"That is a hopeless task, And YOU…are a moron."
There have been many characters talked about, and showcased, over the course of our 7+ year run on the DEADLOCK Podcast. It's rare nowadays that we run into someone that we at least have not heard of one time, but on this episode of WWF Sunday Night Heat from March 25th, 2001, we are introduced to the man known as...George The Germ.
For weeks, George has been trying to find himself on this show. He wanted to be a rapper, he wanted to be a ninja, and now he wants to be HARDCORE. What better way to try to learn what being a hardcore wrestler is all about than to try to be under the wing of the current WWF Hardcore Champion, Raven? Raven wants nothing to do with The Germ, especially when in a week, he'll have to face The Big Show & Kane in a Triple Threat match at Wrestlemania X7. But, Raven drags George around all night, putting him through different tests to see just how HARDCORE he truly can be.
Yes, you didn't read that wrong. Arguably the biggest Wrestlemania of all time is just a week away, and Raven is trying to teach George The Germ how to be hardcore. Things are looking up for Raven, and this show in general. In-between these segments, we do get a lot of hype for the upcoming Wrestlemania show, especially when it comes to Stone Cold Steve Austin taking on The Rock. Long are the days of either of these ever coming close to stepping foot on this show.
We do get some matches, as well, if you can believe it! Crash Holly defends his WWF Light Heavyweight Championship, that he just won last week with the help of Molly Holly, against the former champion, Dean Malenko's, friend & tag partner, Perry Saturn. Test, the WWF European Champion, steps in the ring to do battle against Haku, in a match where the biggest part of it is how many times we see WWF New York. The Hardy Boyz take on Kaientai in a tag team match, and technically, our main event is Raven...versus George The Germ!
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

"Dario Cueto owes me ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS..."
A special back-to-back Lucha Underground edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast! Last week, we took a look at Episode 5 & the Boyle Heights Street Fight, and this week we're moving on to Episode 5 of Season 1, titled "The Key".
Johnny Mundo has had enough of Dario Cueto's shenanigans, and he's decided to take matters into his own hands. Cornering Dario in a bathroom, Mundo lets it be known that he's prepared to kick Dario's ass every time he sees him, which leads to El Jefe begging for him to not, and telling him that he will get him his $100,000 in cash...if he doesn't beat him up. Mundo agrees, but he takes THE KEY around Cueto's neck as insurance.
That isn't the last we see of Johnny Mundo on this episode, as later in the night, he comes back out to demand Dario to bring him his money in the ring. Big Ryck gets involved, as well as Prince Puna, and all three men have a combination of fights, until Dario makes an appearance. Dario lets them all know that the $100,000 will be given to the match that can win the main event of next weeks show...IN A LADDER MATCH!
But, that's next week; on tonight's episode, we have a main event of Chavo Guerrero Jr. teaming up with overall troublemaker Pentagon Jr. They're teamed up to take on the duo of Sexy Star & Rey Fenix. Son of Havoc is back with Ivelisse, and he has another challenge in front of him in the form of lucha legend, Pimpinela Escarlata! Also, Mil Muertes continues his streak of destruction, as he takes on local California talent, Famous B!

"Where do we go from here?"
The boys are back in The Temple, as we are back to talk about some more Lucha Underground! We're onto Episode 5 of Season 1, which brings us a big main event. It's going to be Prince Puma taking on Big Ryck (and definitely not Mr. Cisco & Cortez Castro) in the first ever BOYLE HEIGHTS STREET FIGHT! No rules, only chaos.
Chavo Guerrero Jr. is hated by everyone. Not just here in Lucha Underground, but seemingly all over the world. Ever since he took out Blue Demon Jr, Chavo has had a target on his back from everyone in Mexico City. Tonight, Sexy Star looks to get her revenge in a one-on-one match, after Chavo betrayed her and bashed her head in with a steel chair.
Son of Havoc continues to look for his first win here in The Temple, with Ivelisse by his side. Dario Cueto has given him his biggest challenge yet; the legend himself, Mascarita Sagrada!
Drago got his first win in Lucha Underground against the debuting King Cuerno, and on this episode, we get to see if he can continue to stack up the wins against a man that has been undefeated thus far in The Temple; the man from beyond the grave, Mil Muertes! Of course, King Cuerno has his eyes on this one.
As mentioned, Prince Puma & Big Ryck have a crazy main event here, which includes one of the most insane dives of all time from Johnny Mundo!
Also, the return of the DEADLOCK Q&A!

"And if it wasn't for the chili I ate today, I wouldn't have spent 3 hours in the restroom!"
2008 is a special year in wrestling, especially for the WWE, and especially during this time. WWE just completed another Draft Lottery, where Superstars from RAW, SmackDown, and even ECW all made their way to different shows. But, that didn't come without controversy, as Vince McMahon had a whole stage fall on top of him, which has left RAW without a leader. This, of course, has lead to complete chaos on the show. Lighting rigs are falling, fans are running around backstage, and everyone is left to fend for themselves!
On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we're taking a look back at one of the biggest moments of 2008, where John Cena, with the help of Cryme Tyme, destroy JBL's limo and spray-paint "JBL Is Poopy" on the hood. You remember it, we remember it, and now we all must re-live it.
Last week on RAW, JBL challenged CM Punk for the World Championship, but not before he had John Cena thrown out of the building, which leads to Cena getting his revenge back this week, with the help of Shad & JTG, to destroy & spray-paint his limo. The CTC is here! Maybe. For a couple weeks.
Also on RAW last week, CM Punk cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase for the first time, on Edge, and became the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Punk now has a lot of targets, and tonight, we'll find out who the #1 contender is for his championship. After an opening segment that lasts forever, we have ourselves a main event; John Cena vs Batista vs JBL vs Kane in a fatal four way match to decide who will face CM Punk at the Great American Bash!
As mentioned, the WWE Draft Lottery took place, and we're going to see some of the newly drafted superstars make their debuts on RAW tonight. Kofi Kingston, who won the Intercontinental Championship from Chris Jericho at Night of Champions, takes on Charlie Haas, who wants to end his career. Rey Mysterio makes his RAW debut by taking on one of the top guys in the company, Santino Marella. Mickie James & the newest RAW Diva, Kelly Kelly, team up to take on Jillian Hall & the second newest RAW Diva, Layla. Snitsky, who is upset that CM Punk is the World Champion, gets a 1 on 1 non-title match against the champ.
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

