WCW in 1998 was a weird place man, but it’s good to be back, and nice to have a chat about UK Music in 1996, and remember how much certain bands really, really, really annoyed me, cheers all xxx

In the words of Englebert Humperdink "Help Yourself" to another sizeable dose of classic Bang Bang, recorded back at Christmas time 2019, in Steve's living room, talking about the legendary Arn Anderson, and generally chatting bollocks 

Cheers all xxx

HEY  

Welcome back 

A look back at Wrestlemania from a couple of weeks ago

Live cooking 

Some terrible booking ideas 

All the usual waffle and nonsense

Thanks everyone xx 

THE ULTIMATE CHALLENGE was probably making it through this slog of a PPV, but one that people of a certain age (old buggers like us) hold in very high esteem

Enjoy xxx 

A back episode from 2021, in celebration of the wonderful Glenn Abbott who sadly passed away late 2025.

Check out Glenn's work at "A Work in Progress" here https://youtu.be/KJ9weoIegog?si=zSbTNrjYNYqFbyEJ  A true Wrestling Fan, who knew everything, and completely ridiculed my lack of knowledge (and professionalism, quite rightly) 

Glenn will be missed by all of us xx

Cheers 

Andy  

We finish off the festive season with a look at this history of Pantomime in Bristol, Christmas Day TV from 1986, and eventually two middled aged British blokes battering each other in a car park

*features traces of Wrestling 

Merry Christmas

See you all soon xxx

Well It's Christmas Eve...

So what better way to celebrate than a Death Match from Empire State Wrestling in 2019 

The match is very brutal and traumatic, enjoy at your own risk here…

https://youtu.be/3hsshWE2jfQ?si=Tur2u3A83p4i1752

What exactly is "A Ravens Rules Match"

What does it have to do with Christmas ?

Why is Horace Hogan here

All these questions are answered (maybe) 

Merry Christmas

Back to 2005 today, to watch two blokes batter each other, whilst JBL is racist up in a balcony, Merry Christmas, I've got a hangover

Another trip back to 2020, and the lockdown version of MITB, which took place in the WWE Building in Connecticut, and it was all pre-taped, so edited perfectly and full interesting stuff, or maybe not...

What is more festive than two best  friends trying to batter each other over a longstanding issue

God we miss Kevin Owens xxx

Well, this was my choice, me and Patch watch this match and have a chit chat about the usual rubbish all the way through it 

2020 was a strange time right

So we go back and watch this whatever the hell this was supposed to be, it's not remotely festive, or any good to be honest, but we had fun, and isn't that what Christmas should truly be about ???

Hmmm
