My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 511: Remembering Sid

The wrestling world is mourning another loss, this time Sid Vicious, aka Sycho Sid, aka Sid Justice. I had the good fortune of meeting Sid in 1999 and interviewing him on the news while working at WOWL in Florence, Alabama. Here’s the clip.

This week, Chad Smart joins the show to discuss our favorite Sid moments. Please share yours with us, too.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 496: 1991 vs. 2024

My daughter just graduated from high school, so I thought about when I graduated (1991) and where the wrestling world was. This week, I compared and contrasted some of the superstars and then compared them to the stars of today.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 494: Kerry Wins The Gold

Growing up, Kerry Von Erich was my favorite wrestler. For nostalgia purposes, he’s still on my Mount Rushmore, some 30+ years after his death.

This week on the podcast, I chatted with ‘Pondwater’ Dave, also a Von Erich superfan. He was in the crowd the day Kerry beat Ric Flair for the NWA Heavyweight title (May 6, 1984). We chat about that day, wrestling in Texas, the rest of the Von Erichs, and Ric Flair’s Last Match (which Pondwater made the three-count for).

Learn more about Dave and his podcast, Talking Rasslin’ with Pondwater Dave, here.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 493: Wrestling Meet and Greets

Getting to meet a pro wrestler is always a great adventure. At least it has been for me. I’ve been fortunate to meet more than I can remember at times, as I forgot to mention a handful on this week’s podcast. And despite having met some of the all-time greats, there are three who elude my list. Find out who they are on this week’s episode.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 488: WrestleMania in the 90s

WrestleMania is a household word, but this week on the podcast, Chad and I look back to the 90s when the business and the brand took a noticeable dip.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 484: Sting’s Last Match

Sting has been a huge part of pro wrestling for nearly 40 years. On March 3, 2024, he’s wrestling his last match. This week on the podcast, Chad Smart and I look back at some of Sting’s highlights and talk about others who should have had a big sendoff for their career.

A friend of the show, Kevin McCleery, lost everything in a recent house fire. A GoFundMe is set up, but if you’d rather donate a figure or two to his young son, let me know. Click here for the GoFundMe. Thanks!

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 472: Sting’s Last (WWE) Match

Sting will have his last match in March 2024 at AEW Revolution. However, I’m fantasy booking the Stinger’s last match at WrestleMania 40 this week. Let me know what you think of the six opponents I have in mind for the icon.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 468: What’s In a Name

It never fails that a debate ensues when a second or third-generation wrestler hits the ring with a name not associated with their famous relative.

The most recent instance occurred with Brian Pillman, Jr., now going by Lexis King in WWE’s NXT. I share my thoughts on the name and others who have decided to take a different track than their famous father.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 422: Wrestling Year in Review

There was no shortage of news to talk about in the world of wrestling in 2022. From Vince McMahon’s retirement to CM Punk’s drama with AEW to Ric Flair’s Last Match, it was a unique year, to say the least. Instead of the traditional Centy Awards, Chad Smart and I discuss some of the big headlines of 2022 and look ahead to 2023. Be sure to share your thoughts too.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 401: Ric Flair’s Last Match

Ric Flair’s Last Match is coming up this weekend. It’s a three-day celebration of the man we call ‘Nature Boy.’ This week on the podcast, Chad Smart and I talk all about it, as we were both there for Flair’s retirement match at WrestleMania 24. What are your thoughts on The Man getting into the ring one more time?

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 394: Ageism in Wrestling

Ageism is alive and well in pro wrestling. It’s nothing new, really, but something that I’ve noticed a lot more of lately. This week, I share my thoughts on legends returning to the ring. By the way, here’s the clip on TikTok that I’m referring to in this podcast.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 375: The 1992 Royal Rumble

It’s hard to believe that 30 years have passed since the 1992 Royal Rumble. In which Ric Flair was the victor, that match will go down in history as one of the WWE’s greatest Rumble matches. This week, Chad Smart and I break down the match itself, the buildup, and the aftermath.

Bron Breakker. Bray Wyatt. Randy Savage. They’re all second-generation wrestlers but don’t share the same name as their famous fathers. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Chad Smart and I discuss it on this week’s podcast.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 300: Celebrating 1985

We made it to 300 episodes! To celebrate, I figured I’d connect two of my favorite formats for the show, Wrestling with the 80s and Wrestling Under the Influence.

My buddy Chad Smart from the Positive Cynicism Podcasting Network joins me for this look back at the year 1985. I also enjoy a couple of cold ones, appropriately called 1985 by New Belgium Brewing Company.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 295: Wrestling with the 80s

Summertime in the 1980s meant one thing for me as a wrestling fan, The Great American Bash. The first incarnation of this legendary event happened 35 years ago this month (July 6, 1985).

I have fond memories reading about these shows and later renting them on VHS from the local video store weeks after they aired on closed-circuit or pay-per-view television. The biggest thing to come out of the GAB is the first-ever War Games match.

The brand is alive and well today with WWE using it over the last couple of weeks on NXT. It makes me happy to relive the nostalgia. But what do you think about the history and the legacy of the Great American Bash?

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 292: Father Figures

It’s the post-Father’s Day episode of the My 1-2-3 Cents podcast. We’re talking about some of the best father figures in the world of pro wrestling.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 283: Wrestling Under the Influence

Pity Party, table for one. That is how this podcast may sound to some. However, that is not my intent. I had big plans for this week’s show since it falls on 4/20. You can read between the lines on who I wanted as my guest…

That being said, my attempts to get Rob Van Dam on the show turned into another failed experiment. So that got my brain churning and I thought, why not review a beer in my fridge called Mad Scientist Milkshake IPA. It’s from the Experimental Series by Witchita Brewing Company. You can visit their website here.

