Podcast Episode 62: Rest in Peace, Paul Bearer

Posted on by Joshua Schlag

Though The Rock and John Cena were both missing in action, the Road to WrestleMania moves on. This week, we saw a fitting tribute to Paul Bearer, who passed away just a week ago. Stemming from that tribute, we saw a phenomenal build for CM Punk / Undertaker – excitement levels for that match are at an all time high. In addition, we saw Tensai and Fandango in the same segment, and the return of the Bella Twins. Dear Adam, You’re Welcome. Love, Vince McMahon.

A Fitting Tribute. RIP, indeed.

For most of the last 30+ years of my life, I've been watching WWE. As a kid, Monday Night Raw hooked me from the start. From Bret Hart and Razor Ramon, to Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock, to CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.. I've witnessed the ups and downs and I'm proud to have enjoyed pro wrestling through the years.

Though I now watch in a much different fashion than I did when I was a kid (finding out Vince McMahon was the owner and Jack Tunney no more than a figurehead was like finding out Santa Claus did not exist), I feel like I have a much greater appreciation for the hard work pro wrestlers do and the things they sacrifice to entertain us.

It's still real to me, dammit!
