Kris & David are guestless this week was we discuss the DAY that was November 6, 1999. Yes, one day....you will understand why when you listen to the show. This was a Patreon-requested show that Pete Fusco put on the board, so if you want to be a Patron and have a chance to pick a week yourself, then visit Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets to find out how you can do that.
We talk about the infamous Doug Gilbert shoot promo on Memphis Power Pro Wrestling, going over the full month of buildup to the incident so you get the full context of why it happened. In addition to all of the relevant promo clips, we play Doug's thoughts from his shoot interview DVD many years later. We also talk about the 100 greatest matches of Keiji Mutoh’s career, all kinds of results from around the world, plus Mick Foley's book shattering records and much more. This was a short show—by our standards, at least—but an extremely fun one, as well, so check it out!!!