"MTV stands for More Tazz Victims!"
On October 1st, 2000, Sunday Night Heat changed networks, as the WWF moved the show from the USA Network to MTV! You know when you're debuting on a new network, you have to bring it, and...they definitely brought a lot here.
The synergy between WWF & MTV immediately begins here, as we're introduced to two of the hosts of the show: DJ Skribble & Rebecca Buding! Their microphones don't work too great, but thankfully, Michael Cole & Tazz's mics work just fine. This is the first part-time gig for Tazz on commentary, and it seems like he's trying something new. For the entire episode. Non-stop.
We're promised some big matches here, including two title matches & a tables match! Dean Malenko, with the ladies, defends the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship against Taka Michinoku., and Eddie Guerrero defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Road Dogg. In our main event, we have a Tag Team Tables match between The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley) and the Right To Censor (The Goodfather & Bull Buchanan).
We're also joined by Stone Cold Steve Austin, who just happened to be in the neighborhood, and he wanted to see Disturbed play some loud music, so they do! Disturbed perform their Top-10 hit "Stupify", before Stone Cold tells them they should also play his theme song! Tazz has a lot to say about Stone Cold being here, on Tazz's show, and Austin confronts him about it by the end of the night.

"Your name is Hugh Morris...What?"
One word, said by one man, on one fateful night in 2001 changed wrestling audiences forever. On this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at the episode of WWF RAW Is War from August 13, 2001, where Stone Cold Steve Austin brings three members of the Alliance in, dresses them down, and introduces his new catchphrase..."What?"
We are in the middle of The Invasion, and The Alliance are getting ready to go to war with the WWF once again at Summerslam, which is 6 days away. Stone Cold Steve Austin tries to give The Alliance another pep talk, telling them that if they all want to be as famous as Stone Cold, they have to try a little harder. Especially, guys like Hugh Morris, Raven, & Taz. Austin brow beats the three of them, and physically beats Taz in the process. Taz, who Austin insists takes his shirt off so he can whip him with his belt, stands up for himself, which leads to members of ECW & WCW to jump him, and hold him down for Stone Cold to go to work on him.
In another famous segment in WWF history, Chris Jericho comes out to interrupt Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley & Rhyno, and proceeds to coin the phrase "Let The Boobies Hit The Floor". Jericho isn't alone, though, as the back & forth between Jericho & Stephanie brings out Booker T, as well as The Rock, who can't help himself when it comes to tossing around insults.
A few of the Alliance members take what Stone Cold said to heart earlier, like The Hurricane, who was once Shane Helms, and Shawn Stasiak, who was once known as Meat & Mr. Perfect. Shawn Stasiak promises Austin that he's going to make a statement tonight, but ends up running into a suit of armor in William Regal's office. Hurricane, on the other hand, steps up to Kurt Angle, who insults The Green Lantern. That just ends up with him getting launched across a table.
Speaking of Kurt Angle, The Alliance's Rob Van Dam challenged him to a WWF Hardcore Title match, and Kurt accepts! Also on this show, we have a bunch of matches, including some WWF vs WCW & ECW contests. Tajiri takes on Albert, Spike Dudley takes on Test, and Lance Storm & Justin Credible face Edge & Christian.
We also have two big matches on this one, as Kane & Undertaker team up to face Chuck Palumbo & Sean O'Haire in a Steel Cage Match! Of course, in our main event, we see The Rock & Chris Jericho team up to take on Rhyno & Booker T.
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

"I think you know the guy..."
We're on the road to WWF's Royal Rumble 2000, and we're right in the middle of the McMahon-Helmsley Era. Triple H & Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley are running the show, and have been trying to make everyone's lives miserable in the process. But, there may be one man that can stop his reign of terror as WWF Champion...
On this episode of WWF SmackDown from January 13, 2000, Mankind is officially back in the WWF. He had been fired by Triple H & Stephanie, and thanks to The Rock & the roster threatening to all quit the company, Mick Foley was reinstated. But, he's here tonight to let Triple H know that Mankind just isn't tough enough to face a guy like HHH, especially after what he did to him on RAW (putting him through the announce table with a pedigree). But, he does know a guy that is crazy enough to take his place, and that man...is CACTUS JACK! A legendary moment in WWF history.
D-Generation X also walked out on Triple H on Monday during an 8-Man Tag Team Match, and Triple H has decided that it's up to him to fix the problems within the group, so he books a few matches for tonight. The New Age Outlaws will compete in two separate Handicap, No Disqualification matches. One of them is against Bradshaw, and one of them is against Faarooq. If either of them interfere in the others match, they will lose their shot at the WWF Tag Team Championships at the Royal Rumble.
X-Pac, on the other hand, will team with Triple H tonight in the main event to face The Big Show & The Rock! Speaking of The Rock, he has an interview for the first time ever with the debuting Jonathan Coachman on this episode, in an all-timer segment.
We get a bunch of matches on this show, as well! Kurt Angle & Steve Blackman team up to face Edge & Christian. Too Cool & Rikishi team up to take on Hardcore Holly, Crash Holly & Al Snow. Gangrel goes one-on-one with Test, and The Hardy Boyz (Matt Hardy & Jeff Hardy) take on the team of Big Bossman & Prince Albert! Somehow, that's not all. Godfather & D'Lo Brown team up to face The Headbangers, and Chris Jericho takes on Kane!

