On this episode of Something To Wrestle with Bruce Prichard, host Conrad Thompson jumps back in the wayback machine for a special look back at our WrestleMania 17/18 episodes. WM 17 - What a crazy month for Vince McMahon. The XFL is tanking and NBC wants out of the deal, Jerry Lawler walked out, ECW files for bankruptcy, Paul Heyman needs a job, Vince has a meltdown on HBO, he acquires WCW, and oh by the way he's about to put on the biggest WrestleMania ever! Bruce and Conrad dig into all of these moving parts going on behind the scenes before what will be the most financially successful WrestleMania ever up until that point setting records in nearly every category. The show would feature a crazy hardcore match people remember to this day, the crazy McMahon family story, an unreal match between Benoit and Angle, perhaps one of the silliest battle royals in WWE history, the tag team match that created a highlight reel by itself and set the standard for TLCs to come, and a match between the two biggest icons in the business at the time with an ending that changed everything. The guys break down the business aspect of the show, the creative, and the regrets coming out of the show. Don't miss one of the most requested topics ever -- WrestleMania X-Seven! WM 18 - Bruce and Conrad go back 20 years to revisit WrestleMania X8, which took on March 17, 2002 at the Skydome in Toronto! In it, we'd see the famous "Icon vs. Icon" match between "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock! And boy, what a spectacle that was. Other topics include Scott Hall vs. Steve Austin, rumors of Sting, APA at Tim White's Friendly Tap, Jericho vs. Triple H, and much more! Special thanks to this week's sponsors!
