RWR Power Pro Wrestling Podcast Ep. 29 (10/31/98) HALLOWEEN SPECIAL

It’s Halloween in Memphis, and Power Pro Wrestling has completely lost its mind. Gene Jackson, Robb Helt, and Brian Tramel head back to October 31, 1998 for the infamous Masquerade Maul , where everybody on the show is wrestling in a costume including Batman, Catwoman, Popeye, Spiderman, Gene Simmons, a killer clown who definitely isn’t “Doink”, a Snowman who definitely isn’t Eddie Crawford, Leatherface, and more. Some of the costumes work. Some absolutely don’t. And by the time Brian Christopher is trying to wrestle while keeping a giant Popeye head attached to his body, the whole thing starts feeling less like wrestling show and more like a nyquil induced fever dream. There is at least a little actual storyline progression mixed into the madness, including Randy Hales getting tarred and feathered by Spiderman who makes a pretty memorable entrance from the atop a dumpster. But mostly? This is one of the strangest hours of Power Pro Wrestling we’ve watched yet, that seems to be heavier on TRICKS than it is TREATS. Happy Halloween! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
