It's a completely insane episode of From Crockett to Chaos for a lot of reasons. For one, our TV stash was low so we kind of went nuts and maybe got a little ELEVATED while taking notes on any and all things surrounding SuperBrawl II! Liger and PIllman change wrestling in the States! Rude and Steamboat have a classic! The Tag Title Match had a case of the Dusty Finishes! A ton of needless underneath stupidity! Jim showed me his nipples...

It's the final episode on 1991 and it's as mixed of a bag as the entire year because it's the inaugural Battlebowl- Lethal Lottery! Oh you don't know the rules? We break it down! There were some amazing debuts, some shocking returns, and sadly people we wanted to leave that stuck around (you Zemen, you!)

We are deep in the Lex Luger World Championship reign and well, it's feeling a little out of place. Not one but TWO huge title changes, and perhaps the best WCW tag match ever performed. It might be the hellscape that is 1991 but we're heading towards perhaps WCW's most underrated year ever. Then again, we have BattleBowl to get through...Jim is on social media over at:https://bsky.app/profile/thejimdb.bsky.socialhttps://www.threads.com/@thejimdbThe Troubles feeds are:https://www.threads.com/@troubleswres https://bsky.app/profile/troubleswres.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/troubleswres/https://x.com/TroublesWres

The next era of Arkansas pro wrestling has begun and it's thanks to the brand new promotion Razor Pro Wrestling and their first show Rebirth is loaded! We dive into all things Razor Pro as well as:

The awesome Wrestle Kingdom show by NJPW and where they are moving forwardNOAH and more importantly the dude Kai Fujimura making big money moves! CMLL isn't letting up as Promotion of the Year for 2026 right out of the gate with Mistico and Soberano Jr having heated confrontations.

It's the holiday season and it's also the beginning of a whole new look for the show! Shout out to Neon Ghost ( https://bsky.app/profile/neonghosts.bsky.social ) for the new logo and we can't thank them enough for being so awesome and creating some amazing stuff for us! The shows we're discussing though? A whole lot of hot garbage but in the end, we have a few truly great matches and moments to keep you all laughing and entertained!

It’s been a great year and in the fall out of my Season of Giving Playlist dropping today, I decided to jump back on the mic and break down why in the hell I did what I did with it, the responses I’m getting, and the usual glazing of Charles and what he does.

I give a shout out as well to the awesome Tony Richards and his Pro Wrestling Time Tunnel project that I really love and believe in! His restacking of my stuff really led to a jolt to my subscribers and I can’t thank him enough.

Razor Pro is coming to Northwest Arkansas and it’s going to be huge! They’ve been running as Mutiny Wrestling Federation for a minute but it’s time for a Rebirth. The reveal party will be January 10th, and the Rebirth even is February 28th! Super stoked to be working with them in 2026!

I also put over the amazing Neon Ghost and his work on my new logos for From Crockett to Chaos which will be revealed with the release of our next show all about Halloween Havoc 1991! Find him here on socials: BlueSkyThreads

When I tell you this was one of the roughest watches so far, it isn't hyperbole. Jim and I navigate the dark waters of 1991 and perhaps it'll aid you in your quest to find out what time period was the worst for WCW because I can't imagine anything beating this one. Lex finally gets a belt! Sting wins the US title off TV! Stunning Steve has to carry the trash! PN News vs One Man Gang?!?!?!

Go check out Charles and Wrestling Playlists hereBasically this is a big, rambling pod about how grateful I am for you listeners and readers, and my thoughts on the big stories going on in the wrestling biz right now.

It’s a mix of Dragongate, All Japan, Prestige, and any other bullshit I think of in my brain and I apologize in advance for the worst Japanese pronunciations since Jim Ross in 1991 WCW. Thanks for the love, it means a lot.

This is the biggest show we've done for a reason. We have all the build towards perhaps the biggest attendance disaster in WCW's short yet insane history. We have title changes that are wiped from the show, Shane Douglas' debut in WCW, Junkyard Dog getting a special entrance for a god awful match, and perhaps the best Flair vs Steamboat match ever.

