The Stevie Richards Show – Details, episodes & analysis

This week, Stevie Richards talks about the fallout of WWECW: Disember to Dismember 2006.  A PPV that speled the end for ECW as a separate brand for the WWE.  An end so bitter that it caused Paul Heyman to quit the company alll together.

Also, Stevie speaks to the recent comments made by Justin Credible after he appeared on Maven Huffman's YouTube channel where he was confronted with his own reputation in recent years.

And, in this week's "What Went Wrong?" segment, Stevie will review the utter botchfest courtesy of FTR and Undisputed Kingdom before talking about "What Went RIGHT?" for a change when he analyses the post match antics of Gunther and the Uso brothers in WWE.

The Stevie Richards Show Episode 39 | WWECW December to Dismember PPV Review

WWE's version of ECW.  Dead on arrival? Nothing short of a failure? A missed oportunity?  We can debate the above all day and night but what we can agree on is that December to Dismember 2006 was considered one of the worst PPV's either company had put their 3 letters to.  Endless promos and matches that went just too long and nonsensical stories and twists.  The WWE branded ECW would die soon after this event and become a legend all it's own.

This week, Stevie will take a look at the match card of the event and give his thoughts on how the PPV was put together, Stephanie McMahon's involvement in WWECW and if she was qualified to be involved at all and the curious matter of how and why Sabu was written off the show and WWE all together.

Elsewhere, in a new segment, Stevie will use some advanced tech to visually demonstrate how a basic tag team match is put together, we ask "What Went Wrong?" when Jey Uso flopped instead of flipped over the top rope and Stevie will also pontificate on the latest John Cena heel promo.

Stevie Richards loves video games.  He makes no secret about it. But did you know Stevie once almost (some say he should've) won $1 Million dollars by pitching a perfect game on MLB 2K11?  In this extention of the original video games episode of the Stevie Richards Show, Stevie will also talk about some of the other wrestlers that would plug in an XBOX or Playstation in an effort to blow off steam and pass the time backstage.  From multiplayers in the locker room, LAN parties in the hotels back in the day to Twitch streams of today.  Stevie will also talk about some of his favourite games to play and the go-to games his peers would play too.  Stevie will also put to rest the rumour that he might go by the handle SAXON on GameFAQs.

As well as the gaming chat, Stevie will also give his thoughts on Penta's WWE debut on RAW this past Monday in his Analysis segment and we take a look at an oldie but a goodie in this weeks F.A.F.O segment featuring Low Ki!

The Stevie Richards Show Episode 28 | WWE Raw Netflix Debut Reviewed

WWE moving it's flagship show, RAW from Cable TV to streaming is a huge change which has been hyped for weeks and months. There has been a lot of rumor and speculation about what to expect from the progamme with the move: A different style of content? Harsher language and violence? Better stroylines? Longer shows?

The question now is, did WWE deliver? Why change the ring canvas and fill it with sponsors? Why have a 3+ hour show with only 4 matches? How did one man kill two possible storylines in one night? Was this just a one off with WWE celebrating the move to Netlix with a "Rah! Rah! Go Team!" style production? Or is this what we can expect from WWE RAW moving forward?  This is what Stevie will be thinking about on this episode.

Stevie will also be conductiong a detailed review of the main event of Seth Rollins vs CM Punk in this week's analysis segment and in "What Went Wrong?", Stevie will demonstrate the right way (and the wrong way) to take CM Punk's GTS.

The InVasion Stevie Richards looks back at possibly the most destructive angle in the history of professional wrestling; the WCW "invasion" of the WWF, the would encompass ECW and lead up to a Survivor Series showdown for which company would control the destiny of pro wrestling. Of course the WWF won, and the storyline was booked so badly, the WWF ended up losing a third of their viewing audience in just 6 months, never to return.

Stevie discusses the night Vince McMahon bought WCW, McMahon firing everybody in a promo, Shane McMahon, Shawn Michaels' reaction, Buff Bagwell vs Booker T, Buff Bagwell getting fired and beaten up by Bradshaw and Bob Holly, Stevie's return to the screen as the manager of Kronik, the nicest wrestlers in WCW and so much more!
