Kris and David are guestless as we talk about the week that was June 18-24, 2002. Topics of discussion include:

  • Vince Russo getting rehired by WWE for a few days and why this marriage dissolved as quickly as it did.
  • King of the Ring featuring Brock Lesnar being crowned and Hulk Hogan doing a rare clean submission job for Kurt Angle.
  • Vince McMahon breaks out RUTHLESS AGGRESSION for the first time on Raw and a new canonical WWE “era” is born.
  • Chris Jericho loses his shit at the readers of PWTorch.com not giving his match with Rob Van Dam at the PPV enough love.
  • Don Frye and Yoshihiro Takayama go to war in one of the most memorable fights in Pride FC history.
  • Keiji Muto and other AJPW stars work a wacky show in Atlantic City.
  • Ring of Honor begins their ROH Title tournament in Philadelphia, featuring a highly memorable Low-Ki vs. Amazing Red match.
  • Tracy Smothers returns to IWA Mid-South a week after starting a "riot."
  • The birth of NWA Total Non-Stop Action with their very first show featuring all sorts of memorable moments, as we do a full rundown of the show both on TV and behind the scenes.

This was a STACKED show that you don't want to miss!!!
