The true story of the end of the podcast, pandemic fun, Brian's recent struggles with weight, not watching wrestling, failed social media gimmicks, being in the #ROHBubble & much more as we dust off the mixer and try to podcast like professionals (and fail).

200 And/Or Bust - Episode 200

Ring Of Honor Wrestling's "The Brawler" Brian Milonas flies solo!

But before the burial, The Brawler addresses some controversy after a clip of him from last week's NWA Powerrr episode began circulating in wrestling trainer circles! Plus, Kingpin wants YOU to submit your Promos About Nothing, and he talks about the unfortunate passing of a New England wrestling mainstay over the weekend.

Justin McIsaac (@Justin_McIsaac), known as Justin Powers or Justin Shaype in the ring, went to high school with Fury and their careers started down the same path, but ended up going in very different directions.

The Interview With Wrestler Turned Broadcaster Justin "Shaype" McIsaac - Episode 198

Ring Of Honor Wrestling's "The Brawler" Brian Milonas and referee Mike Crockett kick it old school without Chaotic Wrestling's Brian Fury this week, and "old school" is our friend Adult Mark's middle name (a weird, two-word middle name, incidentally), so he steps in for our look back at what was the gateway to pro wrestling super fandom back in the day - wrestling magazines! But before we do that, The Brawler recounts in spoiler-free detail his journey to Atlanta for the recent NWA Powerrr tapings, where he debuted alongside his tag team partner the Beer City Bruiser! Hear about his unnecessary Uber ride, who he refused to get in the front seat of the car with, and with which legendary wrestlers he rocked-and-rolled (almost) all night! Also in this episode, Brian checks out on this Promo About Nothing, Crockett's pillow talk, and we do a little apartment wrestling for fun!

Milonas' NWA Adventure & Wrestling Magazines With Adult Mark - Episode 197

Ring Of Honor Wrestling's "The Brawler" Brian Milonas and referee Mike Crockett are without Performance Center regular Brian Fury this week, but they've done this before. Milonas called in a favor, and we've got ROH's play-by-play man Ian Riccaboni (@IanRiccaboni) with us - a guy who made his official debut as lead announcer the same night Brian made his initial ROH appearance! Ian gets into inheriting the announcing mantle from Kevin Kelly, his participation in the upcoming RetroMania Wrestling video game, what goes into preparing for an event, directing traffic in the booth at Madison Square Garden last year (and the history he personally made there), his wrestling debut and the flying elbow heard 'round the world, his Ring Of Honor outlook for 2020, and his new podcast featuring ROH Ambassador Cary Silkin! Plus, of course, burials of Bobby Cruise all around!   Also in this episode, this Promo About Nothing is magnificent, the world's largest druid revealed, and Crockett has a run-in with SNOOP D-O-Double G!

The Interview With Ring Of Honor's Ian Riccaboni - Episode 196

Two pro wrestlers and a referee tear down the curtain to the wrestling business, and tear down each other in the process. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
