Lords Of Pain Radio

On this week's show, Mazza, Maverick and Shinobi discuss the possibility that the WWE are currently in the middle of a tag team revolution.  The begin by looking back at how the division has ebbed and flowed through the years.  They then look at the current depth and whether we are likely to see tag team wrestling return to the glory days of the late 80s and early 90s, or at least during the late Attitude Era.    Tune in at the normal time. 

Due to circumstances beyond our control, Danno is alone tonight in a trunkated episode of Pillow Talk. He shares the secret to marriage longevity, a secret you gentlemen should hold tight to your hearts.   Masturbation.   The Thwap Factor is Danno's patented system in evaluating Diva related . That's right, Diva related !   Join Danno in his bath as he recounted the horrors of ography involving professional wrestling.     An exceptionally short Happy Talk too. Probably not worth the mention.

This week, The Doc is joined by regular guest, Rich Latta, from Social Suplex and One Nation Radio to take an in-depth look at NXT Takeover specials and their impact on WWE's regular brand specifically when they take place on Summerslam and WrestleMania weekends.  Doc is of the opinion that no further sample size is needed: NXT Takeover and these major PPV weekends don't mix; they're not good for WWE fan enjoyment of the two biggest shows of the year, particularly diehard fans.  Does Rich agree?  Is there an alternative option?

It's the first Starrcade since Ric Flair left WCW for the WWF. But instead of delivering a PPV on the level with past Starrcade events, WCW delivered Battlebowl. Should the world title have been on the line? Should WCW have delivered Sting v. Luger? How does the first Battlebowl hold up aside from the association with Starrcade?

On this week's show, Plan and Shinobi take care of the first half by looking back at NXT Takeover Dallas and WrestleMania 32.  Here their thoughts on the best matches, what didn't quite work and why.  Then Mazza and Maverick take control to give their brief thoughts on the big events before going into the new direction WWE are taking with Raw.  Find out what they think about where the company is going next as well as the NXT call ups. 

It was Wrestlemania weekend! Did you enjoy it?   Danno and Kidney Bean return with their alternative take on the entire Wrestlemania weekend.   Did you notice Shane McMahon's fake tan?   Did you see Taker's corned beef back?   Why does Shinsuke Nakamura look like a sex offender?   AJ Styles did a forward roll!     Also, WWE needs more BBC theme tunes in their life.   The Gallery and Happy Talk also return.   Number One on a Thursday! @Dannokaboom

This week, The Doc returns from his trip to WrestleMania 32 exhausted from travel, a 7-hour show, staying up way too late three nights in a row, and arguing with Smarky Mark and the Funky Bunch about wrestling quality at the biggest show of the year.  He'll address the vitriol pointed in WrestleMania's direction and talk about a card in place of what we were given that might have satisfied the jaded and uninspired.  Beware, Doc is tired and in a rather unusually combative mood; so be prepared to potentially be jarred by his own brand of vitriol.  Also, Doc addresses the rumors about Undertaker having wrestled his last match.  He believes it might be true and he'll tell you why.

Join us here LIVE on LOP Radio as we bring you all the results and reactions from WWE's biggest PPV event of the year, the epic WrestleMania 32!

For the third year in a row, Joey Shinobi, Maverick, Mazza and 'Plan get together to predict and preview the Wrestlemania card. This year's build may have been lacklustre in some respects, but the chaps are still HYPED for the biggest weekend in the sports entertainment calendar. They'll be discussing the importance of the pre-show, their opinions on the Divas Revolution and how we got to the triple threat between three of the four "NXT Horsewomen", their disgust at the booking of the seven man ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship, the storyline potential of Shane McMahon's rebellion against his father's dominion, what will happen in the WWE World Heavyweight Title match, whether Dean Ambrose will parlay his Street Fight with Brock Lesnar into an Austin like top babyface run, and much much more. Look out for the usual raft of insane predictions, mirth and banter- because let's face it, no-one does that better than the TRSOTP boys! As a bonus, they'll also curtain jerk the show with some quick NX

Ok, it's a Wrestlemania show. Dan is tired, listen please

This being Doc's favorite week of the year, he thought he'd take you through the entirety of WrestleMania weekend in preview form.  First, Doc will breakdown the NXT Takeover: Dallas card and discuss what's at stake for the participants of the major matches beyond simply performing at a high level.  Next, he'll take a thorough look at the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame class.  The night is always a blast to witness; is this year going to live up to the reputation forged in the past?  Finally, it's time for the biggest show of the year: WrestleMania.  Doc has already gone through the big matches on past editions, but will add thoughts now that the hype is complete and breakdown the undercard as well.

Clash of the Champions XVII

This week Mazza and Plan take a look at the lacklustre build to the WrestleMania 32 and suggest ways the WWE could have made the feuds better.  Find out what the guys have liked and what they haven't on the road to this year's installment of the showcase of the immortals.  How could they change perception of the WWE title match?  How could they have made the cell match seemed less random.  What would they have changed in the story of the no holds barred match?  Tune in at the usual time to find out. 

Danno and Kidney Bean return this week in what has been a rather slow news week. Never fear, they can spin enough bollocks out of the thinnest of threads.   Isn't the WWE network awesome? we love it, but we think it could be improved further with added original content.we have some golden ideas, take a listen.   Why are the WWE insisting on giving all of their wrestlers stupid names. We try to improve them. let's be honest they can't get much worse.   Happy Talk and the Gallery also feature.   Number one on a thursday.   @dannokaboom
