DEADLOCK Podcast #309 (Video)
WCW Saturday Night from January 30th, 1993 features one of WCW’s most bizarre creations: the White Castle of Fear. In the lead up to SuperBrawl III, Sting receives a mysterious invitation to Big Van Vader’s icy mountain lair to play an insane game. What followed was a strange vignette filled with mind games that felt more like a low-budget action movie. It really is something to witness. Also, because so many fans love it, we get to see the 2 Cold Scorpio music video! Set to his theme song, the video featured Scorpio dancing, flying through the air in the ring, and more importantly playing basketball against a group of kids and absolutely dominating them. 2 Cold Scorpio was truly ahead of his time! Plus, The Z Man takes on Chris Benoit, Maxx Payne makes his WCW debut, Paul Orndorff battles The Barbarian, and Vader and Barry Windham wrestle Sting and Dustin Rhodes in the main event!

Whoever is, “Hey Jawwny, I’m in the underworld for the rest of eternity brother, is there anything fun to do here, only love. -HH” Best name ever
Stevil Nyevil nearly made me crash my car
WHODAMAN?
Great episode boys. I remember watching this at the age of 9. Scott Flamingo looks like Raven 😂😂😂😂
i hope pre-nitro saturday night becomes a staple of the podcast, these have been my favourite episodes
going on a fifteen minute maxx payne tangent after seeing one still frame of him is an all time pod moment for me
Maxx Payne is the textbook definition of ‘looking like a smacked ass’.
My guess is that Rockstar/Remedy looked at how much it would cost in legal fees to get Maxx Payne's wack-ass lawsuit tossed out, offered him like $100k to take a hike, and he said "Hell yeah"
That's just good business 😂 And I mean for Maxx Payne here
good job jame for hitting agility level 40 my fatass hasnt made it that far yet
i’m loving the james runescape arc keep it coming 🙌
VShojo getting buried here was not on my bingo card lmao
Last time I went to the White Castle of Fear I had to go to the Restroom of Shame
White castle without Harrold and kumar, go straight to super hell
i am once again asking you to please watch Paul Orndorff and Cactus Jack’s Falls Count Anywhere match from SuperBrawl III
Need a deadlock power ranger pod
i would kill for that
This was awesome, fun episode. Vader is one of the most based wrestlers ever, aside from Maxx Payne. Always cool to see the boys cover this era
DUDE I WAS CRACKIN UP WHEN THEY READ YOUR NAME IN THE SHOUTOUT SEG (an ep or two ago)
GZ on 40 agility
Here's the trailer for the Man Mountain Rock documentary that Tony brought up. It looked sick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlkbAlKL2QM
It’s a shame I never grew up on 90s Sting
Surfer Sting is such an S-tier babyface.
Shout out to my goat Cheatum the One-Eyed Midget, also seen in Spin The Wheel Make The Deal and the Beach Blast 93 mini movie
The boys definitely need to see the other two segments to fully grasp the lore of Sting being hounded by a one-eyed little person
Fuck yeah, boys. More Vader content, please. Vader time is all the time.
Just wanna take the time to say FUCK THE WWE
Jawnny needs to dress as maxx Payne for Halloween
“That White Castle of fear” ohh that must be a typo from the boys. Watches the episode. Nope
SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAYYYYY
That's AJ Stylesmungus
Ive never seen a man more locked into Runescape than James during the updates.
Maxx Payne was quoting the song "Sweating Bullets" by Megadeth btw
Hearing Jawnny do the updates…get well soon to Colby.
The Evil Midget is from a previous WCW vignette where Sting visits Jake Roberts for Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal. https://youtu.be/krudzxbcwq0
Also a hilarious Beach Blast '93 promo where Sting and Bulldog are plucky babyfaces at the beach when Vader and Sid show up and be evil. Also for some reason Cheatum (The Evil Midget) straps an explosive onto a boat and it blows up presumably killing our heroes, until they rise again. In general, WCW spent a lot of money on these things and I cannot imagine they got the return they wanted. It's great for us to watch in the future though.
Cactus Jack & Maxx Payne vs. the Nasty Boys is 1000% Watch This material, just nonstop ill-advised brawling
Also features Mick's signature WCW spot: Nasty Concrete Bump.
I smoked a blunt with 2 cold at Indy show few years ago, dude is funny and has a lot of stories
Please more things from the early 90s and before, always love when y'all watch
We need more early 90s WCW. Maybe even a starrcade or two. I'll be the only one watching though :(
Guy like me is putting the title on Maxx Payne immediately.
Dungeon Keeper pfp holy based
White castle fries only come in one size
Put respect on the name of Cheatum the Evil Midget.
Cheatum the One-Eyed Midget my beloved
PLAY THE GAMEEEEEE
