Episode XLVI: SummerSlam 1999

The Conquistabores ·

2022/01/30

Its a new year, which means a new episode just squeaking in before the end of the month. And we start off by taking a look at a show from the Attitude Era with SummerSlam 1999; Euan, Cam, Phil and Geordie Al have a great old chat about the good and the bad of this show, and there is some good and some very bad in this one. But forget all that, just make sure you listen to Phil redeeming himself after his abject collapse in the Christmas Quiz in a way no one would have expected! As usual make sure to

The LIVE Christmas Eve Quiz!

The Conquistabores ·

2021/12/24

That's right! As is now tradition was have a LIVE CHRISTMAS EVE TREAT FOR YOU! Thats right, this year we have a quiz straight from the pen of Hot Sauce Geordie Alan! And because its being broadcast live, honest, we have no clue whats going to happen! I mean, Phil could have an existential breakdown and forget what wrestling even is! Euan could reveal hitherto unknown levels of knowledge about an annual wrestling event! And Cam could, I don't know, answer a question or something. All we know is that

Episode XLV: Best Short Lived Gimmick

The Conquistabores ·

2021/11/07

So we come to another Round Table Episode as The Conquistabores comes together to discuss the Best Short Lived Wrestling Gimmicks! And what a spread we have, a veritable smorgasbord of delectable treats from the early 90s to the 10s and all sorts in between. Are any of them actually good gimmicks, or terrible ideas that were quickly flushed down the lav? Well, not going to spoil anything but you can probably guess that the flushed to good ratio is pretty high. But find out for sure you'd better

Episode XLIV: Starrcade BattleBowl 1992

The Conquistabores ·

2021/10/03

The Conquistabores are nothing if not tenacious and part of that is the dream that we will, one day, find a really good WCW pay per view. I mean, they must be out there right? The company lasted for ages so people liked it so they must have put on at least one really good show, right? Keep this in mind as you listen to this new episode which is on WCW Starrcade 1992 Battlebowl The Lethal Lottery II. Yes, there’s a lot to unpack there but, spoilers, we only have one ring so things might not be that

Episode XLIII: WrestleMania IV

The Conquistabores ·

2021/08/01

It's been a long walk down a rainy beach to get to this episode; not for technical reasons more a combination of Phil's birthday, two broken fridges a heatwave making podcast editing a low priority item for a wee while. But sorted now and that long walk down a rainy beach is sure to end up somewhere fun as we're talking about WrestleMania IV! Yep, the one before V (obvs) which means its Officially Tournament Time! Stop that moaning at the back! It's not The Wresting Classic (at least not quite) so

Episode XLII: Spring Stampede 1999

The Conquistabores ·

2021/06/14

Technical issues? Still there, a little. Al on the show? Nope, because it's late 90s WCW which means he'd need to watch it. Excellent Conquista-chat? Well, I'm not sure if it's excellent but it's still pretty good! Euan, Cam and Phil return to the WCW well yet again to try and find that elusive really good WCW PPV. Is this the one? Well, it has one ring which is a good start but the card does have Disco Inferno on it so you'll have to listen to the show to get the final word on this one. The show

Episode XLI: Money In The Bank 2011

The Conquistabores ·

2021/05/02

Oh good Lord, was this a show. Not necessarily for the content, which I'm sure is as good as always, but more for the rampant technical issues. Discord fell over mid record, Skype issues, all sorts which all made for a fun edit for Phil. But've still got a show out of it, and it's about a cracker of a PPV in the shape of Money in The Bank 2011 Well, it has a cracker of a main event but we'll get to that in the show. So join Euan, Cam, Phil and Geordie Al who duck and dive and generally batter their

Episode XL: The Best Music Per Decade

The Conquistabores ·

2021/04/04

It's time for a chat about wrestling! And what with it being Easter what better time than to discuss the Best Entrance Music For Each Decade! Not every decade, like from the 80s because (as we all know) there was no wrestling before Hulk Hogan. At least thats what Al keeps telling us so it must be true, he wouldn't lie. Anyways, he turns up for most of this podcast to join Euan, Cam and Phil to chat about their favourite music and what they think defined each decade. And we might even get a bit of

Episode XXXIX: NXT TakeOver Brooklyn

The Conquistabores ·

2021/03/01

It's time again for a very special podcast and this isn't the usual Phil trying to think of something to write for the podcast description kind of hyperbole, nope we mean actual special because this week we have a very special guest in the shape of The Franchise Player of Target Wrestling, Shady Nattrass! Thats right, we have an actual wrestler on our show, someone who actually knows what he's talking about! And he's here to talk about NXT TakeOver Brooklyn with Cam, Euan and Phil. But you can just

Episode XXXVIII: Survivor Series 1988

The Conquistabores ·

2021/02/01

It's a New Year which means it's time for a new podcast! Yep, the streak continues as the four Conquistabores come together as a team of four striving to survive as they discuss Survivor Series 1988! Yep, it's the one with the big daft tag team survivor series match with a reinforced ring and everything. Cam, Euan, Phil and Al are all primed and ready to discuss a prime slice of 80s WWF nostalgia. How prime? Very prime, we're talking Macho Man with a cape and everything. Proper 80s! Remember to

Prime Time Conquistabores: The LIVE Christmas Eve...

