Bob Bamber is joined by Jeff Parker and Tom Martyn reviewing WWF. Summerslam dominates the discussion, with a match of the year contender from Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon, along with a horrid main event between Diesel and Mabel. Elsewhere, we discuss Dustin Rhodes as “Goldust”, the heel turn of Davey Boy Smith, and how the company should combat the debut of Nitro.

Bob Bamber is joined by Del Muir and Wayne Lythgoe reviewing the Clash Of The Champions. Vader takes on Arn Anderson and Ric Flair, and Hulk Hogan enters the “live” Dungeon of Doom. We look at the impending arrival of the ECW axis of Benoit, Malenko, Guerrero and Sabu, and look at the upcoming Ric Flair vs Arn Anderson feud.

Bob Bamber is joined by Del Muir, Tom Martyn and Kieran Mitchell for this special show. We begin with a review of the final of the IWA King Of The Deathmatch Tournament – an exploding barbed wire board match between Terry Funk and Cactus Jack. Bob drops off at this point and Del leads your usual ECW proceedings, looking at the final matches of the Guerrero Malenko classic.

Bob Bamber is joined by Stewart Brookes and Chris White reviewing the NJPW Collision in Korea show.

In a special edition of the podcast we look back at the historically significant New Japan show produced and broadcast in association with WCW from North Korea. The only time Ric Flair ever wrestled Antonio Inoki, and all of the legitimately fascinating stories behind the trip.
