  Episode 163: Sting Trusts Lex Luger with His Big Bat (WCW Nitro 10/28/1996-1/20/1997)

  Mar 25, 20253h 6mS4

  <p>On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts podcast, we travel back to 1996 WCW, and for the first time, Sting is in the rafters! We hone in on Sting's journey for the next three months as he hangs out in the rafters, points baseball bats at people, tests WCW guys to see if they'll hit him, and dropping anybody who calls him out with his new finishing move. And between Jeff Jarrett, Lex Luger, the Steiner Brothers, and more, there sure are a lot of people who think dressing up in black and white means Sting is nWo. Also...

  Episode 162: Half Surfer, Half Crow, All Sting (WCW Nitro 10/21/1996)

  Mar 18, 20253h 30mS4

  <p>On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts Podcast, it's the go-home show to Halloween Havoc 1996, and Sting returns! And he's in spooky white face paint now! Is he nWo? He's the Crow! Kinda. But the only thing for sure about Sting right now is that nothing is for sure. Also on the show, the nWo is here doing amateur film work, Dean Malenko has a banger with a dude named JIMMY GRAFFITI, Jeff Jarrett and Ric Flair have a strut off, Eric Bischoff tries to trash talk over the World Series, Hulk Hogan takes over the set of 3...

  Episode 161: Sting, Wrestling's Hottest Free Agent (WCW Nitro 9/16/1996)

  Mar 11, 20252h 49mS4

  <p>On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts Podcast, it's the fall out from Fall Brawl 96, where nWo won because WCW were stupid. Get used to that. But Sting has decided that apparently, his years of loyalty wasn't enough for WCW, so he's a free agent now. It's the end of an era as we see Surfer Sting for the final time. Also on this episode, we get lucha match swaps from Fall Brawl, missing finishes to show nWo fanboys taking over the merch table, THE (NITRO) DEBUT OF GLACIER, an honest-to-God Hugh Morrus match, a new nWo member...

  Episode 160: I'm Seeing Double, Four Stings! (Fall Brawl 1996)

  Mar 4, 20253h 10mS4

  <p>On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts podcast, we return to WCW 1996, and it's time for War Games! WCW vs NWO! But who is the NWO's fourth man? And what side is Sting on? And will it be a War Games to remember? Well, the answer is Sting, WCW, and in a sense. As usual, the Cruiserweight division saves the show. Plus, DDP and Chavo go to work, Nick Patrick is on the take, the number one contender is a moron, and Harlem Heat still can't win a match without 3 interference spots. Won't you join us?</p>

  Episode 159: "Good" Things Comes to Those Who Steal (Lucha Underground 2x17)

  Feb 25, 20251h 49mS4

  <p>On this episode of the Noobs and Knockouts Podcast, we return to the Temple for more of Lucha Underground. In the main event, 7 men and women compete for the Gift of the Gods Championship, including Chavo Guerrero after stealing Cage's medallion. I'm sure that's not going to bite him in the behind later. Also on this episode, Daga finds a snake who wants his anaconda, Marty The Moth mocks The Troops (tm), and Pentagon Jr is undergoing some rigorous physical therapy for his back injury.
