“I do think that faster-paced, the audience wants that. You don’t need long scenes of them ramping up.”

Y’all remeber the Surf Dracula meme?

Yeah. That.

I am going to walk into the sea.

Hulk Hogan was a huge part of my life and he’s one of the people whom I wish I knew FAR less about.

I hugged him in 1993 at the NATPE show where he was promoting his stupid Thunder boat show. He was kind and very slick to the touch.

I know what he stood for and I am still so very sad.

Follow the money and follow the audience and its needs in the streaming age. That was one point that television industry leaders agreed on in Central and Eastern Europe at this week’s NATPE Budapest, even if their specific strategies may differ.

New @btsheetspod.bsky.social covering 2002! Vince McMahon injects "A LETHAL DOSE OF POISON" into the WWF by signing the nWo, Satoshi Kojima bids NJPW adieu as he heads to AJPW, Low-Ki vs. Sabu is an utter mess, XWF stories coming out of the NATPE convention, and more. redcircle.com/shows/betwee...
Kris and David discuss the week that was January 22-28, 2002. Topics of discussion include: Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, and Kevin Nash officially signing with the WWF, which leads to Vince McMahon going insane on SmackDown, talking about injecting his company with “a lethal dose of poison" in the form of the New World Order. The debut of the famous WWF history video set to Kid Rock's "Lonely Road of Faith" on Raw as Ric Flair begs Vince not to bring back the nWo. Details on the upcoming brand split and how that will affect everything. Satoshi Kojima having his last New Japan match before leaving for All Japan at Korakuen Hall as the NJPW/AJPW bad blood is at a fever pitch. Just who exactly was Darkness Dragon in Toryumon, and was it always the same person? (Yes, it was.) Mirko Cro Cop beating up more pro wrestlers. Arturo Rivera going on AAA TV and talking about Konnan being on steroids in the ‘90s. Reckless Youth and Mike Quackenbush open up a wrestling school in Pennsylvania. Low-Ki throws a temper tantrum backstage at an ICW show in Queens after his match with Sabu turns out to be a disaster. Joanie Laurer has a bad day on "The Other Half,” the syndicated show that positioned itself as “‘The View’ for men.” Randy Savage taking over the book for Andrew McManus' WWA…in theory. All sorts of XWF wackiness from the NATPE convention. We’ve got a stacked show here, folks, so don't miss out!!! Timestamps: 0:00:00 WWF 2:25:42 Classic Commercial Break 2:29:51 Halftime 2:55:59 Eurasia: NJPW, AJPW, NOAH, DDT, FMW, Toryumon, T2P, K-1, Pancrase, AJW, Arsion, GAEA, Jd’, JWP, NEO Ladies, & TWA (UK) 2:47:28 Other North America: BCW, Stampede, ECCW, AAA, CMLL, IWRG, Monterrey, Tijuana, IWAPR, & WWC 4:14:37 Other USA: Wrestle Factory, ICW NY, NWA NJ, Steve Wilkos/MarylandCW, Bobby Eaton, NWA Wildside, TCW, IPW (FL), NEPW, IWF, IWAMS, MidwestCW, NWA World Tag Team Titles, Memphis, Eddy Guerrero, Terry Funk/EWF (TX), WLW, Mick Karch, WCWA (CA), Nikki, Chyna, UPW, WWA, & XWF
