Sunday Feb 16, 2025

WWF WrestleMania 6 is a long one! 13 matches. However, 11 of them are less than 10 minutes long. Thankfully, Justin and Michelle wrap it all up into one hilarious hour (and a half) package for you!
This is the last time we will have Jesse Ventura on commentary, which is devastating to Michelle. In addition, this is Andre's last time in the ring on pay-per-view. Hopefully, it's the last time we see Rhythm & Blues perform in the ring because...WOOF. Oh... and The Genius is still here. 

Tuesday Feb 11, 2025

Please excuse Justin's funky audio! We tried to clean it up as best as possible!
This is a VERY exciting show, simply for the fact that we get our debut of not only Mean Mark Callous aka THE UNDERTAKER, but also, Cactus Jack Manson aka Mick Foley. Spoiler alert: Cactus Jack was... kind of hot? Along with that, JR talks a lot about education and seemingly predicts the future regarding Woman attacking Lex Luger. Join Justin and Michelle as they navigate this hella exciting show, with the best match between Lex Luger and Ric Flair yet!

Sunday Feb 02, 2025

Justin & Michelle turned that dial on the ol' time machine and have entered the greatest decade of all time, THE NINETIES!!! What better way to start it off than with the best show of the year (subject to opinion) the ROYAL RUMBLE? Along with some other great matches, we get the debut of Sapphire, a return of Brother LOVE and we say bye-bye to The Genius. Oh yeah... and Big Bossman is SWEATY. 

Sunday Jan 26, 2025

Welcome to the shortest episode of RassleRecap yet! One match, one movie, and a whole lot of dookie. Vince McMahon & Hulk Hogan supposedly wrote this movie in one day. After seeing the film, we actually kind of believe it. After the movie, there is a PPV with ONE tag team match. Why did Brutus and Randy need to be there?! There is a LOT to unpack in this short episode.

Sunday Jan 19, 2025

Justin & Michelle review WCW Starrcade 1989. The two are feeling very nostalgic; referencing 3 Ninjas, Vegas Vacation and Luby's. #TheGreenSquare
Although Starrcade 1989 has 2 round robin tournaments, there isn't a lack of excitement...because Jim Cornette is on commentary. Never a dull moment!

Sunday Jan 12, 2025

Justin & Michelle tackle the feat that is WWF Survivor Series 1989. Five matches, 4 wrestlers on each team, 2 teams per match, one dang format for all the matches. Thankfully, the dynamic duo finds a way to make this exciting! However, Michelle is NOT happy with Jake slapping the head of his snake over and over. #metaphor

Sunday Jan 05, 2025

Welcome to 2025, everybody! New year, old shows! It's what we do! Join Justin and Michelle as they dive into the FIRST ever Halloween Havoc. There are some new faces (The Cuban Assassin?), along with a questionable cage match with some hot talent for the main event. Most importantly, Justin makes a confession that he's held in for over 30 years...until now.

Sunday Dec 15, 2024

Justin & Michelle have made it to the back half of 1989! WWF SummerSlam 1989 was a weird one, with a few snafus that led to Mean Gene dropping the F bomb on live television. Another large snafu is not having Gorilla Monsoon with Jesse on commentary... which Justin & Michelle have thoughts about. However, DUSTY RHODES RETURNS in his signature black and yellow polka dot attire. Does his muffler have dots too?!

Sunday Dec 08, 2024

The duo travels back in time to Baltimore to watch WCW Great American Bash 1989! The show starts off hot with a 14-man battle royal, then the poor wrestlers all have a second match on the same show....well, most of them do. There's a Bloodhound, a Komodo dragon and Bill Irwin. Most importantly, Ric Flair heads to Funky town for the main event with his old buddy, Terry Funk. 

Sunday Dec 01, 2024

Join Justin & Michelle as they head to Nashville for WCW WrestleWar 1989! Junkyard Dog didn't show up, The Iron Sheik returned, and Rikishi is working under an alias known as "Fatu." We also learned that Justin did taekwondo?! Who knew?! Lastly, why the heck wasn't the Flair vs. Steamboat match not the FINAL main event?

About the Hosts

Justin Tate and Michelle Tate are lifelong wrestling fans and DNA mates. As brother and sister, the two began childhood watching wrestling on TV, attending live shows, and setting up a faux wrestling ring in the living room.

 

Justin and Michelle strive to tell the story of wrestling from the beginning, one pay-per-view at a time. However, through some well-developed comedy chops, RassleRecap is anything but a boring history lesson.
