The boys are back with another loaded show
Tony is back from Wildwood, Kevin is back from Boston & Matt is right where we left him last week.
We are joined by the Pale Pro Champion “The Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins to talk about his upcoming defense against Mysterious Q, his time in AEW, the upcoming CYN event, being in a relationship with a wrestler and much more. This is a great interview with Chandler and if you’re not familiar with him, this is a great introduction. Get to know him, he’s going to be a star in this business.
After Chandler we talk a little about 1995 WWF, The Headshrinkers & Man Mountain Rock before jumping into the NWA. We are on the road to NWA 74. Tim Storm gets gifted a title shot, Tony is a bit annoyed with Powerrr and we talk about Billy’s comments about Empowered. Plus we run down the NWA 74 Card.
We jump around to a variety of topics, the AEW Trio’s Tournament, Kenny Omega, the WWE Women’s Tag Tournament, the NXT Women’s Tag Champs, Clash at the Castle, Impact Wrestling, Punk/Page & some NJPW
We take a quick break before going Down the Aisle. We end up at the Boston Garden in 1977 for the WWWF. On the surface it doesn’t seem like there is much meat on the bone, but the boys have a blast going over the card. As a bonus, they also hit on some JCP from this day in 1986.

It’s Monday Night and you know what that means, another episode from your favorite podcast.
We are without Tony tonight, so our good friend and fellow podcaster Kevin Rouge from the Year of Pod sits in on 3rd Mic.
The boys catch up with what they have been up to this weekend, and Matt gets super annoyed as he has to figure out how to play a video from Tony, with the committee’s announcement on the next Can You Beat That Challenger.
After Matt loses his mind, they transition into the return on Dexter Lumas, the direction the WWE is going, College athletes vs Indie talent, and Vince McMahon in NXT.
We are then joined by The GutterSnake Izzy James ahead of his Texas Bullrope match against Kaun for Pale Pro Wrestling. We talk about the wrestling landscape in Dallas, Jeff Jarrett, his move set, The Misfits, Kiss, & much more. It’s a great conversation and an excellent introduction to Izzy James if you are not familiar with him.
After a quick break the boys talk some AEW Quake at the Lake, and this conversation leads us down a crazy aisle, as we talk Giant Gonzalez, The Yetti, Torito and more. It’s really the best example of us just talking about random wrestling stuff. Kevin hit’s us with a few things from Impact’s Emergence Show before we get to Kevin’s Top 5.

The boys are joined by Kyle Hessler, booker and promoter of Pale Pro Wrestling in the Dallas Fort Worth Area. They discuss a variety of topics, the transition from MMA Fighter to Promoter, scouting talent, championship reigns and more. Pale Pro has a show coming up on September 3rd, be sure to check it out. PalePro.com for tickets and more info
After Kyle exits, Tony brings up the Sasha Banks photo saga from the weekend. Matt has some off the wall takes, and may even be stretching it with his argument. We get breaking news that Rocky Jones had passed away, so we spend sometime talking about him & ECPW.
We end up talking about the WWE in a positive light, something we haven’t done in a very long time. Kross’s return, who should take the title from Roman, HHH already improving the product, Women’s Tag Title Tournament and more. Tony hates AEW and the Trios Title, we talk some Quake on the Lake, AEW Fight Forever and some more. We bounce around with some NWA & Impact talk, the Lex Lugar documentary and the news that VICE is brining us a new show based on the territories.
After Patreon Plugs we jump into this week’s Wizards Rewind. Back to August 1997, the ECW Arena, Born to Be Wired. Matt and Tony aren’t super excited about the show, and Matt 100% romanticized it since it was his first trip to Philly. After spending a good amount of time talking about the show, and Kevin opening our eyes, the boys decide that it was a pretty good show. We talk a bunch of ECW & it’s a great discussion and review.

It's Monday Night and You Know What That Means
The boys are back to talk all things wrestling. Tony Play's a Thunderfrog liner AGAIN, to kick off the show, and the boys are disappointed. So we decide to play a bunch of liners to see what could have been played instead of Thunderfrog.
From there we catch up with each other, Tony's got a new bathroom with a toilet as high as a tennis judges chair, Matt has a new deck and Kevin has a bunch of questions.
We jump right into the Ric Flair match announcement.
Raw reportedly going to TV 14, does this mean a new era for wrestling?
Tony brings up Mick Foley signing a new Legacy deal, and we ponder on if the Vince McMahon headlines will have any impact.
We hit on MLW Fusion's last episode of the year, a jam packed show with Hammerstone vs Holiday
We talk some AEW, and finally get to the root of why Tony isn't the biggest fan of AEW. We hit on some Dynamite and Rampage, plus some ROH Death Before Dishonor.
We wrap up the 1st half of the show with some NWA talk. Matt is hot about the Mike Knox thing and Tim Storm.
Back from the commercial break we talk some Impact Wrestling. Chelsea Green, Mickie James, Violent By Design, Honor No More, Mike Bailey's teeth and more.
Some G1 Climax talk from Night's 1 & 2
Then it's onto our Wizards Rewind. Back to Superstars of Wrestling from June 13, 1987. It's a loaded show with lots of stuff for us to talk about. Bad Promos, Title Changes, and more.
If you are a wrestling fan, this is the podcast for you.

Monday Night, and You Know What That Means
Another episode of your favorite wrestling podcast
Right from the start, Matt is annoyed at the committee, he want's to challenge for the Can You Beat That Title. We catch up on the week that was for us, Kevin's computer kicked the bucket, Tony & Matt had uneventful weeks.
This leads us to the latest in the Vince McMahon news. He's paying 4 women much more to keep quiet then he did for the tape libraries of WCW & ECW. This leads us on an interesting conversation, then it turns into to what would you do for 7.5 Million Dollars, and what would you do for 1/2 a mortgage payment.
From Vince we go to Jordynne Grace and the Chris Benoit tweet. We discuss the tweet, what she implies & cover the apology. It's a conversation that covers it all, and it's something that really makes you think.
We are then joined by the Dominican Destroyer Vargas ahead of his huge match against Brian Myers. We talk Create a Pro/WrestlePro, tag team vs Singles, the New York Jets, and what to expect from him on July 24th and much more. It's a great introduction to Vargas
We hit on a few notes from AEW, New TNT Champion and get Tony annoyed before taking a quick break
Back from break we talk a little NWA, Tim Storm, Impact Wrestling, Kushida, Time Splitters, CHAOS, Davey Richards, MLW, and of course the MLW Top 10 before The Can You Beat That Champion Christian Rocco joins us to take on Kevin.
It's an amazing battle and something you need to listen too.
We bring the train into the station with some light wrestling chatter

The Two Man Army starts off the festivities with stories of the July 4th weekend. After a few minutes Mims joins the show with stories of his injuries from his match with Tyrus at Alwayz Ready, as well as his recovery. We dive into his history with Crimson and becoming involved with Tried N True Wrestling, his love for the history of the NWA, and how much he loves the Television title. Plus we learn that Mims used to play Smash Brothers competitively as well. After a short break, the guys cover the NWA and MLW. Tony was not happy with Fusion from last week, and Matt joins the show to mostly concur. Unfortunately, Matt disconnected the broadcast, which leads to Kevin and Tony starting the show over. We find out who the first challenger is to Christian Rocco for the CYBT title, we talk a little WWE Money in the Bank, and Kevin hits us with two Top Fives.
