returns have become part of wrestling folklore, giving fans moments they'll never forget. Others have left people wondering whether certain legends should have stayed away. The lads look at some of the greatest retirement comebacks of all time, including Edge's emotional Royal Rumble return, Bryan Danielson's remarkable second act, Shawn Michaels stepping back into the ring after years away, Ric Flair's many retirements, and CM Punk's long-awaited return to professional wrestling. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
