Over the Edge 1998 Review | Stone Cold vs Dude Love...

New to Wrestling Podcast ·

2026/02/26

Viewer discretion is advised… and honestly, so is emotional preparedness. This week on the New to Wrestling Podcast, we dive into Over the Edge 1998 — and this one might be a top-to-bottom heater. From LOD 2000 vs. DOA chaos… to Kai En Tai delivering one of the most underrated handicap matches we’ve seen… to Sable getting absolutely done dirty in a “custody battle”… to Kane vs. Vader in a mask vs. mask showdown… And that’s before we even get to the main event. Stone Cold Ste...

2026/02/19

Viewer discretion is advised… and so is Vince McMahon’s judgment. This week on New to Wrestling, we break down the May 25, 1998 episode of Raw Is War — the chaotic go-home show before Over the Edge — and things spiral immediately. Vince McMahon opens the show bragging about assaulting Stone Cold Steve Austin… and accidentally confesses in front of “police.” What follows? An arrest. Beer. Handcuffs. Public humiliation. And that’s just the first segment. We dive into: Stone Cold forcing Vince t...

New to Wrestling Podcast ·

2026/02/13

Viewer discretion is advised… but this one comes straight from the heart. In this special mini-episode of New to Wrestling, Xavier and Kelsey hit pause on the usual chaos to say one very important thing: Thank You. What started as a hopeful coat drive turned into something way bigger than either of us imagined. From coats and boots to handmade scarves and crocheted blankets, the outpouring of generosity from our wrestling community absolutely blew us away. Multiple carloads later, donations w...

2026/01/30

In this episode of New to Wrestling, we sit down with independent wrestling standout Joey Conway — “The Cause of It All.” What starts as a conversation about presence and first impressions quickly becomes a deep dive into what it actually means to love wrestling while living inside it. Joey opens up about staying a fan in a business that can burn people out, why being a great heel is really about making everyone else better, and how character, intention, and detail matter just as much as mov...

2026/01/22

This week on New to Wrestling, we dive headfirst into the May 18, 1998 edition of Raw Is War — an episode that somehow manages to be chaotic, hilarious, deeply cursed, and strangely heartfelt all at once. Vince McMahon stacks the deck against Stone Cold Steve Austin yet again, the Stooges clock in for overtime nonsense, and Dude Love continues his deeply confusing villain era complete with gratitude speeches and… strong yet sensitive hands. We get the official (and highly suspicious) DNA reve...

On this episode of New to Wrestling: After Dark, we’re joined by someone we’ve admired for a long time — Kevin Herrera Sanchez, the creator and host behind Ringville. Kevin flips the script and joins us on the other side of the interview for a wide-ranging, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful conversation about wrestling, creativity, and building something meaningful from the ground up.

2026/01/08

This week on New to Wrestling, we dive headfirst into the May 11, 1998 edition of Raw Is War — an episode that feels like the entire WWF hit the gas at once and refused to slow down. With Over the Edge looming, nearly every major storyline collides in one chaotic night: Vince McMahon stacks the deck against Stone Cold Steve Austin, Dude Love spirals deeper into an identity crisis, DX continues their unhinged cross-company invasion tour, and the Nation of Domination officially collides with DX...

2026/01/01

This week on New to Wrestling, we take a surprise detour — and somehow end up deep in the wild, confusing, and endlessly fascinating world of WCW Monday Nitro. Thanks to technical issues (a recurring character on this show), we pivot from our usual Raw coverage and drop into the May 11, 1998 edition of Nitro — a three-hour episode that immediately makes Kelsey feel like a brand-new wrestling fan all over again. What follows is a whirlwind tour of everything WCW did right… and very wrong. We b...

New to Wrestling Podcast: Raw Is War — May 4, 1998 | Community, Chaos, and the Cost of Wrestling Before we even hit the opening bell, this week’s episode of New to Wrestling reminds us why wrestling is more than just what happens in the ring. We kick things off with a community-first announcement: a coat drive in partnership with Respect Wrestling, collecting winter coats, blankets, and accessories for Tony’s Kitchen in Montclair. Wrestling has always been about community, and this is our sma...

2025/12/11

The Attitude Era didn’t just go off the rails this week — it begged Vince McMahon to hold its beer while it jumped the guardrail and stole a tank. We’re back from our accidental holiday-season hiatus (small business girlies, we survive by vibes alone), and diving straight into the chaos that was Raw Is War: April 27, 1998 — an episode packed with invasions, betrayals, unhinged promos, and one of the funniest JR commentary nights in wrestling history. Inside this wonderfully deranged time caps...

After a brief hiatus (shoutout to small business season), we’re back with a story that blends the heart of wrestling with the drama of mythic storytelling.

2025/11/06

The Attitude Era officially sets itself on fire — literally. This week, Xavier and Kelsey dive into WWF Unforgiven 1998, a pay-per-view packed with absurdity, infernos, and enough double-crossing to make Vince McMahon blush (which he does, from a stretcher). From The Undertaker and Kane’s inferno match — a legit cinematic masterpiece — to Sable vs. Luna redefining the term “evening gown match,” this one’s got everything: cult energy from Dude Love, creepy energy from Jerry Lawler, and chaotic...

Viewer discretion was definitely advised. The Attitude Era officially went off the rails this week, and Kelsey and Xavier are here for every unhinged minute of it. From Dude Love’s lava-lamp-lit “Love Shack” to the literal exhumation of the Undertaker’s parents, this go-home episode to Unforgiven ’98 might be one of the wildest yet. DX is flashing water guns and questionable ideas, Vince McMahon is menacing interns with coffee, and the Undertaker is fighting his brother over flaming caskets i...

This week, we sit down with wrestling legend Raven and filmmaker Geordie Day, director of the new documentary Nevermore: The Raven Effect. It’s part wrestling psychology deep dive, part emotional reckoning — a candid conversation about the blurred line between character and self, the chaos of ECW, and what it means to wrestle with your own legacy. Raven opens up about therapy, mental health, and how he turned personal pain into one of wrestling’s most complex characters. Geordie Day shares wh...

The night after WrestleMania XIV was pure chaos and we were here for every second. From Vince McMahon trying (and failing) to play nice with Stone Cold, to Austin getting arrested less than 24 hours into his title reign, to the Nation of Domination finally cracking open, this Raw was stacked. DX rebuilt itself in one night with Triple H stepping up, X-Pac making his jaw-dropping return, and the New Age Outlaws officially joining the crew.
