Episode 61 - Mae Young Gives Birth

The Dork Side of The Ring Podcast

The year is 2000 and the world of media and content continue to push the boundaries of what is and what isn't acceptable for television. As Jerry Springer looks after the well being of day time television, WWF and WCW saw to prime time. Though as WCW reined in its content under the eyes of multiple mergers, WWF continued to push and push, including multiple sexualized characters, but none more outrageous than 77 year old Mae Young, who would became a hit with the crowd as she became more and more unhinged. Going into the year 200, Mae Young conquered the libido and heart of Sexual Chocolate Mark Henry and what followed became one of the more ridiculous stories in wrestling history.
Twitch.tv's Citra (@citra_live) and Slay3K (@Slay3K) join the pod to watch the journey of love between Mae Young and Mark Henry, including the first time they appeared as a couple, a double date with Harvey Whippleman and The Fabulous Moolah, a Valentine's Date, the 2000 Miss Rumble results, and her eventual pregnancy. We also cover the olden days of MTV, where MTV is now, DCMAs, and just how far wrestling went during the Attitude Era
