My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 518: The Dungeon of Doom

Was the Dungeon of Doom the greatest faction in wrestling? Of course not, but the group has its place in history, and this week, I’m showing some love to the Master, the Task Master, Shark, Zodiak, Meng, Kamala, and other members.

Speaking of Kamala, he was my guest on Episode 30 of the podcast way back in 2015. Check it out here.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 515: Mr. McMahon Thoughts

These days, Vince McMahon may be the most polarizing figure in professional wrestling. The newly released docuseries Mr. McMahon further complicates the issue.

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.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 509: SummerSlam 1990

SummerSlam 1990 is one of my favorite events under that brand. Nostalgia is always welcome. Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, Rick Rude, Kerry Von Erich—they’re all big players at this event. I rebooked parts of the show and tried WWE Prime.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 505: The Brawl To End It All

In July 1984, the WWF and MTV teamed up for their first-ever wrestling special, The Brawl to End It All. It was unique because the only match to air on TV that night was the women’s championship match between The Fabulous Moolah and Wendi Richter.

Chad Smart joined the show to discuss the event and that era of wrestling as we were on the cusp of WrestleMania, a worldwide phenomenon.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 499: Muppet Mania

The Muppets have always been a big part of my life. It was a love for the Muppets that came long before wrestling. However, the two passions intersected on my seventh birthday. That story is the subject of this week’s podcast.

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 487: WrestleMania Returns

WrestleMania season is my favorite time of year. This week on the podcast, I’m talking about a few of my favorite WrestleMania returns after a long hiatus from the event. Some Superstars in the conversation include ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper, and Ricky ‘The Dragon’ Steamboat.

The U.S. Express, Barry Windham, and Mike Rotundo have been announced for the 2024 WWE Hall of Fame. For one, I am excited to hear this announcement. I share a few memories of the team and the men behind them in a short podcast version.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 479: No Hulkamania

For 40 years now, Hulkamania has been running wild. Hulk Hogan won the WWF Championship on January 23, 1984. But what if Hulk Hogan never existed?

This week on the podcast, Kevin shares six wrestlers he thinks could have been the face of the WWF in the mid-80s. Chad critiques the list. It’s big fun.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 477: Wrestling Under the Influence

The Honky Tonk Man remains one of my all-time favorites. I’ve even had the great pleasure of meeting him a couple of times. This week, in honor of Elvis’ birthday, I’m drinking a beer called Fat Elvis by 4 Hands Brewing Company and watching one of my favorite HTM matches against ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage, from the October 1987 Saturday Night’s Main Event.

By the way, you can check out the HTM podcast interview right here.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 469: Wish List

I’ve been fortunate enough to have attended many live wrestling shows since 1984. Seeing Superstars like Ric Flair, John Cena, Hulk Hogan, and many more has been amazing.

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 458: Remembering Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt

The wrestling world is reeling after two greats died this past week. On Wednesday, WWE Hall of Famer Terry Funk died at 79. Then, just a day later, fans were rocked by the sudden death of Bray Wyatt. He was just 36 years old.

This week, Chad Smart and I pay tribute to both men and share memories of each.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 457: Wrestling With Addiction

Addiction is a problem that plagues the world of professional wrestling. We’ve seen lives destroyed both in and out of the ring. Recently, WWE Hall of Famer Sunny was in the news after being involved in a fatal DUI crash last year. The jokes and the memes that followed were horrible, in my opinion, and I’m ranting about it this week.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 454: IC Title History

The Intercontinental Championship has a long and rich history in WWE. Very soon, that history could be rewritten as current IC Champion Gunther is on the verge of breaking the Honky Tonk Man’s record as the longest-reigning champ. It’s a record that was set 35 years ago. This week, I discuss the possibility of that happening and why I don’t think that’s a good idea.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 449: Tag Team Wrestling

I love tag team wrestling. Back in the 80s, we were lucky to have so many amazing teams. Even today, there’s a resurgence of tag teams. So, after finding a meme, I got inspired to do an episode on tag team wrestling, with listeners having me choose between two teams.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 445: Wrestling Under the Influence

At one time, the bear hug was a great submission move used in professional wrestling. Today, I look at the hold and pair it up with a beer called Beer Hug by Goose Island Brewing. What are your thoughts on this seemingly forgotten hold?

