Red. Blue. Yellow. YES, YELLOW. RAW, SmackDown, and NXT are all vying for brand supremacy at this Sunday’s Survivor Series. Before that even happens, NXT is putting on what is sure to be a hell of a show the night before. Even if you don’t keep up with every weekly show, there’s a lot to be excited about.

Meanwhile, we also break down some items of cultural significance – from Jim Cornette’s racist remarks to ACH taking a stand – there’s a lot to take in with pro wrestling in 2019. Some good – some bad – but lots to learn from it all regardless of where you stand.

ALSO: Make sure and check out Kraken’s NXT / WrestleMania promotion on social media (@KrakenRum), and (just for our listeners) visit contest.thesteelcage.com before the end of Survivor Series to enter to win a special prize pack.

For most of the last 30+ years of my life, I've been watching WWE. As a kid, Monday Night Raw hooked me from the start. From Bret Hart and Razor Ramon, to Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock, to CM Punk and Daniel Bryan.. I've witnessed the ups and downs and I'm proud to have enjoyed pro wrestling through the years.

Though I now watch in a much different fashion than I did when I was a kid (finding out Vince McMahon was the owner and Jack Tunney no more than a figurehead was like finding out Santa Claus did not exist), I feel like I have a much greater appreciation for the hard work pro wrestlers do and the things they sacrifice to entertain us.

It's still real to me, dammit!