The Conquistabores ·

2020/12/24

That's right! As a Christmas treat were recording a live podcast on Christmas Eve, honest. This episode we're chatting about a very special topic, a listener suggested episode! Yep, its an episode of WWF Prime Time Wrestling from Christmas Eve 1990! Yep, it's 30 years old so there's no better time for us to do our very first LIVE special which is definitely not pre-recorded or anything like that at all. Defo not. Properly LIVE, honest.If you want to see how more of our content is created then keep

Episode XXXVII: TNA Weekly PPV #1

The Conquistabores ·

2020/12/06

We're back after a month off for no real reason to hit you with quite a swerve; this week we're doing a non-WWF/WCW pay per view and Al has even turned up! Yep, we're doing our first TNA PPV so why not make it the very first of their PPVs? Yep, right back at the beginning before the 8 sided ring, before they were on TV, back when they were running weekly PPVs. This show we get the first NWA/TNA Champion crowned and...other stuff. Join Euan, Cam, Phil and the aforementioned Geordie Al and they

Episode XXXVI: WrestleMania VII

The Conquistabores ·

2020/10/11

A little bit late, but not as late as previous years so thats one thing! This week we've gone back to the only pay per view where you can enjoy some nuclear heat that can only be achieved by having a heel champion siding with a country being invaded by another; thats right, it's WrestleMania VII! It's a stacked card, God help us, but Cam Euan Phil and Geordie Al are here to batter their way through it and find some of the gold within. Is there gold? Maybe. Yes. Yes, there is some.

Episode XXXV: Starrcade 1990

The Conquistabores ·

2020/09/06

We're back and we're still in the early 90s and we're still at WCW! No, seriously, we are and it's Geordie Al's pick no less! Which obviously means its time for a Tournament of some sort which we get on Starrcade 1990! And it's an international tournament as well, no less! Is that a good thing? Not sure, but we'll see. No Euan this show I'm afraid due to technical issues but it's still a great triple threat of a show with Cam, Phil and Al. Remember to search for us on Facebook and Twitter and most

Episode XXXIV: What We Hate/Love About Pro Wrestling

The Conquistabores ·

2020/08/09

It's roundtable time! And in typical Conquistabores fashion, its another daft one; this time we're talking about the things WE love about wrestling and YOU hate and what YOU hate and WE love. Make sense? Excellent. Sure it does. Honestly though, it does and also contained one of the most tangenty tangents in the history of the show, not even kidding. Seriously, it's a doozy.

The streak continues! And just in time for the summer holidays The Conquistabores are hitting the beach with WCW! And then we're staying at home because there's a global pandemic and America is like, an open petri dish of infection right about now so no way we're going to the Gulf Coast of all places. Anyways, we've watched Beach Blast 1992 and we're here to talk about it making sure no one goes off the top rope because it's not allowed! Remember to search for us on Facebook and Twitter and most

Episode XXXII: The Wrestling Classic

The Conquistabores ·

2020/06/07

Another month another episode! Who would have thought that? Certainly not us and certainly not my laptop which is soon to be retired. In the mean time, this week we've reached back into the past once more to check out The WWF Wrestling Classic which is the first (kind of) Pay Per View they ever held. Witness this astounding 16 man elimination tournament as they look to win...the honour of winning the tournament? That'll due. It's a full house of Conquistabores so you know it's going to be a good

As Private Hudson would say stop your grinnin and drop your linen because the Conquistabores are BACK. Thats right, three episodes in three months like we have a schedule or something. But do you want us to be back when we're discussing WCW Greed, the last ever WCW pay per view. Is it as bad as that sentence makes it sound? Well, will soon find out and even Geordie Al has turned up to find out as well! Remember to search for us on Facebook and Twitter and most other place, but also leave us reviews

Yes, we have a new episode out! Yes, that quickly! Yes, it did take a global pandemic to get us to record but thats by the by. It's a new podcast! With all kinds of chat about Royal Rumble 2000, the one where Triple H gets ran right through the Cactus Jack grinder to help turn him into a proper main event star. There's also the small matter of a Royal Rumble and the debut of an ECW Legend, so all kids of stuff to have a proper chat about whilst in social isolation! Remember to search for us on

Oh my gorsh, is it a new quarter already? It must mean that The Conquistabores is back and ready for that sweet sweet wrestling chat! And chat we do, this time determining who we think is The Greatest Women's Wrestler...In Ten Years Time! We explain on the show but it's hard to figure out who was the best given how restricted women wrestlers were in the darkest days of the Divas era so we thought why not crack out our crystal boys and see who we will be the greatest in this new era of women's