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 444: Remembering ‘Superstar’ Billy Graham

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 442: Wrestling With Royalty

Over the weekend, the world watched as King Charles was officially coronated. That move got me thinking about all the kings who have come through the world of professional wrestling. I talk about a few of my favorites and share a now-10-year-old interview that I did with WWE Hall of Famer Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 438: Going Viral

Perhaps the title of this week’s show is a bit cocky, but it has been an insane week regarding my story about getting kicked out of WrestleMania. And yes, I was kicked out. But there’s more to the story; I share that and all the media attention my TikTok has received. This should be the saga’s final chapter, much to the delight of most people who know me.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 436: WrestleMania IV Recall

It’s hard to believe, but 35 years ago today, WrestleMania IV went down. This show, panned by many, is unique. It’s the first WrestleMania to feature a tournament. It’s the first Mania that Hulk Hogan didn’t wrestle in the main event and was the first Mania for many Superstars, including Ted DiBiase, Rick Rude, and The Ultimate Warrior.

This week on the podcast, I stroll down memory lane with my take on WrestleMania IV and a look ahead to this year’s WrestleMania, which is just a few days away.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 431: Hail To The Chief

It’s Presidents Day, and what better way to celebrate than with a look at authority figures in pro wrestling? From Jack Tunney to Adam Pearce, plenty of men and women have been running the show at various times. Even as I type this, I’m reminded of some names I didn’t mention on this week’s podcast; sorry about that.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 429: The Main Event

The Main Event (1988) is one of the most incredible nights in the history of professional wrestling. I was a sophomore in high school and couldn’t wait to watch wrestling in prime time. We were getting a rematch from WrestleMania III for free. What more could a fan ask for? It turns out it was a night that set the wheels in motion for the next 14 months or more.

Crush has a unique history during his years in WWE. He may be the only Superstar to wrestle under the same name but have multiple gimmicks while doing it.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 417: Survivor Series Nostalgia

Survivor Series was one of my favorite wrestling events in the early days. As a teen, I loved watching the Thanksgiving night (and later Thanksgiving eve) tradition unfold. However, I don’t think everyone feels the same about the event. So this week, it’s a stroll down memory lane and sharing my love of this nostalgic event.

And since it’s episode 417, we’re just three weeks away from episode 420, and I’m still trying to convince Rob Van Dam to join me on the podcast. Please help spread the word.

Hellfire and brimstones, it’s been 25 years since Kane made his WWE debut. This week, Greg Mehocko and Chad Smart from the Power Half Hour joined me to discuss that night in St. Louis. The three of us were there for this show (In Your House: Badd Blood).

In this episode, we discuss Kane and his impact, along with the first Hell in a Cell match and the untimely passing of the legendary Brian Pillman.

Music is a massive part of the pro wrestling experience. Some 35 years ago, the WWF released the Piledriver: The Wrestling Album II.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 405: Wrestling Under the Influence

The Hollywood Blondes are among the most iconic teams from the early 90s. But Brian Pillman and Steve Austin aren’t the first duos to use the name. I talk about that while trying Tea House: Morning Ceremony (a sour blonde ale) by Ebb and Flow Ferminations in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 391: Breaking Up

They say that breaking up is hard to do. And I agree with who they are. Tyler ‘Heath’ Hatton and I have been friends for over a decade and won the Stride Pro Wrestling tag team titles back in 2019.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 386: The Power of Nostalgia

I have always maintained that nostalgia is a powerful drug. That was very evident during WrestleMania weekend, as fans were treated to not one but two nights of ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin doing what he does best. This week, Chad Smart and I talk about that, and the role nostalgia plays in modern-day wrestling.

Andre the Giant was one of the all-time greats in pro wrestling. His career kind of halted in 1990, and he never received the send-off that I, as a fan, would have liked to have seen.

So this week, I’m rebooking Andre’s final two years in wrestling and doing it with a Yuengling Hershey’s Chocolate Porter by my side. Special thanks to Tom Harness for the beer.

He and I enjoy the Unfiltered Wheat American Classic by Boulevard Brewing Company. We pair this beer with the ‘American Dream’ Dusty Rhodes and his son, the ‘American Nightmare’ Cody Rhodes.

