Episodes

  1. Taterville, Action Figures and Memory Loss

    Joe and Andy take a broad look at episodes 23 and 24 of Powerrr, while dealing with heavy topics such as Nick Aldis action figures, Sazeracs, Taterville, boredom, and how to win a wrestling match against Tyrus.

  2. The Powerrr is back on!

    The Deans of NWA Podcasting are back to review the National Wrestling Alliance's first pay-per-view event in more than a year, Back for the Attack, and they take a look at the episode 22 of NWA Powerrr. Other topics of discussion include: The Nick Aldis Windsor knot, how to escape a Full Nelson,...

  3. The NWA is back and so are we!

    The National Wrestling Alliance is gearing up for their first pay-per-view event in more than a year, and NWA Powerrr is allegedly on the horizon. We preview the upcoming show and wildly speculate on match-ups.

  4. Hits and Misses

    What were the best moments in the National Wrestling Alliance in 2020? What were the worst? In a year in which a worldwide pandemic managed to ruin just about everything, there were still some bright spots in the NWA. In our final episode of 2020, we try to separate the wheat from the chaff and...

  5. Making Ripples, Errr, Waves...

    The National Wrestling Alliance launches a new show, Shockwave, but how does it measure up to Powerrr? Also, the NWA loses another key member, and future production has halted again as Covid-19 ravages California. In the meantime, we mark out over an appearance of one of our favorite wrestlers on…

  6. Life Support

    The NWA's light continues to fade away as more wrestlers announce departures from the organization. On the one-year anniversary of our show, we struggle to find anything worth talking about, but there's always Thunder Rosa -- and video games.

  7. "Hang in There"

    We take a look at recent episodes of Primetime Live, including a battle between Zicky Dice and Pope for the TV Championship. Meanwhile, more key NWA talent has left the organization, but president Billy Corgan tells fans to "hang in there," because Powerrr could be back soon.

  8. Catching Four Minutes of Heat

    Trevor Murdoch brings home the NWA’s national title, we review two episodes of the United Wrestling Network’s Primetime Live, and the NWA sends fans a survey, but what does it mean for the future of the organization? We try to figure it out.

  9. Into the Primetime Live Fire

    On this episode we cover Thunder Rosa's recent matches, remember Road Warrior Animal, and we take a look at hits and misses from the first two episodes of the United Wrestling Network's Primetime Live, featuring matches with the NWA's Nick Aldis, Thunder Rosa, Eli Drake, and Kamille. Other…

  10. Back from the Dead

    There have been stirrings in the National Wrestling Alliance recently, so we shocked the podcast back to life for some surly palaver on a wide range of topics including: How AEW is looking more like the NWA these days; a new NWA pay-per-view option; Nick Aldis the soccer dad; the apotheosis of...

  11. Is This the End?

    The #SpeakingOut movement rocked professional wrestling last week, leading to serious allegations against many involved in the sport. One report aimed at NWA vice president Dave Lagana, has had a chilling effect on the organization. With Lagana out, the NWA has ceased production of new content…

    more
  12. The Human Condition

    We take a look at the first painful episodes of the NWA's Carnyland series; NXT puts on a clinic with their recent "pit fight" battle; and we wonder if Elon Musk could save professional wrestling.

  13. Is this Carnyland?

    Joe and Andy ponder what WPC's enigmatic "Carnyland" might be, while rambling on a variety of topics including weird merch, ineffective pile drivers, the slow-motion belly-to-belly suplex, the future of the NWA, Tasha Steelz, AEW and more.

  14. The Dark Side of the Podcast

    Joe and Andy ponder the tough questions: Will Kamille end us all? Do wrestlers have a "safe word?" How did Marty Scurll make it sound like he was breaking Nick Aldis' fingers? Why would anyone want to wrestle New Jack? Did John Stossel try to ruin our childhood? How far can Marko Stunt be thrown…

    more
  15. Digging Up Classic Wrestling Gold

    We join the WWE Network to mine for classic NWA / Mid-Atlantic / WCW content that warped our childhood. The irony isn't lost on us! Also in this episode, we riff a bit on Wrestlemania 36, Starrcade, our favorite moment from Monday Nitro, and more.

  16. The Junk Drawer Show

    Joe and Andy ramble about how COVID-19 might affect wrestling, and take a "where are they now" look back at participants in the NWA 70 pay-per-view. We also share thoughts on the Vice TV series "The Dark Side of the Ring," and we search for "lost promos" on YouTube. Links discussed in this…

    Joe and Andy take a look back at the second episode of Circle Squared, preview match-ups announced for the Crockett Cup, and offer up some wrestling-related viewing suggestions for passing the time during the COVID-19 crisis.

  18. Wrestling in the Time of Coronavirus

    Joe and Andy ponder the effects of Coronavirus on the Crockett Cup, Tim Storm's beef with Jax Dane, Colt Cabana's new contract with AEW, and whether or not the impact of The Bouncers' Brian Milonas registered on the Richter Scale after James Storm power-bombed him off the turnbuckle in the most...

  19. The NWA Goes Dark

    Joe and Andy discuss darker themes rising in NWA Powerrr, including Tim Storm's struggles with a foe from the past. The watches come off when Nick and Marty have words at a taping, Pope lets the good times roll, and the ladies division erupts into chaos. We also have clips from the NWA's press...

  21. The Four-Hour Free Enterprise Freak-Out

    Joe shoots on his trip to Ring of Honor's "Free Enterprise" event in Baltimore, while Andy struggles to watch an episode of AEW Dark. In the NWA, we get down with the thiccness of Melina's "Final Cut" finisher, while wishing we were boozing it up with The Bouncers.

  22. We're Broken!

    Joe and Andy shoot on theme songs, Free Enterprise, whole-grain high-fiber breakfast foods, the return of Jocephus, Fake Mama Storm, and Herman Munster on steroids, as they break down the most recent episode of NWA Powerrr, "Pride vs. Thunder."

  25. Right Back to Flavortown

    Joe and Andy shoot on Twitter heat, Ring of Honor and the Nick Aldis invasion, missed tackles, "broke-ass Guy Fieri," Cracker Barrel pancakes, and why Eli Drake is the man to beat in 2020. Be sure to catch up with us on Twitter and Instagram @backintothefire, or write to us at...

We…

    Joe and Andy shoot on Kamille's night off (don't worry, she's still getting paid), the proper way to wear a towel, green mist, cooking with James Storm, and the resurrection of the Rock 'n' Roll Express.
