This week’s show revolves around the infamous cage match in Florida between Bruiser Brody and Lex Luger in 1987 that resulted in Luger hightailing it to the locker room after Brody refused to work with him. This week we’ll watch that match “together” and get a live breakdown of the match. We’ll see if we can find the missing piece that unlocks the mystery of “what the hell just happened?” The significance in this match is that it opens the door for Lex Luger to come to Jim Crockett Promotions and eventually join the Horsemen. ---Get a PERSONAL PHONE CALL FROM JJ!

This week's show continues our look at the Minnesota Wrecking Crew. We cover Ole & Arn teaming up and make our way to the early days of what would morph into The Four Horsemen. Where did Arn start his career, and is he really an Anderson? How was it dealing with Ole? What about when Tully Blanchard entered the picture? We try to cover as much ground as possible all the while allowing JJ to spin tales of the "glory years" of pro wrestling. ---Get a phone call from JJ (or Rich, if you want)!
