The 80's are over. But before we wave goodbye and give our final thoughts on the decade that started the wrestling boom, we've to watch Hulk Hogan like we've NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE!! That is, his terrible acting as Rip Thomas in the 1989 cinematic non-hit No Holds Barred!! Followed by No Holds Barred: The Match! After that we discuss what we did and didn't like about wrestling of the 1980's and who or what surprised us.

The 80's are coming to a close, and to celebrate WCW and the NWA decided to find out who would be the star of the 90's with a very special edition of Starrcade. We also discuss the year that was 1989 and how underappreciated The Ultimate Warrior was (at least Diarm does anyway)

It's the 1989 installment of the WWF's Thanksgiving Night tradition. This time around we say goodbye to The Brain, discuss cool team names, Bret Hart & Randy Savage being brilliant, Jim Duggan being a dickhead, the difference between W.B. Yeats & Seamus Heaney, and just what ARE Beefcake and Hogan gonna do when it's NO HOLDS BARRED!
