EPISODE PRODUCTION NOTES:
• Original Release Date: 6 June 2011
• Billboard Gag: Macho logo (no gag, as Randy Savage had recently passed)
• First show to feature Steve (V1)
• Much like early Botchamanias, the original idea was to have a Macho promo before every episode, as seen here.
• Macho Promo: A Champion’s Perogative (All Star Wrestling March 1st, 1986). Macho promos were supposed to start as many episodes as possible (just like early Botchamanias)
• First show to feature the Macho Man title card (rather than Hogan, as Macho became the mascot for the show)
• Wrestling is Awesome: BONESAW IS READY

V1 immediately brought up the energy and brought personality

[@tangoblue]

“Just because I get sick, brother I don’t get called in tired for the job, man.” is a badass line. THIS is the Hulk Hogan 80s kids adored.

[@RossTheNinja]

The more osw I watch, the more I appreciate macho. I think he might be the greatest ever

[@heyyoitsmebrian]

conversely, the more osw u watch, the more you hate hogan

Macho really brought a since of theatrics yet realism to his promos and is to this day I think still under rated.

V1 is too over to be a boy.

[@doomsdan101ortiz4]

Wendi Richter didn't leave wrestling *for good*, she worked in Puerto Rico for years and even married Hugo Savinovich AKA Hugo Sandwich AKA the guy at the Spanish announce table

She also had a run in the AWA in 1988 and 1989 as the Women's Champion.

ATANGANA!!!!

[@Hammerhead547]

I'm actually quite surprised that Ozzy Osbourne was even sober enough to make that appearance because he had a massive relapse at the end of the Bark At The Moon Tour and was either drunk or high almost all the time which made the 1986 tour for The Ultimate Sin a very difficult experience for all involved, he wouldn't get completely clean again until 1991 for what was supposed to be his retirement tour. He was recently shown some footage from a show he played in Philadelphia during the No Rest For The Wicked Tour in the summer of 1989 which was broadcast live on PPV and he flat out said that he didn't remember even playing the show because he was in his own words : "drunk off my ass"

Comfort food is a brilliant description, can of coke to you sir. I also find it great to fall asleep too.

[@gatchywatchyentertainmentb2090]

My favorite of the three I think he’s the funniest.

[@melad3588]

The thing I'm liking about this podcast is they explain the context behind the PPVs, which is helpful for me because I want to go through all the WEE PPVs, but don't want to watch ten thousand episodes of Raw/Smackdown to get the context for them. Also I like that OSW gives the real world context for what's going on as well, some thing I would not get from just watching the PPVs on there own.

[@mattbell3638]

Anyone remember how King Kong Bundy used to make the ref count to 5 when he'd pin an opponent?!

He also seems to go toe-to-toe with Jay for note taking right from the beginning, too!

"I thought it was great". OOC should review it solo.

[@supercurrymax]

Damn heenan flipped over the top rope and landed on his feet. That was awesome.

[@billhicks6449]

Heenan was a helluva a worker and a helluva wrestler before he messed up his neck and had to switch to managing/a match once in a while. People who loved his stuff in WWF should check out his run with Bockwinkel when Nick was champ in the AWA. They were hilarious and badass.

[@legionarybooks13]

Wrestlemania 2 was also the start of Piper's (unintended) babyface turn. I'm surprised they didn't mention it, but during their bout, you can clearly hear the crowd chanting, "Roddy! Roddy! Roddy!" Piper said many years later that he loved being a heel and had no intention of turning babyface, but the fans forced it on him. He said that's why he threw the stool at Mr. T. He was trying to turn the crowd to turn against him, but they weren't budging.

[@matthewnash2393]

I love WrestleMania 2, it was unique and had a lot of 1st, i love rewatching it, always feels like i'm watching 3 different shows. It may get a lot of bad reviews, but it's definitely in my top 10 WrestleManias of all time, and always will be! So Classic!

[@jamesbonnen]

The crowd was cheering for Roddy Piper by the end of the boxing match.

[@119Agent]

Fans always cheered for heel Piper in 1985/86.

[@pigs18]

Ted Arcidi's weightlifting belt and "strongest man in the world" tagline weren't just a gimmick. He really was a world champion weightlifter who set a few weightlifting records.

Love this channel and have for years, I always wanted a great review of all the wrestling I grew up watching and you guys filled that void, thank you all

[@Bunny-Verse]

I absolutely love these reviews. Jay Hunter, Steve (Mr. OOC) and Steve (V1) you guys are fkn hilarious. Pointing out the most obvious, like Coked up Hogan Promo's, best jacked up Roided body, the racism and stereotypes in 80's Wrestling and giving Jessie the Body his proper due in how fkn hilarious and the great commentator he was from 1985 to 1990. Then by 1993, realizing what Hulk Hogan had became, C**t Hogan 🤣🤣🤣. It took me until late 2020 to find and begin watching my 1st OSW Review episode. I binged watch 5 episodes and exploded like the Mega Powers at Wrestlemania V. Fkn love you guys!!!

Fun Fact: The CFL's championship trophy (The Grey Cup) actually dates back to 1909 when it was awarded for the first time to the Toronto Varsity Blues, it's also named after Lord David Grey who donated it to the league when he was serving as governor general to canada. The league itself dates back to 1884 when it was formed as a successor league to the then defunct canadian rugby league, the league rules are actually based off of international rugby rules and the game is played on a 110 yard (goal line to goal line) field. This year will mark the 124th anniversary of the league (the 65th since it was reorganized into the current CFL in 1958) and the 109th awarding of the grey cup when the championship game concludes on November 19th at Mosaic Stadium in Regina Saskatchewan.

[@rotomwash0355]

This is the internet comment we need.

[@MrKennyWilliams]

I think it was stated but Randy Savage is TECHNICALLY Right calling himself The Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion, that IS the name on the belt.

[@JonCombo]

He said "of the World" as well.

[@BronzeBullBalls]

What's the difference between World or Intercontinental anyways? It means the same damn thing...

[@BronzeBullBalls]

I know the distinction in wrestling terms....What I mean is that there is literally no distinction in the English language between the word WORLD and Intercontinental. World means all over the globe and the same meaning can be garnered from the word intercontinental. I think that it makes more sense logically to call a secondary title something like North American championship, USA championship or whatever. Not to mention there is also a huge globe on the intercontinental belt... you see Europe and Africa on the belt in that globe as well.

[@BronzeBullBalls]

Also, he is a heel... so he is going to exaggerate whatever prestige his title holds all the same. I wouldn't bat an eye if someone with the European or TV championship would claim to be holding the Universal world championship.... it's just a heel being a braggart.

[@loudiaz1292]

BronzeBullBalls intercontinental means inside the continent. There are 7 continent's in the world. So it's not the same thing. Do you understand now?

Piper hated Mr. T in real life i think. Cuz on a talk show he gets angry and says Mr T is the only guy i know who wears more chains then his ancestors. So yeah i dont think he was acting

[@Woods4guns]

TheNinjaNightWarrior I heard piper wanted to shoot fight him in the boxing match so they made sure his hands were taped due to his boxing background

[@Freedom-yf6xn]

So was V1 invited to the show because OOC didn't watch and prepare for this episode? Would be quite serendipitous

[@OSW]

Ha ha! No it was always supposed to be a 4-man show but v1 couldn't make episode 1. (We had rescheduled it twice due to people not making it so it was in danger of never happening!)

Weylon Mercy was based of Robert Di Nero's character in Cape Fear. I guess Vince liked wrestlers having gimmicks straight out of his favorite movies, although Kevin Nash did this in WCW with Vinnie Vegas.
