In this episode, Alex and James tackle the complex world of professional wrestling. They look at the birth of WWE, its growth, the Monday Night Wars, and into the Attitude Era. We also look at the problems with the post-Attitude John Cena era, and why we were still interested even though the level of talent was lower. We also look at the new wave of talent taking over WWE, and finally try to explain why we are able to care about wrestling at all.<\/p>\n
