    Ep. 6 - The Finale: The First PPV

    "So it's all come down to this..." After several weeks of deliberation and negotiation, the roster is finally in place and it's ready for the first PPV event! But before we get to the action, there are a final few vital spots to fill: - Whose voice will be heard above the din of the crowd as our ring announcer? - Who will be the referees in charge of controlling the action inside and outside the ring? - Who will be ringside calling all of the spills and thrills as our three-man commentary team? Once these are all decided, it is on to deciding the name, location and run-down of our promotion's first big event! Who will walk away as our first champions, and what will the fallout be heading to our next show? Join Paul, Ash & Chris for the final time this season as they see if they can indeed BOOK THAT!

    Ep. 5 - Building Our Roster: The Heavyweights

    After much deliberation and debate over the last several weeks, our wrestling promotion is very much taking shape and looking as strong as ever! Now comes the pinnacle of all arguments - who is worth of a place amongst our heavyweights, to be in contention to be our first-ever World champion? The only caveat for this one is that the picks had to have won a major World title in one of the top 3 US promotions in the 90s. Unlike with the other divisions, no-one is a sure-fire entry and there are no 'wild card' picks available for this one - every single one is up for discussion! Ash, Paul & Chris all come to the boardroom table with 2 picks each and only 4 will make the cut. Who will be there at the end in one of the most exciting heavyweight divisions in wrestling history?

    Ep. 4 - Building Our Roster: The Mid-Carders

    The roster is really starting to take shape now but here comes the boys' biggest challenge to date - the mid-carders! It was often a case during the 90s that the most entertaining superstars and matches existed in the 'mid-card', usually centred around battles for the WWF Intercontinental and WCW United States Championships. These were the titles reserved for the up-and-coming superstars who may not yet be considered to be ready for World Champion status. This is where arguably the best matches of this era took place! With the likes of Bret Hart, British Bulldog, Shawn Michaels, Steve Austin, Owen Hart, Dustin Rhodes and Razor Ramon all at some point battling for and holding the mid-card titles, this is by far going to be the guys toughest choice yet! To make it a little easier (or more challenging, depending on how you look at it), the team have put a couple of criteria in place for this one - their choices need to have held a mid-card title in one of the 3 major US promotions (WWF, WCW & ECW) in the 90s, but never held a major World title. This ruling serves to thin the pack a little, but has it simply served to make the choice even harder? Find out who makes the cut! Enjoyed this episode?

    Ep. 3 - Building Our Roster: The Jobbers

    To have a successful wrestling promotion, you don't just need the big-name superstars who are battling to be the the champion, you also need the guys at the bottom whose job it is to make the top dogs look good. Introducing the "jobbers"! Not seen as often in today's wrestling scene, the weekly syndicated shows of WCW and WWF were filled with matches that could only be considered one-sided, the big names up against local lads in what were simply warm-up bouts. But the 90s did give us quite a few names who, whilst not always known for winning many matches, do still have a fond place in our memory banks. This week, Paul, Ash & Chris decide who should grace their promotion at the bottom and potentially be given another chance to shine! Enjoyed this episode?

    Ep. 2 - Building Our Roster: The Tag Teams

    Many argue that tag-team wrestling was at its peak during the 80s, with the likes of the Road Warriors, Demolition, The Fabulous Freebirds, The Hart Foundation, The British Bulldogs and countless others, but the 90s gave us some fantastic tandem-based memories too! This week, Ash, Paul & Chris pick which tag teams from the 90s have done enough to be considered for their own wrestling promotion. With so many great teams to choose from - including the likes of the Steiner Brothers, Money, Inc, Hollywood Blonds, New Age Outlaws etc - who will be pitched around the table, and who will make the cut?

    Ep. 1 - Building Our Roster: The Light-Heavyweights

    Welcome to an all-new wrestling podcast - with a twist! Have you ever dreamed of putting together your own dream wrestling roster? Who would make the cut? Who would reign as your World champion? Well, join us as podcasters Paul McGrath (Phoenix Five Podcast, What's The Story 90's Glory?), Ash Rose (HOW Mania, Alive and Kicking, The 90s Football Podcast) and Chris Tetreault-Blay (Dead Men Talk, Once Upon A Turnbuckle) as they do just that! In this first season, the guys need to build their roster. Week-by-week, they will take a different division and each will come armed with 2 superstars from the 90s who they feel should be part of their wrestling promotion. For each of our hosts, one of their picks will be a guaranteed entry onto our roster and one will be a 'wild-card', up for discussion and debate, with only 1 of the 3 wild-cards making it to our wrestling promotion. Kicking off the series - the Light-Heavyweights! The 90s saw the golden age of the light-heavyweights, with ECW and WCW showcasing the talents of the luchadores from Mexico and many other 'small guys' from around the world who all helped change the face of wrestling throughout the decade. Which superstars will be up for discussion today and, most importantly, who will make the cut? Enjoyed this episode?
