How the Podcast began
It all started with a wrestling fan who was by and large too young to follow along with the boom period of wrestling - and one that has an affinity for a crazy idea - and you get the Wrestling 20 Years Ago Podcast. Started in April/August 2013 by Bob Bamber and then taken over by Rory McNamara the show reviews wrestling shows from WWF, WCW and ECW every month from 20 years ago when you're reading this. Oh, and just to increase the difficulty factor, we review shows as if we're watching them at the time, and don't forward reference events. Sounds easy, just try not to call the Undertaker's walking the top rope "Old School".
Through a combination of communities like XWT and now the WWE Network, along with the Pro Wrestling Torch and Wrestling Observer newsletters, we immerse ourselves in the era and try to provide you an accurate representation of what we would be saying about the era if we were podcasting about it then. No hindsight, just honesty!
