Episode 80 - Fish Market Street Fight Match
Manage episode 357121176 series 2947685
The year is 2008 and wrestling is about to hit its peak in terms of brutal watching, but not quite there yet. As the end of the decade approaches, WWE was firmly cemented as teh top company in America, leaving the independents wide open, but in between was TNA, who in 6 years became arguably the top alternative to WWE. Led by a blend of realistic storylines, booking out of 1983 Memphis, and a wacky cast of characters, TNA had distinguished itself from WWE. Especially when you had a storyline of a hall of fame tag team trying to make weight as they went against some of the X-Division's most out there tag team: Shark Boy, full on Stone Cold parody, and Curry Man.
Twitch.tv's Jhonner1223 (@Jhonner5) and Close personal Friend Chet Ripley come on to watch the podcast, talk about parodies, Tropic Thunder and so much more.
