We’ve posted our appearance bond! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys put a cap on the 1996 run of the Ultimate Warrior, and once that’s out of the way, Raw gets pretty damn good! Savio Vega, Justin ‘Hawk’ Bradshaw and the Godwinns all have great matches that are rivaled by the promos cut by Shawn Michaels, Ahmed Johnson, and a mysterious “third man” that we get introduced to. Hell is about to be unleashed, who would have thought that hell could hide behind Ahmed Johnson?

Adios, Mr. 500, don’t let the door hit you on the way out! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys sit down to talk about a very special episode of Monday Night Raw. Vince McMahon is at the top of his game here, calling matches featuring Shawn Michaels, Mankind, and Goldust. Ryan has an especially satisfying Jobber of the Week segment, Jason gets to take us back in time for a house show, and Joe’s news features some pretty important revelations about the future. Pause it on the hair flip!

What’s better to hear: that Stone Cold and the Undertaker are main eventing this show, or that Todd Pettingzoo had kidney stones? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get some pretty strong examples of what can make for good wrasslin’- Ahmed Johnson takes on Goldust, the Mankind story maintains its pace, and Brian Pillman’s promo content was certainly unexpected. Sunny, Cloudy, and the rest of the Tag Team Division remain lowlights for all. Wait, what did that crowd sign say?

The first thing I want to happen, is to get Jake Roberts off of our TV screens! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get treated to the iconic 1996 King of the Ring. While there are duds involving the Ultimate Warrior and Vader, some shining examples come through with Steve Austin and Goldust. The British Bulldog gets some redemption in his rematch with Shawn Michaels, and Mankind and the Undertaker go one-on-one for the first time. What could go wrong with having two referees?

Expect the unexpected! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys examine the go-home episode of Monday Night Raw that leads into the 1996 King of the Ring. There’s another great match between Savio Vega and Stone Cold Steve Austin, another less-than-stellar match featuring the “Mildman” Marc Mero, more bullshit surrounding Jake “The Snake” Roberts, and a crowd-pleasing repeat of that time Ahmed Johnson blasted a pink-shirted jobber through a door. Expect the unexpected!

Hey cool, the Ultimate Warrior is wearing a hat! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys take a look at a very weird episode of Monday Night Raw, with matches featuring Owen Hart, Marc Mero, the British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith, and many more. Skip does the best work he can, and the bookers do the best they can to heat up interest for the upcoming Championship rematch between the Bulldog and Shawn Michaels. There’s nothing out of the ordinary about a hat, right guys? Right?

That’s right kids, it’s Christmas, and Santa’s here to bring you a break from the Ultimate Warrior! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys sit down and reveal what Xanta Klaus brought them, as well as their Mt. Crushmores (as is tradition). So sit down, pour a drink, and have a taste of nostalgia. Wrasslin’ Raw will take next week off to travel and celebrate the holiday, so we will see you in the New Year!

You mean to tell me that Techno Team 2000 is still around? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys start to delve into the 1996 King of the Ring’s buildup. Stone Cold Steve Austin, now free of the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase, takes on Bob Holly in a qualifier; Mankind takes on Barry Horowitz, and we get treated to a Jim Ross interview afterwards. Sunny does some talking for us, and Hunter Hearst Helmsley does some jobbing. We’re taking applications for a new manager, email us today!

What’s more surprising: that the Ultimate Warrior actually had another match with Goldust, or that it lasted longer than two minutes? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys examine the Monday Night Raw that fell between both nights of the In Your House 8: Beware of Dog Pay Per View. With matches featuring Vader, Ahmed Johnson, the Smoking Gunns, and the Bodydonnas, this Raw does a fair job. But there’s no time for this- we need mouth to mouth!

WWE: In Your House 8 - Beware of Dog

2021/12/06

Will someone PLEASE shut that woman up? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys bear witness to the mess that was In Your House 8: Beware of Dog. From the get-go, it seems like this Pay Per view was cursed- matches like Shawn Michaels and the British Bulldog fail to deliver, matches like Vader and Yokozuna live up to expectations, and the much-talked-about Caribbean Strap Match falls somewhere in between. On a high note, Marlena’s popping will have you popping your ass off!

