Finished listening this morning. Thanks for letting me drop in, it was an honor. Loved hearing what went on after I had to bow out. Bummed I missed the discussion on favorite matches. I would have thrown in Hogan/Rock at Wrestlemania X8. Not a technical marvel but I loved the energy in that match and how, seemingly, Rock and Hogan changed things on the fly.
Again, thanks for having me and thanks for the great show.

throwingtoasters, that is a great match! I agree that sometimes it's the atmosphere, not just the wrestling action, that makes the match. I'd say the same thing about the Hogan vs. Andre and Hogan vs. Warrior matches at WMIII and WMVI. Thanks again for joining us!

Thank you for the invitation to be on the podcast this past week for Cory's birthday!
It was indeed an honor. In addition to Chad and Tim, Cory is one of my oldest friends in this great community. I am still surprised Cory drove through that thunderous rainstorm, at least it was a thunderous rainstorm by Las Vegan standards but perhaps not so bad by Minnesota standards, 2 Summers ago to meet me for dinner when I was in the Minneapolis area. I was glad to be there this past Tuesday night.
It was great to see everybody who participated on the podcast once again! I know it is mostly a LOW podcast, but let me know if you want me on in the future to possibly discuss the Indy game.
I am looking forward to seeing Chad, Cory, Tim, Stu, Grant, James Jeffries, and whoever else can make the trip in Waterloo this July!

Again, thanks for having me and thanks for the great show. Thanks for coming to my party, Grant! As Chad said, atmosphere can really make a match. As a kid, I thought Hogan-Warrior was the best match ever. Even today, I can watch and enjoy it, knowing the importance of the match, the size of the crowd, etc. Thank you for the invitation to be on the podcast this past week for Cory's birthday!

I was worried I was going to have to call and cancel. I just went back to Union 32 Brewhouse about two weeks ago for the first time since you and I went. They had a great local stout on tap. We definitely will have you on as a guest to talk to the indie sets. Thanks again for coming to the party!

Probably one of the Top 10 matches I've seen in person. Crowd definitely made the match.

I'd say the same thing about the Hogan vs. Andre and Hogan vs. Warrior matches at WMIII and WMVI. Thanks again for joining us! 100% agree on all 3 of those matches. I would include the Warrior vs Savage Retirement match as well. The ending with the multiple shoulder tackles, dragging Savage back into the ring and standing on him for the 3 count is my all time favorite WWF match ending. The post match drama w Elizabeth put it all over the top.
