DEADLOCK: A Pro Wrestling Podcast

The final time you'll see the SmackDown "Oval-Tron" in action.

On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of WWF SmackDown! from August 9, 2001. The Invasion is in full effect, and Stone Cold Steve Austin, the current WWF Champion, looks to continue to lead his team of WCW & ECW wrestlers into SummerSlam. At Summerslam, Austin is set to defend his title against Kurt Angle. But tonight, Austin steps in the ring with The Dudley Boyz, Bubba Ray Dudley & D-Von Dudley, to take on Kurt Angle & The Hardy Boyz, Matt Hardy & Jeff Hardy.

Also on this show, Perry Saturn is going through some troubles, as his precious MOPPY is stolen from him during his match with Raven! Perry gets the police involved. It's that serious. Booker T & Shane McMahon call out The Rock, and X-Pac has an issue with William Regal, leading to a tag match with X-Pac & Albert taking on the returning Spike Dudley & Tajiri!

The WWF & WCW Tag Team Championships are both on the line on this episode of SmackDown, as well. The APA, Bradshaw & Faarooq, defend the WWF Tag Team Titles against DDP & Kanyon, while Sean O'Haire & Chuck Palumbo defend the WCW Tag Team Titles against The Undertaker & Kane.

Of course, we can't forget about the moment on this show that'll be replayed in video packages & intros for years to come; Rhyno attacks Chris Jericho after his match with Hugh Morrus, and GORES him through the SmackDown set.

BANG BANG! A signing that Jeff Jarrett calls the 'greatest acquisition in TNA history' (because he hates Kurt Angle) has finally arrived to the iMPACT Zone! Mick Foley is here for the first time in-person on a TNA show!

On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of TNA iMPACT from October 2nd, 2008. Bound For Glory, the biggest event of the year for TNA, is right around the corner, and a lot of things need to be settled. Samoa Joe & Sting are battling over not only the World Championship, but respect. Jeff Jarrett & Kurt Angle have been going back-and-forth for weeks now, and Kurt has finally convinced Jarrett to step back into the ring to face him. Kurt recently did media for TNA over in Europe, which has caused a lot of controversy; so much so, that Jeff Jarrett has to address it in the ring!

Christian Cage isn't sure who to trust, as AJ Styles seems to always find a way to mess something up for them! On this episode of iMPACT, all three of these men will be in the ring together, as Christian Cage teams with AJ Styles & "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal to take on the team of Team 3D & Booker T. Also, ODB has a show-long issue with Velvet Sky & Angelina Love, The Beautiful People, and she needs a partner!

Of course, as we mentioned, Mick Foley will speak in-ring for the first time in front of the iMPACT Zone.

It's November 4th, 2004, and for Kurt Angle, it was supposed to be a regular day in the ring, but what nearly happens could have changed the careers of him & his "opponent" forever!

On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we're going to take a look at the infamous incident between Kurt Angle & Tough Enough Season 4's Daniel Puder. Puder, who is definitely from the UFC, has become a fan favorite as of late on the SmackDown-exclusive "Million Dollar Tough Enough". Al Snow has brought Kurt Angle out to teach these guys a lesson in what it takes to be a WWE Superstar, including doing squats, running, eating pasta, and drinking milk. 

After Kurt puts them through a session of burpees, he asks any of the competitors if they want to get in the ring with him. Daniel Puder is the man to step up to the plate, and everything after that is history.

Also on this episode, Booker T is getting ready for his PPV title match against JBL, but JBL & his "Chief of Staff" Orlando Jordan have come up with a plan to try to take him out before then. Josh Mathews interviews Orlando Jordan before his scheduled match with Booker T, and Orlando & JBL's attitude sets Josh off, leading to him teaming up with Booker T in the MAIN EVENT of this SmackDown to face JBL & Orlando!

We also can't forget that Luther Reigns & Mark Jindrak are on this show. They take on the team of RVD & Rey Mysterio! Spike Dudley & The Dudley Boyz look to take out The Big Show before Survivor Series, and Jackie Gayda looks to defend the honor of her man, Charlie Haas, against Dawn Marie in an Arm Wrestling Contest. 2004 really was special.

WCW emanates from Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas for this edition of WCW Monday Nitro on January 22nd, 1996, where there are not one, but TWO big title matches on hand.
The WCW World Heavyweight Championship is currently held by Ric Flair, and on this edition of WCW Nitro, he defends it against "The Macho Man" Randy Savage. But, this isn't the main event! The second title match, which sees Harlem Heat defending the WCW World Tag Team Championships against Sting & Lex Luger...is also not the main event!
The main event of this show sees Hulk Hogan taking on the current WCW United States Heavyweight Champion, One Man Gang! It is not for the title. Why is it the main event? Because it is, brother.
Of course, Hulk Hogan's eyes aren't set on the US Championship, they're set on the World Championship, and he is hoping that his "friend", Randy Savage, will give him the first shot as champion. The Macho Man sees things a little differently, though.
Also on this show, Dean Malenko takes on the "Loose Cannon", Brian Pillman! All of that, and so much more, on this week's DEADLOCK Podcast!

The boys are back in The Temple!
Last week, we took our first look at Lucha Underground. We had such a good time with it, that we decided for the first time to do a BACK-TO-BACK review, following up on the last episode. This week, we're taking a look at the 2nd episode of Lucha Underground!
Big Ryck, as well as his henchmen Cortez Castro & Cisco are here to run their mouths some more after the damage they dealt out to Johnny Mundo & Prince Puma after last episode's main event. But, Mundo & Puma don't take the trash talk for too long, which brings Dario Cueto to set up a tag match right away!
Chavo Guerrero teams with Sexy Star to take on Son of Havoc & Ivelisse, in a follow up match from last week where Sexy Star was beaten by Son of Havoc (who absolutely pulled the tights, just so you know!). But that's not the last we see of Chavo Guerrero tonight!
Also, in our main event, the debut of 1,000 deaths - Mil Muertes steps into the Temple to take on the winner of last week's main event, Blue Demon Jr!
All of that, and much more, on this week's DEADLOCK Podcast!
