    This week on BoredWrestlingFan Radio, Joe talks about his Monday Night RAW experience from the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, NY this past Monday night.  We get into a discussion on what Cena’s team should have on the line against The Authority’s power at Survivor Series.  We talk about man on woman violence in professional wrestling as the discussion turns to Wednesday night’s Lucha Underground.  And we can’t seem to remember anything that happened on SmackDown.

    In the news, TNA seems to be vanishing from Spike TV’s airwaves in the near future.  Myzteziz (The former Sin Cara) seconds Alberto Del Rio’s claim that WWE is racist.  Hulk Hogan talks about John Cena, and laments having a legdrop for a finisher.  Renee Young offends people with her Halloween costume.  Injury updates on Santino Marella, Bo Dallas, and Zack Ryder.  All this and much, much more on this week’s episode of BoredWrestlingFan Radio!

  3. PatMan Picks Stampede Classics. Halloween special. Brian Pillman vs. Jason The Terrible !

    Welcome back to another trip down Stampede Wrestling’ memory lane. This week I have a match specially picked out for Halloween viewing! First up its a young “Flying Brian Pillman”, who at this point in his career had only recently started training in the famous “dungeon” of the Hart family. Pillman would, of course, go on to the ECW and he would also later become tag champions with Steve Austin. Perhaps his biggest claim to fame was his WWF run as part of the Hart Foundation. Brian Pillman gained international success everywhere he went. Unfortunately, like so many other Stampede trained wrestlers, he was taken from this earth well before his time. His opponent was Jason The Terrible, a “supernatural” wrestling heel who’s character was based on the frightening Friday the 13th movie monster of the same name. Although intended to be an unstoppable heel, Jason would  ironically become a very popular  face in the Stampede promotion. No matter how hard promoters wanted this character to be an “evil heel” that the fans would fear and boo when he was in the ring,  Jason quickly became a fan favorite. In fact, the crowd soon started to love his horror character and bring in hockey masks of their own to show Jason! Fans started to cheer for the monster more than they did the faces that he wrestled against. In other words, Jason The Terrible would become one of the first  true “anti-heros” in the business and as Bruce Hart put it “was well on his way to wrestling stardom”. Jason even became tag partners with one of the terratories biggest faces of all time, Owen Hart. Unfortunately,  the original Jason The Terrible was involved in a car accident which injured the man behind the mask and put an end to his career. After the original Jason was forced to stop competing in Stampede, there have been other men who wrestled behind the Jason Mask in other territories, but it is THIS Jason that I will always be  fond of. Have a fun Halloween wrestling fans, and dont forget to check out www.wonderpodonline.com for more Patman picks and also wonderpod video game podcast episode 86 !

    Tonight we are slated to have a funeral for the Deadman. Being Halloween week, or whatever they call it in today’s immensely Hallmark influenced world. I love the holiday, don’t get me wrong. It just seems to get more commercialized every year, and I just sound more like an old man… ha ha… Screw it, time to suffer through Smackdown… Maybe there will be some wrestling too?
