11 MAY 2025 · HEY NETWORK I DARE YOU TO THROW ME OFF THE AIR! The date is June 2nd, 2000 and ECW is at odds with their network TNN. WWF is about to move to TNN after they were given 100 million dollars. Paul Heyman and ECW aren’t happy. So what is the best thing to do? Do a shoot promo on the air of ECW Hardcore TV and air your grievances. Was this a good idea? Probably not. But, it made for some great television. Also, Kid Kash and The Baldie Grimes do battle, Tony Mamaluke makes his ECW debut, and Rhino defends the ECW TV Title against The Sandman. AND FOR THAT, WE THANK YOU!

5 MAY 2025 · Recorded from Japan, James and Johnny take you to the June 21, 1999 episode of WWF Monday Night Raw. It’s the chaotic go home show before King of the Ring 1999. The Corporate Ministry is falling apart, so much so that The Undertaker and Triple H battle in the main event! While the match is going on The Rock crashes the party. As chaos ensues The Rock is able to put Paul Bearer on a giant Brahma Bull symbol. Much like when The Undertaker Symbolized Stone Cold. Also, HBK is laying down stipulations as commissioner, and Stone Cold brawls the Big Bossman in a wild match that ends with beers and broken ladders. Plus, Val Venis tattoos Prince Albert’s butt and Big Show tries vehicular manslaughter on Hardcore Holly. All this and more as DEADLOCK takes you back to the past.

We are in the middle of the Edge & Kane feud where Edge had kidnapped Paul Bearer. Instead of just hitting on this, we revisit the November 12th - December 10th editions of SmackDown to get the full scope of the Edge, Kane, Paul Bearer saga. It’s a deep dive like never before. Also, after WWE Survivor Series 2010, there is going to be a new King of The Ring Tournament taking place on the next episode of WWE Monday Night RAW. There are qualifying matches for the tournament including Alberto Del Rio vs Big Show, MVP vs Drew McIntyre, and Rey Mysterio vs Cody Rhodes.

4 MAR 2025 · One of the best episodes of ECW Hardcore TV took place on June 6th, 1997! ECW Wrestlepalooza 1997 just happened and we are looking at 3 matches from that show. First, Tommy Dreamer and Raven have their final battle as Raven is about to head to WCW! This match was significant as Tommy had never beat Raven in a match. After the match was over Jerry Lawler invaded, alongside RVD and Sabu, and they beat up everyone from the locker room until Taz came out. Taz then challenged Sabu to a match and it’s going to happen right now. Following that match, Shane Douglas got on the microphone and a 3 minute challenge match was going to happen. Taz had 3 minutes to defeat Shane Douglas and if he did so, he would become the new ECW TV Champion. This show flowed seamlessly and it’s probably one of the greatest episodes of ECW Hardcore TV ever produced! Plus, the boys go to WWE 2K25 Creator Fest and play the game early!
