WWE Heat (May 30, 2008)

I’ve got the day off and wanted to watch some wrestling I didn’t need to think about at all so I figured, “Why not watch a random episode of Heat?” This one is the final episode of Heat so it seemed like as good an episode as any to check out. I mean I’ve seen the first one, I might as well see how it ends.

WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event (August 2, 2008)

When I was a kid Saturday Night’s Main Event was kind of a big deal since most of the televised wrestling matches were King Kong Bundy or Ric Rude or whoever squashing the fuck out of S.D. Jones or some other job guy. If you wanted to see guys who could win taking on other guys who could win you had to order PPVs…or tune in to NBC a couple times a year. It was a decent concept, but it stopped being a thing in ’92.

In 2006 the WWE and NBC brought it back. It ran for a couple years before being replaced by Tribute for the Troops. This is, to date, the final Saturday Night’s Main Event.
