Podcast Episode 87: Big Show Down, Cody Rhodes Out

Posted on by Joshua Schlag

Yes, the corporate leadership stood tall once again over a beaten and battered Daniel Bryan. Yes, we screamed obscenities at the TV as Big Show struggled to keep his job and Cody Rhodes drew the short end of the stick. We don’t know if Triple H truly makes the decisions that are “best for business” but we are captivated. One thing is for sure: the worse things get for our goat faced hero and the rest of the WWE locker room, the sweeter it will be when revenge is exacted!

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!
