Burying all the trauma from past nights
Burying my anger in the past

Source of current thread title



The last thread reached around 1000 pages and a lot has changed since the original thread with everyone and their mother seems to have created a wrestling podcast.

Here is an evergrowing list of podcasts that you can listen for your wrestlegraps needs! This is not a recommendation of podcasts to listen to but rather a ill-conceived catch most list for wrestling podcasts that you can listen to...whether you do listen to any listed, is at your own discretion.

Wrestling Observer/Figure Four-subscribers get 3 Meltzer Podcasts a week, plus more if there's a UFC or a WWE show. Also you get the very funny Bryan and Vinny show that reviews current and old wrestling which is actually good unlike most "2 people watch old wresting" shows. If you factor in getting to read the Observer every week it's probably worth it just for the 3 Meltzer podcasts and everything else is just gravy but there are some people that listen to them all.

Live Audio Wrestling- It's a Toronto-based weekly radio show that airs every Sunday on Sirius (you can also listen online). They upload the show to their website after it airs and if you listen to it this way they also include a podcast of reviews done by a couple of their hosts. The same two hosts also do weekly reviews of raw and impact.

Art of Wrestling Weekly show hosted by indie wrestler Colt Cabana. He interviews a different person every week and it's generally pretty drat entertaining. Probably one of the first wrestlers to get into the podcasting game.

Wrestlecrap Radio

PW Torch They do something like three shows a week and they're OK, but nothing special and the website is loaded with popups

Smart Wrestling Fan A goon created podcast.

Voices of Wrestling Voices of Wrestling is a collection of podcasts talking about most things Wrestling Related from Dragon Gate stuff to WWE to NJPW.

Steve Austin
Steve Austin Clean One of the standouts back in the day as we got insights into Austin's personal life and his thoughts on things in Wresting. Now..it's not as entertaining in my opinion but hey, for those nostalgic of the Attitude Era, this could be a good listen.

Wrestling Friends with Flash Morgan Webster Started while Webster was injured, the conversational style of interviews Flash gets is pretty interesting.

Edge & Christian Pod of Awesomeness Edge and Christian have an easy rapport with each other and it leads to a fun podcast with good interviews. Can't really sell it well but if you need to waste one or two hours listening to two friends shoot the poo poo, you could do worse than this.

Jim Cornette Experience Old man yells at cloud show. But also, Old man ran Smoky Mountain and worked JCP/WCW and Mid South. Worth listening to when he talks about those things and not when he talks about literally anything else. If you want to know exactly how tough the driving was in Mid-South during the heyday and how often you slept in your own bed and how much you made and whether it was smart fly to Oklahoma then this is your show.

Jim Cornettes Drive Thru Jim Cornette only covering questions about classic wrestling!

Talk is Jericho Current WWE wrestler and frontman of rock band Fozzy, Chris Jericho interviews a wide range of guests, including current and former wrestlers, musicians, and so on. You can easily skip the first 10 minutes or so where he shills whatever his sponsor of the week is and also the latest Fozzy record. Despite being a WWE wrestler, they don't seem to have much oversight on who he invites or what they talk about, which is a good thing.

Wrestling Soup A podcast that has interviewed the porn actor that hosed Sunny, and gave a book report on the Ryback self-help manifesto. If you like to hear wrestling nerds make fun of other wrestling nerds this may be worth a look.

6:05 Superpodcast A podcast about classic pro wrestling hosted by The Great Brian Last.

Cheap Heat WWE part-time employee and WWE Kissass Peter Rosenberg and his friend Stat Guy Greg go over the week's wrestling events, largely from the fan perspective. Rosenberg's inside access occasionally grants them interviews or some additional info on goings-on, but for the most part, they just talk about the week.

The Masked Man Show Prior to the closure of ESPN's Grantland, longtime wrestling writer David Shoemaker was also on Cheap Heat. Following the creation of The Ringer, and a move out west, Shoemaker started his own podcast. It's pretty much the same kind of thing as Cheap Heat, but without anyone working for WWE.

We Watch Wrestling Three comedians talk about wrestling, are genuinely enthusiastic about it. One is a former WWE writer. They talk mainly about WWE, NJPW and way too much about PWG. Also features the best Vince impression out there. Comes out Wednesdays.

The Attitude Era Podcast Two Brits and an Irish guy recap old WWE PPVs. They're pretty funny.

Music of the Mat Two guys follow the evolution of themes and how they follow the evolution of the character, and stuff like that. If you're looking for a sample, I recommend the Undertaker episode.

Blind Tag A funny podcast featuring bad opinions from someone who is constantly baffled by the WWE.

Open the Voice Gate Getting people mad while talking about Dragon Gate.