Stride returns on Saturday, Feb. 1 at Central Junior High School in West Frankfort. This is a fundraiser for the school’s PTA. Check out Stride’s website for more details.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 266: Wrestling with the 80s

Oh, the 80s. What a magical decade. The rise of pro wrestling started then and the world was introduced to WWF Superstars they could hold in their hand. The LJN collection is by far my favorite. So this week, my guest co-host Brian Juvers and I dig deep into the line and share our favorite memories of these figures.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 261: Wrestling Under the Influence

As a fan who grew up watching pro wrestling in the 80s, one of my favorite pay-per-view events of all-time is the Survivor Series. The original concept has long been scrapped but for the first several years of the event, it was hard to beat.

In 1990 a twist was added. I’m not talking about the Ultimate Survivors match at the end of the night. I’m also not referring to the debut of the Undertaker. Instead, something else that night left a huge impression… the Gobbledy Gooker.

So that’s the subject of this month’s Wrestling Under the Influence. I review that awesomely bad moment in time and pair it with Leinenkugel’s Cranberry-Ginger Shandy.

The 2nd annual Stride Pro Wrestling/My 1-2-3 Cents Pro Wrestling Action Figure Toy Drive is underway now. If you donate $5 or a new wrestling action figure you will be entered into a drawing for an autographed Four Horsemen poster. If you’re not in the area, you can PayPal me kevinhunsperger@gmail.com. You’ll receive one entry for every $5 donated. I will then use that money to buy figures from Five Below.

Stride Pro Wrestling returns on Saturday, Dec. 7 with the former stars of All American Pro Wrestling for a benefit show for former wrestler Dan ‘Curly’ Summers. It’s at Black Diamond Harley Davidson in Marion and every cent raised that night goes to Curly, who is facing some serious health issues right now.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 256: Buried Alive

In keeping with the Halloween theme for the month of October, I decided to have a chat with current Stride Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Champion Red Daniels. Nearly two years ago he was involved in the company’s first (and only) Buried Alive match.

To our knowledge, WWE is the only company to do Buried Alive. There have been five such matches, dating back to 1996. If we’re incorrect in that claim, please let me know.

Red talks about the idea behind the match, the execution of it and the aftermath. It’s a great conversation. Be sure to share it with your friends!

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 253: Wrestling with the 80s

When it comes to great wrestling families, I put the Von Erichs near the top of the list. I grew up in the 80s when Von Erich Mania was running wild. So did my guest co-host this week, Travis Yates (@thetravisyates on Twitter).

We stroll down memory lane and share our thoughts on this iconic family and throw in a few ‘what if’ style scenarios. It’s a great conversation and tribute to one of our all-time favorite families in wrestling.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 251: What If…Vince Retired?

For nearly 40 years Vincent Kennedy McMahon has been the driving force behind the WWE. Before that, of course, it was the World Wrestling Federation. In recent years though, McMahon has been criticized for his decisions related to the product. So this week we explore ‘What If… Vince Retired?’

My co-host for this month’s installment is Stride Pro Wrestling General Manager Sam Hunter. He’s a lifelong fan of pro wrestling and we share our opinions on today’s product and what we think would happen if Vince McMahon walked away from the company today.

Stride Pro Wrestling is in action this Saturday night (Sept. 14) for a fundraiser called Cashing In. It’s a fundraiser for the YouthBuild program. Get more information here.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 230: Brett ‘the Hipman’ Hop

Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart is one of the most iconic pro wrestlers in the history of the business. He was recently immortalized again in the WWE Hall of Fame with his partner Jim “The Anvil” Neidhart.

This week on the podcast, my co-host Roger Matheus and I review a beer made in Hart’s honor. It’s called Brett ‘The Hipman’ Hop. Against the Grain Brewery & Smokehouse in Louisville, Kentucky makes this beer. They sent me a bottle to try just for the show.

It’s a Christmas miracle. Continuing the @JitteryMonkey holiday crossover event, @kevinhunsperger joins @chadsmart to continue the Positive Cynicism month of nostalgia to discuss how and why they’re fans of professional wrestling. Starting with their earliest memories of wrestling and going through their thoughts on the current state of wrestling, Kevin and Chad touch on favorite moments from the last thirty years as well as things they would like to see change. Along the way the discussion delves into a meeting of the Becky Lynch mutual appreciation society.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 208: That Didn’t Age Well

Piper vs. Adonis

I’m kicking off a new feature on My 1-2-3 Cents the podcast. That Didn’t Age Well will focus on a storyline or character from pro wrestling’s past and explore why it wouldn’t work today. First up is the feud between “Rowdy” Roddy Piper and “Adorable” Adrian Adonis.

