THE AMERICAN KORAKUEN HALL IS GOING TO DIE AND GABE IS GOING TO BE THE LAST ONE IN ITS CARCASS! Was this show enjoyable? Who is to say. A show that makes you question reality at times. As if you have stepped into an alternate dimension where wrestling is a SPORT and Ahtu isn't the sexiest man in the building. This is...A Tribute to The Arena.

WE ARE BACK AND WE ARE BRINGING BACKUP! Bucky and Sam are joined by Phil Schneider, of fame. We talk about the one-and-only EVOLVE 9. The show where Gabe embraces his love of the ABC Family teen dramas of the time. Also, orange tights. LISTEN TO OUR THOUGHTS ON POSSIBLY BUT ALSO POSSIBLY NOT THE BEST/WORST EVOLVE SHOW YET! WHAT TO READ:

The origin story. The event the gave birth to a promotion (a promotion that was left to pull up its bootstraps after Gabe abanded it like I assume abandons everyone in his life once he squeezes him for all they're worth). The event that gave us stories that we will tell our children. The event that gave us Lenny truly embodying DADDY in such a full frontal way that I'm unsure how anyone under the age of 18 would be allowed to legally buy this show. Style Battle baby WHO TO FOLLOW:

LENNY! LENNY LENNY LENNY! I MISS YOU DARLIN'! YOU LEFT ME WITH ROB? ROB?! WHAT DID I EVER DO TO YOU! I JUST WANTED TO LOVE YOU! RESPECT YOU! TREAT YOU RIGHT! GIVE FOOT RUBS LATE AT NIGHT! I WOULD GIVE YOU THE MOON AND STARS! I WOULD BECOME...the genius. Wrestling isn't fair. WHO TO FOLLOW:

Webster's Dictionary defines evolve as: to develop gradually:to evolve a scheme. to give off or emit, as odors or vapors. Gape Sapolsky defines EVOLVE as emitting complete and utter garbage every which way. EVOLVE 6 is a staggering show. It recontextualizes the quality of the prior shows. I have never understood booking less than I do now. Bucky and I came in thinking "bad booking but good wrestling we can work with that" and that...that's not what we are getting. We get STORIES based on "alleged homosexuality"...

Brad...you were too good for this world. You gave us so much pleasure. A performer unlike any other. We never get to become too close to you. The only thing Gabe allows us to know is your mom died from cancer on 9/11. For that, I'm sorry. This show is the epitome of the Booking Genious's prowess but is only 8 matches, so how bad could it be? WHO TO FOLLOW: WHERE TO WATCH: It didn't come up in a Google Search so I'm not linking

Bucky and Sam drop the hammer. We tell you the facts about EVOLVE 4: Danielson vs. Fish. As true wrestling pundits, we inform you who is Actually Good and who is Actually Bad. You might not like it but you will respect it. WHAT TO VIEW:

Wrestling is an art form. It isn't about the MOVES. It about the STORYTELLING outside the ring. NOTHING quite personifies that than EVOLVE 3: Rise or Fall. The STORIES. WOW!!! Gorgeous George would LOVE EVOLVE 3: Rise or FALL. Bring back those FEET! WHAT TO SEE: WHO TO FOLLOW:

Buckle in for takes PS Shane Strickland sucks eggs WHO TO FOLLOW: WHAT TO LOOK AT:

The lows and the lesser lows. Big kicks, little shrimps. Gabe came to have fun and we are along for the ride. Lenny Leonard's feet. WHO TO FOLLOW: EXTRA CONTENT:
info_outlineYesterday it was 60 degrees and today it is 15 degrees and there are 6 inches of snow on the ground. So we are going to put on the second interation of the We Don't Know Wrestling year-end awards up.
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
The Year End Wrestling Award Shows of your FRIGGIN’ DREAMS DADDY’O! Belee dat. Belee in Alabama Doink. Last year We Don’t Know Wrestling held the Always Bury Tanners and since Tanner left me to become a full-time Twitter gimmick we thought the sequel should be called the Formerly Known As Always Bury Tanners. On the panel for PART I is New York Mike, TJ Hawke, Tanner (I’m sorry), Devon Hales and myself. Now I steal from last year’s description.
The rules of the awards are not very simple. There will be a top 3 decided for each category in Part I of the Formerly Known As Always Bury Tanners. The top 3 will be decided by bantering, bartering, and general ruckus. Once the top 3 are set we put them in order to have a clear winner and two runner-ups. Also, if you want to tweet about the show use #WDKW so I can shamelessly RT you on that gimmick. Thanks.
