But as good as business was, subtle shifts began to signal potential trouble. Crockett moves his entire operation to Dallas upon expanding there, incurring sizable expenses. Ron Garvin would win the Heavyweight title as houses began to suffer. What was to come? Join arguably the most hated member of wrestling’s most notorious faction ever, as Tully Blanchard sits down with you to draw back the curtain on everything happening in 1987.

Supercard: Butch Reed Re-experiences The Ghetto Street Fight

Butch Reed had always heard the popular myth in wrestling that two black wrestlers could never draw against each other in the South. In 1984, both Reed and The Junkyard Dog were ready to blow that theory out of the water in Bill Watts’s Mid-South territory. The blow off of that angle was the legendary Ghetto Street Fight. THE BUILD UP - Butch turns heel and not only double-crosses JYD, but sets the South on fire by painting JYD and then tarring and feathering him. THE ANGLE - Butch and Dog worked each other from 1983 into 1984, drawing in help from talent like Buddy Landel and Ted DiBiase up until June of 1984 at the New Orleans Superdome. THE SHOT - Over 20,000 people come to see the blow-off for the North American Title between the two strongest draws in Mid South!

Guest Booker with Bill Eadie

There was once a time when bookers sat in the audience to gauge the reaction to their decision. They realized that it was the fans that decided whether their ideas were good or not. Today, writers are disconnected from the desires of the paying fans, and their opinions and Internet postings are largely ignored. Bill Eadie booked at a time when the fans were everything. He learned from the greats that sat up in the “cheap seats” to hear what the true fans were saying. And he shares that old school mentality on this edition of Guest Booker. We give Bill the task of booking a breakup of one of wrestling’s most formidable teams. That team, Demolition, Eadie helped build. And now he’ll have to tear it down for his booking exercise. Bill Eadie reminds us that there was little relevance to a heel or babyface designation when someone was as over as Demolition was. And now he’ll try and tap into the fans’ imagination and have them choose sides…in this Guest Booker!

Timeline: The History of WCW – 1997 – As Told By Kevin Nash

With the nWo in full swing, there seemed no way that WCW could lose the momentum they’d built. Huge stars appeared on TV weekly as Nash, Hall, Syxx, Hogan, Savage, Flair, Bret and Sting were red hot and would drive ratings high. Starrcade would deliver WCW’s highest buyrate in 1997 as well. Now head inside that operation with one of the engineers of the nWo, Kevin Nash. Join Kev for this 3+ hour journey into WCW and hear about putting all the pieces together and playing the game of wrestling politics to perfection.

Guest Booker with Terry Taylor

It’s 1987 and Jim Crockett Promotions is about to claim ownership of Bill Watts’ legendary territory. With that will come an influx of talent from Watts’ roster. In reality, that purchase was rather unspectacular and nothing interesting was ever made of the acquisition. But through the magic of Guest Booker, we will have Terry Taylor, a booker who has worked creatively for WWE, WCW, and TNA, analyze the purchase and use his talents to try and conjur up a more compelling use of the expanded roster. Taylor was working for UWF at the time of the purchase, but we ask him to switch hats and display the skills and philosophies that made him such a valuable creative force in the eyes of the bosses at pro wrestling’s majors. Join us as Terry Taylor gives a veritable booking master class.

Supercard: Hacksaw Duggan Re-Experiences Royal Rumble ’88
10.0

Just what on earth was a Royal Rumble? Well prior to early 1988 no one had an answer for that, but they soon would as the WWE was about to launch a new and long-lasting twist on the battle royal. Our guest for this edition of the show can claim the distinction of being the winner of the first Royal Rumble match, and he was an unlikely choice. THE CONCEPT - Who knew this would become one of the WWE’s tentpole PPV’s for years and years to come. Hacksaw was just lucky to be in the thing, after his recent firing! THE SCANDAL - Less than a year prior, Duggan and the Iron Sheik would be caught in scandal as they exposed the business and endangered Vince McMahon’s family friendly product. THE SHOT - Head back to 1988 for this inaugural event which was not yet a pay-per-view…but would soon become one of their big 4!

One of the most maligned, controversial figures to ever enter the pro wrestling game has agreed to open up all aspects of his life for you to examine. In this edition of the probing Breaking Kayfabe series, Vince Russo sits across from Sean and takes part in a nearly two and a half hour exploration of what makes Russo who he is.

