Joe and Andy take a broad look at episodes 23 and 24 of Powerrr, while dealing with heavy topics such as Nick Aldis action figures, Sazeracs, Taterville, boredom, and how to win a wrestling match against Tyrus. 

Back into the Fire

Taterville, Action Figures and Memory Loss

The Deans of NWA Podcasting are back to review the National Wrestling Alliance's first pay-per-view event in more than a year, Back for the Attack, and they take a look at the episode 22 of NWA Powerrr. Other topics of discussion include: The Nick Aldis Windsor knot, how to escape a Full Nelson, the number one female jobber, AEW chants, and Thunderfoot! 

The Powerrr is back on!

The National Wrestling Alliance is gearing up for their first pay-per-view event in more than a year, and NWA Powerrr is allegedly on the horizon. We preview the upcoming show and wildly speculate on match-ups. 

The NWA is back and so are we!

What were the best moments in the National Wrestling Alliance in 2020? What were the worst? In a year in which a worldwide pandemic managed to ruin just about everything, there were still some bright spots in the NWA. In our final episode of 2020, we try to separate the wheat from the chaff and look towards 2021.

Hits and Misses

The National Wrestling Alliance launches a new show, Shockwave, but how does it measure up to Powerrr? Also, the NWA loses another key member, and future production has halted again as Covid-19 ravages California. In the meantime, we mark out over an appearance of one of our favorite wrestlers on a recent episode of AEW Dynamite.

Making Ripples, Errr, Waves...

The NWA's light continues to fade away as more wrestlers announce departures from the organization. On the one-year anniversary of our show, we struggle to find anything worth talking about, but there's always Thunder Rosa -- and video games.

Life Support

We take a look at recent episodes of Primetime Live, including a battle between Zicky Dice and Pope for the TV Championship. Meanwhile, more key NWA talent has left the organization, but president Billy Corgan tells fans to "hang in there," because Powerrr could be back soon.

"Hang in There"

Trevor Murdoch brings home the NWA’s national title, we review two episodes of the United Wrestling Network’s Primetime Live, and the NWA sends fans a survey, but what does it mean for the future of the organization? We try to figure it out. 

Catching Four Minutes of Heat

On this episode we cover Thunder Rosa's recent matches, remember Road Warrior Animal, and we take a look at hits and misses from the first two episodes of the United Wrestling Network's Primetime Live, featuring matches with the NWA's Nick Aldis, Thunder Rosa, Eli Drake, and Kamille. Other detours along the way include craft beer, Ring of Honor, luxury cars of the 1980s, and we wonder if the "10 Pounds of Gold" is short a few ounces after Nick Aldis' match with Mike Bennett!

Into the Primetime Live Fire

There have been stirrings in the National Wrestling Alliance recently, so we shocked the podcast back to life for some surly palaver on a wide range of topics including: How AEW is looking more like the NWA these days; a new NWA pay-per-view option; Nick Aldis the soccer dad; the apotheosis of Thunder Rosa; who fled the NWA and who's left; custom wrestling matches, disgruntled Zoom meetings, and more.

Back from the Dead

The #SpeakingOut movement rocked professional wrestling last week, leading to serious allegations against many involved in the sport. One report aimed at NWA vice president Dave Lagana, has had a chilling effect on the organization. With Lagana out, the NWA has ceased production of new content, and it's unlikely we'll see any wrestling from them until 2021. This effectively ends the Back into the Fire podcast ... or does it? Joe and Andy try to make sense of it all. 

Is This the End?

We take a look at the first painful episodes of the NWA's Carnyland series; NXT puts on a clinic with their recent "pit fight" battle; and we wonder if Elon Musk could save professional wrestling.

The Human Condition

Joe and Andy ponder what WPC's enigmatic "Carnyland" might be, while rambling on a variety of topics including weird merch, ineffective pile drivers, the slow-motion belly-to-belly suplex, the future of the NWA, Tasha Steelz, AEW and more. 

Is this Carnyland?

Joe and Andy ponder the tough questions: Will Kamille end us all? Do wrestlers have a "safe word?" How did Marty Scurll make it sound like he was breaking Nick Aldis' fingers? Why would anyone want to wrestle New Jack? Did John Stossel try to ruin our childhood? How far can Marko Stunt be thrown by Lance Archer? Also, when will we see the NWA in action again?

The Dark Side of the Podcast