"If you rock like me..."
It's a new era for WWE SmackDown, and that era begins tonight! It is the debut episode of SmackDown on MyNetworkTV, and with that comes, of course, a very 2008 episode. We have new graphics, a new intro, a new theme song, and an ALL-STAR lineup. So they say.
50 of the biggest and best stars of the time are scheduled to be on this episode of SmackDown, which is being ran & booked by...The Big Show?! Big Show has taken command of the show, as Vickie Guerrero was hit with a TOMBSTONE by The Undertaker last week.
We get a lot of Champion vs Champion matches on this show, like Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella against United States Champion Shelton Benjamin, and Women's Champion Beth Phoenix takes on Diva's Champion Michelle McCool in a Lumberjack Match. Also, the RAW Tag Team Champions, Cody Rhodes & Ted Dibiase, team up with Manu, to face the Smackdown Tag Team Champions, Carlito & Primo Colon, with CM Punk!
Speaking of the All-Star lineup, the show opens up with a big ALL STAR 8 Man Tag Team Match! Jeff Hardy, Finlay, Batista, & Rey Mysterio take on Kane, The Brian Kendrick, JBL, & MVP.
Big Show, who is in charge, as well were all aware of, makes a big match for this show. Chavo Guerrero has to pay for not helping Vickie Guerrero last week, and Big Show puts him in a special match. Chavo faces both Mark Henry & The Great Khali in a handicap match.
In the main event, all three brands top champions face off in a triple threat match. RAW's Chris Jericho, the World Heavyweight Champion, SmackDown's Triple H, the WWE Champion, & ECW's Matt Hardy, the ECW Champion, will meet in a Champion of Champions match!

"You guys talk about being students of The Game..."
Somehow, there are way more major moments in WWF history that went down on Heat than we ever realized! On this episode of the podcast, we're going to take a look back at this episode of WWF Sunday Night HEAT from July 25, 1999. This is the first time we're covering an episode of Heat that takes place on the same night as a PPV!
WWF Sunday Night Heat would often air one hour before a Pay-Per-View, live on television. This is taking place before the Fully Loaded 1999 PPV, which is going to be main-evented by the "End of an Era" First Blood Match between Stone Cold Steve Austin & The Undertaker. If Austin wins, Vince McMahon is gone from the WWF. If Undertaker wins, Austin can never challenge for the WWF Championship again. We hear from the fans throughout the night on who they think will win, and we also hear from Stone Cold. Briefly. Very briefly.
But, the reason we're checking out this show surprisingly is not because of any Stone Cold & Vince McMahon shenanigans. We're watching this to see the infamous interview between Jim Ross & Triple H, where Triple H proclaims himself as "The Game". He's getting prepared for a match against The Rock at Fully Loaded 1999, and he has a lot to get off his chest, and a lot of swear words to go along with it. It's time to shoot, jack.
We also get another look at the feud between both sides of D-Generation X, as Billy Gunn & Chyna have a lot to say about X-Pac & Road Dogg.
Of course, we can't forget about all the action-packed matches that come with this mini episode of RAW that they call Heat! Val Venis takes on Joey Abs of the Mean Street Posse, and Test looks for revenge. Meat just got ran through by Terri Runnels, and she demands that he have a match against The Godfather. In our main event, The Corporate Ministry's Viscera takes on former Ministry member, Christian!

"Here's to the Main Event Mafia. Born Tonight. Amen."
It's time to CROSS THE LINE...that separates the iMPACT Zone from the rest of the world. That's right, for the first time ever, TNA iMPACT is taking place outside of the iMPACT Zone, as they make their debut at the world famous Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas! Not only is this show live, but this is the first time TNA is broadcasting in HD.
Mick Foley & Jeff Jarrett have been talking about a huge announcement, and Mick Foley is going to make that announcement here tonight. In fact, they talk about this announcement for the entirety of this episode, which means it has to be huge, right? Kurt Angle has gone insane ever since his loss to Jeff Jarrett at Bound For Glory, and he also has an announcement. He says that this announcement is even bigger & better than Mick Foley's, and maybe he's right, because he announces that himself, Booker T, Kevin Nash, & Sting are now the Main Event Mafia.
Speaking of announcements, Booker T has one as well. What a great night for fans of announcements. Booker has been carrying a briefcase around for weeks, and finally, he reveals that inside of it is the TNA Legends Championship, which he is now the holder of. Christian Cage doesn't really like this (or TNA, for that matter), and he has a challenge for Booker at the next PPV, Turning Point.
We can't forget about the tag division, and we get an...interesting tag team match on this. It is the "Hardcore Tag Team Text Gauntlet". The fans can text a number, and that's going to have something to do with this match. We're not sure anyone ever truly understands what is going on with this one, but Team 3D, LAX, Beer Money, and Abyss & Matt Morgan all have to figure this one out for themselves.
There are also TWO championship matches on this show! Sheik Abdul Bashir defends his recently won X-Division Championship against Jay Lethal, and Taylor Wilde defends her newly won TNA Women's Knockout's Championship against former champion, Awesome Kong. These matches get just as much time as you'd expect, since they aren't announcements and matches don't matter as much as those!
Of course, our big main event for the evening is AJ Styles teaming up with Samoa Joe to take on Kevin Nash & Sting.
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

"3D just did us all in!"
On September 3rd, 1999, TNN aired the second (2nd) episode of ECW, which is the first episode that had any brand-new matches for the program, as the first episode was a compilation of matches from previously aired pay-per-views and shows. Now, it's time to see what Paul Heyman & ECW actually have to offer!
The timing of the events that unfold on this episode are pretty crazy, and it's all jam-packed into a 45 minute show. The ECW fans already know that The Dudley Boyz are on their way out, and the Dudleyz themselves have confirmed it. They also say that they are going to not only win the ECW World Tag Team Championships for an 8th time, but they're going to take them to the WWF, and throw them down on national television.
The Dudleyz are successful in regaining the Tag Team Titles from Spike Dudley & Balls Mahoney, but they aren't going to get away with those titles that easily. Tommy Dreamer steps up to the challenge, and at first, takes on both Buh Buh (Bubba) Ray & D-Von in a handicap match for the titles. But surprisingly, Dreamer DID have a partner, he just didn't know it. Raven makes his return to ECW, after having just gotten his release from WCW, and picks up the win, and the tag team titles!
We also get an ECW World Heavyweight Title match to start off this show, as current champion Taz, who won't be around for much longer, takes on Yoshihiro Tajiri, who is accompanied by Steve Corino & Jack Victory (in a wheelchair, of course). We're also shown a music video showcasing Lance Storm, which is introduced by Rob Zombie?!

