Official listing

 

[Cleavy]

• Mick Foley: Hell in a Cell: “From the first terrifying fall off the cage to the impact he still feels today, Mick Foley relives a wrestling match, “Hell in a Cell ’98,” moment by moment.”
• Blood, Fire and the Original Sheik: “The Sheik, whose violent career spanned fifty years, is revealed by his family and the few who survived his hardcore bloodbaths.”
• Tony Atlas: Too Much, Too Soon: “With the physique of an Adonis and endless charisma, Tony Atlas makes his mark as one of wrestling’s first Black stars but racism, addiction and ego keeps Mr. USA from the top.”
• Becoming Muhammad Hassan: “Just three years post-9/11, Marc Copani sees the highs and lows of wrestling when he’s given the chance to portray Muhammad Hassan, a villainous Arab-American character for the WWE.”
• ‘Hot Stuff’ Eddie Gilbert: “Skilled as a performer in the ring and as a booker, who created storylines behind the scenes; ‘Hot Stuff’ Eddie Gilbert was a ticking timebomb of talent and self-destruction.”
• Big Van Vader: “With an iconic look and skills few of his size could match, Big Van Vader stood out as a wrestling monster but controlling his anger became a bigger battle in and out of the ring.”
• The Scream Queen: Daffney: “With her piercing scream, Shannon Spruill becomes a cult star as Daffney in the squared circle; outside the ring, Daffney fights a much more punishing battle with bipolar disorder.”
• The Original ‘Superstar’: Billy Graham: “Often imitated, never duplicated, Billy Graham breaks the mold for what a wrestler could be but steroid abuse and battles with the McMahons keeps Graham from the spotlight.”
• Ludvig Borga: Hellraiser From Helsinki: “A Finnish wrestling bad guy turned real-life racist politician, Tony Halme’s time in the WWF as Ludvig Borga is only the start of his chaotic and destructive life.”
• Truth, Lies and Billy Jack Haynes: “An 80s wrestling star, Billy Jack Haynes’ life of violence and mystery leads to his current situation; behind bars and charged with the second degree murder of his wife.”

DSOTR Unheard podcast is back. Foley ep is up

 

[Planet14]

That podcast was so frustrating. Why do those guys have to jump in and explain things mid-clip? I want hear Foley, not those geeks.

 

[Cleavy]

interesting to have Gerald Briscoe, Al Snow and the doctor Francois Petit on the Foley ep. It's a shame that Terry Funk passed away. He would have added something more to this episode.

===============
Ludvig Borga episode next week apparently

 

[Cleavy]

 

[The Sultan]

first ep a good one though it was more of a mick foley ep than strictly HIAC. .. which is good cause love me some mick foley.

still don't know how he pulled Collette, she was smoking hot back in the day and he was with her way before he became famous. Foley is GOD

 

[Ivelisse]

Will Jericho narrate his NDA-Kylie Rae episode?

That shake of the head at the end will be meme'd for years.

 

[RossFC]

Had no idea that Borga was a politician in Finland. Crazy line when he was voted in, he wanted people’s arms cut off for sexual assault and he said “I’ve never seen a woman assaulted by a guy with no arms.”

 

[Cleavy]

Kinda sad of the inevitable downfall once he couldn’t be “the Viking”, but also not sad at all given that he was a deplorable human.

they need to do a Cornette episode

 

[Ivelisse]

I've read Foley's first two autobiographies and it sounded like his Royal Rumble 1999 match with The Rock was a huge deal in his real family life. Hell in a Cell comparatively is just what helped him become famous.

That podcast was so frustrating. Why do those guys have to jump in and explain things mid-clip? I want hear Foley, not those geeks.

I rarely do podcasts on any subject. What could be a good video becomes a hour-long laughing conversation. A video essay is better than people ad-libbing and talking over each other.

Vader time next week

 

[RossFC]

Just seen the Vader ep. One of the great agile big men in Japan and WCW.

Didn't know about him ending a jobbers career in WCW, way too stiff and reckless with that powerbomb.

Very sad when Vader passed but almost expected with his weight problems. WWE tried to help him and Yokozuna lose weight and they got caught eating buckets of KFC and gaining weight.
