WWF SummerSlam 1991 - Nip-kabobs?! 1:50:59

7d ago1:50:59

1:50:59

It's SUMMER SLAAAAAAAM (We hope you read that in Vince's voice). This is the show that made Justin fall in love with wrestling...and it's not just because of the romantic wedding at the end either! Mr. Perfect vs. Bret Hart for the IC Title was pure magic. Oh and guess what? Hulk Hogan wins the main event. Shocker.…

WCW Great American Bash 1991 - The Debut of a Stone Cold Legend 1:37:32

14d ago1:37:32

1:37:32

"THEY SHOULDA CANCELED IT!" yelled Michelle, several times in this episode. This episode was snakebitten (and not by Damien, ha!) from the beginning. The show was almost entertaining with how wrong every thing seemed to go... and the solutions WCW came up with at the time were a bit questionable. Oh, and with alllll the cluster f*ckery going on... …

WCW SuperBrawl 1991 - If They Only Had a Brain... 1:41:32

21d ago1:41:32

1:41:32

Oh boy. Justin and Michelle cover WCW SuperBrawl 1991, which includes one of the most "WTF" moments in wrestling history. Poor Kevin Nash. How his career took off after this, is beyond us. Not only did we get to see the Great and Powerful Oz (but he's not Oz? But he is?), but we also see a stretcher match, in which the stretcher isn't used in the m…

WWF WrestleMania 7 - FEIN FEIN FEIN (Or Bean?) 1:53:32

28d ago1:53:32

1:53:32

Coming off of last weekend's WrestleMania 41, Justin & Michelle cannot get the "fein fein fein" off of their brains (unfortunately). They are, however, pleased to announce that the ending of this show was significantly better than the WrestleMania 41 ending! Along with that positive note, Bobby Heenan has finally joined commentary. In addition, we …

WCW WrestleWar 1991 - Good Lookin' Brown Sugar! 1:46:02

1M ago1:46:02

1:46:02

It's WAR GAMES!! Dusty Rhodes is back in WCW, but on commentary! He's a funny guy with great insight, once you get used to his voice and can understand him. We also get our first women's match in YEARS...well, a couple months in our show's timeline. Justin squeezes in some Rick Knox jokes. Lastly, we see our first major botch since beginning Rassle…

WWF Royal Rumble 1991 - Movie Theater Pants & Big Teef 1:42:18

1M ago1:42:18

1:42:18

1991 is starting off with a bang! The best show of the year, The Royal Rumble, is always a favorite with Justin and Michelle. However, this was kind of a weird show! Especially because Justin won't stop doing his cringey "neckbeard" voice. Gross. We DO get probably the best Royal Rumble entrance and exit (within about 5 seconds of each other) of al…

WCW Starrcade 1990 - Shiny Oatmeal?!?! 1:54:10

2M ago1:54:10

1:54:10

Starrcade is typically a fan favorite (especially with Justin and Michelle). This year is a bit of an exception. It's a worldwide tag tournament, with some random non-tournament tag matches thrown in, a SHOCKING (ha), yet terrible reveal of the Black Scorpion and, according to Justin, shiny oatmeal?!…

WWF Survivor Series 1990 - The Notorious Gobbledy Gooker 1:37:24

2M ago1:37:24

1:37:24

Oh man, we've made it! It's THAT time! The Gobbledy Gooker makes his first appearance on this special Thanksgiving show! That's not the only someone that makes their first appearance, but the Gobbledy Gooker isn't quite as legendary as... THE UNDERTAKER. Every thing is now right in the world. Lastly...for Pete's sake, keep politics out of wrestling…

WCW Halloween Havoc 1990 - Move Over, David Copperfield 1:20:36

2M ago1:20:36

1:20:36

Warning: This is a BIZARRE wrestling show to watch! Justin and Michelle discuss the Black Scorpion and his big magic trick that had JR speechless, the Phantom of the Microphone Tony Schiavone and the weirdest ending to a match that we've seen yet. To top it all off... this episode of RassleRecap ends SO hilariously, yet so perfectly for this partic…

SURPRISE Mini Epsiode - Sting & Mick Foley Meet & Greet 26:41

2M ago26:41

26:41

SURPRISE! It's a Monday and you're getting a new episode! Well, a mini episode! Michelle met her HERO, Sting, along with wrestling legend Mick Foley this weekend at Permian Basin Comic Con. She asked them a few questions that they probably don't get asked too often. Who does STING think was his most legendary rivalry? Who does he think could have p…

WWF SummerSlam 1990 - Michelle Jinxed Us 1:46:55

2M ago1:46:55

1:46:55

Just when Michelle said she appreciates how the excessive backstage interviews have gone away, WWF SummerSlam 1990 happened! With many matches under 5 minutes, this show was an interesting one! Sweet Sapphire was kidnapped (or was she?), we get the debut of a famous Von Erich and Rick Rude cut off his mullet. Lastly, Psychosis also makes his WWF de…

WCW Great American Bash 1990 - VADER Has Arrived!! 1:39:40

3M ago1:39:40

1:39:40

The Great American Bash is always a great show and 1990 is no exception! Although there is some pretty problematic gear on the Southern Boys, Justin & Michelle feel redeemed with Sting's classic American look. Vader arrives with a 2 minute squash match (poor Z-Man). Lastly, this is the last time we see Mean Mark as...not the Undertaker.…

WCW Capital Combat 1990 - RoboCop AND A Slam-O-Meter! 1:35:05

3M ago1:35:05

1:35:05

Regardless of what Justin thinks, WCW Capital Combat 1990 has an incredible appearance by THE RoboCop, as well as a return of the Junkyard Dog, Cornette in a cage, and another banger from Ric Flair and Lex Luger. What more could you ask for in 1990?! Well... maybe a little less guyliner on Tony Schiavone.…

