Kris & David are joined by Charles aka “Loss” from Pro Wrestling Only to discuss the week that was June 27-July 3, 1998. We discuss the powder keg that is Hulk Hogan vs. Kevin Nash backstage in WCW, as well as some great clips including the “ACME Eddie Trap” from Thunder. We go over all the big international stories before Beau James makes a surprise guest appearance in the US Indies section where we talk about Tod Gordon and friends invading NWA New Jersey, Atsushi Onita finally showing up at the ECW Arena, and a wild Power Pro section including Corey Maclin saving the American flag. Charles then rejoins us for the WWF where we rundown the King of the Ring PPV and RAW after it featuring all the backlash from Undertaker/Mankind Hell in a Cell as well as two WWF World Title switches. A fantastic show, so don’t miss it!!!!!
