This was a fun listen! I enjoyed this and the Uncharted Territory episode about the first year of the fed. I have never really commented on the fed in the board, but I have read it for years, and it's always a fun read. I love the old school feel of it. I was curious, is the spreadsheet you mentioned that you use still out there somewhere to be found ? I used to have a copy of it that I think I got off of one the old Yahoo groups, but can't find it anymore. I found a link in a thread on here to it, but it the file wasn't there.

Thank you for the compliments on my fed, Hot Fuzz! I know I did post it on our old LOW Bootlegs Yahoo! Group. I will see if I can get another example copy up in Google Drive to share. Thanks for asking! |

I just finished listening to this podcast today. Whether it is on Uncharted Territory or on Roll Up, it is always great to hear Cory (who I am still amazed drove through that major rainstorm- at least by my Las Vegas standards it was major- in the Minneapolis area in July 2019 to meet me for dinner that night) discuss his fed and other topics!
Did I hear correctly (I was driving so perhaps I did not) that we have 100 LOW color cards that do not also have black and white cards? If so, that is amazing but regardless of the number I am extremely thankful for all of the new LOW names that have signed since the transition to color.
I heard Cory mention Bockwinkel's success in his fed. For me, Bockwinkel is tied with Harley Race with 6 Majors each (in my fed a Major is a VWF Championship, World Championship, EAWA Championship, or- the now defunct- MLW Championship) but they trail Buddy Rogers who has 8 Majors.
I agree with you guys that most LOW wrestlers do not need a new card for when they switch from heel to face or vice versa.
I enjoyed listening to the details of the first shows and first PPVs you guys got to attend (I have still never been to MSG.) My first show was a WWF house show in February 1986 at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, Washington and some of the names on it were the Macho Man, Terry Funk, and JYD. I looked it up and these were the results:
Sivi Afi defeated Rene Goulet
Hercules Hernandez defeated SD Jones
Adrian Adonis defeated George Wells
Cousin Luke defeated Mr. X
Corporal Kirchner and Danny Spivey defeated Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff
Junkyard Dog defeated Terry Funk
Intercontinental Champion "Macho Man" Randy Savage defeated George Steele by countout
I don't know anything about this upcoming LOW 4-pack, but was there a hint (it sounded like a hint) dropped about it at the end of this episode?

That's right, Zeke! I've driven in many rainstorms and snowstorms and I think that one was one of the craziest! But it was worth it when we got to enjoy Union 32 Craft House. Did I hear correctly (I was driving so perhaps I did not) that we have 100 LOW color cards that do not also have black and white cards? If so, that is amazing but regardless of the number I am extremely thankful for all of the new LOW names that have signed since the transition to color. I used that number based on what Chad Olson told us on Episode 77 of Uncharted Territory that Derek ( derekvb) had shared with him prior to our recording. It's amazing how many legends have been added since the end of the B&W sets and start of the color sets! |

Another fun episode & great companion piece to Uncharted's USWA show. Always interested to hear other promoters booking styles & ideas.

Great episode. It really sucks what happened to Shinjiro Otani and its a big reason why I despise old wrestlers returning for one more run. I couldn’t watch Austin at WrestleMania. I don’t like that Sting still wrestles. I’m know it’s because of what happened to Misawa. If it was Emmitt Smith or Michael Jordan I wouldn’t want them going into one more game, looking like a shell of themselves, for the hopes of one more pop at the risk of paralysis or even death. But because wrestling is predetermined they do. Thinking they can minimize the risk because of the control you have during a match.
Glad his surgery was a success but he’s not out of the woods yet. IMO wrestling has to do a better job of preserving our legends so they feel they can contribute without it being in ring.

Getting caught up on my Roll Up's! Fun episode so far (not done yet), and Mike M....I had nothing to do with Tendron losing to Ursa Major in Cory's fed!  |
