One of the most influential moments in professional wrestling history takes center stage this week on Something To Wrestle as John Layfield and Conrad Thompson welcome WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco for a fascinating firsthand look at Black Saturday.
Gerald was there when Vince McMahon's takeover of Georgia Championship Wrestling forever changed the industry, and he shares the real story behind one of wrestling's most controversial days. Hear untold stories, behind-the-scenes details, and why the true impact of Black Saturday is still felt more than four decades later.
The conversation doesn't stop there. JBL and Conrad also dive into the biggest topics in wrestling today, including AAA running Chicago during the same weekend as AEW, why Chad Gable has discovered the secret sauce that makes great professional wrestling, and the legendary reputation of the WWE corporate jet, where some of the industry's most unforgettable stories were born.
Plus, JBL shares the unbelievable tale of the night Ole Anderson tried to make him a blood brother, revealing another outrageous chapter from wrestling's wild past.
And, of course, no episode would be complete without another laugh-out-loud installment of Curtain Jerkers, featuring Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco, as the stories, jokes, and behind-the-scenes memories keep rolling.