Now you can head back there as well with our tour guide Vader, who was holding the WCW title. Sure, there was to be an NWA champion during this time as well, but Vader’s title was the WCW title which carried more weight…didn’t it?

Timeline: The History of WCW – 1994 – As Told By Eric Bischoff

There are watershed moments in the history of pro wrestling where the business is redefined, reinvented, or otherwise recast in a new mold. 1994 saw one of those moments when Hulk Hogan signed with the archenemy, WCW. It would reshape wrestling and create a new kind of competitive drama. And behind all of this was a mastermind who would go on to helm WCW and achieve the unthinkable. Join Eric Bischoff as he takes you back to the year when he began his ascension up the ranks of WCW and fired the opening salvo of what would become a “war.” Go inside the oft discussed talent meetings. Hear about the hirings and firings first-hand, right here!

Timeline: The History of ECW 1992/93 as told by Tod Gordon

To understand what ECW became, we must learn from where it came. In a wrestling world invaded by Goons, pig farmers, and Sparky Plugs, there would soon operate a wrestling church in South Philadelphia. That site preached gospel to wrestling fans longing for some danger and believability. And for this very special edition of the series we head back to that very location, the former ECW Arena. Our guest for this exploration of the very inception of ECW is the founder, Tod Gordon. Tod will take you inside everything that formed the company and fostered the identity that the big feds would try to emulate. From humble beginnings to sudden glory, this is the tale of how it happened! Plus a great bonus feature as Tod takes us through the former ECW Arena!

Supercard: Summerslam 88 with The Honky Tonk Man

After a remarkable run of 454 days as a heel champion, The Honky Tonk Man would help usher in a new era of champion in WWE history by losing to The Ultimate Warrior. The match was 27-seconds. But Lord, the road to that decision was no-where near as short. Political wrangling's with McMahon and Savage would cause this swift end to a historic reign. THE OPPONENT: It may have been The Ultimate Warrior in the ring that night at the inaugural Summerslam but Honky’s real opponents were, in actuality, all outside of the ring. THE ANGLE: Was it Savage? Jake Roberts? Beefcake? Warrior? Just what was the driving angle that led up to Summerslam? We will iron it all out here. THE SHOT: Head back to NYC for the first Summerslam and the fascinating and heartbreaking journey that got HTM there!

Timeline: The History of WCW – 1986 – As Told By The Rock 'n' Roll Express

In the days of Jim Crockett Promotions, 1986 was a standout year, seeing record gates, a record Starrcade, and a healthy roster of huge stars.

Join Ricky and Robert, the Rock n Roll Express, and head back to what were truly glory days for what would become WCW.

Timeline: The History of WCW – 1990 – As Told By Jim Cornette

It’s 1990 and things are about to change. One of wrestling’s most celebrated managers and bookers would see his successful tenure in WCW come to an abrupt end. There would be Black Scorpions, a Mysterious Pearl, and a fake Sting, among other things, to keep fans riveted. But perhaps it’s what we weren’t able to see that makes this year all the more interesting. Head back to the tumultuous year of 1990 with Jim Cornette as he draws back the curtain on the booking decisions, ratings, and the blowouts with WCW head honcho Jim Herd in this entertaining and informative edition of the Timeline series. We will show you the WCW/TBS documents as Jim narrates the story that would prove to be the end of his run with the company…in all the glorious detail you’d expect from Timeline and the spellbinding rancor you’d expect from Cornette!

Timeline The History of WWE – 1981 – As Told By Rick Martel

Atop the tag team division in the WWE in 1981 stood a fiery youngster and his brother figure, both of whom had the looks and the brawn to bring fans to their feet all over the Northeast. They slammed Moondogs, battled Samoans, and were high-flying champions full of excitement. Head back to 1981 with Rick Martel and enter the locker rooms walked by Vincent J. McMahon, Gorilla Monsoon, Capt Lou Albano and the legends of yesteryear. This may have been a simpler time in the business, but the lessons learned were hard, and so was the road. Come into the venues of yesteryear and see who was getting over and who wasn’t. This is the real deal…a time with no cable TV, no pay-per-view, and one hour of syndicated TV per week…and the arenas were packed.

