Journey: Wrestlemania (1985)", "description": "Let us at The Lapsed Fan wrestling podcast be the first to say … The Road to Wrestlemania 31 starts now!\n\nThat’s right. The first week of September.\n\nThat’s because for the next – count em – 30 weeks, Lapsed Fan hosts Jack Encarnacao and JP Sarro will embark on a quixotic journey through each and every Wrestlemania, in order, in their signature fashion. They begin, of course, with the Wrestlemania 1, March 31, 1985, in Madison Square Garden, a momentous night to say the least.\n\nAnd the table is expertly set by the expert himself, as Wrestling Observer newsletter editor Dave Meltzer chimes in to talk about living through Wrestlemania 1 and, over the next several months, reporting on wrestling as each Wrestlemania dawned, including never-before-told stories.\n\nJourney this week with Jack and JP through the short-lived, but incredibly successful, Rock n Wrestling connection, including:\n\n- Which superstar Gene Okerlund – with a straight face – said on MTV weeks before the show “combines compassion, brute strength, intuition, and the latest in wrestling science.”\n\n- The story behind the very first WM match, The Executioner v. Tito Santana\n\n- Who the real main attraction was in the building that night, and how it foreshadowed a blueprint Vince McMahon would use over the years to spark interest in his product\n\n- The true MVP of this show. Hint: Roddy Piper.\n\n- The Gorilla Monsoon “It’s a happening!” Wrestlemania 1 drinking game\n\n- Richard Belszer desperately tries to convey the Hulk Hogan choke-out incident wasn’t a work\n\n- Andy Warhol desperately tries to convey that wrestling is a work, ironically of course\n\n- Andre the Giant’s leg kicking game\n\n- An incredibly nervous Al Hayes\n\n- The historical curiosity that is Wendi Richter\n\nAll that, and so … much … more. Get Lapsed across the face with the damnedest Wrestlemania 1 review you’ve ever heard, with 29 more coming your way. It’s exhaustive. It’s exhausting. It’s worth it.", "number": 13, "date": "July 22, 2015", "duration": 254, "podcast": { "name": "The Lapsed Fan", "abbreviation": "TLF", "logo": { "asset": { "gatsbyImageData": { "images": { "sources": [], "fallback": { "src": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/51a64fd77b5a230e6bfa158ee903b4f56ff37daf-640x640.jpg?w=640&h=640&auto=format", "srcSet": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/51a64fd77b5a230e6bfa158ee903b4f56ff37daf-640x640.jpg?w=320&h=320&auto=format 320w,\nhttps://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/51a64fd77b5a230e6bfa158ee903b4f56ff37daf-640x640.jpg?w=640&h=640&auto=format 640w", "sizes": "(min-width: 640px) 640px, 100vw" } }, "layout": "constrained", "backgroundColor": "#ec1c24", "width": 640, "height": 640 } } } }, "links": { "applePodcasts": "https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-lapsed-fan/id1044102900?i=1000381662402", "googlePodcasts": "https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvMzU3MjU3Ni9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVk/episode/dGFnOnNvdW5kY2xvdWQsMjAxMDp0cmFja3MvMjE1OTE3NDc0?sa=X&ved=0CAUQkfYCahcKEwjY9MzFhsb2AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAQ", "spotify": "https://open.spotify.com/episode/1ep3rDtZTnEDDUT8oeECdi", "youtube": null }, "artwork": { "asset": { "gatsbyImageData": { "images": { "sources": [], "fallback": { "src": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/6d21f933c8895c4b72cd7e75ff48ec313046019d-640x640.jpg?w=640&h=640&auto=format", "srcSet": "https://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/6d21f933c8895c4b72cd7e75ff48ec313046019d-640x640.jpg?w=320&h=320&auto=format 320w,\nhttps://cdn.sanity.io/images/06480j25/production/6d21f933c8895c4b72cd7e75ff48ec313046019d-640x640.jpg?w=640&h=640&auto=format 640w", "sizes": "(min-width: 640px) 640px, 100vw" } }, "layout": "constrained", "backgroundColor": "#f3c21f", "width": 640, "height": 640 } } } }, { "id": "-37576646-d845-5e1c-bead-b4d29bc7fc47", "name": "Wrestlemania 1", "description": "VIDEO VERSION at OSWreview.com!
