The success of the tag team and then 10-15 minutes on Mabel, Mo and Oscar. How Mabel went onto multiple gimmicks, then his death. Where Mo and Oscar are now. Oscar was stealthily at Wrestlecon 2019. Paid for his auto as I feel he will be a tough one to get. I met Oscar three times 2014, 2015, 2017. He is a very quiet guy. He's one of those guys who doesn't seem to understand he's famous. Maybe has to do with him not having been on TV in over 20-25 years. And maybe because he really wasn't famous to begin with. At the show in 2017 I showed him to his table as he was just walking around the convention room not knowing where to go and whoever brought him to the show hadn't met him yet I guess. I felt bad for him because I feel like without Mo or Mabel at a show he would be a tough sell for autographs or photos because fans would want a complete signed picture or a photo with all three. I met him once in a hotel lobby and he came into our room and the other two times were before the starts of conventions so I can see he's a really nice guy-just one of the more quiet guys you would meet. I'd be interested in a Plain Ride From Hell show. I feel like that was probably the beginning of the end of Curt Hennig's life. He had returned to WWF in a favorable way because he still had IT. And I think even though he was being used to put over guys he probably would have stuck around if Vince McMahon wanted him to but with getting into a fight with Vince's newest toy Curt was out the door. Obviously that didn't lead to his death but I feel if he had stayed with WWE and maybe had more camaraderie and with WWE not being like the WWF of the 1980s or 90s with drug use it would have been a better environment this time.[/quote] If he wasn’t such close friends with Brock he probably keeps his job, but he was basically becoming a mentor to Brock and they were like “We see this turning out very poorly”. Plane Ride from Hell, especially with JR being interviewed, should be very interesting

Depending on how much detail they go into, some people might be in hot water if more people in 2021 hear about some of the allegations from the plane ride from hell. I believe Flair, Goldust and Scott Hall were all accused of sexual harassment by flight attendants and the lawsuit was eventually settled out of court.

This one's gonna be a crazy ride. I think I'm most interested in what Pillman Jr. says on it.

Luna Vachon will be an interesting one. I just remember growing up how different her look was and how she wrestled too. Her voice will always how you really remember her. She could definitely spin a good promo.

definitely keen for the XPW and FMW ones, their two of my favourite defunct promotions, crazy that Nick Gage is big enough to get his own special on national tv

The Steroid trials will have to be a 2 hour one. Anyone know who the narrator will be this year? Also surprised they have Austin on the Pillman episode, but OTOH, you cant really have an ep on him without input from Austin.

XPW will be interesting. It really is a fascinating tale as from 99 to 2000 (and part of 2001) they were not a bad promotion and were very hot in Socal. Hell I'd argue that XPW is what started the SoCal indy boom with its popularity.
Then they decided to try to take over the East Coast and caused bad blood with CZW, 3PW, and ROH by actively trying to steal talent to sabotage shows, then checks started bouncing, then Rob Black started using the porn company more and more to bail XPW out, then he got indicted for his porn violating Obscenity Laws.
It's quite a journey but I'd say for 2 years they legit had a shot

A&E's Biography is also doing a Warrior bio, wonder if Vice will schedule their Warrior ep to air the same week.

I've kind of on and off tried to get into the show and Jericho's kind of just a huge roadblock to it. His voice is too distracting, it constantly feels like he's going to try to sell me steak.
Still, am developing a taste for it for sure and a lot of these sound interesting. If hard to fit into 45 minutes; seems like there'll be two two-parters in the season but feels like Warrior, Smith & Roberts, and the steroid trial all call for it.
