It's January 1990. You're happy they've finally stopped playing that dang Christmas song by Band Aid and you are fully jamming to Hangin' Tough by New Kids on the Block. Most Sundays you have to decide between America's Funniest Home Videos or ALF. But, not this Sunday. You were really good and did your chores and washed your grandma's feet so your parents would spring for the Royal Rumble on Pay-Per-View. They even ordered Domino'sand said you can stay up late to finish it! You can't wait to wave your arms at home like a Bushwhacker and you're a little jealous of that kid they always lick. You're excited for the 30-man Royal Rumble match but Hulk Hogan AND The Ultimate Warrior are in it and you can't decide who to cheer for! It's a real-life more panic, are you a Hulkamaniac or are you a Warrior? You took your vitamins and said your prayers, but you also believe you can so you know you're halfway there....Oh well, Grandma can watch Murder, She Wrote in the other room. Thanks for listening!

It's the most wonderful time of the year! It's WrestleMania week, and since Tim and Rich have a real soft spot for the showcase of the immortals, it's time for them to make their predictions, get everything wrong, and have fun while doing it. Sure, they get distracted easily and go off on tangents, but what do you expect when WWE insists on making the show of shows a two-night spectacular? Download and enjoy!

It's April 7, 2014. You've turned off Happy by Pharrell Williams so you can sit down for the next four hours and watch WrestleMania from the SuperDome, not the SilverDome (Looking at you Hulk Hogan). You have on your Obama-esque "YES!" shirt. Everything seems normal and routine. They parade out last generation's superstars. They wheel out the new members of the Hall of Fame. But, this is New Orleans, there's dark forces, mystery and a laissez-faire approach to things. Something seems off. It's time to see the Undertaker come out and renew the ritual of defeating an opponent. He's struggled the last few years. He hasn't looked as fast, he's been looking vulnerable. This year, he's facing Brock Lesnar who has been unstoppable. Your brain is telling you it makes no sense for The Undertaker to win, but your heart...your heart tells you that he just can't lose. He's unbeatable at WrestleMania. He's 21-0 for goodness sake. But, to quote Paul Heyman, "Maybe...?" It's ok, it's Yes-leMania! Daniel Bryan will carry the day! Boy, Bray Wyatt is scary and that song is a jam...
