Ep. 45: 1993 Survivor Series
b'The Lapsed Fan podcast is back with yet another deep dive, this time on the 1993 WWF Survivor Series \\u2013 the night of multiple Doinks, multiple twists and turns, and multiple fails.
Join co-chairmen Jack Encarnacao and JP Sarro as they dissect a zany but interesting pay-per-view event that came in the throes of the World Wrestling Federation feeling the heat of a steroid distribution indictment and other industry turmoil.
The show touches on, among many, many other things:
- Lex Luger, in a classic Americana sweater, and family wish you a Happy Thanksgiving by a warm fire
- A true tour de force of quips and jokes from Bobby Heenan, in his last great stand as a WWF color commentator
- Heenan calls Ludvig Borga \\u201cThe Wrestler of the 90s,\\u201d but that wasn\\u2019t intended as comedy
- Memories of Undertaker revealing the American flag colors in the lining of his trench coat as he joins the All Americans, and unanswered questions about what exactly happened to Tatanka
- Yokozuna on Conan O\\u2019Brien
- The seed is planted for Owen turning on Bret, and sadness over the fact that modern WWE performers so rarely get so much out of doing so little. A eulogy for subtlety in wrestling.
- The pain of four Doinks
- The Smoky Mountain tag titles are on the line in a high-stakes battle
