Russo and Bischoff are in charge of the “NEW WCW.” It’s WCW Nitro May 22, 2000 and Vince Russo promises us the funeral of Ric Flair. Flair was beat up by the New Blood on WCW Thunder last week and passed out as he was being carried out! The New Blood decides to make a mockery out of The Nature Boy by holding a funeral for him. Also, as it’s a new WCW all the matches are now under relaxed rules! The Cat fights Booker T in a Weapons Matc...

The Spirit Squad were a top act on RAW in 2006, with a bright future ahead of all of the members. So bright, that they were going against the other 5 top acts on RAW at the time. Yes, this is a match that took place on the actual episode of RAW. Not a dark match, not HEAT, but TV time on the television show.

If you think you don't know this match, there is a good chance you actually do!
On this edition of the DEADLOCK Retro Sync, we take a look back at this episode of WCW Nitro from 2000, where Jeff Jarrett & Booker T have a match for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. But, it's not just any normal match, it's a SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS MATCH. There are 4 boxes hanging on poles on the ring posts. Three of the boxes have weapons, while th...

Two of the best teams to never make it to the top of the WWF are here, right after the death of ECW, to show what tag team wrestling is really all about! Recently, the WWE Vault released this match that has been talked about in shoot interviews for years. The FBI of Little Guido & Tony Mamaluke take on Danny Doring & Roadkill in a dark match before Monday Night Raw in 2001. We talk about the story of this match and what comes after it ...

On this edition of SGH, we visit a show that happens to have one of the biggest moments in the history of the sport, the formation of the New World Organization! Or the New World Order. Whatever you want to call it, we have it here for you this month. There's also a bunch of other ridiculous matches on this show that seemingly have been lost to time when it comes to looking back on this show with one of the crazie...

Some runs in pro wrestling are just better watched all in one go, and that's what we are doing here on this edition of Watch This. Back in 1999, the Public Enemy were making a name for themselves, so much so that they garnered interest from the WWF and got themselves a deal. They then went on a historic run, which we're all going to watch together!

YOU WANNA WAR?! The June 10th, 1996 episode of WCW Nitro is historic because it was the debut of the outsider Kevin Nash. At the time everyone thought he was invading from WWF. Scott Hall promised his “big” surprise buddy was going to show up, but he didn't say when. This is where the big boys play. Look at the adjective “play.” Also, Scott Steiner battles Booker T, Sting takes on Meng, The Nasty Boys fight the Public Enemy, and the WC...

Recently, we watched NO HOLDS BARRED: THE MOVIE for SGH (in the $10 and above tier, check it out, it's ridiculous). Afterwards, we found out that they did more than just promote this movie with commercials, they promoted it with an actual match between the protagonist and antagonist of the movie; Hulk Hogan & ZEUS! Much to our joy, Brutus Beefcake is here too.

The top contenders for the WWF Championship are all in this match, with all of your favorites. Including, Fired Earl Hebner, The Rock, The Dawg, The Game, and The Kid (everyone hates him). It's a handicap match for the WWF Championship, which we assume means that anyone on Team DX can win the title if they pin The Rock. Alternatively, it should also mean if Earl Hebner wins for his team, he is the new WWF Champion. An exciting situation here i...

We don't really know what the purpose of this match was, or where it goes (likely no where), but on this edition of Watch This, we're taking it back to 1999 with this mfer. We got some hardcore wrestling business here on WCW Nitro, with La Parka & Silver King taking on Ciclope & Damien. Falls do count anywhere in this one, though I'm not sure the ref knows this.
The very last episode of ECW on TNN took place on October 6th, 2000. WWF Monday Night RAW is on TNN now, so that leaves ECW without a national television deal. In what is somewhat a fitting ending., Joel Gertner wrestles “The Network’s” Cyrus in the main event. But, before we get to that we have other matches from ECW Anarchy Rulz. Kid Kash and EZ Money have a match where Kid Kash had to win in order to have Joel Gertner face off w...

We're not sure if this, or him setting JR on fire, or the stuff that he did with Katie Vick (allegedly) is worse, but nonetheless, it's time for a new DEADLOCK RETRO SYNC! On this episode, we take a look back at the boys' review of this episode of RAW from 2003, where Kane has had enough of Shane McMahon, and he hates him so much that he is going to attach a car battery to his nut sack.

It was bound to happen, and the time for it is now. On this edition of SGH, we take a look at Hulk Hogan's NO HOLDS BARRED movie. None of us have watched this before, so we're all going into this one blind. All we know is that Hulk Hogan is in it, and it's old as shit. What more can you ask for?
Who knew that WWE would just give away big matches like this in 2008? We talk a lot about how we hated the year 2008, and all of the things that went along with it, but maybe we got this one wrong. Maybe they were onto something here. Let's see how this one plays out, as the two Brothers of Destruction do battle in the blue ring on free TV.
Because how do you see that this match happened and not be morbidly curious about what actually takes place here?
On this edition of WATCH THIS, we go back to the year 2000, where Naked Mideon was running amuck. He literally was running around, butt ass naked. Little did we know, he actually was doing more than just streaking in during matches, he actually HAD MATCHES, and this is one of them. William Regal defends the big Europe title ...

We are going where no one has dared to go before. We have watched the first match between these two legends of the ring, and for some reason, they did it again. Yes, The Undertaker and Giant Gonzales do battle once again here at Summerslam 1993 in a REST IN PEACE match. No one knows what that is, including the guys in the ring. But what we do know, is that no one would dare to watch this match...until now