WWE wanted a PR war? They got one and it isn't looking good for them after a white hot Double or Nothing event as well as Dynamite on Wednesday. I'm joined by my co host on From Crockett To Chaos, Jim who was live in the building for DON and he breaks down his thoughts and live reactions on the happenings along with the building Fallout Week on AEW TV. Jim is @thejimdb on BlueSky and Threads and the show is:Instagram and Threads: troubleswrestlingpodBlueSky: TroublesWeekly

We're getting to the good stuff of 1989 and the kickoff of the legendary Steamboat and Flair epic feud. Luger and Windham have a great one, Varsity Club and The Road Warriors beat each other into pulp, and Mike Rotunda is the new World Heavyweight World TV Champion!BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.com/@troubleswrestlingpod

It's Double or Nothing week and AEW has loaded the deck with incredible wrestling and promo goodness. I break down the epic face offs between the Owen Hart Cup finalists, the wild All Star Trios match and the preview of Anarchy in the Arena that left people in shambles, and a preview of both tonight's Collision and Sunday's epic Pay Per View event!

Get ready because we have officially found the beginning of the WCW vortex of stupidity. Clash 5 was a total train wreck with somehow one of the best builds imaginable, but that's more for next week and the Chi-Town Rumble.Check out Jim @thejimdb on Blue Sky and Threads as well as the show over at:Threads: troubleswrestlingpodBlueSky: TroublesWeekly

AEW looks to be going back to their basics and it's working out great for them, so I decided to do the same and bring ya'll a little positivity. You can't fix stupid, but you can fix your intake of the pod.

All roads have led us here to the Granddaddy of them All, Starrcade 1988 in Norfolk, Virginia. I won't lie, this was a very good card but with some STRANGE finishes. Jim and I dissect it for you and get you prepared for the first calendar year in WCW history; 1989.Jim's @thejimdb on Blue Sky and Threads and the show is:

@THEJIMDB is back and in full effect with all the painful details of the end of Jim Crockett Promotions and the official beginnings of World Championship Wrestling. It's a deep dive on all things Rick Steiner, Barry Windham, and a certain 7 time Spam Slam of the Week winning tag team?

AEW's riding high off a tremendous Playoff Palooza Collision and are gearing up for what could be a legendary Dynamite on Wednesday night. BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpod

It’s a wild time for Jim Crockett Promotions. Between a stellar Great American Bash show and uneasy finances, the future of the NWA is in limbo.

AEW's Spring Break Thru shows have come and gone and what an amazing week it was for them. We break down Collision, set you up for Dynamite in New Orleans, and maybe take a couple jabs at that other place's show in Vegas.BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: https://www.threads.net/@troubleswrestlingpod

It's finally here, the complete story of WCW from the very beginning and we give you a bit of a preview with the Spring of 1988 with Jim Crockett Promotions. My guest Jim began his love affair with pro wrestling in this era and breaks down great moments in his early fandom from the Bunkhouse Stampede to the Barry Windham turn on Lex Luger. Follow him over on BlueSky @THEJIMDB as well as on Threads @thejimdb

It's Bischoff Beating Week and boy did AEW stack the deck for Dynamite! It's Owen Hart Cup semi finals time and we have legendary bouts in those matches as well as Moxley stepping up for the Trios titles like the top guy he is...oh and I hear some other company's doing something this weekend.BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpod

Dynasty happened and BOY are some of the IWC really pissed off about it. I do my best to not stoke the fires on social media about it AT ALL and we break down the show as well as yet again another mysterious Dynamite preview that leaves us wondering what's next for AEW.BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpodShout out to  @thebubbacast  as well best Dynamite breakdown pods out there  @AllEliteWrapup  and  @SitDownShutUpMarkOut ​

It's a sneak peak into the new Jim Crockett Promotions/WCW podcast starting with a brief rundown of the UWF and what JCP's purchase of that promotion meant for their own fate.Shout out to ‪ @thebubbacast  for the amazing retrospective of Big Bubba Rogers, one of the very best big men to ever wrestle.BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpod

We're on the road to Dynasty and the word is out! People not only watch AEW but they love it and it's a great time to love AEW. Women have ruled the roost and the men are getting personal. Check out these awesome podcasts that break down Dynamite perfectly:All Elite Wrap-Up:  @AllEliteWrapup  Sit Down, Shut Up, and Mark Out: @SitDownShutUpMarkOut  BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpod

It's all about AEW this week between the comings and goings on the roster, to an already stacked Dynasty PPV taking shape. I break down both nights of Slam Dunk Collision, and preview Dynamite for you out of the kindness of my heart.BlueSky: TroublesWeeklyThreads: troubleswrestlingpod

