0:00.0 | This month at post wrestling cafe.com, go Excel and you get live editions of Rewind a raw, |
0:06.3 | rewind a dynamite, and rewind a Smackdown, featuring all the news of the day, your questions |
0:11.1 | and answers, as well as feedback. Post wrestling cafe.com, $6 gets you in the door. |
0:17.2 | And we're off. Welcome everybody to WrestleMania Week at post- Wrestling. I am John Pollock, |
0:24.1 | and we're kicking the week off with me solo, but I'm not going to be solo throughout the week |
0:28.6 | because we are going to have lots of people dropping by. And I thought that this would be an |
0:32.3 | interesting way to start things off. I was rattling my brain for some ideas, and I thought, this is an |
0:38.8 | interesting experiment, and we'll see how it goes, where I'm going to go through the entire |
0:43.5 | history of WrestleMania, one right up until last year's show over two nights in Philadelphia. |
0:50.2 | Now, this is not going to be an extensive match-by-match rundown. Instead, some notable figures, facts attached to each show. |

1:22.1 | But off the top, I want to make mention that we're going to be doing shows every day over the next week as part |
1:29.9 | of this WrestleMania Week coverage. For those that are listening to this, this is on the |
1:33.4 | Post Wrestling Cafe, and that is where a lot of these shows are going to live. Tuesday, I'm going to |
1:39.1 | be joined by Keith Elliott Greenberg, longtime writer, historian. He's just put out a new book covering the whole history |
1:46.2 | of WrestleMania 3. I think it's a chat. A lot of people will find interesting. Wednesday, we |
1:51.2 | have the Pollock and Thurston show along with Dynamite, so that's sort of going to be our coverage |
1:54.8 | for that day. And then everything really gets into gear on Thursday, where we will have live shows |
