DEADLOCK Podcast #342 (Video)

"THIS IS BULL.."

We're on the road to WWF WrestleMania 13, but before we get there, we have to set into the WAR ZONE. That's right, it's WWF Monday Night RAW is WAR, which is a really long name that eventually is just WWF RAW is WAR! There's a lot of big matches coming up on this PPV, and we get a little piece of all of them on this very show.

Of course, this is the episode of RAW where Bret Hart, after a main event cage match for the WWF Championship against Sycho Sid, loses his mind. He feels like everyone is against him, and he decides to take out that frustration verbally after pushing Vince McMahon down to the canvas! That main event also includes run-ins from Stone Cold Steve Austin & The Undertaker, who both want their opponent at WrestleMania 13 to leave this show with the WWF Championship, so they can get a shot at it.

Also on this show, we get to hear from Shawn Michaels, who just recently returned to the WWF, and we get an updated on his condition. Faarooq & Ahmed Johnson are barred from ringside during a match between the Legion of Doom & the Nation of Domination, which leads to some backstage chaos between the two. Ken Shamrock is here to scout a legend in Aaron Ferguson, and Billy Gunn also happens to be here getting in the way of that.

Of course, we have to mention the REAL main event; Mini Vader & Mini Mankind take on Mini Goldust & Mascarita Sagrada. It does not get any better than this.

All of that, and much more, on this episode of the DEADLOCK Podcast!

MAXIMUM DESTRUCTION FANS RISE UP!!! Also I’m pretty sure Raven’s dad has something to do with starting The Inquirer. Saw it in the same shoot where him and Sandman drunkenly sing London Calling

The one piece of advice I have for getting those Heavy Rain glitches, though it's been a while, is "Just mash, just mash." Until the game doesn't know what to do with itself anymore. Though I'm not sure it works as well on later releases, the best clips are from before the PS3 update with the Move controller.

Loved the end of this episode, just so great to have Austin and Taker both trying to interfere for their own gains. Gave greater weight to Mania with it being 6 days away, chaotic in a good way.
