Dorkside of the Ring

The show where your nerdy obsession with Professional Wrestling is not only tolerated... it is celebrated! Every week Mat and Adam take a brief look at the history of Pro Wrestling of the day. From there we take a few minutes to review a retro WWE Raw or Smackdown from this week 24 years ago and then finish with The Wrestling Stu. Think of it as a catch all to cover what is going on all across the landscape of the sport from the previous week, or just random life events that need to be shared with

#171- Here Comes The Money (In The Bank)

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/07/06

Back to our regularly scheduled programing this week! Big thanks to Casey Corbin for chatting last week. We take a look at the recent Money in the Bank show that the WWE presented from London. It was very good. We also touch on all of the AEW offerings. I can't believe they have three weekly shows now. Slim pickings in the figure news department, but that should heat up soon as SDCC is at the end of the month. We are officially on the road to SummerSlam in Detroit and we can't wait to

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/06/22

Buckle up, folks as we have a bit of a long show this week, but I promise it is worth the listen. We get side tracked from time to time, but that's what makes the show fun, right? The Retro Raw was the go home show to KOTR '99 and there are some stipulations at stake in this one and it's a fun watch. We have a real mixed bag as we go "Into the Dorkness" with all sorts of figure news and a 1 of 1 card that has made its way into Matty's collection! From there we run down all

#166- A Bountiful Weekend From the Wrestling Gods!

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/06/01

This week on the show we do our best to recap a very busy weekend in the world of professional wrestling. All three major brands presented a big show with Double or Nothing, Night of Champions & Battleground. I think they all delivered and I'd love to hear what you all thought about them. As we step back in time for the Retro Raw Review, we are headed toward KOTR '99, but first we have a "Greater Power" that must be revealed. Will we see it this week? Listen to find out! Thank

#165- Raw is Owen: 24 Years Later

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/05/25

This week on the show we toe the line between comedy &tragedy. A very somber Retro Raw in which we celebrate the life of Owen Hart 24 years after his untimely passing takes up the bulk of the show with good reason. We cover the matches a bit, but most of the time is spent listening to clips of the guys that worked with and loved Owen. From there we have a bit of figure news, but nothing substantial before chatting about RAW, AEW, WWE Hidden Treasures and all sorts of other goodness in the Stu

#164- Are We Cancelled?

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/05/18

This week on the show we are definitely in rare form. It was a fun one, albeit a bit morbid, but laughter is a great way to deal with heavy shit. We hit on all of the normal segments as the Retro Raw keeps trucking toward Over the Edge, which was the scene of Owen Harts untimely passing. We will cover that as well as the Raw after next week. We also talked about the big heel turn on Dynamite, a lucha deathmatch and a whole lot more! Cheers!

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/04/20

This week on the show we looked at the 4/19/99 episode of Monday Night Raw. The Rock was planning a funeral for Stone Cold Steve Austin after tossing him (and his title belt?) off a Detroit bridge. Austin had other plans. How many vehicles does this man know how to operate? From there we had a bunch of figure news tidbits from all over the place before jumping into The Stu where we spent the bulk of that segment recapping ACW Wisconsin’s Water City Wrestling Con. It was so much fun, and we are

#158- Cody Comes Up Short: WrestleMania Reaction!

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/04/06

This week on the show we have a ton of stuff to cover, including the two night WrestleMania extravaganza! Both nights were very good, with N1 edging out N2 in our opinion slightly. We also discuss the plethora of Mattel reveals that took place over the weekend. They are knocking it out of the park recently with these things. We saw so many cool things. We also hit on ROH Supercard of Honor, some GCW and more. Enjoy!

Dorkside of the Ring ·

2023/03/30

This week on the show we kick things off with a very diverse bit of wrestling history before checking out the Monday Night Raw that was held the day after WrestleMania 15. The landscape has definitely changed a bit. The Big Show has already turned face, Chyna & HHH have joined The Corporation, and The Undertaker has set his sights on one Stephanie McMahon. From there, we chat about the recently announced Mattel WCW Nitro stage crowdfunding project and give a run down of the WrestleMania 39 card

2023/03/09

On this week’s giant sized episode we take a look at a pretty good Retro Raw (that included possibly the best “Sign of the Times” we have come across yet, but the bulk of the show is spent recounting the weekend in San Francisco. Sadly, due to Covid, Adam was forced to miss the trip. Mat pressed on solo but met up with some new and old friends and still had a memorable experience. The travel, West Coast Pro, WWW live, and AEW Revolution is all covered, and I hope you enjoy the chat. Cheers!

This week on the show we take a look at a very entertaining Retro Raw as we rundown the 2/22/99 episode that featured the first ever Inferno Match on television. The evil Mr. McMahon was even ringside to see The Undertaker go head to head with Kane, but a surprise delivery caught him way off guard.
