Kris & David are joined by Pete Schirmacher (Titans of Wrestling/This Week in Wrestling) to discuss the week that was January 12-18, 1996. We discuss Sabu & Peter McNeely being in the 1996 Royal Rumble and why it didn’t happen, the vindictiveness of Vince McMahon, Billionaire Ted strikes a nerve in WCW, the birth of BattlARTS, AAA vs. Televisa, wacky MMA bit on the Phil Donahue Show, the awesomeness of early 1996 USWA, the Welch Family Tree, and Mike Ditka managing Mongo McMichael??????