"EVEN MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY BOUGHT IT!"
Somehow, this is an episode we have never covered before, but it is a moment that we have referenced many, many times over the years.
On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we're taking a look back at the infamous episode of WWF RAW Is War from June 7th, 1999, where Vince McMahon is revealed to be the GREATER POWER! Or, the higher power. It really depends on who you ask.
For 3 months, The Undertaker has been referencing this 'greater power', and last week on RAW, Stone Cold Steve Austin got his first look at who this was, and now tonight, the whole world will find out who it is. Vince McMahon unveils himself to be this Greater Power, leading to one of the most memorable promos of all time. Of course, things don't work out for Vince, as his wife, Linda McMahon, and daughter, Stephanie McMahon, both own just as much of the company as Vince does. Linda & Stephanie decide to give up their percentages of the company, and give them to Stone Cold Steve Austin, who is now the new CEO!
With it being the Attitude Era, there is obviously a ton more going on here. Stone Cold tells The Union (Ken Shamrock, Big Show & Test) that they can all face whoever they want tonight. As mention, Big Show picks The Undertaker. Ken Shamrock, who was supposed to face Jeff Jarrett in a Lion's Den Match, instead picks Vince McMahon to face in that match. Test picks Stephanie...to take on a date!
Stone Cold also puts Triple H in a "Cast" Match against The Rock, and Shane McMahon in a handicap match, against two men that he screwed out of the WWF Tag Team Championships the week before; Kane & X-Pac!
This is also the episode where The Big Show faces The Undertaker in the main event for the WWF Championship, and chokeslams The Undertaker through the ring. An absolutely insane moment to cap off an already ridiculous episode.

"I love Hershey's Chocolate so much, I wrote a little poem about it!"
In the history of this podcast, we have reviewed some of the biggest moments in wrestling history, but somehow, this one has not been reviewed by us. On this episode, we talk about one of the most important moments in this sport, and that is the time that Heidenreich came to the ring with a gigantic chocolate bar, with chocolate all over his face. The WWE didn't know what they had, and it is one of the times that the company didn't capitalize on a defining moment.
We're in Hershey, Pennsylvania for this episode of WWE SmackDown on June 16th, 2005, and the WWE Draft is in full swing. Week by week, a new person is being revealed as having switched shows, and Teddy Long is waiting for the whole episode for his pick to show up. In the end, we find out that Randy Orton has been traded to SmackDown from RAW, as he comes in to attack The Undertaker during his main event match with JBL.
Eddie Guerrero recently turned his back on Rey Mysterio, and is going out of his way to let everyone know about it. So much so, that last week, he interrupted a match between Akio & Paul London just to talk about this, leading to him attacking both men. That sets up a match for this episode, where Eddie Guerrero takes on Paul London!
Carlito's Cabana is back, and his guests this week are Booker T & Sharmell, who have been having to deal with "the perverted" Kurt Angle. Kurt has been targeting Booker's wife for weeks, but now that he's been drafted to RAW, the pair no longer have to deal with him. Carlito is here to give his thoughts on this, and that...that is cool.
Also on this show, Chris Benoit, who recently was traded to SmackDown, takes on The Cabinet's Doug Basham (not Danny Basham). Also representing The Cabinet, Orlando Jordan defends the United States Championship against Hershey's favorite son, Hardcore Holly.
Of course, we can't forget the real main event; Heidenreich is here with a huge chocolate bar, and reads a poem for the fans here in Hershey, PA. You'll never guess in a million years how any of this goes.

"If 10,000 little Hulksters couldn't stop me, you sure can't!"
Hulk Hogan is known for a lot of things, with one of them being his iconic mustache. On this episode of WCW Monday Nitro from October 2nd, 1995, we see the beginning of the end of Hulkamania. At least, that's what The Taskmaster & The Dungeon of Doom thought.
The Giant has set out to destroy Hulkamania, with instructions from The Taskmaster, The Dungeon Master, and the rest of the Dungeon of Doom. The Giant has already injured Hulk Hogan's neck, and Jimmy Hart has already warned The Hulkster that he's in no condition to take on The Giant right now. But, that isn't going to stop Hogan from trying to get revenge here tonight. Little does he know, Kevin Sullivan had a plan. That plan? Dress up like an old lady, and attack both Hogan & Jimmy Hart, before shaving his mustache off his face!
We also have two HUGE main event matches on this episode, one that starts the show, and one that ends the show.
We open the show with "Macho Man" Randy Savage taking on Lex Luger, in a high stakes match. If Luger loses, he says he will quit the WCW, even though he just got here about a month ago. At the end of the show, we see a grudge match between two former best friends, as "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair takes on "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson. Of course, Arn isn't alone, and he has Brian Pillman waiting to take out Flair at any moment.
Also on this show, we see, for the first time ever on Nitro, a 1-on-1 encounter between Eddie Guerrero & Dean Malenko, which is almost ruined by a Disco Inferno entrance.

