A professional wrestling podcast hosted by Scott and Holly. Reviewing old shows and general nonsense all surrounding the sport of kings.
Back on the March Through The Manias and back to a stadium show, Wrestlemania 8 is perhaps considered one of the biggest wasted opportunities the federation let slip through their fingers. The highly anticipated showdown between Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan was not the eventual main event that was showcased on the night, With that being said, that did not mean that the entire show was a lost cause as the co-hosts dissect the '92 edition of the grandaddy of them all.
A listener requested show sees the co-hosts venture into the world of WCW for the first time on the podcast. Beach Blast '92 featured a number of memorable matches and would mark the first time Holly has ever watched a WCW show. How will the Ted Turner financed organisation mark their first impression under her critical gaze? Oh Jesse, what have we done here?!
Back on the March Through The Manias series and the co-hosts arrive at a very special event for Scott. A trip down memory lane, back when SilverVision VHS tapes kept him entertained for hours on end; simple times. This was his first Wrestlemania show and holds a special place within his heart. Does nostalgia carry this Mania further than others with it being his first, or does the review make it come crashing down and hurt inside courtesy of Holly?
For Episode 21, the podcast heads back to the shores of the UK as WWF Rebellion 2001 is brought to the table for the Win Twice dissection. Whilst shorter than your standard 3 hour PPV, the event was headlined by the biggest duo of the Attitude Era which would have been a real treat for the British fans.
The Ultimate Challenge greets your co-hosts as they return to the March Through The Manias series on the podcast. Toronto's Skydome hosted Wrestlemania 6 with the first face vs face, title vs title, main event at the Showcase of the Immortals. How would the federation transition into the new decade with a new face-painted champion at the helm of the WWF juggernaut.
For the first time on the pod, the co-hosts dip their toes into the unsanitised pool of the Extreme as ECW Living Dangerously 1999 is brought to the table for dissection. This is the first ECW show that Holly has ever seen. How will your co-host cope with the grimy and gritty presentation of Paul Heyman's rabid bunch of grapplers?
Back to the March Through The Manias series and the next stop sees the co-hosts visit Wrestlemania V. No tournament format this year (thankfully) although the scenery remained much the same. Back in the show's main event, Hogan would find himself in the unfamiliar position of challenger to the Macho Man for the WWF championship. One thing on this night was for certain, we would all witness the Mega Powers Explode!
In a slight change of pace to the usual episodes, number seventeen sees the co-hosts veer away from the PPV/PLE format to take a look at one of the most infamous editions of Monday Night RAW in history. With four title matches on the show and a game-changing injury to boot, there is certainly a lot to unpack for a one hour and forty five minute televised show.
Back to the March Through The Manias series the co-hosts go and the next stop on this journey was Wrestlemania 4. For all the good that Wrestlemania 3 did, 4 was certainly not a top tier event and felt like a step backwards for the promotion in many respects. With the podcast episode coming in at a little over three hours, it is safe to say that the PPV evoked strong feelings from Scott and Holly during the Win Twice treatment.
Episode 15 sees a listener request for WWF Judgment Day 2001 to be put on the analysis table for the Win Twice treatment. A show in the heart of the attitude era with a host of big names from the time period, would the PPV take the co-hosts back to simpler times and provide that warm, fuzzy feeling?
Back on the March Through The Manias and we arrive at the biggest spectacle to date; Wrestlemania 3. Claiming to have an attendance of over 90,000, this is arguably the Wrestlemania that cemented the PPV's status as the blow-out annual tradition that it remains to this day. The irresistible force versus the immovable object; do the co-hosts believe this show delivered when all was said and done?
Unlucky for some, the thirteenth edition of the podcast sees Holly pick WWE Armageddon 2008 for the Win Twice treatment. Clearly a fan of a certain main eventer on the card, would this have the storybook ending that Holly hoped for?
Back with the second instalment of the March Through The Manias series, the c0-hosts tackle the behemoth that was WWF Wrestlemania 2. With the show taking place in three separate arenas across the United States, there was a lot of potential hazards to navigate to pull the show off and make it a success. Perhaps so many in fact, that the actual wrestling content of the PPV took a backseat as a result of the broadcasting feat.
Episode 11 of the pod sees the co-hosts return to a show of their choosing as Scott elects WWF Armageddon 2000 to be placed upon the autopsy table, ready for dissection. A classic in the old trusty VHS collection, does the show still bring back the warm and fuzzy feelings of the attitude era?
In the first edition of the March Through The Manias series, the co-hosts go right back to 1985 and the birth of the Grandaddy of them all; Wrestlemania 1. How will Holly cope with witnessing her first wrestling show from this era and did the WWF deliver on their promise of this being "a happening" and "the wrestling extravaganza of all time"?
Episode 9 of the pod sees the co-hosts change up the traditional format slightly as they do a "live watch along" of AEW All In 2023. This edition marks the first time that the show has ventured outside the realms of WWE and has added importance to Scott and Holly who attended this event in person.
This week's edition of the show sees, after an initial hiccup, the co-hosts delve into the depths of WWE King of the Ring 2002. A PPV at the tail end of the attitude era, a host of big names featured on this card and this would prove to be the event that marked the first real statement in the rise of the Next Big Thing.
The very first WWE produced all female PLE, Evolution, capitalising on the transition from the post-diva landscape to the more progressive depiction of the female athlete. How did the event land for the co-hosts, did the promotion capture the essence they were aiming for? Holly may have a surprising take away on this one.
The Christmas mini-series sees the co-hosts tackle twelve hot topics in the world of professional wrestling to coincide with the run-in to the big day.
Episode 6 of the pod sees the second listener request up for analysis as the co-hosts tackle WWE Summerslam 2005. A stacked card in theory, with, what on paper at least, was a monumental main event match between an Icon and an Immortal. What could possibly go wrong hey?

With both co-hosts back in the country, this edition of the pod sees WWE Summerslam 2016 brought to the table for the Win Twice treatment. The first show put forth by a listener for review sees a massive four hour card ready to be dissected.
The fourth episode of the pod sees Holly select WWE Battleground 2017 to bring to the table for the Win Twice treatment. I think it would therefore be fair to ask the question, "Why, Holly? Why?"
The third episode of the pod saw Scott select WWE Survivor Series 2001 to bring to the table for that unmistakable Win Twice treatment. What will Holly make of the culmination to the WWF vs Alliance storyline?
The first official episode of the pod sees Scott and Holly bring ECW One Night Stand 2006 to the table for the Win Twice expert review. A first for Holly who had not before seen the show in any format.
