60 acast.com Pro Wrestling Forever Podcast https://shows.acast.com/pro-wrestling-forever-podcast en Pro Wrestling Forever WWF,AWA,NWA,WCW,ECW,Wrestling,WWE,Pro Wrestling Pro Wrestling Forever Pro Wrestling Forever is a podcast for fans who love wrestling without the baggage.


Hosted by Professor Degree and Blade Daily, this show is built on one simple idea: No Masters. No Gatekeepers. No Holds Barred. Just two middle-aged fans who’ve been watching for decades and still believe pro wrestling is at its best when it’s shared—not policed.


Every week, the hosts dive into the full spectrum of professional wrestling—past, present, and everything in between—celebrating the art, the athleticism, and yes… the absurd, the hideous, and the downright dumb. Because wrestling isn’t just one thing. It’s theater. It’s burlesque. It’s drag. It’s violence and choreography. It’s high art and lowbrow chaos. It’s a contradiction—and that’s exactly why it works.


Pro Wrestling Forever doesn’t pretend there’s a “right” way to enjoy wrestling. Whether you see it as sport, soap opera, cartoon, or something else entirely, you’re right. There are no rules here—only perspectives. What works in one era, one ring, or for one performer might completely fall apart somewhere else. And that’s part of the magic.


This podcast isn’t about telling you what’s good or bad. It’s about sharing what we love—and opening the door for you to do the same. It’s about building a community where fans can talk, debate, laugh, and occasionally argue (because let’s be honest… it’s wrestling fans). But at its core, this is a space for dialogue, not division.


We’re not insiders. We’re not experts. We’re just fans who know what makes us happy.


And what makes us happy… is pro wrestling.

(Books Watches It for the First Time)]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2026 07:00:00 GMT 1:42:06 6a289dce262000e47550228a true https://shows.acast.com/pro-wrestling-forever-podcast/episodes/summerslam-1988-review-does-wwfs-first-summerslam-still-hold 6a289dce262000e47550228a 6995d4787012ce537641ddce summerslam-1988-review-does-wwfs-first-summerslam-still-hold full 7 In this episode of Pro Wrestling Forever, Professor Degree and Blade Daily are joined by special guest Books and Bodyslams to review the original SummerSlam from 1988—one of the most important events in wrestling history.


Featuring the Mega Powers (Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage) against the Mega Bucks (Ted DiBiase and André the Giant), the inaugural SummerSlam helped establish what would become one of WWE's signature annual events. But nearly four decades later, does the show still hold up? Which matches feel timeless? Which moments are unmistakably products of the late-1980s wrestling boom?


Adding a unique perspective, Books and Bodyslams watches SummerSlam 1988 for the very first time, giving a modern fan's reaction to a card many longtime fans consider a classic. Join us as we revisit WWF history, explore the legacy of the Mega Powers era, and discuss what still works—and what doesn't—when viewed through today's lens.


Pro Wrestling Forever celebrates wrestling history across every era, from the territorial days to the modern scene. Whether you're a lifelong fan of classic wrestling, vintage WWF, WCW, NWA, ECW, ROH, AEW, NJPW, or you're discovering these legendary events for the first time, this is the podcast for wrestling fans who love the past, present, and future of professional wrestling.

What happens to Sting, Lex Luger, Dusty Rhodes, Ricky Steamboat, and the Four Horsemen? Could Hulk Hogan's WWF have become even more dominant, or would Flair have changed the company's direction entirely?


Join us as we trace the ripple effects across wrestling history, classic wrestling, the NWA, WWF, WCW, WrestleMania, the Monday Night Wars, and beyond. If you love wrestling nostalgia, fantasy booking, deep analysis, wrestling trivia, and exploring how one decision can reshape an entire industry, this is an episode you won't want to miss.


Topics discussed:

  • Ric Flair's rumored 1988 WWF jump
  • Jim Crockett Promotions and Ted Turner's purchase
  • The future of WCW without Flair
  • Sting, Lex Luger, Dusty Rhodes, and the Four Horsemen
  • Hulk Hogan's WWF in an alternate timeline
  • WrestleMania and the changing landscape of wrestling
  • Long-term effects on the Monday Night Wars
  • Fantasy booking wrestling's biggest alternate universe

From the Royal Rumble and Money in the Bank to the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, Casino Gauntlet, King of the Ring, G1 Climax, and beyond, wrestling promotions constantly rely on stipulations designed to instantly create contenders and reshape championship scenes. But do these matches still feel exciting when the pool of believable winners keeps shrinking? Has modern wrestling accidentally trained fans to predict outcomes weeks in advance?


The fellas explore which stipulations still feel prestigious, which ones feel creatively exhausted, and whether wrestling can ever restore genuine suspense to these career-defining matches. Along the way: classic wrestling nostalgia, tournament history, unhinged tangents, and the usual Pro Wrestling Forever sickness.

No masters. No gatekeepers. Just wrestling fandom.

On this episode of Pro Wrestling Forever, Professor Degree and Blade Daily dive deep into wrestling history, classic wrestling, and vintage wrestling nostalgia to explore the greatest factions and stables of all time. From legendary groups that defined entire eras to bizarre disasters that collapsed under their own weight, the fellas break down what separates immortal wrestling factions from total chaos. AEW, NJPW, WCW, WWF, ECW, ROH, and more are all on the table as they debate iconic groups, forgotten favorites, and the members who completely derailed otherwise great stables.


Which factions ended at the perfect time? Which ones overstayed their welcome? And which groups vanished before they could become legendary? Along the way, Degree and Blade discuss wrestling fandom, storytelling, credibility, nostalgia, and why factions remain one of the most important tools in professional wrestling. No gatekeeping. No revisionist history. Just passionate conversation about the art, absurdity, and legacy of pro wrestling.

]]> Best Worst Wrestlers?! | Pro Wrestling Forever Ep. 1 Best Worst Wrestlers?! | Pro Wrestling Forever Ep. 1 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 07:00:00 GMT 1:41:14 69f185012f651f55f53dd3fb true https://sickosclub.com/audio/pro-wrestling-forever-ep-01 69f185012f651f55f53dd3fb 6995d4787012ce537641ddce best-worst-wrestlers-pro-wrestling-forever-ep-1 full 1 In the debut episode of Pro Wrestling Forever, Professor Degree and Blade Daily dive headfirst into one of the most chaotic and revealing topics in wrestling history: “Best Worst Wrestlers.” From classic wrestling and vintage wrestling eras to modern contradictions, they break down the performers who had everything… except the one thing they needed most. Whether it’s unbelievable look with no in-ring ability, elite workrate with zero charisma, or baffling careers that somehow thrived anyway—this episode challenges the conventional wisdom that wrestling fans have accepted for decades.


This is pro wrestling nostalgia, analysis, and debate at its most unfiltered—covering multiple eras, promotions, and the strange magic that makes pro wrestling what it is. No gatekeeping. No sacred cows. Just honest conversation about the best, worst, and “terribly great” wrestlers of all time. Who’s your Best Worst Wrestler? Jump into the conversation and be part of the fandom that celebrates every corner of wrestling—from the legendary to the completely absurd.
