Episode 440: The Promo That Started The WAR!

About this episode

On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric explains why WWE's return to traditional house shows could be a smart strategic move, and why those live events can play an important role in developing talent. That leads to a bigger discussion about wrestler development, as Eric makes the case for why acting classes should be mandatory for anyone trying to become a complete performer. Then, the guys debate SmackDown expanding to three hours and why Eric believes adding more television could be a risky move. Plus, they look back at the infamous "WHAT?!" chant and how it became the perfect example of an audience taking control of a live wrestling show. And finally, Eric and Conrad go back 30 years to revisit the forgotten Nitro promo that helped kick off the Attitude Era, a moment often overshadowed by everything that followed but one that signaled professional wrestling was about to change forever.     THIS WEEKS SPONSORS BLUECHEW - When you buy two months of BlueChew Gold, you get the third FREE with promo code 83WEEKS.
