The Purple Stuff podcast on DinosaurDracula.com is a fun one. Not extremely prolific, but every once in a while they drop a new episode and it always gives me a nice, warm, cozy feeling.

These were my firsts: LJN: George Steele, Hulk Hogan, Brutus Beefcake and Hillbilly Jim were the only ones that I owned for a large portion of my childhood. Steele I had for as long as I can remember and was likely a hand-me-down from my brother or uncle. In the mid 90s when Jakk's came out with the...

I had a bunch of wrestling figures that my brothers and I got from somewhere. My older brother's kids play with them these days. They're knock offs though - they obviously weren't licenced by WWE. The figures were all replicas of classic 80s wrestlers like Savage, Jake the Snake, Million Dollar Man...

I had a bunch of wrestling action figures as a kid from the late 80's early 90's just don't really remember many outstanding specifics. The wrestling related toy I remember most from my youth would be a Macho Man and an Ultimate Warrior wrestling buddy pillows that I used to throw around and have m...

I guess The Revival asked for their release. If that's the case I would assume that they will sign with AEW soon depending on how WWE reacts. We may get another Neveille-esque situation.

No bites so far, so I'll ask a follow up question. If you didn't play with wrestling figures as a kid, why not? Also, if age was a factor, what time in your life did all you guys and gals get into wrestling? I know we probably went over this years ago but refresh my memory.

From the old big rubber LJNs from the 80s, to the statuesque small but very colorful plastic Hasbros from the early 90s, to the Jakk's Pacific Bone crunching action figures and the later hard plastic larger ones that were also made by Jakk's. What were your favorites and share some memories of good ...

WALTER debuted after the main event and stood face to face with Pete Dunne!

Almost guaranteed he will be the one to end Dune's reign.

There have been vague reports that some WWE wrestlers are unhappy with their role in the company and could potentially sign with AEW. Some names that have been mentioned are Zack Ryder, Tye Dillinger, Tyler Breeze and Dolph Ziggler. Aside from these guys (which the jump remains to be clarified), whi...

Who will he surpass with his current reign? He's just broken into the top 30 longest combined reigns and as of today (January 8th) he is at 120 days. These are the next few combined reigns that are higher: Eddie: 133 (Will definitely surpass) Edge: 139 (Will definitely equal because his next defense...

Kenny Omega is rumored to be leaving NJPW. It may have something to do with NJPW not wanting to have a talent exchange with Cody and the Buck's new promotion All Elite Wrestling. So where do you think Omega will go if he leaves? AEW or WWE?

KUSHIDA has left NJPW and is WWE bound. Any thoughts? Do you guys think he'll go to NXT or 205?

Every Championship changed hands. Great event overall. Very excited to see what happens with AEW.

This one really hit me hard. He was essentially the voice of my childhood.

Pretty excited for this. Who is watching and who isn't? If so, which matches are you most looking forward to?

If not, are you a stupid idiot who hates wrestling and yourself?

Here's my current top 15. This is going to be hard to rank them but I'll try to put them in order in typical countdown fashion. Mind you this is current and isn't only based on their in ring work but also a bit by the way that they are booked right now. In ring work is still more important to me. Ex...

Styles, Rollins or McIntyre for the men's and Becky or Charlotte for the women's.

Also a fantastic match but I wouldn't personally call it the best match of the night, let alone year.

Easily the best main roster match of 2018 and likely the best match that Bryan has had in WWE. He's had tons of great matches but this one was on another level. He has that fire that we haven't seen since his pre-WWE days. 5 star classic, both guys absolutely killed it. I was on the edge of my seat ...

I'd be interested to know who everyone's overall favourites in the business are at the moment. Not just in WWE. I'd be particularly interested to see how many of those picked would be in WWE and how many would be working elsewhere. If I was to draw up a list of favourites (which would be fairly dif...
