Podcast Episode 71: Extreme Rules Preview

Plenty of folks have been vocal in recent weeks, complaining about WWE. Oh wait, that’s been happening since we’ve had this outlet called the World Wide Web – Twitter, especially, in recent years. Regardless, there are a lot of great things that might happen this Sunday: The Shield may win two separate championships in a single night (Tag Team Championship and the United States Championship), and uh… Well – most of the other matches have potential to be quite entertaining at the very least. Except maybe Cena / Ryback. And depending who you ask – Lesnar / Triple H. Ah, so it’s pretty much business as usual these days. Tune in to hear us discuss it all in far too much depth than a bunch of grown men should.

Hosted by: Darrell ‘The Beast from the Middle East’ Johnson (@zazzumplop)

Featuring: ‘A-Bomb’ Adam Hess (@ahess49), Sprung (@jasprung), Hashtag Billi (@DirteeJesus), and Joshua Schlag (@thesteelcage / @schlizzag)

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!
