| Faces of the Beast | 14 Sep 2022 | 01:24:21 | |
Brock Lesnar has been creating carnage where ever he has been since 2002. From OVW to WWE to NJPW and finally to UFC he has been the main event wherever he has been. Brock Lesnar had one of the best rookie years ever winning the King of the Ring Tournament, feuding with Hulk Hogan, and then becoming the then youngest world champion when he defeated The Rock at Summer Slam. Lesnar can not only brawl with the best of them he is one of the best conditioned athletes in WWE history. That conditioning was put to the test when he faced Kurt Angle in a 60 minute Iron Man match on Smackdown in 2003. Brian breaks down what went into this match that he was honored to be the ref for as well as his thoughts on the career of Brock Lesnar.

Are You Ready? For the thousands listening around the world, it's time for another episode of Refin It Up with Brian Hebner. This week Brian and RJ are honored to have former WWE referee Jimmy Korderas on the show to talk about someone that both he and Brian know well; Triple H.

Making his debut in WCW in 1994 he fell in love with the business; he then was thrusted into the spotlight when he went to WWE and became Hunter Hearst Helmsley. Triple H was one of the few men that could reinvent himself and get over even more than before. All this and more on this great episode.

It’s time to get Fabulous this week as we welcome one half of the Fabulous Rougeau’s, Raymond Rougeau to the show. Growing up in the business training with his brother and father was tough enough as it was; but starting at such a young age was difficult as well. Going up against men at the age of 16 was a daunting task he encountered where ever he went. Starting in Quebec his ultimate goal was to make it to the WWF and really showcase his great ability. When he retired at the age of 34 alot of people questioned him if he was really doing what he wanted to do. He continues to speak about his time as a commentator in the WWE, Vince McMahon, and so many great stories the week and more!!!

| Blueprint to Mayor | 13 Mar 2024 | 01:31:10 | |
The Blueprint of professional wrestling joins us the week; or as Brian likes to call him Mayor Matt Morgan join us this week. Matt was a two sport star at school then danced his way to Monmouth where he played basketball in the NCAA Tournament in 1996. Soon after that he had tryouts for the Indiana Pacers and Toronto Reports. However, the one thing he wanted to do was wrestle in WWE. He worked at a job that was very near the WWE headquarters in Connecticut so he could “bump into” Vince McMahon. Luckily he did just that and landed on Tough Enough 2. As they say the rest is history and he soon found himself in TNA and had it all. Finally , today Matt is the mayor of Longwood, Florida and is enjoying it there with his family and community.
