| Three Rings, Riots, and the secret history of New Japan Pro Wrestling | 18 Feb 2025 | 00:25:31 | |
Our deep dive into the secret history of pro wrestling continues as Johnny Powers goes from top guy to top promoter in this chapter of the "first" national wrestling promotion. At the same time, Matt gets nostalgic about a "backyard" wrestling company that was just teenagers fighting on some random Brooklyn beach. From Buffalo, To Cleveland, To Tokyo and beyond we look at the rise of Powers and Pedro Martinez' first joint effort, Powers putting on the first "Super Bowl" of Wrestling at Municipal Stadium, to Powers returning to heel form and setting off a riot, plus how Antonio Inoki won his first world championship nearly a decade before the IWGP would find it's way into the Lion's Den Resources https://www.cagematch.net/?id=8&nr=739&page=8 https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/CLE/1972-schedule-scores.shtml https://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ohio/cleveland/cleveland-history.html https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pitts12.htm https://www.clevescene.com/news/wrestling-legend-ox-baker-whose-1974-match-caused-a-riot-in-cleveland-dies-at-80-4395064 http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=163319 https://web.archive.org/web/20220218164234/https://buffalonews.com/news/pedro-martinez-famed-buffalo-wrestling-promoter-dies/article_b6f6b5d6-6b7a-5463-bc42-fa599e7dee37.html https://www.legacyofwrestling.com/PedroMartinez.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzQhKyCBwIs https://www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=85954 https://www.cagematch.net/?id=8&nr=739&page=4 http://wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=9;t=007490 https://www.wvxu.org/2023-07-18/50-years-and-counting-cleveland-shows-its-still-a-champ-in-the-world-of-wrestling http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=print_topic;f=18;t=029935 http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=print_topic;f=9;t=036913 http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=9;t=013217 http://wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=163879;p=1 https://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/supercards/usa/misc/nwf.html https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pittsbuffclev.htm https://prowrestling.fandom.com/wiki/NWF_North_American_Heavyweight_Championship https://prowrestlingstories.com/pro-wrestling-stories/hottest-wrestling-feuds-60s-70s/ https://slamwrestling.net/index.php/2023/01/08/mat-memories-a-farewell-to-johnny-powers/ https://www.postandcourier.com/sports/wrestling/the-life-and-times-of-legendary-golden-adonis-johnny-powers/article_547cdb6e-9380-11ed-994b-3b40a3d1cfa5.html https://www.postandcourier.com/staff/mike_mooneyham/pro-wrestling-superstar-johnny-powers-was-pioneer-risk-taker/article_8fd28936-5b08-5f8a-a37c-731d3b77ba1d.html Hosted on Acast.

The story of the International Wrestling Alliance takes us to 1964 and 1965 this week as Johnny Powers goes from up-and-coming wrestler to main eventer to the hottest free agent in wrestling, much like someone else we know. He also...refuses to do jobs. All of this plus a secret Crockett-McMahon Wrestling War of the mid-60's, payola scams, and Johnny Powers in his own words on Historically Speaking!

| Nothing Works In Cleveland, Buddy Rogers Heart Gives Out, Bruno Sammartino Rises, and Meet Johnny Powers | 01 Feb 2025 | 00:26:20 | |
Fun times in Cleveland seems like a misnomer, but this week we head to The Land and get a look at some of the secret wrestling history that played into Bruno Sammartino becoming WWWF Champion! This plus Bruno's path to the title, Buddy Rogers final act in Capitol Wrestling, Johnny Powers and how he connects to not only these two, but our story, the comparisons between this situation and the Montreal Screwjob, Bruno and Buddy being the proto-CM Punk and Cody Rhodes, along with Powers being an early model of who Cody Rhodes would become. https://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ohio/cleveland/cleveland-history.html https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pitts12.htm http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=027360 http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=010574 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Wrestling_Federation https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pitts6-2.htm https://www.cleveland.com/pdextra/2010/07/l-l-l-l-lets_get_ready_to_reme.html https://www.cagematch.net/?id=8&nr=381 https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pitts15.htm https://slamwrestling.net/index.php/2023/01/07/johnny-powers-dead-at-79/ http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=024833 https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/pittsbuffclev/pitts11.htm Hosted on Acast.

