DEADLOCK: A Pro Wrestling Podcast

"THIS IS BULL.."

We're on the road to WWF WrestleMania 13, but before we get there, we have to set into the WAR ZONE. That's right, it's WWF Monday Night RAW is WAR, which is a really long name that eventually is just WWF RAW is WAR! There's a lot of big matches coming up on this PPV, and we get a little piece of all of them on this very show.

Of course, this is the episode of RAW where Bret Hart, after a main event cage match for the WWF Championship against Sycho Sid, loses his mind. He feels like everyone is against him, and he decides to take out that frustration verbally after pushing Vince McMahon down to the canvas! That main event also includes run-ins from Stone Cold Steve Austin & The Undertaker, who both want their opponent at WrestleMania 13 to leave this show with the WWF Championship, so they can get a shot at it.

Also on this show, we get to hear from Shawn Michaels, who just recently returned to the WWF, and we get an updated on his condition. Faarooq & Ahmed Johnson are barred from ringside during a match between the Legion of Doom & the Nation of Domination, which leads to some backstage chaos between the two. Ken Shamrock is here to scout a legend in Aaron Ferguson, and Billy Gunn also happens to be here getting in the way of that.

Of course, we have to mention the REAL main event; Mini Vader & Mini Mankind take on Mini Goldust & Mascarita Sagrada. It does not get any better than this.

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

"IT'S TOMMY'S?!"

On this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at this episode of ECW Hardcore TV from January 16, 1996. ECW only continues to get bigger, and the bigger they get, the crazier the show gets. This is a prime example of ECW at it's most "ECW".

In one of the more infamous moments in company history, Beulah McGillicutty, Raven's "girlfriend", has a confession on this episode, and it's that she's pregnant. Raven immediately thinks it's Stevie Richards, and attacks him, only for Beulah to finally admit that the baby's father is Tommy Dreamer. 
Also on this show, we see the return of "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, coming off of his run in the WWF as Dean Douglas. He's back, and he has mind set on fixing ECW; and he starts by slapping Buh Buh Ray Dudley in the face. Buh Buh, of course, has a match with Gigolo Jimmy Del Ray!

This episode also starts with the most insane 20 minutes of back-to-back moments, including the likes of Bill Alfonso, Taz, 911, Rey Mysterio Jr, The Eliminators, and somehow even more than that!

Of course, we can't forget the most prestigious award show going; The DEADIES! That's right, the 7th Annual DEADIES are here, and we have all of the results from your votes for the 2025 season. We go over every category and find out who you chose to win DEADIES awards! HOORAY!

THIS...IS A TEMPLE!
 
The boys are back in town for the 2nd time this week, with DOUBLE DEADLOCK, to continue on the first season of LUCHA UNDERGROUND! We're at the third episode now, and business is really starting to pick up for Dario Cueto. We have a big main event, consisting of three luchadors that will become mainstays here in Lucha Underground for years to come.

Konnan has told Dario Cueto that he can't say that his Temple has the best luchadores in the world, if he doesn't have these three talents from Mexico; Pentagon Junior, Fenix, and Drago. Dario decides that not only does he want to see the three of them, but he wants the three of them to face off against each-other tonight!

Also on this show, we see Mil Muertes step into the ring once again, as his manager, Catrina, continues to promise members of the roster that 1,000 deaths are coming from them. One of those people being Chavo Guerrero, who is now finding out that everyone is out to get him because of what he did to the legendary Blue Demon Jr.

We also get the Lucha Underground debut of a lucha legend, and of course, a DEADLOCK legend, in Mascarita Sagrada!

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

After over twenty years of wrestling running on Saturday's on TBS, WCW decided to re-brand their show to "WCW Saturday Night"!

On this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast, we take a look back at the re-launching of WCW's Saturday Night show, which is now being called, of course, WCW Saturday Night! This "new" show debuted it's new branding on April 4th, 1992. 

Hosted by Jim Ross & Jesse Ventura (for this week), we get a look at WCW's new idea for this show, which involves more of a talk-show feeling to it, as Jim Ross & Jesse Ventura take us through the show by not only showing us matches, but conducting interviews along the way. On this show, you'll see the WCW Light Heavyweight Champion, Brian Pillman, take on Brad Armstrong. We also get a chance to see the Fabulous Freebirds, Michael Hayes & Jimmy Garvin, take on the duo of Diamond Dallas Page & Cactus Jack in a match to get them prepared for their Tag Team Title match next week.

We'll also find out about the personal & professional life of Ron Simmons, who is looking to become the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, which is currently held by Sting, and being hunted down by Big Van Vader & his manager, Harley Race.

In the main event, "Stunning" Steve Austin, accompanied by Paul E. Dangerously (Paul Heyman) defends the WCW Television Championship against The Z-Man in a 2 out of 3 Falls match.

All of that, and much more, on this week's DEADLOCK 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.
