The wild, wacky and crazy side of professional wrestling.
Mickie James first arrived in WWE in October 2005. She was immediately thrust into the spotlight by being paired with Women's Champion Trish Stratus. She was her biggest fan at first and it often made things bizarre and very awkward between the two. But that would morph into hatred from Crazy Chick Mickie James. This lead to one of the best women's matches at WrestleMania 22. Follow us as well go through the entire weird angle. Also we talk current WWE post SummerSlam.

Harris had a great time with this one. Mark did not. WrestleMania 27 was not great. Mark would know because he was there. But people usually forget about the fact that Jersey Shore's Snooki had a match. And won! So get ready because painful or not we talk all about it!

After another two week break due to sickness and scheduling we are finally back! This week we go back to 2011 and explore one of the characters WWE has produced in decades. Cody Rhodes turned a Dashing gimmick into an Undashing one with a broken character wearing a protective mask. His promo work was spectacular and bizarre.

Well if you thought we were done talking about Charles Warrington then you were sadly mistaken. After the Beaver Cleavage gimmick died he became Chaz. And was boring. But then his girlfriend, Mrs. Cleavage herself claimed he was beating her and it became a huge on-screen locker room issue. Also we discuss current(ish) wrestling news!

We apologize in advance. This is another one (Harris picked) that is inappropriate for kids. The Attitude Era was a pretty disgusting time and this is yet another example why. Val Venis. Don't really have to say more. A porn star gimmick goes WAY too far. WAY TOO FAR!

Zack Ryder was a wrestler no one cared about in the WWE back in 2011. Unsatisfied with that, he started his own YouTube channel and eventually became an internet sensation in the wrestling community and got so over that he became an integral part of RAW! Join us as we explore that story! Also a special What's Up With David Arquette segment where we got RJ City to say a few words!

Warning. This week's episode contains some adult themes.
We are back and we are delving into an insane story line from the good ol WWF in 1999. Only Vince and the WWF in the Attitude Era would think that making a 1950's TV show into a jokingly incestuous angle. Only Vince. Also we discuss Double or Nothing, NXT TakeOver 25 and What's Up With David Arquette!

Oh man. Buckle up folks because we've got a wild one for ya. Back in TNA in 2012 Christopher Daniels and Kazarian started claiming AJ Styles had a "secret" that they would expose. Well that would lead to a summer-long feud of insane proportions. It involves an affair with the boss Dixie Carter, helping a crack addict and then impregnating said crack addict. Nope I'm not kidding. Take a listen if you dare!

In 1993-94 Doink the Clown started messing with Jerry "The King" Lawler. This feud lasted over a year and spawned many wonderfully awful moments. The culmination was Doink with his posse of little people clowns taking on Lawler and his posse of little people kings at Survivor Series 1994.
