hulkamania

The story behind the new Iron Claw movie starring Zac Effron and Jeremy Allen White. Was the Von Erich wrestling family actually cursed? I understand why some people think so. Five out of six of wrestling star Fritz Von Erich's sons would die prematurely and tragically, many of them dying shortly after the family became the most famous family in all of professional wrestling.

Writer and lifelong pro wrestling fan Zach Vasquez returns to discuss the 1996 Hulk Hogan holiday dud 'Santa with Muscles', executive produced by The Wolf of Wall Street himself, Jordan Belfort. Along with the film, we discuss the fractious history of the WWE, modern challengers to the promotion's hegemonic superiority, and the life and crimes of the man behind Hulkamania, Terry Eugene Bollea.

SHOW NOTES:

• During our discussion, none of us could remember when Sonny Bono died, and were too distracted to google it. In case you're wondering, he died on on January 5, 1998.
• BBD songs discussed include “Poison” and “Do Me”.
• We forget the full name of Ralph Tresvant, the fifth New Edition member, while talking about the group.
• Michael Bivins of BBD also produced and / or managed Another Bad Creation and Boyz II Men. Plus Sudden Impact; all that we ever knew about them was from the “MotownPhilly” video. A guy from Sudden Impact said that he was in two other groups called Too Special and Wyte Gize. 
• Teddy Riley was the producer of “My Prerogative”. Bobby Brown talks to him during the song.
• The bounty hunter with bandages from The Empire Strikes Back is named Dengar.
• Did Brooke Hogan date Paul Wall? No. She recorded a song with him though!