"The polygraph says... YOU'RE A DAMN LIAR!"
The 60 Minute Adrenaline Rush is back, as are the boys! We're back to 2006 TNA, where things are looking up for the six-sided brand. Kurt Angle has just left the WWE and is on his way in, but before we can figure out what the plans are for him, TNA looks ahead to it's next PPV, No Surrender, as well as their biggest event of the year, Bound For Glory.
Jeff Jarrett, once again, has been a controversial figure here in TNA, especially as the reigning NWA World Heavyweight Champion. Jim Cornette knows that Jarrett has been behind all of the recent shady situations surrounding him regaining or retaining the NWA World Championship. Like when Earl Hebner helped him win the title, or when Christian smashed Sting with a guitar in his last defense to help him retain. What about Larry Zbyszko's involvement, with him being on the championship committee?
Jarrett swears that all of these are coincidences, and even agrees to a polygraph test to find out if he's telling the truth. Cornette wasn't going to let that opportunity go, so here tonight, Jeff Jarrett will be connected to a lie detector test and asked about all of these incidents. Thankfully, Jeff has some help, as "Showtime" Eric Young has an Uncle from Canada that has never failed a polygraph test, and Eric is going to show Jarrett how to beat this one.
LAX, Homicide & Hernandez, recently won the NWA World Tag Team Championships from America's Most Wanted, and are here to murder The Mack Brothers to show just how dominant they are, as they prepare for the first ever Ultimate X Tag Team Championship Match at No Surrender against AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels.
Speaking of America's Most Wanted, Chris Harris & James Storm have been having communication problems as of late, which lead to them losing the tag titles. Tonight, they'll team up with Kazarian & Maverick Matt Bentley to take on The James Gang (BG & Kip James), Norman Smiley, & Shark Boy.
In the main event, we get a special challenge match against two guys that have been recently at odds, as Christian Cage steps into the ring with Ron "The Truth" Killings. Also, we hear from Shane Douglas & his "Newly Franchised" Naturals, Chase Stevens & Andy Douglas. Plus, The X-Division loves Jackass Number Two!

"But my name's Billy..."
After having such a good time reviewing WWF Heat recently, we decided to jump back in for one of the more infamous moments in the history of this show. A moment that we didn't even realize took place on Heat! On July 11th, 1999, The Rock showed up on Heat to deliver a promo that would change the course of Billy Gunn's career, and is still talked about to this day.
"Mr. Ass" Billy Gunn has been attacking The Rock over the past few weeks, and The Rock finally has something to say about it here on The Rock's Show, Heat!
Of course, there is a lot more going on somehow. We're on the road to WWF Fully Loaded, and The Big Show has drawn some attention from a lot of the boys in the back. More specifically, The Undertaker & his brother Kane have seemingly re-united to take down the big man, and he's here tonight to put a stop to it. He even debuts a new catchphrase!
Also on this show, The Brood are looking to get back to their winning ways as Edge, Gangrel & Christian take on three members of The Corporate Ministry in Big Bossman, Viscera, & Mideon. The Brood cut another fantastic promo, but at the end of this one, The Brood seemingly is no more, as Gangrel turns his back on Edge.
We can't forget about all the HUGE matches on this show, as well. The Hardy Boyz defend their WWF Tag Team Championships against Droz & Prince Albert. Billy Gunn (Mr. Ass) goes one-on-one with Test, while Shane McMahon & The Mean Street Posse watch from commentary. No one wants to wrestle Al Snow, so he comes up with his own match against WWF Super Astros best in Max Mini, Mini Nova, Battalion, & El Torito. Our big main event is a NO HOLDS BARRED match with Bradshaw, who has a concussion, and Kane!

"Jump in!"
We have made it to Episode 360 of the DEADLOCK Podcast, and we thought we'd combine our love for wrestling with our love for the Xbox 360 for this review. We decided to go back to the night before the release of the Xbox 360, and see what the WWE was doing with their flagship show, Monday Night RAW, at the time. The Xbox 360 released on November 22, 2005, and this episode of RAW is from November 21, 2005!
We're on the road to Survivor Series 2005, and this is RAW's go-home show before the "big" PPV. RAW & Smackdown are fighting for brand supremacy, as they always loved to have, and even across the pond they'll still make sure to go out of their way to attack each-other before the Survivor Series event. This episode of RAW takes place in England, and all of the members from the Team RAW vs Team Smackdown match scheduled for Survivor Series are here to battle it out.
Team RAW's Shawn Michaels, Kane, Big Show, Chris Masters & Carlito go to war with Team Smackdown's Batista, JBL, Rey Mysterio, Randy Orton & Bobby Lashley at the beginning of this show, in the parking lot no less! This leaves Batista laying on the windshield of a car, seemingly costing Team Smackdown their World Champion.
Triple H & Ric Flair are set to do battle at Survivor Series in a Last Man Standing match, and Triple H swears that he will end Flair's career this Sunday. To prove what he's capable of, he shows what he can do against one of his greatest foes; Val Venis. The crowd here in England are so excited!
Kurt Angle is preparing for his WWE Championship match against John Cena at the PPV, but luckily for him, Eric Bischoff has granted him his very own referee for every match he has now; Daivari! Daivari is even his referee here tonight in Kurt's rematch against former team mate, Shelton Benjamin. Cena, of course, does his best to embarrass Kurt Angle by attempting to interview the roster, The Boogeyman, & fans to see if they think Kurt Angle sucks, in a segment that goes on for 15 years.
Also on this show, Mickie James takes on Candice Michelle, which leads to Trish Stratus being KIDNAPPED, and Tajiri takes on Rob Conway...kinda. In our main event, Team RAW's Shawn Michaels takes on Team SmackDown's JBL in a Lumberjack match, with all of the participants from the Survivor Series match playing the role of Lumberjacks.

"We got any birthday cake left?"
We are two (2) days removed from one of WCW's most unique PPV events, Hog Wild 1996, and history was changed forever. "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan defeated The Giant to win the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, before spray-painting the title with 'NWO', one of the most iconic looks for a championship ever.
This episode of WCW Monday Nitro took place on August 12th, 1996, and we're looking at the fall-out from that very PPV. The WCW management & wrestlers are all trying to figure out how to combat the trio of Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash & Scott Hall, while being aware of the threat of more members joining, as is teased by the members of the New World Order throughout the show.
Sting & Lex Luger, who had a controversial loss to The Outsiders at Hog Wild due to potential shenanigans involving referee Nick Patrick, call out Kevin Nash & Scott Hall for a match on this show.
Speaking of controversial losses, The Steiner Brothers are here for a return match against Harlem Heat, who beat them at Hog Wild in a Tag Team Championship match after some interference from bother Sister Sherri & Colonel Parker. Also in a return match, Rey Mysterio Jr defends the WCW Cruiserweight Championship against The Ultimate Dragon (not Ultimo!).
We also get a huge WCW United States Championship match, as Ric Flair takes on "Macho Man" Randy Savage.