Only the Undertaker can cut a great promo laying down! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys take a look at the go-home Monday Night Raw leading into In Your House 8: Beware of Dog. A confusing run-in from Savio Vega, an amazing promo situation from the Undertaker, a poor match for the British Bulldog, and an increase in Marc Mero’s match quality are all points of interest in this episode. Joe has the real scoop though, so make sure to power through to Joe’s news segment!

How many Jobber of the Week candidates can they fit into one Monday Night Raw? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys bear witness to one poor match after another, with the Bodydonnas, Duke the Dumpster Droese, and Aldo Montoya all present and all contending to be Ryan’s Jobber. This was balanced out with fantastic interviews with the Undertaker and Goldust, and an excellent match between Shawn Michaels and Hunter Hearst Helmsley. BUT WAS THAT SKIP, OR WAS IT ZIP?

Holy shit, it’s Techno Team 2000! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get to watch one of the least highlighted and least talented tag teams ever, Techno Team 2000, take on the Bodydonnas- and more importantly, Sunny! The British Bulldog has a go with Make a Difference Fatu (featuring Fatu’s… family?) The Undertaker goes one-on-one with Owen Hart, and the Wildman Marc Mero makes yet another appearance behind Sable. Good news everyone- Fatu’s dance button works again!

He’s a FORNICATOR! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys are treated to another strong episode. Bart Gunn shines in his match with Mankind, but Mankind manages to steal the entire show with his match and promos. Stone Cold Steve Austin and Savio Vega keep their feud going with the Caribbean Strap Match challenge, and the Ultimate Warrior… Well, at least the Warrior showed up. Shawn Michaels gets a great jab in, but Jim Cornette steals the show- DEFLOWERER!

WWE: In Your House 7 - Good Friends, Better Enemies

Earl Hebner finally got what was coming to him! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys experience the first In Your House Pay Per View to have an official title: Good Friends, Better Enemies. Shawn Michaels and Diesel show up for a Match of the Year Candidate, the crowd showed up to chant slurs, and Razor Ramon showed up to get his ass kicked on his way out the door. The Ultimate Warrior delivers approximately nothing- but it’s always great to see Mantaur get some Pay Per View time!

THE EPIGLOTTIS! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get a truly underwhelming Pay Per View go-home show. With the exception of Goldust and Savio Vega competing for the Intercontinental title, matches with the Godwinns and Make a Difference Fatu both fall flat. Mankind has a good match, but why is Aldo Montoya still getting pyro? Why is Brett Hart strutting through Germany? There are a lot of questions in this episode, but hey, Ryan gets to highlight a fantastic Jobber of the Week!

Leif Cassidy is just a dorky, goofy, moronic, dorkish goofball moron! In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get treated to the ongoing burial of Al Snow in his most recent gimmick, a barnburner of a match between Stone Cold Steve Austin and Bart Gunn, and a fantastic match between Savio Vega and Goldust. Bret “the Hitman” Hart cuts a promo that is gut-wrenching in its honesty, and Gorilla Monsoon comes out to fuck things up again- if only we could just pretend like it never happened!

It’s official, folks, Yokozuna needs a forklift. In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys get into a strange episode that puts an end to the recent run of quality Monday Night Raws. Yokozuna and Vader get into a slobberknocker, Hunter Hearst Helmsley continues to prove his skill while Duke “The Dumpster” Droese continues to prove his lack thereof, and Owen Hart provides some much-needed entertainment. Ahmed Johnson is covered in oil, and it’s just not fair!

Who wants to apply a double ass-slap to these Slammy Award-winning buns? In this episode of Wrasslin’ Raw, the boys watch one of the most anticipated events so far: the in-ring debut of Mankind, and the beginnings of one of the best feuds to ever grace a squared circle. We also witness the debut of Sable, Mark Mero’s immediate burial, and Shawn Michaels holding Vince McMahon in an abusive relationship. Finally, in a shocking turn of events, it’s revealed that there are tag teams in the WWF!
