Bonus Episode 6 - A Duke in Disguise

The NXT Wrestling Fan ·

2021/03/20

Bob's fourth roundup of points meant that they had to think about what would win Miles back after the wintery embrace of Ice Planet Barbarians. Bob decided to reach for one of Cat Sebastian's newest books, A Duke in Disguise, and Miles gets to reap the benefits of this radically political and brilliantly crafted romance. Along the way we explore: Bob's essay on romance and politics Seditious pamphlets! A gentle sadboi Regency bondage play Miles' Sex Advice (TM) Feminist critiques of Ozymandias

2021/02/06

The NXT Wrestling Fan has officially hit the forties, but we're still very much in our primes! Not sure we can say the same for whoever decided to have Emma announce that she had "some things to say to Paige," "next week," even though next week is NXT Arrival and Emma never actually does say any of those things, but that's not important right now. What is important is that next week is NXT Arrival, and we're covering the go-home show that originally aired on February 19th, 2014! Highlights include:

39 - I Won At F*cking

The NXT Wrestling Fan ·

2021/01/23

It's Episode #39, and Miles and MeganBob are back to talk about a show with lots of talking, namely, the episode of NXT that originally aired on February 12th, 2014. Seriously, the main event is a promo. Also in this episode: Sami Zayn and Cesaro are characters in a romance novel. Like, textually. WWE isn't quite okay with acknowledging that other wrestling promotions exist yet, but it's close CJ Parker turns heel, starts hating the audience for not caring enough about the planet, and wins our

2021/01/09

The world is slightly crazy right now, but if you're anything like us, you could probably do with a break from doomscrolling! Allow us to assist you in that endeavor via Episode #38, in which we have lots to say about the episode of NXT that originally aired on February 5th, 2014, including: The material makeup of Corey Graves' perineum, because that is what we do here Sylveter LeFort is basically Gil from The Simpsons Everybody loves ladders Tyson Kidd is extremely good at doing the wrestles Odd

That's right, we're talking about the the utterly brilliant FX/Hulu show What We Do In The Shadows, specifically the first two episodes, "Pilot" and "City Council."

The NXT Wrestling Fan ·

2020/12/26

The show doesn't typically go over an hour unless we have a guest on, but here we are! There's a ton going on here in Episode #37, which is appropriate, because there's a ton going on in the episode of NXT that originally aired on January 29th, 2014. Some of these extremely going-on things include: Serious Bo Dallas is kind of terrifying Corey Graves is back, and in a higher tax bracket The friendship between Enzo and Cass is wholesome and pure and incredibly stupid Sylvester LeFort and the

Episode #36 is a special one, as Miles and Bob are joined by a true titan of podcasting, a stalwart defender of pro wrestling, and just an overall awesome person. Hub from Titan Up The Defense is here to help us cover the episode of NXT that originally aired on January 22nd, 2014. Highlights include: Hub's roundabout journey to pro wrestling via the winding road of trading cards and Tito Santana CJ Parker is basically Speedball from the New Warriors but inexplicably named after Pamela Anderson's

Miles wasn't wild about the second book in the Ruby Dixon authored Ice Planet Barbarians series, Barbarian Alien, so MeganBob rounded up a few friends and dove in to give it the thorough working over it so richly deserves. Joining MeganBob on this ride to find out why we resonate for these delicious books are Marissa Bond, David Waters, and Josh Vaske-Huff.

2020/11/28

The NXT Wrestling Fan has reached a truly presidential number of episodes, and the episode of NXT that originally aired on January 15th, 2014 is like the United States presidency in that they are both totally devoid of women. We get revenge on Y chromosomes everywhere by taking another deep dive into the history of women's wrestling, this time covering the story of Alundra Blayze/Madusa. Other things covered on this episode include: An absolute banger of a match from Adrian Neville and Tyler

Bonus Episode 4 - Ice Planet Barbarians

The NXT Wrestling Fan ·

2020/11/25

Bob's third slew of points resulted in pushing Miles further into the waters of romance than perhaps anyone was ever meant to tread as we read Ice Planet Barbarians by Ruby Dixon. Bob loves it, Miles tolerates it, and we learn a lot about ourselves along the way. Also in this episode: Georgie is a gender neutral name World-building-palooza Sexy alien design Every romance hero wants to punch your ex-bf Shaky symbiote science Fun with pronouncing cool sci-fi names Miles' feelings on Barbarian Alien

2020/11/14

So, here's the thing. The episode of NXT that originally aired on January 8th, 2014 is...not good. Probably the worst one so far. But are we going to let that ruin Episode #34? Hell no! There are all kinds of highlights in this one, including: Alex Riley's three rules for life, none of which is "know the names of wrestling moves" The growth and development of Bayley Tyler Breeze is a terrible improv partner This is why we don't do tornado matches The thing where you show the audience your

2020/10/31

It's a momentous day here at The NXT Wrestling Fan! (Not just because it's Halloween, but also definitely because it's Halloween.) It took more than a year, but at long last, we are finally covering the episode of NXT that originally aired on January 1st, 2014. Which means that if you want to, you can watch the show along with us without subscribing to WWE Network and giving money to Vince McMahon. Now all you have to do is subscribe to Hulu! And, you know, give money to Disney. But let's be honest

The NXT Wrestling Fan ·

2020/10/17

Christmas seems to come earlier every year. Or in the case of the episode of NXT that originally aired on December 25th, 2013, we suppose it arrives quite late indeed. The arrival of the 2013 NXT clipshow is worth the wait though as it contains great clips of our faves, some wrestlers we never got to meet, and one of the most incredible matches we've ever watched. Come for the supercut of Sami Zayn and Cesaro fighting, stay for the soulful finale to Wiliam Regal's in-ring career. Also on this

The NXT Wrestling Fan is officially in its 30s, and while Miles and Bob agree that's generally a good thing, the episode of NXT that originally aired on December 11th, 2013 is...not great. However, we had no intention of letting a somewhat mediocre piece of television dampen our spirits for Episode #30, which includes: Ceaseless dunking on Alex Riley, which he absolutely deserves Seriously though, what's going on with this tag team division The delightful friendship of Bayley and Natalya The many

These days, a lot of us here in the United States are in the market for a new country, and Canada is the classic option for would-be American expatriates. Unfortunately, for obvious and very sane reasons, that's not currently an option. So, in honor of the 29 members of the U.S. Congress who recently asked Canada to reconsider opening the border, we're proud to bring you Episode #29, covering the NXT episode that originally aired on December 4th, 2013, so you too can experience Canada vicariously