"Bossman...take the keys."
We're in uncharted territory here on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, as for only the 2nd time ever, we take a look back at an episode of WWF Sunday Night HEAT! This episode of Heat is from May 9th, 1999, which just so happens to be the night before the highest rated episode of WWF RAW is WAR ever. Surely, all of the people that tuned in for RAW were just so fired up from this episode of Heat, so what could have possibly been going on?!
Tonight, we're going to hear from The Rock! That's all you need in 1999. The Rock & Stone Cold were both thrown off the stage by the Corporate Ministry's Undertaker & Triple H on the last episode of RAW, which lead to The Rock breaking his arm. He'll be here tonight to address that, after we get through all of the real stars of the WWF making appearances first.
D-Generation X have been going through it, as not only has Triple H & Chyna left the group to join the Corporation, now the Corporate Ministry, but Billy Gunn has also turned his back on long-time partners X-Pac & Road Dogg. Kane & X-Pac are the current WWF Tag Team Champions, and Kane is going to do anything he can to get his hands on Billy Gunn. All night.
The Union is here to get revenge on the Corporate Ministry. Ken Shamrock, Big Show, Test & Mankind do what they can to stop the likes of Big Bossman, Viscera, and Mideon from attacking any more people. Big Show even has a match tonight against Mideon!
We also can't forget whatever is going on with Al Snow. Hardcore Holly was pinned by Al Snow, who was holding Head, to win the WWF Hardcore Championship. Al is convinced that Head is the champion, so Hardcore Holly has gone to the "Hardcore Championship Committee" to sanction a match between Al Snow & Head on this show. Yes, that is a match.
Also on the card, Triple H takes on The Road Dogg, Val Venis faces Billy Gunn, and in the main event, Meat with PMS (Terri Runnels & Jacqueline) battles rival Droz with Prince Albert!

"Whether you like it or not, ladies & gentlemen, the monster's reign has begun!"
When a top guy gets injured, you have to call an audible, and on this episode of WWE SmackDown from July 20, 2007, WWE had a big decision to make. The current World Heavyweight Champion, Edge, has gone down with an injury, and we are only 2 days away from the Great American Bash 2007 PPV. What do they do?! Well, the only thing they can do; have a 20 man over the top rope BATTLE ROYAL to decide the new World Heavyweight Champion.
Of course, all the stars are here in this match, like Jimmy Wang Yang, The Major Brothers, Deuce & Domino, and Eugene. There's also some undercard guys like Batista, MVP, Kane, & Finlay. But, the biggest & best of them all, and the man that walks away with the championship, is The Great Khali!
Even though this is a major part of the show, there are some other things to look forward to! Kane & Batista are in this battle royal, but that's not the only thing they do tonight, as they have a main event 1 on 1 match against each other to find out who will face The Great Khali at The Great American Bash for the World Championship. Victoria faces off against Torrie Wilson in a rivalry that's been brewing on SmackDown for a few weeks, and Matt Hardy takes on Kenny Dykstra.
We're also given a look at some new talent, or re-debuting talent, coming to smackdown, like Chuck Palumbo & his motorcycles, as well as Jesse & Festus!

"Let The Bodies Hit The Floor!"
Just over 20 years ago, on June 20th, 2006, WWE brought us the 2nd episode of ECW on Sci-Fi. The first episode of WWE ECW has taken place to much criticism, but also a fantastic rating of over 3 million viewers. With the debut of talent like Kurt Angle & Big Show, as well as characters like The ECW Zombie, no one really knew what to expect from this show. Seemingly, that 'no one' included the people in charge. By the way, you can check out our review of the 1st episode of WWE ECW right here!
But, this is the next week, and it's time to see what groundwork will be laid for the future of this 'brand'. The night before on WWE Monday Night RAW, ECW showed up to interrupt the show. Sabu made his presence known by not only attacking John Cena, but a chair thrown at Cena's head bust him wide open. This, of course, is to set up the match between John Cena & Sabu at this Sunday's "Vengeance" PPV.
Our main event for the evening also involves two superstars from RAW; Edge & Randy Orton. They're here to take on the team of Kurt Angle & Rob Van Dam. RVD had also shown up on RAW the night before to attack his opponent for Vengeance, Edge! Kurt Angle & Randy Orton are continuing their rivalry stemming from the last ECW One Night Stand, where Angle beat Randy Orton.
Also, Macho Libre is here to tell the ECW fans about how Macho Man did promos, which The Sandman takes umbrage to. Kelly is here to give us another Exposé, Sabu takes on The FBI's Tony Mamaluke w/ Trinity, Tommy Dreamer stands up to The Big Show, and John Cena is here to confront the ECW 'Extremist Rebels'.

"RING OF HONOR!! R-O-H!!"
On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we're headed back to July 11th, 2005 to re-visit this much talked about moment in wrestling history. The Edge/Matt Hardy/Lita drama is still unfolding at this time, with Matt Hardy having been released due to it all. But, on this episode of RAW, Matt Hardy is back for revenge! Matt shows up, attacks Edge during his match with Kane, and shouts "COME SEE ME AT RING OF HONOR! ROH!" into the microphone.
John Cena recently joined the brand, and is already at odds with current RAW General Manager, Eric Bischoff, who looks to make an example out of Cena via Chris Jericho. This isn't the only person Jericho has a problem with, though, as Jericho interrupts Carlito's "Carlito's Cabana" talk show. They both argue over who should interview Shawn Michaels about why he attacked Hulk Hogan, but ultimately, the original wrestling-talk-show-host "Rowdy" Roddy Piper shows up to steal the spotlight, and will have HBK on his show later tonight!
Speaking of Carlito, he will be defending his Intercontinental Championship against Shelton Benjamin, the man he cheated out of the championship at WWE Vengeance just a couple weeks ago. Kurt Angle hosts his Gold Medal Invitational, where "Famous Teacher Who Got Fired" Matt Striker accepts the challenge. Also, Chris Masters looks to get revenge on Tajiri for spitting green mist in his eyes, and we get our first elimination segment for the 2005 RAW Diva Search!

