About this listen

Wrasslin' Raw is a wrestling podcast that centers around three friends doing a deep-dive into World Wrestling Entertainment's past. Starting in 1993, Joe, Ryan, and Jason take a look back at old-school wrestling by watching the WWE show Monday Night Raw in chronological order, along with the Pay-Per-Views as they happen. Bringing together three different viewpoints that sometimes agree and sometimes don't, Wrasslin' Raw is a round table discussion centered around individual episodes and events. Our hosts give opinions on matches, wrestlers, and storylines, as well as brief glimpses into the then-contemporary world of professional sports entertainment. Fans of wrestling from their early youth, the boys decided one day to start re-watching old episodes of Raw. This started a texting discussion thread that wound up revealing some reevaluations of old favorites, new appreciation for things overlooked, and an overall richer viewpoint that has been informed by hindsight. Realizing this, the suggestion to record a podcast of the discussion was made and Wrasslin' Raw was born.

    Why is it always entertaining seeing a man get kicked in the balls? In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys view another stop in Wisconsin for Monday Night Raw, and the lawlessness continues. Hawk is now an auxiliary member of the Legion of Doom, Kane looks more like a monster than a jobber, and the Insane Clown Posse get some time in the ring. Steve Blackman looks great against X-Pac, but Chyna will be taking some time off. Let's throw Motley Crue out there too, why not?

    This episode is better than sex! In this episode of Wrasslin' Raw, the boys take in yet another iconic Monday Night Raw, where Stone Cold Steve Austin hunts Vince McMahon for sport in the lawless city of Milwaukee. Matches featuring the Rock, X-Pac, Steve Blackman, and the Headbangers are all afterthoughts, while Debra McMichael makes her on-screen debut supporting Jeff Jarrett. Don't worry Vince, you won't feel a thing- now squeal like a pig for me!