Guest Booker with JJ Dillion
9.5

The most crucial aspect of pro wrestling’s salability, its television, is explored. The man who wrote WWE television beside Vince McMahon and Pat Patterson for years, JJ Dillon, joins us to explore the art and science of writing wrestling television. We gave JJ a fictional pay-per-view supercard from the early 90s era and gave him one month of TV with which to advance the angles. See how JJ uses the weekly A and B shows, as well as a Saturday Night Network Special to build up to the pay-per-view at month’s end. He then books the results of that big card. When should a run-in be employed? How to use promos and packages? How does one choose a TV arena? What does it mean politically if Wrestler A makes the save for Wrestler B on TV? JJ shows us how to use just the right amount of exposure fangles for a most effective build-up. The booker’s job doesn’t end there, as we hear about the very delicate practice of employing diplomacy in dealing with the “big egos/TV time” equation.

Timeline The History of WWE – 1977-1978 – As Told By Superstar Graham

Enter The Superstar… Superstar Billy Graham burst onto the scene in the WWWF, unseated Bruno Sammartino, and rewrote the rulebook for pro wrestling heels.

We pick up the action in April of 1977, just before Graham gets the strap, and we follow the action into 1978, when Backlund takes it. The Sammartino title change…the McMahons…the ‘Wiz’…Japan…Backlund…the backroom dealings…missed opportunities…Albano’s antics…working the blade…the TV tapings… …all that and EVERYTHING that was happening in 1977/78 in WWE!!!

Guest Booker with Bruce Prichard

That’s our guest’s take on the happenings in Montreal when Vince McMahon strong-armed his belt back from his one time franchise player, Bret Hart. Millions watched, millions have their opinions about what took place. It remains wrestling’s most talked about screwjob. But how many people were actually THERE for it…for the meetings beforehand, the options the office was considering, the day to day events as the company was heading down a financially tumultuous road? And how many people were with Vince the night it all went down? Our Guest Booker, Bruce Prichard, was. Let Bruce take you back to the booking meetings and the locker room when Vince and Bret finally met. Prichard’s long tenure with WWE creative is covered as we spend time with a writer who transcended the goofy days of Goons and Mantaurs through the era of attitude.

Guest Booker with Mike Graham

It was supposed to be an old-school partnership. Jim Crockett Promotions was stepping in for a merger with Championship Wrestling from Florida. The promotions would have a talent swap, share their biggest cities, as well as their television exposure. Then it was over. Why? According to the late Mike Graham, son of CWF’s legendary Eddie Graham, the fix was in from the beginning. He alleges it was Crockett’s plan all along. The merger was an attempt to infiltrate and bankrupt the Florida territory that the Graham family had spent a lifetime cultivating. Mike was Eddie’s best friend. He was the only man alive with the insight into Eddie’s mind and the intricate machinations of his business, and Florida wrestling as a whole. Learn about Florida, Eddie, running the territory, fighting Crockett, Dusty’s departure and its effect on Eddie. And ultimately, the details surrounding the untimely death of Eddie Graham, told eerily enough by the son that would meet his fate soon after this taping.

Breaking Kayfabe with Francine Fournier

Before Francine became a sex symbol for the most violent, depraved organization in wrestling, she was a regular Philly girl. She was working a menial insurance job with wrestling nowhere on her radar. On a whim, she grabs the phone and calls a number she sees on TV for the ECW training school. The rest is hardcore history. The ECW landscape was pretty tough so now you’ll hear how this lady, as tough as her character, managed to navigate that road and come out on the other side. Francine fought through great personal tragedies as well as great disappointment over accusations aimed at her from an ECW talent on a KC show.

Guest Booker with Vince Russo

It’s notable that the man whose booking was in part responsible for one of the biggest boom periods in wrestling, had nothing to do with wrestling’s most hotly anticipated angles. Vince Russo was already gone when the WWE completed its purchase of WCW and planned to integrate the talent and history of the WCW and NWA. Many feel WWE dropped the ball on this opportunity. What would Russo have done? The most controversial figure in pro wrestling in the last 15 years was not known for being in the ring or on camera. Russo was a writer and his decisions sparked passionate debate, wild ratings points, and hatred. Well now, we profile the creative mind of the most polarizing off-camera wrestling figure ever, and we have him bring his unique philosophies and techniques to the WCW Invasion angle. Love him, hate him…if you were running a federation, chances are you’d want him! For the first time, watch Vince Russo weave angles over the weeks and months after the WCW purchase.