"We are wild...and young!"
A moment in time so incredible that it has both been remembered & forgotten, and then remembered again, over the course of the last 16 years. It's time for us to head back to the world of NXT, during an era where the WWE just really wanted to make some people look really dumb on television.
NXT Season 2 comes to an end here on this episode, and we get to find out who is the NEXT BREAKOUT WWE SUPERSTAR! They can only be so lucky. Not Lucky Cannon, though. Who in the end did the best keg races, and kissing, and punching a bag, and running around the ring, and cutting a promo?! Will it be Kaval, Michael McGillicutty, or Alex Riley?
During the night, we are also introduced to the participants of the next season of NXT, which is an all divas season.
There is so little wrestling on this show, like really none at all. We get one match, with all of the finalists in a triple-threat contest. Their job is to win the match but also impress the WWE Pros (Cody Rhodes, Zack Ryder, MVP, Kofi Kingston, Michelle McCool & Layla, Mark Henry, John Morrison, & The Miz) that are watching (kinda) on the stage. Of course, all of the losers of this season are at ringside, including Husky Harris (Bray Wyatt), Percy Watson, Eli Cottonwood, Titus O'Neil, and Lucky Cannon (?).
There are some big time moments on this, including Michael McGillicutty's greatest speech of all time, and the complete disaster of a show-ending angle.
All of that, and SO much more, on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast.

"I HATE DUCKS!"
A moment in wrestling that everyone has seen, but very few understand the context, which brings us to watching this episode...where we get even less context. Of course, this episode has the infamous scene where Scott Steiner attacks...a duck!
It's WCW Thunder from September 27th, 2000, and we are in quite an "interesting" time in WCW. Vince Russo has just won the WCW World Championship, and everyone has absolutely lost their minds. Literally everyone. From the talent, to the staff, to the announce team, especially on this episode. Most of the top guys do not want to work Thunder, so they just don't! Leaving us with shows like this.
Lex Luger made his return to WCW this past Nitro, in an attempt to help Vince Russo win the World Title. He's back here on Thunder, to interrupt Jeff Jarrett, and to apologize for what he did. Jeff Jarrett isn't having any of it, until top guy General Hugh G. Rection comes out to say that he stands with Lex Luger. Team Canada's own Lance Storm attacks General Rection, which sets up our unsanctioned main event!
"Above Average" Mike Sanders is here to run the show, as Vince Russo is not here. Well, he is in this town, as he does an interview with Mike Tenay later, but he just isn't at this show, like most top guys aren't. Mike Sanders & the Natural Born Thrillers look to advance in the Hardcore Title Tournament that Mike Sanders has just set up, and if they don't, they are SOL...and you know what that means.
We also get some matches! Rey Mysterio Jr & Juventud Guerrera face off in the 2nd match of their Best of 5 Series, Team Canada's Jim Duggan & Elix Skipper get a tag team title match against Sean O'Haire & Mark Jindrak. The two Hardcore Title tournament matches we get are Johnny The Bull taking on Sergeant AWOL, and Reno taking on Crowbar!
We can't forget to mention the big talk show segment of the night, the LAVA LAMP LOUNGE hosted by Mike Awesome!
All of that, and SO much more, on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

"Look at that! 200 feet!"
It's time to talk about the INVASION era once again! Stone Cold Steve Austin is the WWF Champion, and last week on SmackDown, he made possibly the biggest mistake of his career; he threw Kurt Angle's Olympic Gold Medals over a bridge, into the river. Stone Cold seems to be involved in a lot of these bridge angles, now that we think about it. But, now it's RAW is WAR, and Kurt Angle is out for revenge. So much so, that Kurt Angle KIDNAPS Stone Cold, and takes him to a bridge in an attempt to throw him off of it. Live. On television.
While everyone else worries about that, we also have some wrestling going on! As mentioned, The Invasion is still in 'full' swing, and The Rock is the current WCW World Heavyweight Champion. On this episode of RAW in Toronto, Canada, Christian gets a chance to win the big gold! He's so confident, that he even gives Edge back the King of the Ring trophy that he's been parading around with. Former WCW Champion Booker T & the owner of WCW, Shane McMahon, take a big interest in this match, as well.
Also on this episode of RAW is WAR, 1/2 of the current WWF & WCW Tag Team Champions, The Undertaker, takes on The Alliance's Test. The Dudley Boyz take on Big Show & Tajiri to find out the #1 contenders for the tag titles. Matt Hardy & Lita look for revenge on The Hurricane & Ivory an in intergender tag match, while Perry Saturn looks to find out who kidnapped Moppy! Most importantly, Shawn Stasiak is here, managed by Stacy Keibler, to take on Spike Dudley, who is managed by Molly Holly.

"This Will NEVER Be Over!"
We're coming up on Memorial Day, so what better way to celebrate America than by watching a Memorial Day episode of WWE Monday Night RAW?! Hooray! Of course, we are only a few weeks removed from the last episode of RAW from 2006 we watched, which means we are right in the middle of Kane's "May 19th" situation. Except this time, we finally get to find out who is behind all of the mystery & shenanigans that have been haunting Kane for weeks now. It's...himself! Masked Kane interrupts Kane's match with Shelton Benjamin, which sends Kane into a shock like he's never experienced before...and hopefully never did again!
We also can't forget the big main event; Triple H takes on the 20 year old (did you know he's 20?) Kenny of the Spirit Squad! But, it's not just a regular match, it's the first ever SPIRIT JACK match, where all of the other members of the Spirit Squad (Nicky! Mikey! Johnny! Mitch!) will surround the ring, lumberjack style. Vince McMahon put this match together, after Triple H "accidentally" hit Shane McMahon with a sledgehammer a couple weeks ago, and also stopped the Spirit Squad from attacking Shawn Michaels last week.
ECW is about to make it's big return to television, and ECW One Night Stand 2006 is right around the corner. Paul Heyman & Mick Foley have a face-to-face confrontation in the ring, which leads to the breaking news that RVD isn't the only person joining the ECW brand, but so is Kurt Angle!
Also on this show, "The World's Largest Love Machine" Viscera seeks revenge on Umaga, Beth Phoenix & Torrie Wilson team up to face Victoria & Candice Michelle, Big Show faces Edge for the #1 Contendership of the WWE Championship, and WWE Champion John Cena faces the newest RAW acquisition, Johnny Nitro!

