Alan4L’s ProWres Paradise: “What’s on the Telly?” Flair vs. Magnum and Vader vs. Steamboat main events eight years apart (166 min.)

Mon, 29 Jun 2026 03:59:25 +0000

SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

SHOW SUMMARY: In our latest episode of Alan4L’s ProWres Paradise, PWTorch columnist Alan4L is joined by Conor Keary for the June edition of “What’s on the Telly?” In this monthly series, Alan and his guest will each pick an episode of wrestling TV from that month in the past and break it down. This time around it’s a double dose of NWA/WCW as we go to 1985 and 1993 for two shows which exemplify just how much a promotion can change in eight years. That said, the shows had some similarities in structure. Both featured an array of showcase matches, although with very different crews of talent (The Wrecking Crew of ’93 don’t quite measure up to the Minnesota Wrecking Crew of ’85), and both had big name competitive main events. For NWA on TBS, Magnum TA put $1,000 on the line to get “Nature Boy” Ric Flair in the ring, and on WCW Power Hour, Ricky Steamboat was the lucky recipient of a shot at Big Van Vader’s title in a “Computerised Contender Challenge.” Alan and Conor compare and contrast, and give you their thoughts on all the stars (and non-stars) that popped up. So if you need to get in from the heat, put that fan on, cool down, and check out what’s on the telly with us!

Fri, 26 Jun 2026 06:00:54 +0000

SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

SHOW SUMMARY: In this week’s The Fix Mailbag with PWTorch VIP analyst Todd Martin and host PWTorch editor Wade Keller, they answer emails from VIP members on the following topics:

What happened to Trevor Lee’s career?
Thoughts on the DX imitating The Nation and appearing in blackface
A discussion on babyface vs. babyface match-ups, including what Paul Boesch said about it decades ago, and whether some Royal Rumble examples from the mid-1990s show it can work well?
An extended discussion whether turning Roman Reigns heel to set up heel-face feuds with Jacob Fatu and Oba Femi is better than Reigns facing Oba some day in a face vs. face situation?
Is Oba Femi more of a special attraction than a centerpiece star and will that make it difficult to make him a long-term champion? Is he more like Undertaker or Andre the Giant?
Did the Knicks fleece the Timberwolves in the Karl-Anthony Towns feud?
Thoughts on Mabel’s career and his King of the Ring win
Can Solo Sikoa make an effective babyface as he’s shown dry wit and sarcasm that he could use against heels?
What are the pros and cons of “striking the while the iron is hot” with Oba Femi becoming champion?
Some World Cup talk
What are Todd’s top five Survivor Series events in the pre-Attitude Era time period?
Todd’s thoughts on the outlook for the Washington Wizards
Thoughts on LaMelo Ball being traded to the Timberwolves
Is it becoming harder to get wrestlers over via in-ring work because fans are reacting more to ring entrances and promos?
Thoughts on false, exaggerated reports on UFC viewership for the White House event
Could wrestlers who are have been labeled as “marks” for the business learn from wrestlers who didn’t grow up as fans because of how they treat their careers as a business and not an art form?
