Wrestling Mayhem Show 581: Three Pieces of Ham

They haven’t kicked us out of the new studio space, so we’re back for the second week from our digs on Broadway Avenue.  This week Sorg, Larry, Rob and Bobby are joined by Billy Ruxpin to chat about what’s happening in wrestling:WMS

  • If you stopped watching RAW at 10:15, you were good to go.
  • RAW was in Pittsburgh last night. Yep. We were there.
  • MizTV and Jason Jordan are topping the show chatter tonight.
  • Best part of the Kurt Angle and Jason Jordan visit to Pittsburgh could have been the very Pittsburgh family aspect.
  • Larry is calling for a DNA test error angle with Kurt Angle and Jason Jordan.
  • John Cena and Shinsuke Nakamura? We enjoyed it, but it was obvious Cena is heading out to do some stuff.
  • Jinder and Shinsuke. Larry is calling for a cash-in after the match.
  • We’re actually happy to see big guys beating the crap out of each other!
  • We’re actually discussing things commentators say during matches.
  • If you’re going to piss JBL off, it’s best to do it on air apparently.
  • Enzo isn’t liked because he’s Enzo 24/7?
  • We’re waiting to see Braun do a shooting star press off the top rope!
  • Sorg got to experience RAW with a child last night. It reminded him of why he got into wrestling.
  • What happened to Miz and Ambrose?
  • This week’s Big Question: Which UFC or WWE star would you like to see cross over to the other?
  • Shane-O-Mac was in a helicopter crash and is even more badass!
  • Is there too much wrestling podcasting happening these days?
  • What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?

Mayhem Mania 2017: Round 8

This. is. Mayhem Mania!

Not quite a game. Not really a contest. More like a competitive thought experiment. The object is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – NOT necessarily to predict what WWE will do.

This is not fantasy booking (even though it kind of is). Any match created must be possible in real life. That means all wrestlers come in their current physical, emotional and contractual state. Anyone selected for a match must have a reasonable chance of being hired by WWE to appear on the real-life WrestleMania card. Simply put, you’re Vince McMahon with infinite cash and no self-control.

Things are really heating up as we cross the halfway point in Mayhem Mania 2017.

First, let’s take a look back at how we got here. We started by creating 8 matches for our card. Then, we started making changes. Here’s where you can catch up on those made in Round 1, Round 2, Round 3 and Round 4. This past Tuesday night on Wrestling Mayhem Show 559 we saw another series of moves, including one of the most controversial we’ve seen this year.
