Music of the Mat Remix: Gimmick Names 1:44:51

10d ago1:44:51

1:44:51

Most wrestlers do not use their real names; instead, they use a gimmick name which better fits their character or just works better for wrestling. Gimmick names are not just part of wrestling, they're used in many other facets of entertainment as well.

2M ago1:47:23

1:47:23

One of the ways to win a pro wrestling match is to go for the cover, or pin your opponent's shoulders to the mat for three seconds.

Music of the Mat Remix: You Still Got It (8th Anniversary Show) 2:06:52

2M ago2:06:52

2:06:52

"You still got it!" is a popular, albeit patronizing chant directed at older pro wrestlers who can still put on a good performance. Well, this show is turning eight years old, an elderly age in podcasting years, so maybe it's time to get that chant going. On this episode, Andrew reunites with show co-founder Chris Maffei for an anniversary show ded…

Music of the Mat Remix: Hate and Heat 1:59:31

4M ago1:59:31

1:59:31

Pro wrestling thrives on hatred. Two people wanting to beat each other up is the lifeblood of this crazy sport, and there doesn't seem to be enough of it nowadays.

1:30:08

Some of the greatest wrestling matches of all time have also been some of the longest.
