How Wrestling Explains the World
Society & Culture
Phil Schneider is a widely respected wrestling historian. Nick Bond is a useful idiot.
And at least once (sometimes as many as twice!) a month, they get together to talk about professional wrestling the way it was meant to be discussed: each picking a match from wrestling history, presumably as a way to work out feelings about their childhood and the neverending creep of time. Or, like, talk about how much fun it is to see people beat each other up.
For this inaugural episode, Phil and Nick break down a BattlARTS tag team match featuring Yuki Ishikawa & Alexander Otsuka vs. Carl Greco & Daisuke Ikeda from April of 1998 (Phil's pick) and WrestleMania I's main event between Mr. T and Hulk Hogan vs. Paul Orndorff and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper (Nick's).
