    Revisiting WWF RAW 1996 - Jim Ross Brings Razor Ramon & Diesel Back To The WWF!

    05/05/2026 | 1h 35 mins.
    "Far as I know, that's Razor Ramon!"

    On this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF Monday Night RAW from September 30th, 1996. Everyone has been glued to their screens, waiting for the returns of Razor Ramon & Diesel to the WWF. Everyone thought they were long gone, taking over WCW as Scott Hall & Kevin Nash, but Good Ol' Jim Ross has come up with an unbelievable plan which involves bringing the very real Razor Ramon & Diesel back home. We've seen glimpses of them, and last week on RAW, JR re-introduced The Bad Guy to the WWF! It is 100% without a doubt a man named Razor Ramon.

    We're blessed with the in-ring return of Razor Ramon here on RAW, as well as promised an appearance by Big Daddy Cool, Diesel! Gorilla Monsoon, Jerry Lawler, Kevin Kelly, and really the entire company all have an issue with this. Gorilla Monsoon goes as far as to come out during Razor Ramon's match to tell JR that the WWF had nothing to do with this, and that this is very obviously NOT Razor Ramon or Diesel!

    Undertaker & Mankind are getting themselves prepared for the first ever "Buried Alive" match at In Your House, and what better way to prepare themselves than to hang around in a graveyard and mess with some dirt?

    Also on this episode, Stone Cold Steve Austin goes one-on-one with Jake Roberts, The Godwinns take on The Grimms, and we can't forget our huge main event! Shawn Michaels teams up with his mentor, Jose Lothario, to take on the team of Vader & Jim Cornette!

    All of that, and much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

    Revisiting WWE RAW 2007 - Kevin Federline Faces John Cena

    28/04/2026 | 1h 48 mins.
    "I'd like to formally introduce myself.."

    It's a new year for the WWE. In fact, it's New Year's Day! It's January 1st, 2007, and the big match going into this one is the first time encounter between John Cena, and "A-List Celebrity" Kevin Federline. Federline cost Cena a match at the Cyber Sunday PPV a couple months back, and then challenged him to this match here on the first RAW of the year. Yes, Kevin Federline made the challenge to the current WWE Champion, and he accepted.

    Kevin Federline isn't the only person John Cena has to worry about, though. We're less than a week away from WWE New Year's Revolution, where Cena will be defending his WWE Championship against Umaga. Not only will we see these two also go at it on this show, but Jonathan Coachman, the man in charge of RAW, puts himself, Umaga, Armando Estrada, & Johnny Nitro in a 4-on-1 handicap match against Cena as well!

    Speaking of New Year's Revolution, Rated RKO & D-Generation X are set to go at it after weeks of Edge & Randy Orton attacking Shawn Michaels & Triple H, as well as one of their close friends & mentors, Ric Flair. DX, of course, address this in the only way they know how.

    Ric Flair will also be wrestling on this show, as he teams with Carlito to take on Kenny Dykstra, who just beat Ric Flair last week, and Chris Masters, who will face Carlito at the PPV. Also on this show, Jeff Hardy faces Rob Conway in a match where Conway puts his career on the line, Melina takes on Maria, and Cryme Tyme (Shad & JTG) team with The Highlanders (Robbie & Rory McAllister) to face Lance Cade, Trevor Murdoch, & The World's Greatest Tag Team (Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas).

    It doesn't get more 2007 than this. 

    All of that, and much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

    Revisiting WWF Superstars of Wrestling 1991 - Jake Roberts' Snake Bites Macho Man!

    21/04/2026 | 1h 44 mins.
    "GET RANDY SAVAGE OUTTA' THERE!"

    One of the most insane moments to take place in pro-wrestling history not only happened on television, but it was long before the WWF had an 'attitude'! 

    On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling from November 23, 1991, where Jake "The Snake" Roberts unleashes his deadliest attack on "Macho Man" Randy Savage. With Macho Man trapped in the ropes, Jake Roberts brought a King Cobra over to him just so it could take a big bite out of Macho Man's arm! Censored on some stations, uncensored on others, this was one of the craziest things to happen on WWF TV.

    We're also on the road to WWF Survivor Series 1991, which took place on the Wednesday following this episode of Superstars of Wrestling. The biggest match on the card is the "Gravest Challenge", which puts current WWF Champion Hulk Hogan against The Undertaker. We hear from both of them, especially The Undertaker, throughout the night.