So this week you’ll hear me kinda rant and complain about the guests who I’d always wanted but never got. I also review the beer and share some thoughts on other aspects of pro wrestling.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 258: Wrestling Under the Influence

Cheers! It’s time for another Wrestling Under the Influence. This month Tom Skull from the Skullbuster Wrestlecast and Tom & Jim’s Top 5 joins me. We drink two different beers, Stone Scorpion Bowl IPA by Stone Brewing Company and Shenangians by Indeed Brewing.

Of course, we center the conversation around Sting and his 1990 nemesis the Black Scorpion. It’s a great conversation as we stroll down memory lane with some good beer.

My 1-2-3 Cents Ep. 257: Wrestling with the 80s

It’s been 30 years since the first Halloween Havoc. WCW came up with the concept and it ended up being a successful formula for the company. Did you know Halloween Havoc had a better rating than Starrcade 6 of the 12 years they were around? One year it was a tie and five times Starrcade rated higher.

This week though, we’re focused on that first year and the build-up to the Thunderdome match between Ric Flair and Sting vs. Terry Funk and the Great Muta.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 235: 20 Minutes of Ranting

Don’t be too worried about the title. I am ranting, but it’s not a full 20 minutes. Basically, I’m fed up with the ‘fake news’ out there concerning wrestling. I share my views on that and more in this week’s episode.


Stride Pro Wrestling has a show Saturday, June 8 at the building in Carterville. It’s Battle Bowl! Learn more here.

You can shop the My 1-2-3 Cents store on Pro Wrestling Tees. Also, take a look here at the Jittery Monkey Podcasting Store. Lots of great merch out there for fans of the shows here. We’ll be at Cape Comic Con this coming weekend too. Learn more here.

Corn Nation’s Five Heart Podcast Episode 43: Reuter’s March to UCF

When I hear or see “scorched earth,” I immediately think of Union General William Tecumseh Sherman’s “March to the Sea” in the Civil War. But after the overtime loss to Northwestern, it was time for Hoss Reuter to go scorched earth.

The only problem is that after six days, even that was tempered a bit. While Hoss believes the end of the Mike Riley era is nigh, his scorched earth approach was quite mild. I’m no historian, but if Sherman would have marched to Savannah like Hoss railed on the coaching staff, the North may have been turned away in Macon.

That being said, we believe a change is in the air. And after talking about the loss to the Wildcats, we discuss the “rumor and innuendo” that surrounds the Husker football program. And what can be done to get the best in-state athletes to play for Big Red, so that the Noah Fant’s of the world rip apart Ohio State while wearing the Scarlet and Cream?

Also we hit up the Facebook page and talk about the Tunnel Walk and playing for pride, if nothing else.

And stick around to the end to find out how to win a FREE box of food from Hello Fresh! Lots going on this week and we do appreciate you listening and sharing the show with the Husker fans in your life.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 93: Hey, Hey It’s Conrad

Conrad Thompson
Conrad Thompson

This week the co-host of both The Ric Flair Show and Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard, Conrad Thompson, joins the podcast. Both shows are on MLW Radio.

The Ric Flair Show has weekly guests ranging from Cody Rhodes to Kurt Angle to Ken Patera and Greg “The Hammer” Valentine. Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard is a weekly stroll down memory lane as Prichard recalls certain storylines during his time in WWE. I love the format of this show in particular.

On My 1-2-3 Cents the Podcast we discuss both shows and how Conrad went from wrestling fan to hanging out with the greatest of all time. We also talk about current events in wrestling and our thoughts on the state of WWE.

I’m also starting a new contest. Go to iTunes, subscribe and leave a rating and a review. Screenshot it and tag me on social media with it. The My 1-2-3 Cents prize vault is full and we need to get things out you!

I recently was asked to start contributing to the new website Breaking Wrestling News.  A trio of fans put the site together in late 2015.  Greg DeMarco, Mike Bessler and Joe Burgett are the founders of the site.

There are several contributors, covering wrestling promotions around the world as well as MMA.  On this week’s podcast, I chat with Greg about his experiences with the site and some of his memories as a wrestling fan.

He has a very interesting take on what will happen at FastLane and eventually Wrestlemania 32.  We also discuss a few of the past week’s big news headlines, including Daniel Bryan’s retirement, his future with the company and Titus O’Neil’s suspension.  Listen closely, as I ask a question for the “Road to Wrestlemania” contest based on Greg’s thoughts for Wrestlemania.  You can answer it on Facebook.

You can follow Breaking Wrestling News on Facebook and Twitter.  Also, check out My 1-2-3 Cents the blog.  Follow us on Twitter and Instagram (@my123cents on both) and subscribe to the YouTube channel.  I posted a new video this past week and plan to do more soon.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 53: WrassleRoos Pro Wrestling Underwear

wrassleroos

Growing up in the 80’s, we had Underoos.  They were dubbed “underwear that’s fun to wear” and included super heroes like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.  As a wrestling fan, I’d always hoped my favorite WWF/E Superstars would be represented, but it never happened.

Fast forward 30 plus years and Jonathan Bowles had a vision: WrassleRoos.  It’s pro wrestling underwear for adults.  But not only can you find briefs in the likeness of legends like “Macho Man” Randy Savage, “Nature Boy” Ric Flair and the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes, you can also choose from a variety of custom made, vintage t-shirts.  Boxer shorts are also available.

The story behind the success of WrassleRoos is truly remarkable.  Listen to this week’s show and find out how Colt Cabana and CM Punk each played a role in putting these unique under garments on the map.

Follow WrassleRoos on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.  Also, be sure to check out My 1-2-3 Cents on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