WWF WrestleMania 6 - Goodbye Jesse & Andre! 1:42:05

3M ago1:42:05

1:42:05

WWF WrestleMania 6 is a long one! 13 matches. However, 11 of them are less than 10 minutes long. Thankfully, Justin and Michelle wrap it all up into one hilarious hour (and a half) package for you! This is the last time we will have Jesse Ventura on commentary, which is devastating to Michelle. In addition, this is Andre's last time in the ring on …

WWF WrestleWar 1990 - The Undertaker Was A Ginger?! 1:35:20

3M ago1:35:20

1:35:20

Please excuse Justin's funky audio! We tried to clean it up as best as possible! This is a VERY exciting show, simply for the fact that we get our debut of not only Mean Mark Callous aka THE UNDERTAKER, but also, Cactus Jack Manson aka Mick Foley. Spoiler alert: Cactus Jack was... kind of hot? Along with that, JR talks a lot about education and see…

WWF Royal Rumble 1990 - Big Bossman Needs Botox 1:43:32

4M ago1:43:32

1:43:32

Justin & Michelle turned that dial on the ol' time machine and have entered the greatest decade of all time, THE NINETIES!!! What better way to start it off than with the best show of the year (subject to opinion) the ROYAL RUMBLE? Along with some other great matches, we get the debut of Sapphire, a return of Brother LOVE and we say bye-bye to The …

WWF No Holds Barred: The Match/The Movie - Yep. It's Dookie. 38:27

4M ago38:27

38:27

Welcome to the shortest episode of RassleRecap yet! One match, one movie, and a whole lot of dookie. Vince McMahon & Hulk Hogan supposedly wrote this movie in one day. After seeing the film, we actually kind of believe it. After the movie, there is a PPV with ONE tag team match. Why did Brutus and Randy need to be there?! There is a LOT to unpack i…

WCW Starrcade 1989 - We Miss Luby's. 1:26:02

4M ago1:26:02

1:26:02

Justin & Michelle review WCW Starrcade 1989. The two are feeling very nostalgic; referencing 3 Ninjas, Vegas Vacation and Luby's. #TheGreenSquare Although Starrcade 1989 has 2 round robin tournaments, there isn't a lack of excitement...because Jim Cornette is on commentary. Never a dull moment!By rasslerecap

WWF Survivor Series 1989 - Stop Slapping The Snake! 1:30:58

4M ago1:30:58

1:30:58

Justin & Michelle tackle the feat that is WWF Survivor Series 1989. Five matches, 4 wrestlers on each team, 2 teams per match, one dang format for all the matches. Thankfully, the dynamic duo finds a way to make this exciting! However, Michelle is NOT happy with Jake slapping the head of his snake over and over. #metaphor…

WWF SummerSlam 1989 - F$&@ It!!! 1:34:54

5M ago1:34:54

1:34:54

Justin & Michelle have made it to the back half of 1989! WWF SummerSlam 1989 was a weird one, with a few snafus that led to Mean Gene dropping the F bomb on live television. Another large snafu is not having Gorilla Monsoon with Jesse on commentary... which Justin & Michelle have thoughts about. However, DUSTY RHODES RETURNS in his signature black …

WCW Great American Bash 1989 - Is That An Alligator?!? 1:55:21

6M ago1:55:21

1:55:21

The duo travels back in time to Baltimore to watch WCW Great American Bash 1989! The show starts off hot with a 14-man battle royal, then the poor wrestlers all have a second match on the same show....well, most of them do. There's a Bloodhound, a Komodo dragon and Bill Irwin. Most importantly, Ric Flair heads to Funky town for the main event with …

1:58:42

Join Justin & Michelle as they head to Nashville for WCW WrestleWar 1989! Junkyard Dog didn't show up, The Iron Sheik returned, and Rikishi is working under an alias known as "Fatu." We also learned that Justin did taekwondo?! Who knew?! Lastly, why the heck wasn't the Flair vs. Steamboat match not the FINAL main event?…

6M ago2:21:27

2:21:27

Justin and Michelle tackle WWF WrestleMania 5 and it's a long one! 14 matches in one show makes for a tedious watch. However, Tony Schivaone makes his first WWF appearance. Mr. Fuji is shirtless. The Bushwhackers are licking people. Elizabeth can't pick a man. Hulk Hogan is a heel.By rasslerecap

WCW Chi-Town Rumble 1989 - Best Match of All Time?! 1:44:28

6M ago1:44:28

1:44:28

It's 1989 and we are in CHICAGO for the Chi-Town Rumble! WCW is continuing to get its feet wet in the world of wrestling pay-per-views. However, they do have a bit of an identity crisis on if they want to be called "WCW" or "NWA." Nevermind that! Chi-Town Rumble might be a "one and done" pay-per-view, but many consider the main event of this show t…

1:45:20

We have finally arrived at WCW...except, it's still technically an NWA show? Regardless, Starrcade 1988 has leveled up! Unfortunately, after this show, several key pieces of talent will move to the WWF. Dusty Rhodes gets fired after this show for being TOO hardcore! Lastly, the ending of the final match has Michelle PISSED and Justin knew it was co…

7M ago1:48:20

1:48:20

Justin & Michelle cover the inaugural SummerSlam from 1988! Unfortunately, Justin finds a way to bring up "the muffler" again, ew. Although the duo believes a lot of these matches weren't necessary on this pay-per-view card, there were definitely a few stand outs...and a very depressing story about KoKo BWare's parrot, Frankie. RIP, dear bird.…

Justin & Michelle discuss the FIRST WWF Royal Rumble from 1988. This show was broadcast in direct competition with NWA Bunkhouse Stampede. Will it come out on top?
