216: Main Event Monstors PART DEUX!

Before he was The Undertaker, he was The Master Of Pain! And Texas Red! And Punisher Dice Morgan! Join wrestling superfans Alex Doriot and Travis White on their encyclopedic exploration digging up The Dead Man as they take their time-traveling hearse back to the days before Mark Calaway became The Phenom we know and love and worked the territories back in the late 80s. It's a sequel to our "Main Event Monstors" episode from a couple of years ago as we've unearthed even more fascinating (and often hilarious) footage from Memphis, Texas, and even Japan. We'll take a look at Taker's first ever televised matches as Texas Red against the legendary Bruiser Brody and The Spoiler. Then we'll head back to Jerry Lawler's CWA in Tennessee to watch the Master Of Pain interact with old and new favorites like Ronnie P. Gossett, The Soultaker, Freezer Thompson, Brian Lee, Ken Raper, Nate The Rat, Jeff Jarrett, Jungle Jim, Action Jackson, and more. Plus we'll also explore Punisher Dice Morgan taking on a rookie Steve Williams (a.k.a. Stone Cold Steve Austin) and teaming up with Bam Bam Bigelow to take on some Japanese all-stars. Along the way we'll discuss Ronnie P.'s enlarged heart, part-time Hardee's workers, the differing thermostats in the buildings, a babyface Freddie Krueger, Master Of Pain's "Ricky Bobby"-style promos, and a boxing match you'll have to see to believe. All that plus we hear all about Randy Turco's experience at a recent 1 Deadman Show and we pay tribute to Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. Download, enjoy, and Taker Easy! That it is!