Timeline The History of WWE – 1980 – As told By Larry Zybszko

1980 in the WWF. Business isn’t so hot. Backlund isn’t drawing the houses they thought he would and business is moribund at best. That is, until a young Larry Zbyszko proposes an idea to his mentor that would change the course of the federation, and make the career of Zbyszko himself. This journey into 1980 is an incredible illustration of how Bruno Sammartino gave Larry Zbyszko the education of a lifetime in both the construction of the “Shea Stadium” program, as well as how to play the game of politics with the heavy hitters, like McMahon. No one saw the impact this angle would have on the gate at Shea, the direction of the company, the shadow it would cast on World Champion Backlund, and the heat and hatred Zbyszko would have to get used to living with. Relive the angle that re-ignited the biggest federation in the world…from the INSIDE…from the angle’s conception, to holding McMahon up for more money.

Sometimes Teddy does it with high-risk wrestling moves. Sometimes Teddy does it with criminal charges. Either way, Teddy knows how to get people talking. And man, can Teddy talk himself. But how many times has Teddy been forced to drop the machine gun, rapid fire banter and speak from the soul? This is what we sought to achieve on this edition of the show. Teddy’s path is seemingly filled with dark roads and dead ends. How much of this had Teddy brought on himself? He can blame ex-wives, girlfriends, and Bret, but Teddy’s greatest enemy may be the person staring him in the mirror. Then again, that may just be one of Teddy’s faces.

Sullivan brings to the table a pedigree of booking knowledge that extends back to his mentors Vince J. McMahon and Eddie Graham. Gabe Sapolsky learned under Paul Heyman, who was a student of Kevin’s. Now, they must sit down together and use the tools of their generation to make a TNA Impact takeover work well for wrestling’s biggest federation.

This transitional year of 1990 would see a move away from some of what made wrestling cool in the 1980s.

But they had to give it a shot! They would transition the heavyweight title away from Hulkamania and more towards the Warrior galaxies above!

Guest Booker with Al Snow

In an era where “PG” rated wrestling rules, it’s easy to forget about the late 90s and a wrestling product on television that featured irreverent, vulgar, and sexual themes. As today’s fan seems far less passionate about WWE offerings, perhaps what they need is a jumpstart with some of yesteryear’s themes. A product with “attitude.” This edition of Guest Booker features former OVW booker and current TNA creative member, Al Snow. Snow was right in the mix during the edgy attitude era, reminding audiences what “everybody wanted.” So how would he define the “attitude era” and just what separates that from today’s product? We figured we’d ask the always opinionated former booker that exact question. Snow tackles all that and so much more as we once again explore the lost art of booking with one of the creative minds of the business. Get ready to spend some time exploring the most controversial era in the sport with our Guest Booker…Al Snow

Guest Booker with Kevin Nash
10.0

When you look at the WWE roster in 1996 you may be surprised at what you find. There were pig farmers, hockey players, hunters and more living cartoons than wrestlers. To make matters worse, two of the wrestling stars in the company would soon be jumping to the competition and igniting a war that would severely wound their former home base. But what if things were different? What if they stayed? That’s the premise in this edition of Guest Booker wherein we charge former WCW booking committee member Kevin Nash with the task of keeping himself and Scott Hall in WWE and booking it to correct all that was going awry. Kevin’s highly reality-based philosophy conflicts with much of what was happening in WWE at the time so how will he approach this? Go inside the big jump to WCW and watch Kevin undo it… On the critically acclaimed series Guest Booker!

Guest Booker with Glenn Gilbertti

After giving life to the Disco Inferno character, Glenn Gilbertti became a part of the creative teams in first WCW, then TNA, under Vince Russo’s direction. Legend has been made over some of the suggestions Gilbertti came up with. But as with legend, one must do some prying to separate fact from fiction. Just how much of what is attributed to Gilbertti is true? In the spirit of Guest Booker, we bring to fruition some of these booking ideas of lore…The Invisible Man, Bill Ding the evil architect, and the Martian Invasion. If you’re reading this all for the first time, your eyes are fine. Go inside those real life booking meetings and hear about Gilbertti and Russo heartily enjoying advancing these proposed angles, to the disgust and great annoyance of Terry Taylor and others. It’s all consistent with Disco’s booking philosophy of trying things that have never been done, no matter how ridiculous it may seem!