AEW is on the road yet again and this time towards Dynasty with various different stories, Cena has given us a reason, and we figure out the zig zagging road to Mania.BlueSky: troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: @troubleswrestlingpod

What a damn Revolution Sunday we had from AEW, I've got all the deets as well as some elusive WWE talk. Mainly however, we're talking Dynamite and what we expect from an unusually mysterious show.BlueSky: troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: @troubleswrestlingpod

For both AEW and WWE respectively, all roads lead to the west coast for their next extravaganzas. For AEW it's this Sunday in Los Angeles for Revolution and for WWE it's Las Vegas for the 41st WrestleMania that has gotten very bizarre after Toronto this last weekend.Bluesky: @troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: @Troubleswrestlingpod

We're on the road to Revolution and WrestleMania and boy, could they not be any more different. On one side has been fantastic 'rasslin and on the other? Stammering promos that seem like drunken rants. Either way we're glad you're here and thanks for the support!BlueSky: @troublesweekly.bsky.social Threads: @troubleswrestlingpod

It's a time of growth in both AEW and New Japan with new reigns beginning, and others taking stronger root. Blue Sky: @troublesweekly.bsky.socialThreads: @troubleswrestlingpod

It's a huge week for the Sickos and AEW with not only the huge Grand Slam Australia show but a totally stacked Dynamite in Austin, Texas! There's also a little breakdown on the recent big three releases from AEW and predictions on where I think they end up. Thanks so much for the support, folks!Threads: @troubleswrestlingpodBlue Sky: @troublesweekly.bsky.social

Wrestling is getting GOOD and it feels like we will be eating very well in 2025 between the Timeless one, the Yeet master, and the Boys of Ass as well as the rest of the wacky world of wrestling. Threads: @troubleswrestlingpodBlue Sky: @troublesweekly.bsky.social

Wrestling is wild yet again this week with the emergence of The Hounds of Hell, Timeless Toni making her encore appearance, and Ospreay and Omega are starting a clubhouse.

It finally happened....Penta joined the RAW roster and I dive into the happenings surrounding that as well as the latest AEW tea and whatever Ethan Page is doing on NXT.

It's the dawn of a new age for pro 'rasslin and it's a mixed bag to say the least. Some have taken the chance and ran with it, others have stumbled with scissors but it's all good because wrestling is GREAT right now.Threads: https://www.threads.net/@troubleswrestlingpodBlue Sky: @troublesweekly.bsky.social

I've been wanting to dive into more Japanese wrestling and after such an incredible week of it, I decided it was time! I break down the Wrestle Kingdom and Wrestle Dynasty shows for NJPW, AEW, and CMLL as well as the Battle in the Valley and Athena's huge title defense over in STARDOM.Threads: @ troubleswrestlingpodBlueSky: @troublesweekly.bsky.social

It truly is a sign of the times these days that the in ring product gets better, but the online hate just stays the same. We dissect how dumb the grifters are, how dope AEW has been, and oh yeah WWE is still around and I fill you in on how they're doing.

It's week 3 of the C2 and it's lead us to Winter is Coming where we have the full breakdown of what's in store. Also, some actually good WWE news this week because New Day is mean now. KENOH vs KENTA is happening on January 1st and it's my perfect match.

This week it is all about the Continental Classic's second week of action both tonight live on Dynamite, but also Friday late night on Rampage...oh yeah and the other company did their Survivor Series show. We talk the GCW/TK gossip as well.

This is a little quick ditty about the ongoing Continental Classic tournament for AEW and to say we're stoked about it is an understatement! We break down the contenders and of course it wouldn't be this show without some wildly incorrect predictions.

After a ridiculously dumb absence, we are back and it's all about AEW Full Gear and how dope wrestling looks to be in early 2025.

This was originally a live stream so the actual show begins around 6:42.

It's been too long but the pod is back and we are again joined by the god of casual wrestling fandom, my buddy Gabe. We dive into the deep waters of how AEW's future may be, WWE's lost momentum, and why Gabe thinks Goldberg is THE MAN!

It's all about Double or Nothing in this one, mainly where AEW is going after and how good it is to see them coming up again.

We also talk the King and Queen of the Ring event in Saudi Arabia and how weird that whole deal was and my favorite thing in wrestling today the NJPW Best of the Super Juniors tournament.

It's been a wild month in the biz and nothing has been wilder than the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments that have seen tons of injuries and replacements. AEW continues to change the game with The New Elite and the new crop of top stars developing, and IMPACT got weird.
