What was your daily after school cartoon rotation?
What did yall think about Super Dragon Bandido?
Have you guys seen the 1997 Slammys? Would love to have a podcast on that! Also, please play Mortal Kombat someday for AfterShow!
What was the boys favorite tv block lineup growing up? And what shows do you mostly remember watching the last 5 minutes of waiting for the next show or block to start?
What are the boy’s MLB predictions for this season?
Was gonna ask if Jon blud was a secret chef on a cooking show there’s no way. Mans had the beard long hair and bandana and his name was Jonathan. No but last episode hearing James you fuck with monster jam, which was your favorite truck growing up. Mines was Goldberg.
What are some of your previously held opinions of pro wrestling that have changed since you started Dpw and the pod?
Favorite up up girl?
Have you guys ever watched or heard of a pilot show called Monster Trux 2000: The New Thrillenium? It was on UPN in February 2000 where they made a monster truck racing show that emulated WWF's "Attitude Era"-like storylines in between races. That's right, you get to see how non-wrestling people make a scripted sport show, with a big focus on the "scripted" part. It could be the "best/worst" thing you have seen. It's easy to find on Youtube. Would you be willing to watch it for The Long Way?
James, did you ever go to PWX in NC back in the day when it was hot? They had some pretty crazy matches if yall haven't seen them.
Just watched the last Raw of TV 14 on July 14th 2008 and it needs to be seen to be believed, it is fast paced within 20 minutes we got through 3 segments and 2 matches, also the show ends with attempted vehicular manslaughter
Any chance we get a fire promoter series on the after show. Also what are you guys favorite career mode characters you have used, ex Old Man Jenkins or Jimmy James Jamison
Have either of you read the book “Nitro: The incredible Rise and Inevitable Collapse of Ted Turners WCW.” By Guy Evans? I watched The Monday Night Wars as a kid and this was a DEEP dive into what exactly happened in WCW. I don’t think “The Rise and Fall of WCW” dvd was this detailed. Highly recommended as an alternative to “The Whale” next time you boys go to Japan. 😂
What storyline from the past would you add yourself into for purely gooning reasons?
I know James is a big belt guy, any recommendations of things to look for in a quality replica for someone who hasn’t purchased one before?
Hey Jawnny im going to be in Philadelphia Tennessee this weekend what would you recommend for things to do?
Top 3 all time metal albums ? Plz n ty
Great podcast very good podcast. Been rewatching the pod and I’m trying to figure out why James pretends to hate the Miz even though he spent the first 6-7 episodes of the pod doing tricks on the Awesome one’s mizard of Oz?
Yall jarbonies got a favorite credit card? If I HAD to pick one it would probably be CHASE. Actually my real question is....do yall got the testicular fortitude to watch any Herb Abrams produced wrestling for watch this?
You guys said this week on the pod that Super Battle was super stressful, but it wound up being an incredible show (I was there, it kicked ass!) can you give us a little BTS DPW story time of that day? I miss those from the early days of DPW
Hows it been, adjusting to doing the pod with out Tony
What would Jizzames and Jizzohny’s Whacky Unconventional DDT4 Tag Team Tournament name be? I think it should be “Snap into a Schlong Jim The Schlong Way, and… Chase Brian…the dragon…..son…while Johnny smokes Crack on the couch with Mr. Fuji” and Excalibur must announce it in full every time
thoughts on the dog poop that was scream 7?
James will say "no one fucks with boxing" - have either of you seen Hagler Hearns? Would classic boxing fights be of any interest for a watch this? Only best of the best fights, but they can be just as entertaining as MMA
Are there any failed gimmicks you think would actually work on a different wrestler? Like what if you gave Mordecai to Percy Watson instead of Kevin Vampire Dude
What is a dream game mode you'd want to see added to a wrestling game? One that has never been in a game before.
Curious about how you guys felt about seeing speedball and Jake something going at it on TV.
Hey boys. first off I just wanna thank you guys for what you do, your content always makes my days better and I’m sure it does the same for many others. My question is if you guys can share your favorite or funniest memory with each other. And again thank you guys for doing what you do, you guys are awesome. #deadlocked4lifepussies
Have you guys ever been to Canada or England? As a dual citizen of both I was curious to know what you guys think of the countries. Love the content ❤️
Hey James and Jawnny, what’s your favorite types of food? Could be eaten short way or long way, your choice.
How do you feel about the direction that the MJF/Adam Cole Best Friends storyline went? Where do you think it could’ve gone to make it better?
What’s your favorite storyline that ended too soon? It can’t be Michael Cole and Heidenreich.
Did you guys see the black snow reference in Wwe 2k26 with Booker T calling his own match?? I’m black snowwwww

I know you guys don’t watch WWE anymore, but what do you guys check out for wrestling now? I pretty much only get my wrestling content from Deadlock at this point, love watching the SGHs. Is there anything current you guys are into?
You've been putting out a lot more content recently. How has the workflow changed in the past few months? As much as we love all the content, are you boys making sure you pace yourselves so you don't burn yourselves out?
Can I have a DPW turnbuckle pad? I promise I won't eat it like big George.
If you had to guess, how big do YOU think Batista's dick is?
Hey boys. I know you guys are fellow horror fans, so I am asking how much stock you put into reviews, and do they influence what you do or don’t check out. Lately, I’ve taken them with a grain of salt. I kinda enjoyed Psycho Killer for what it was, but it got a 0% RT score, yet none of the awful Strangers reboots did.
With SGH being replaced by the Long Way is there anyway we could get a quarterly UFC watch a long series?
For James: Any tips for Pokemon: Crystal Legacy, I started playing a run after I saw it on the after show! Also, Fuck the Eagles ♥️

I immediately shut that down then he said Ministry Taker was agile at the time so I responded with the Deadlock short of Kane and Undertaker casket match and he said all wrestlers have bad nights.
