New podcast on the Patreon - Big Gay Brunch 10, Wrestlemania Night 1 & Clusterf*ck Forever. 14 hours of wrestling and it beat us in the end. PLUS thanks to ace pals Duncan and John, we've got our hands on some barbed wire from the Sabu match, and our hands are now bleeding. OWW Patreon.com/wrestleme
New podcast up on the Patreon - we went to Joey Janela's Spring Break 9, DDT, Tokyo Joshi Pro AND Wrestlecon and it might have been the best single wrestleday of our lives. PLUS there's a new video where we go on a pilgrimage to the original site of the WCW Nitro Grill (RIP) Patreon.com/wrestleme

It's WCW ROAD WILD 1998 - we're back in Sturges for another shonky show with one of the single worst matches of all time. Amazingly it's not Meng vs Barbarian (which has a very perplexing 30 second section where Barbs moves Meng's legs around but doesn't know why). patreon.com/wrestleme
New video up on the YouTube account! Eye eating, bear wrestling, admiring racists and giving the world Junkyard Dog - it's a gallop through the Bill Watts story as he takes over WCW in 1992! youtu.be/VAv6i_v1gOg?...

Two new shows up on the Patreon (one's us larking around, didn't count). It's SUMMERSLAM 1998, so we're talking about Japanese dubs of The Snowman and Pete's local wrestling show, where the roof is too low for top rope moves. Image from excellent @pablobonzo.bsky.social Patreon.com/wrestleme
Thanks to everyone who voted for us to win the UKFF'S Best Digital Content 2024 award! YESSS! Genuinely made-up, and even more so considering the WWE Vault was the one to beat this year. THANKYOU LOVEYOU xxx (excellent accompanying image stolen from the excellent TibBo)
@wrestleme.bsky.social Oh my god- this is really happening people! More insights into the minutiae of owning a chain of petrol stations and passive-aggressive digs at the Count’s ex wives! Count me in!
Little delay on the show today thanks to a surprise attack from our old rival Remote Audio Issues, we're sorting it as we speak, maybe this humility and pluck will ensure we don't lose the UKFF Best Digital Media award to the Vault
I cannot tell you how delightful it would be to beat the WWE's huge corporate machine in the UKFF awards (yes, the Vault's good, but it's mainly there to distract us all from losing the Network), so if you have a vote and like us enough, please send it our way THANK YOUUU ukff.com/topic/145046...
In what may be a true David vs Goliath moment, @wrestleme.bsky.social and the WWE Vault are currently equal on votes in the UKFF awards for Digital Content of the Year.
It's the final part of ECW Heatwave 1998 up on the Patreon now! That means Pete can't stop playing Hayabusa's theme music, we celebrate the sexy chat of Joel Gertner and wonder what happened to the Peruvian Pipe Bands that were in every UK shopping centre until they all suddenly disappeared in 2002
Take our hand as we travel back to HEATWAVE 1998 for some vintage ECW. And spoiler alert: it's flipping great (unlike the UK DVD artwork, which isn't). Part 1 up now on the Patreon! Patreon.com/wrestleme for the new ep, the old eps, new videos, fanzines and more. It's all in your soaraway Wrestle Me

Everyone's being very upset about it online but I was there live, really enjoyed the Cara Noir-Effy match with extra egg, and immediately texted Pete about how much I'd liked it, so the debate is over. As Effy said afterwards, with egg dripping down his face, wrestling is infinite
