Smacktalk Radio Live - November 22, 2012

We're getting caught up on the week it was in pro wrestling, discussing the fallout from Survivor Series, and Monday Night Raw the night after.  Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns interfering in the SS main event...a good way to introduce these wrestlers?  Will they stop the momentum of Ryback or just be another three names on his list of victims?  To help break it all down, we are joined by Paul Lazenby, a man with an impressive resume which includes being a Pro Wrestler, Commentator, MMA Fighter, Actor and even Stone Cold Steve Austin's movie stunt double, among others.  We're talking CM Punk, Dolph Ziggler, John Cena, AJ and more.  In our 'Local Wrestling Scene', we preview All Star Wrestling's upcoming 'Adam Firestorm Memorial Rumble' show and chat with Vance Nevada regarding Bambi Hall's nomination for PWI's 'Rookie of the Year' award.  This is Smacktalk Radio Live...the best in wrestling talk radio.  Find us on Twitter @SRLradio and in the iTunes store.

Smacktalk Radio Live - November 15, 2012

It's go-home week for the WWE as they head into one of their top four PPV's of the year, Survivor Series, which takes place from the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN.  Not only are we previewing the big event, but we chat with one of the members of 'Team Foley', the current Intercontinental Champion, Kofi Kingston.  We talk with Kofi about his upcoming 5-on-5 Survivor Series elimination match, asking the question, just how well will he get along with his new teammate the Miz this Sunday?  We also ask him about his storied career, his famous feud with Randy Orton in 2009/10, and his memorable moment at the 2012 Royal Rumble. In our 'Tale of the Tape', we discuss the Brad Maddox vs Ryback match that took place this past Monday, and try to find the good in it.  We also debate the return of Jerry 'The King' Lawler...classy? Or classless? Keep up to date with all the latest by adding us on Twitter @SRLradio and subscribing to us in the iTunes store.

Smacktalk Radio Live - November 8, 2012

Joining us tonight to catch up with the week it was in pro wrestling is Mike Knoxxx, host of Perfect Plex Radio and creator of the BDSIR Network.  We, along with Mike, run down the Monday Night Raw from Birmingham, England, discussing a variety of topics.  What is the initial reaction to Brad Maddox's explanation as to why he did what he did at 'Hell in a Cell'?  Doing a complete 180 on the main event of Survivor Series? Would the traditional Survivor Series elimination match have been good enough to sell this PPV? We also get caught up on the business, of the business in our 'P2P Report' and preview the upcoming couple weeks with ECCW and ASW in our 'Local Wrestling Scene'.  Find us in the iTunes store and at facebook.com/smacktalkradio

Smacktalk Radio Live - November 1, 2012

Tonight, we give our thoughts on the WWE "Hell in a Cell" PPV, expressing what we liked and didn't like and also run down the latest from the night after on Monday Night Raw, giving our opinions on the initial setup to Survivor Series.  Has the momentum with Ryback slowed down?  Is there a reason to care about a traditional-style Survivor Series elimination match as the main event for the upcoming PPV?  We're dissecting it from every angle, trying to find the good, and unfortunately finding the ugly.  In our 'Local Wrestling Scene', we chat with our local wrestling insider Corey Basso, giving our thoughts on ECCW's "Halloween Hell".  Did 'HH12' deliver in their new venue at the Sapperton Pensioners Hall?  Gotta listen to find out!  Find us in the iTunes store and on Twitter @SRLradio

Smacktalk Radio Live - October 25, 2012

Three days away from the WWE presenting it's 'Hell in a Cell' PPV and we preview the big event.  Among our predictions, we discuss the latest with the Ryback/CM Punk situation, John Cena being brought into a new 'scandal' involving AJ Lee and Vickie Guerrero, and the battle of heavyweights, Sheamus vs Big Show.  We debate whether this could be the end of Daniel Bryan and Kane's tag team title reign, and just where does Dolph Ziggler fit into this weekend? In our 'Local Wrestling Scene', we continue our two week buildup to ECCW's most entertaining show of the year, 'Halloween Hell'.  Joined by our local wrestling insider Corey Basso, we speak with 'hell veteran, ECCW Hardcore Champion Moondog Manson and also the ECCW Women's Champion, KC Spinelli, getting their thoughts on the huge weekend locally.  Like our show?  Subscribe to us in the iTunes store and leave some feedback letting us know what you think!  @SRLradio on Twitter

Smacktalk Radio Live - October 18, 2012

A content-filled show tonight as we begin by discussing the match made official at the upcoming PPV "Hell in a Cell" which takes place October 28th in Atlanta, GA.  CM Punk vs Ryback.  Is it the right time for Ryback to be thrown into the spotlight? Or is this 'push' being forced as a result of John Cena's injury?  We debate whether it is now a show that is desirable because of who CM Punk is squaring off against.  Other topics we chat about this week are Kofi Kingston, and whether this is his time to shine, and the newly-formed 'Three Man Band'; will they strike the right chord with fans?  In our 'Local Wrestling Scene', we begin two weeks of coverage leading up to ECCW's "Halloween Hell" which takes place October 28, and we start it off by chatting with ECCW talent Sid Sylum, who competes for the ECCW Championship at the show against J_Sin Sullivan.  Finally, we talk with Bernie Robichaud, perhaps better known to Canadians as the character 'Cyrus' from the hit comedy 'Trailer Park Boys' (starts at 59:00 mins).  We talk a little history of the show, and what Bernie is working on these days.  Find us on Twitter @SRLradio and in the iTunes store