    Speaking of Survivor Series, you can't have a Survivor Series without the traditional Survivor Series matches! Survivor Series! We hear from various teams on this show, like the team of the Legion of Doom & Big Bossman, as well as the team of Ric Flair, The Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase, The Mountie, and The Warlord!

    We do get some wrestling on this show, as well! Many of the best enhancement talent in the world step up to the plate here, to take on the likes of "El Matador" Tito Santana, Skinner and Texas Tornado. Bret Hart also defends the WWF Intercontinental Championship against Big Bully Busick!

    All of that, and much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

    Revisiting WWF RAW Is WAR 1999 - The Rock, The British Bulldog, & The Dog Poop

    14/04/2026 | 1h 55 mins.
    "INTO THE DOG POOP! THE DOG POOP!"

    Some moments just last the tests of time, and somehow, this is one of them for us. On this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF RAW is WAR from October 11, 1999. We're less than a week away from WWF No Mercy, which means we have to cram as much as possible into this show, as well as SmackDown!, before the PPV. We're also in the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia, so the WWF is ready to take as many shots at WCW as possible!

    In our main event, that is announced halfway through the show, The Rock & Sock Connection of The Rock & Mankind will team up to take on The British Bulldog & Val Venis, who had just attacked Mankind earlier in the night. The Rock has plans for his opponent at WWF No Mercy, The British Bulldog, and those plans involve a group of bulldogs spending the night in the arena, so he can collect ALL of their dog poop. Yes, The Rock came up with this plan, just so he could hit The British Bulldog with The Rock Bottom onto a tray of dog poop.

    Also on this show, Jim Ross has his first wrestling match ever. We couldn't believe it either! Triple H has pushed JR over the edge, causing him to attack him from behind. Stone Cold Steve Austin gave an assist to take out Triple H, leading to Triple H & Chyna both challenging Stone Cold & JR to a tag match tonight.

    There is somehow so much more on this show. We get an update on Stephanie McMahon's condition after Bulldog accidentally threw a STEEL TRASH CONTAINER at her head. Ivory has a non-title match against Mae Young. X-Pac doesn't want Kane's help, as he goes one-on-one with Faarooq. The New Brood of Jeff Hardy & Matt Hardy take on Edge & Christian in another Terri Invitational Tournament match. The Big Show gets some horrible news, and The Big Bossman is here to make it worse. 

    All of that, and SO much more, on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

    Revisiting TNA iMPACT 2007 - Kurt Angle Interrogates The Roster To Find Sting's Mystery Partner!

    07/04/2026 | 1h 55 mins.
    The constantly paranoid Kurt Angle is back at it again, only slightly removed from the episode where he went to Sting's son's baseball game, and then attacked him in the parking lot. This time, Kurt is trying to figure out who is going to team up with Sting at TNA Genesis 2007, as he's been placed in a tag team match for his World Heavyweight Championship.

    Yes, that's right. The TNA World Championship is on the line in a tag team match on PPV. Kurt is teaming up with his now-rival, Kevin Nash, to take on Sting & a partner of Sting's choosing. Kurt has taken it upon himself, with help from his partner-in-crime "JB" Jeremy Borash, to interrogate the members of the TNA roster to find out who this mystery partner could be. From Jay Lethal, to Robert Roode, to Kip James & BG James, and everyone in-between, they all have to take a seat and get questioned by Kurt Angle.

    While this is going on, we do have some wrestling! The TNA World Tag Team Championships are on the line, as the current champions AJ Styles & Tomko take on LAX, Homicide & Hernandez. The Fight For Your Right tournament for a shot at the TNA World Championship is also going on, as we're onto the semi finals. James Storm is set to take on Kaz, and Christian Cage was meant to take on Junior Fatu (Rikishi), but he is not here. We do not know why. Does anyone want to tell us why?

    Kevin Nash is also on his own mission to find out who Sting's partner is at the PPV, and we check in on him through the night as he makes some phone calls to some "friends". One of them may or may not be X-Pac.

    Also, Team 3D continue their fight against the X-Division, now going after the Motor City Machine Guns of Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley. Awesome Kong also goes one-on-one with Christy Hemme, with her sights set on the TNA Knockout's Champion, Gail Kim. It also wouldn't be 2007 TNA without an appearance from BLACK REIGN!

    All of this, and SO much more, on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast!
