Main Event Marks

This is the match that kicked off the infamous Ric Flair/Ricky Steamboat trilogy of 1989. While this was before the Marks' time, they can appreciate some old school NWA. The show may have dragged in the beginning, but it picked up near the end. A lot of moving and shaking happened during this time period, including big controversies with the WWF admitting publicly that wrestling is "fake" *gasp* and some backstabbing to Ted Turner by pay-per-view providers. Hear what the Marks have to say about this epic, classic pay-per-view as they also run down tons of news and notes!FOLLOW US ON TWITTER & INSTAGRAM: @MainEvent_MarksFOLLOW US ON FACEBOOK: www.facebook.com/maineventmarkspodSEARCH FOR US ON YOUTUBE: Main Event Marks--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mainevent-marks/support Learn more about your ad choices.

A sleeper show from a sleeper year. After one of the best, unsung WrestleManias of all time (21), Vengeance kind of played as the buffer to where the WrestleMania feuds ended and the SummerSlam feuds began. John Cena had just been drafted to RAW and was made to defend his WWE Title against Christian and Chris Jericho in a Triple Threat match, Shawn Michaels attempts to avenge his WrestleMania loss against Kurt Angle in another classic encounter, Edge and Kane battled it out right before the previously fired Matt Hardy made his return, Batista and Triple H close out their World Heavyweight Title feud in a bloody, brutal Hell in a Cell match before Batista gets drafted to SmackDown, and so much more took place on this RAW brand exclusive pay-per-view! The Marks (Troy & Greg) will talk about the feuds, the matches, toys and collectibles that relate to the show, and give some personal wrestling convention stories to go along with the pay-per-view.FOLLOW US ON TWITTER & INSTAGRAM: @MainEvent_Marks--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mainevent-marks/support Learn more about your ad choices.