Tights and Fights A mainly WWE podcast though Danielle will try to push Lucha Underground and Total Divas on the other two hosts.

Marty and Sarah Love Wrestling Marty and Sarah Love Wrestling on the MLW network is pretty fun and has a refreshingly different format than "wheezing shut-ins talk for 3+ hours". It's basically like Comedy Bang Bang but about wrestling.

Facelock Feministas Anyway, Facelock Feministas is well worth recommending you are interested in UK Wrestling. Both hosts are American but they in the last year became converts to that scene and are pretty much the face of US Progress. Very intelligent and articulate analysis of Pro Wrestling by two underrepresented voices.
https://twitter.com/FacelockFemmes

Something to Wrestle with Bruce Pritchard Something to Wrestle has a ton of information and interesting tidbits from somebody who was in the WWE for years, even though sometimes I get the feeling Prichard is completely full of poo poo. (What Happened When is okay, but you can tell Tony wasn't nearly as involved in decision making that Prichard was.)

Solomonster Sounds Off Apparently, this podcast is just...good?

Virtual Pros A pro wrestling show for "real people", Al & Mike are fans who come from the VHS tape trading era. They love Japanese wrestling merch and indie wrestling road trips, they hate most Internet Wrestling Fans, but they design some pretty sweet t-shirts. Every week, they talk the wrestling world, their own likes and dislikes, and the latest additions to the VRTLPROS Mixtape, an ongoing playlist on YouTube of random matches, weird wrestling ephemera, and YouTube shooters.
Virtual Pros Store:http://vrtlpros.bigcartel.com/

The Rough House Podcast Justin is the host of a major market morning radio show. Christoff is the ex production guy at the same station, who had to abandon his dreams of broadcasting. Together, they tear apart the world of wrestling every week, but usually end up complaining about their lives in incredibly filthy ways.

Though I listent to Pollock and Wai, POST WRESTLING covers a lot of other topics besides current wrestling like AJPW and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, for example.

The Strap A Goon Created Podcast. Feedback is appreciated!

VODCASTS
Sidewalk Slam! Graham Stark and Adam Savidan of sketch comedy troupe LoadingReadyRun talk about WWE narrative and run through PPVs, attempting to be positive.

OSW Review 3 irishmen chronologically critique wrestling storylines or eras, PPV by PPV. Disliked by some for percieved racism and sexism, they nevertheless have high production values, and a legion of fans allowing them to do this full time!

Nobodies Watching Wrestling Drag Queens reviewing wrestling. Questionable wrestling knowledge, high weave knowledge. If you want a sassy look at wrestling where the fashion is as important as the finishes, look no further! It's a duo of Drag Queens and their wrestling-savvy friend ranting about wrestling and it's hilarious!

If you know of any other podcasts out there, let me know and I will include it in this post.

Edit: Others that were not included originally due to user error. Links may have expired over the course of time.

Between the Sheets
Every Monday, Kris Zellner and David Bixenspan go over how a given week in professional wrestling history was covered by the wrestling media, primarily in the "dirt sheet" newsletters. The deepest dive into wrestling history that you can find.

Kliq This with Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver
A podcast about current and past wrestling from Kevin Nash's perspective though they do talk about more than wrestling as well.

The Sessions with Renee Paquette
Join television personality Renee Paquette every week for genuinely fun and casual conversations with wrestlers and celebrities.

Deadlock
DICK THE COCK JOHNSON. It's a shame they don't do modern reviews anymore.

Omega and the Bucks on Cabana's podcast this week

Decent listen. Only scoop was fairly obvious: Said they've tried to break up Bullet Club before, but New Japan won't let them due to merch sales. Similarly, they don't control who's members

I guess that's why there's the Elite sub group and Tama Tonga and friends.

He had a habit of taking his dick out in front of writers, handling it, putting it away and then offering them a handshake. If they wouldn't he'd dramatically proclaim they were big-leaguing him and he was going to tell Stephanie and HHH about their bad attitude.

It's only fair then that the writer reaches into their crotch, go digging for gold and then shake Randy's hand with that hand. They can be some twisted form of eskimo brothers then.

New VOW Flagship is talking about Neville and how Neville's revenue was limited due to lack of merchandise and not getting DVD/Blu-Ray money for appearances, it had me thinking about the salary structure of the WWE. Are the 205 live people the least paid wrestlers on the roster? Do NXT people make more? It's got me curious.

VOW flagship touched on Daniel Bryan’s option and how the wwe tried to bury him throughout his entire career and how their perception wouldn’t change even if he were older. What was interesting was that they mentioned how over he was even when put with Kane, the Wyatt Family and it made me think about how obstinate wwe was with their assessment of Bryan as a B+ player regardless of the results that he brought.

I hope he doesn’t resign with them.
