In this episode, Nick and Vaughn dive deep into Hulk Hogan's in-ring debut in World Championship Wrestling at WCW's Bash at the Beach 1994 in Orlando. It was the dawning of a new era in WCW, "Wrestling is cool again" as Tony Schiavone would put it before signing off for the night. WCW wasted no time to deliver Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair - whereas Vince McMahon was scared off by making it the main event of WrestleMania VIII. And, man, was it ever a home run for WCW.

REWIND TIME. Hulk Hogan was out the door, but Vince McMahon needed a new American Hero for his audience to cheer for against the WWF Champion, Yokozuna. Enter Lex Luger, who made his babyface turn on the deck of the U.S.S. Intrepid in New York City. With multiple professional wrestlers, and even some professional athletes, failing to bodyslam Yokozuna, Luger became the hero we all deserved. I guess. Luger never won the championship, but this day marked the beginning of the Lex Express. So join us as we get patriotic and live commentate the entire Stars and Stripes Challenge from July 4, 1993. Recorded July 2019 as a Patreon exclusive. We apologize for the mic quality, we didn't invest in podcast mics until 2020. | |||

| REWIND: WWF King of the Ring '01 Deep Dive | 22 Jun 2026 | 01:27:31 | |
REWIND TIME. After WWF purchased WCW in 2001, it was all downhill from there, we just didn't know it yet. King of the Ring took place in June 2001 and it was the last "WWF-only" PPV until December's Vengeance PPV later that year. Shane McMahon - the "owner" of WCW - took Kurt Angle to the limit (!), Booker T made his WWF debut and injured Stone Cold Steve Austin - hell, there were a ton of injuries on this show - an anticlimactic main event, Vince McMahon nowhere to be found, no celebration for the winner of the King of the Ring until the next night, and much more. We dive into it all on this week's episode. Recorded June 2024.

In this episode, Vaughn and Nick dive deep into WCW's Beach Blast 1992. It's the Bill Watts era and a lot of things don't make sense. Sting is the WCW World Heavyweight Champion and facing Cactus Jack in a Falls Count ANYWHERE ON THE GULF COAST but the title isn't on the line. Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat and "Ravishing" Rick Rude face off in a 30-minute Iron Man Challenge, but Rude's U.S. Heavyweight Championship isn't on the line. The Steiner Brothers defend their World Tag Team Championships in the main event against "Dr. Death" Steve Williams and Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy but that results in a time-limit draw. SO WHY DOES NICK LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH? BUT FIRST, the guys discuss Danhausen and the New York Knicks, CM Punk rumors, Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland in the Men's Owen Hart Foundation Tournament Final, and more. -- Twitter/X: [@_piccone] [@VaughnMJohnson] [@ShootersRadio] Instagram: [@shootersradio] Threads: [@shootersradio] [@picconenick] [@vaughnjohnson166] Bluesky: [@shootersradio] [@piccone] [@vaughnjohnson] Facebook: [facebook.com/shootersradio] YouTube: [youtube.com/@shootersradio] Exclusive Patreon content: [patreon.com/shootersradio] | |||

REWIND TIME. On June 23, 1996, the World Wrestling Federation invaded the MECCA Arena in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for their annual King of the Ring pay-per-view. This would be the first year where only semifinals and the finals took place on the actual pay-per-view, with more stacked matches than ever before. It certainly was, to date, the greatest WWF King of the Ring card ever. There certainly were seeds planted well before the Federation would head into the Attitude Era more than a year later, and many of them were seen during this show.
