Listened to ATB today and Ali was very good & gave a really great perspective on Retribution, well worth a listen.

I feel dumb. What’s ATB? 

Edit: oh, After The Bell. I’m so used to not paying attention to official WWE stuff. Might check this out though.

Dude, honestly, if it wasn’t for Graves referring to it that way a million times an episode, I wouldn’t know either!

SCG Radio is back this week to kick off a series covering the WWF in 1991 - two parts are now online covering January through to March: the first part looking at the Sgt. Slaughter angle that kicked off the year, all the controversy and media issues around the character, the decision to take the WWF Title off the Ultimate Warrior, the presentation of the angle as well as backstage notes on feelings behind-the-scenes, the show breaks down Vince McMahon's terrible decision to exploit the Persian Gulf War so shamelessly. In the second part, we talk about WrestleMania 7, all the highs and lows of the show, notes on the success or failure of the event (spoiler: it was a failure), moves Vince McMahon made between January and March in the bodybuilding world, a notable doctor gets indicted, and we talk all about the undercard scene for the first three months of the year, all with notes, facts and figures from the Wrestling Observer newsletters of the period. A really fun period of reflect on...

Richard Slinger on working for AJPW in the Four Pillars era:

(Not a podcast. An article.)

This is interesting. I'd heard that NJPW recruits learn some legit fighting skills as part of their training, but I didn't know that was true of AJPW also. Not surprising, but cool to have it confirmed.