"I'm not good enough to call BACKLASH?!"
The May 1st, 2006 episode of WWE Monday Night RAW brings us the fallout from the PPV that took place the night before, Backlash! Of course, to capitalize on the momentum of this PPV, Vince McMahon opens the show & lets everyone know that he doesn't really feel like working tonight, and he is going to let all of the members of the Spirit Squad run the show. Yes, all of them. Kenny. Johnny. Mitch. Nicky. Mikey. All of them.
Of course, that comes with a lot of "interesting" matches, including John Cena defending his WWE Championship against the 20 year old Kenny. Three of the members of the Spirit Squad also very fairly put themselves in a 6-man tag against "The Odd Squad" of Eugene, Snitsky, & Goldust. Of course, that's not all the Spirit Squad does on this episode, as they decide to set their sights on the lead commentator of RAW at the time, Joey Styles.
The Spirit Squad, during the live broadcast, tell Joey Styles to go backstage to have a meeting with them, where they dress him down for being bad at his job, and not having enough "spirit". This, combined with Jerry Lawler poking his buttons, sets Joey Styles off, which leads to one of the most infamous 'worked-shoot' promos in the history of WWE, leading to some very memorable lines.
We also have Chris Masters' Masterlock Challenge, a Divas Cheerleader Tag Team Match involving Mickie James, Victoria, Maria, and Torrie Wilson, and the biggest match of the night; Rob Conway takes on KANE, who is being haunted by the mysterious 'May 19th' date.

"Far as I know, that's Razor Ramon!"
On this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF Monday Night RAW from September 30th, 1996. Everyone has been glued to their screens, waiting for the returns of Razor Ramon & Diesel to the WWF. Everyone thought they were long gone, taking over WCW as Scott Hall & Kevin Nash, but Good Ol' Jim Ross has come up with an unbelievable plan which involves bringing the very real Razor Ramon & Diesel back home. We've seen glimpses of them, and last week on RAW, JR re-introduced The Bad Guy to the WWF! It is 100% without a doubt a man named Razor Ramon.
We're blessed with the in-ring return of Razor Ramon here on RAW, as well as promised an appearance by Big Daddy Cool, Diesel! Gorilla Monsoon, Jerry Lawler, Kevin Kelly, and really the entire company all have an issue with this. Gorilla Monsoon goes as far as to come out during Razor Ramon's match to tell JR that the WWF had nothing to do with this, and that this is very obviously NOT Razor Ramon or Diesel!
Undertaker & Mankind are getting themselves prepared for the first ever "Buried Alive" match at In Your House, and what better way to prepare themselves than to hang around in a graveyard and mess with some dirt?
Also on this episode, Stone Cold Steve Austin goes one-on-one with Jake Roberts, The Godwinns take on The Grimms, and we can't forget our huge main event! Shawn Michaels teams up with his mentor, Jose Lothario, to take on the team of Vader & Jim Cornette!

"I'd like to formally introduce myself.."
It's a new year for the WWE. In fact, it's New Year's Day! It's January 1st, 2007, and the big match going into this one is the first time encounter between John Cena, and "A-List Celebrity" Kevin Federline. Federline cost Cena a match at the Cyber Sunday PPV a couple months back, and then challenged him to this match here on the first RAW of the year. Yes, Kevin Federline made the challenge to the current WWE Champion, and he accepted.
Kevin Federline isn't the only person John Cena has to worry about, though. We're less than a week away from WWE New Year's Revolution, where Cena will be defending his WWE Championship against Umaga. Not only will we see these two also go at it on this show, but Jonathan Coachman, the man in charge of RAW, puts himself, Umaga, Armando Estrada, & Johnny Nitro in a 4-on-1 handicap match against Cena as well!
Speaking of New Year's Revolution, Rated RKO & D-Generation X are set to go at it after weeks of Edge & Randy Orton attacking Shawn Michaels & Triple H, as well as one of their close friends & mentors, Ric Flair. DX, of course, address this in the only way they know how.
Ric Flair will also be wrestling on this show, as he teams with Carlito to take on Kenny Dykstra, who just beat Ric Flair last week, and Chris Masters, who will face Carlito at the PPV. Also on this show, Jeff Hardy faces Rob Conway in a match where Conway puts his career on the line, Melina takes on Maria, and Cryme Tyme (Shad & JTG) team with The Highlanders (Robbie & Rory McAllister) to face Lance Cade, Trevor Murdoch, & The World's Greatest Tag Team (Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas).
It doesn't get more 2007 than this.

"GET RANDY SAVAGE OUTTA' THERE!"
One of the most insane moments to take place in pro-wrestling history not only happened on television, but it was long before the WWF had an 'attitude'!
On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling from November 23, 1991, where Jake "The Snake" Roberts unleashes his deadliest attack on "Macho Man" Randy Savage. With Macho Man trapped in the ropes, Jake Roberts brought a King Cobra over to him just so it could take a big bite out of Macho Man's arm! Censored on some stations, uncensored on others, this was one of the craziest things to happen on WWF TV.
We're also on the road to WWF Survivor Series 1991, which took place on the Wednesday following this episode of Superstars of Wrestling. The biggest match on the card is the "Gravest Challenge", which puts current WWF Champion Hulk Hogan against The Undertaker. We hear from both of them, especially The Undertaker, throughout the night.
Speaking of Survivor Series, you can't have a Survivor Series without the traditional Survivor Series matches! Survivor Series! We hear from various teams on this show, like the team of the Legion of Doom & Big Bossman, as well as the team of Ric Flair, The Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase, The Mountie, and The Warlord!
We do get some wrestling on this show, as well! Many of the best enhancement talent in the world step up to the plate here, to take on the likes of "El Matador" Tito Santana, Skinner and Texas Tornado. Bret Hart also defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Big Bully Busick!
