Uncle Howdy’s In-Ring Debut! Plus, Looking Back on the First TLC Match.


Ben, Khal, Brian, and David kick off the show with some of their favorite memories of the late Sycho Sid Eudy (5:56). Then, they discuss the online discourse about their theme song draft (13:57).

In their weekly Wyatt Sicks check-in, they share their thoughts on Uncle Howdy’s debut match on Raw (17:27).

For the Nostalgia Freakz moment of the day, they revisit the first TLC match at SummerSlam 2000, which featured the Hardy Boyz, Dudley Boyz, and Edge & Christian (29:26).

After the break, they go to the Ringer Wrestling Worldwide hotline for They Said What?! and react to a couple of hot takes from you, including fantasy booking Jon Moxley to take out Bryan Danielson and potentially bringing back traditional Survivor Series matches (43:33).

And finally, they introduce the new Triple-Threat Open Challenge, where Ben, Khal, and Brian each bring a wrestling-related topic to the show. They discuss the following:

  • Whether or not WWE forgot what to do with tag teams (58:57)
  • Whether Bryan Danielson’s AEW win is potentially bigger than YEStleMania (65:28)
  • A list of WWE superstars Ben wants to become world champion (70:58)