| Football, The FBI, and the True Story of the WWE Title | 25 Jan 2025 | 00:34:29 | |
This week, we look at how the National Football League, their rivals, the American Football League, and the Department of Justice set the stage for not only Johnny Doyle and Jim Barnett's last act as a tandem in the United States but for Vince McMahon and Toots Mondt to keep Buddy Rogers as their World Heavyweight Champion without the NWA and the Federal Government looking breathing down their necks.

| Alternate Universe WWE Rises In Midwest As NWA Retightens Grip | 18 Jan 2025 | 00:27:34 | |
We return to the Johnny Doyle saga as he's now partnered with Jim Barnett to slowly take over the United States with their revolutionary brand of pro wrestling in the wake of the NWA's Consent Decree and an investigation by the Department of Justice. Despite Barnett and Doyle's former partnerships with Fred Kohler, Vince McMahon, and Toots Mondt, don't expect those partnerships to be sustained as Barnett and Doyle would see unlikely allies amidst their renegade siege across the United States. https://x.com/GreatBrianLast/status/1088227713129857024 https://www.legacyofwrestling.com/Doyle.html https://www.legacyofwrestling.com/BarnettDoyle2.html http://wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=10;t=005650 http://wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=150402 https://radiodiscussions.com/threads/memories-of-studio-wrestling.518890/ http://wrestlingclassics.com/.ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=9;t=047958 http://wrestlingclassics.com/cgi-bin/.ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=print_topic;f=9;t=034940 https://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/profile/jim-barnett/ https://mikemooneyham.com/2004/09/26/barnett-an-unforgettable-figure/ https://www.legacyofwrestling.com/RoyShire.html https://houseofdeception.com/Roy_Shire.html https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/sanfrancisco/sanfrancisco6-2.htm https://www.geocities.ws/percivalafriend/friend060407.htm https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=384427737661137&set=pcb.384427794327798 https://prowrestlingstories.com/pro-wrestling-stories/big-time-wrestling-san-francisco/ https://www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/wwa-ind/wwaind2.htm Hosted on Acast.

| How the Federal Government, Lack of Vision, and TV Time Created The WWE | 10 Jan 2025 | 00:19:45 | |
Our look at the first national wrestling promotion brings us to when the NWA was at the peak of its powers but would see Toots Mondt's lack of success at the track and at the gate, kneecapping of nationally televised cards, and the Federal Government create major cracks that would not only lead to the IWA in 1975 but to the creation of World Wrestling Entertainment.

| Koloff, Ladd, Mascaras, and the mystery man tapped to lead the IWA | 01 Aug 2025 | 00:26:31 | |
With 1975 upon us, we look at the three wrestlers tasked with leading the top of the card in the IWA, along with some of the other burgeoning stars, regional icons, and longshot supernovas that would launch the first national wrestling promotion. Plus a look at some of the territories that the IWA looked to take aim at, and some of the stars either ripe for the taking or waiting at the gates for the impending invaders.

Our return to Secret Wrestling History takes us to 1975, the end of Johnny Powers' run as a promoter... for now, as the Martinez's and Eddie Einhorn's IWA begins to take shape in a time where pro wrestling was in the midst of change, evolution, and for Vince McMahon Sr., a rare time of peace on top of promotional prosperity.

| The Battle Of New York And Suspend Your Disbelief Theater: Episode 13 | 18 Aug 2025 | 00:09:57 | |
We go deeper into 1975 on the 13th edition of Historically Speaking, as IWA's TV continues to be a burr in Vince McMahon's heel and both sides play games in the press or politically on the road to the IWA's northeast debut inside Roosevelt Stadium in New Jersey. We also debut "Suspend Your Disbelief Theater" as we go back to what we think may be July 5, 1975 as George "Crybaby" Cannon tries to convince George "The Animal" Steele to jump from the WWWF to the IWA and debut one day before he battles Bruno Sammartino at Madison Square Garden.

After 11 episodes, we finally discuss matches and television that aired from IWA, spanning nearly three decades of context and over a dozen scenarios, brawls, and pseudo-national territories. Eddie Einhorn's dream becomes a reality. From stealing TV Stations from Vince McMahon, Ted Turner's more than curious involvement, Thunderbolt Patterson's war on Jim Crockett Promotions, Jim Crockett Promotions saying he died, YES, THEY SAY HE DIED, and more in this edition of Historically Speaking.
