Backstage Assault

The Greatest Podcast in the History of Our Sport

Welcome to the New Year! Did you miss us? We’ll fix that, as we unleash upon you the polygonal horrors of a game so misbegotten, it could only have come out at the end of both WCW and the Playstation’s life. Yes, we’re talking about WCW Backstage Assault, a wrestling game that makes the bold choice of not having a wrestling ring at all, thus breaking the seal on a glimpse into a reality where wrestling is a televised bloodsport of men punching men on loading docks and in filthy restrooms, often to death. Folks, you’ve never seen athletic competition like this before, and there’s a damn fine reason for that. No, it’s not because the rapidly glitching and oscillating competitors would break space/time. It’s more of an ethical reason. Tonight, on what will surely go down as the Greatest Podcast in the History of Our Sport, we neglect to question why Z-Gangsta wasn’t in this game. ZEUUUUUUUSSSS!!