Please don’t interpret this as a way to bash the past. Chad Smart from Positive Cynicism joins me for the show. We are simply looking at the storyline from 1986 and how fans reacted to it back then. We’re both fans of Hot Rod so there’s nothing negative in what we say.

It’s almost Christmas. Check out the latest design in the My 1-2-3 Cents store on Pro Wrestling Tees. Celebrate a Centmas Vacation!

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 196: Wrestling Under the Influence ‘Rebel’

Oh Hell Yeah

When Nichole Pate was 14 years old she had no idea what a rebel she’d turn out to be. She simply went to school on a Monday morning wearing an Austin 3:16 t-shirt in 1998. She was sent home as a result. What happened next is pretty awesome.

Nichole and I have a Rebel IPA by Sam Adams as she shares her story. Check out the podcast to find out more… And be sure to visit the @my123cents on Instagram for more pics.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 191: Superfan Goldust

Remember the name…

Goldust… one of my all-time favorite ‘gimmick’ wrestlers. When he debuted in 1995 in the WWE he had the world talking. Gone were the cowboy boots, hat and jeans Dustin Rhodes had once worn to the ring. Goldust changed the game. He was ahead of his time.

Fast forward 23 years later and not only is Goldust still in the ring and kicking ass, but we’re still talking about this iconic Superstar. He is the subject of this week’s Superfan episode. Dalton Anthony from Pro Wrestling Unscripted and I chat about Goldust and his legacy in the business.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 185: Superfan “Macho Man” Randy Savage

“Cream of the crop”

“Macho Man” Randy Savage is one of the all-time greats in the world of professional wrestling. I have fond memories of Savage during his run in the WWF and the build-up to him winning the championship 30 years ago.

This week on the podcast, it’s another Superfan edition. Lane Austin, Stride Pro Wrestling referee and Cape Championship Wrestling general manager, is a “Macho Man” Superfan. So I asked him about his fandom of Savage and some of his favorite memories. We chatted prior to a recent Stride Pro Wrestling event in Christopher, Illinois.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 175: Wrestling Under the Influence ‘Death by Coconut’

Wrestling Under the Influence

When I was in college I dreamed of attending WrestleMania X and having a beer. I picked ten specifically because that was the year I turned 21. So wrestling and beer have been a part of me for decades now. They’re a great tag team and now I’m finally kicking off a new segment on the My 1-2-3 Cents podcast.

Wrestling Under the Influence (name credit to Dennis Wyatt) will include a conversation between me and a fellow wrestling fan. We’ll share a beer and our memories on a point in wrestling that we tie into the beverage selected. On this first installment, it is Death by Coconut by Oskar Blues Brewery. Since coconut is in the name, I had to dedicate the beer to ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper and ‘Superfly’ Jimmy Snuka.

My fellow Craftbeerican and beginner pro wrestling fan, Tom Harness joins me for this conversation. We review the beer and talk about one of the most memorable wrestling angles from the 1980s.

I’m also a sponsored athlete (stop laughing) for COLLARxELBOW brand. Shop online and use the promo code MY123CENTS and you’ll save 10%.

My 1-2-3 Cents Episode 151: 6 Cents Favorite Kane Moments

Hellfire & brimstone it’s Kane!

It’s hard to believe, but the character Kane has officially been around for 20 years. The Big Red Machine debuted on October 5, 1997. Ironically (or maybe not) Chad and I were in attendance that night at the Kiel Center in St. Louis. We wouldn’t meet for another six and a half years though.

By Barry Karafa

So for this week’s episode, we are sharing our ‘6 Cents’ on the career of Kane and our top six memories of the former WWE Champion.  We also share some of our listeners’ thoughts of Kane, including the photo to your left of a little guy named Rollins. His dad, Barry Kafara with Cape Championship Wrestling, shared it with us and talked about Kane’s longevity as a character.

It’s hard to argue Kane is one of the all-time great characters (or gimmicks) in wrestling. Few Superstars have the staying power Kane did. Undertaker, Goldust and Triple H may be the only ones, at least off the top of my head.

On a different note, Stride Pro Wrestling returns to the Illinois Star Centre Mall on Saturday, Oct. 14. Come in a Halloween costume and celebrate with us. Bell time is 6:30 p.m. The Stride Championship is up for grabs in a best two-out-of-three falls match between Roger Matheus and Jay Spade.
