Wrestling At Its Best: The WWE's Kennel From Hell Match And The Dungeon Of Doom's Haunted Caves
This week on Wrestle Buddies, Mat and Chris are detailing the weird feud between Al Snow and the Big Boss Man that started with one of them accidentally eating a dog and ended with the best/worst Hell in a Cell match ever. Then, we jump to WCW to revisit the Dungeon of Doom, which is both a stable and also a location. How did this silly thing lead to a monster truck sumo match on the roof of an arena? You'll find out. We also welcome GameSpot's Kallie Plagge and Will Potter for a new installment of Wrestlepiece Theatre. Lastly, GameSpot's Meg Downey joins us for Mike or Meg or Dan's Soapbox and gets two minutes to talk about anything wrestling-related she chooses.

Fun podcast
I like that the hosts don’t expect every listener to be the most hardcore wrestling fan ever—they seem to be having a lot of fun and in doing so, get the message across that there’s something in wrestling for every person to enjoy. Hope this podcast sticks around.
So sexy
Mat Elfring is a sexy piece of meat and he can talk me to sleep with his dulcet tones any day of the week.
