  • WCNN Presents... A Tribute to Steve Casey (Dane)
    Dec 28 2020

    We return once again with another episode of WCNN. This time we take a look back at the wrestling career of Steve Sasser, better known in wrestling circles as Steve Casey/Steven Dane.

    We discuss our time covering Sasser's time as Steve Casey in the NWA during 1989, as well as memories of his later years as Steve Dane in the USWA Dallas and GWF promotions on ESPN. Sasser, as Steve Dane, would go on to compete against Chaz Taylor in the first, and hopefully ONLY, Bungee Cord match in 1992.

    RIP Steve Sasser, thank you for the childhood memories. Rest well.

  • WCNN Presents... A Tribute to Pat Patterson
    Dec 22 2020

    The term legend is often thrown around but in the case of Pat Patterson the moniker couldn't be more fitting. After setting the west coast on fire for more than a decade on top in singles and as a member of the famed Blonde Bombers tag team with Ray "Crippler" Stevens, Pat made the trip back east to New York to headline MSG against World Champion Bob Backlund and become the first-ever WWF Intercontinental Champion. In the 1980s, Pat would transition from an in-ring competitor to a jack of all trades behind the scenes, even creating the Royal Rumble match! No matter how you remember him, Pat did things... his way. RIP Pat!

  • WCNN Presents... A Wild-Eyed Tribute To Tracy Smothers
    Dec 14 2020

    It's another sad day in professional wrestling as we here at WrestleCopia take a look back at both the pro wrestler and the human being Tracy Smothers. Host Ray Russell begins the show with a look back at the career of the Wild-Eyed Southern Boy turned FBI member. Co-host Steve Eckstat then chimes in with his memories of Tracy's time in both SMW and the ECW. Ray then closes the show with his personal memories of his time spent with Tracy, sharing some touching stories that detail just how great of a human Smothers really was. Rather than mourn the loss, we decided to celebrate the life of the T.H.U.G., because nobody did it quite like Tracy Smothers!

    RIP Tracy, we'll miss you, my friend.

  • WCNN Presents... A Tribute to Road Warrior Animal
    Sep 24 2020

    It’s with a heavy heart that we’ve learned of the passing of another tremendous performer, and individual. Whether you knew him as a member of the WWF’s Legion of Doom or the many years he spent as part of the Road Warriors tag team with partner Hawk, Animal will not be forgotten.

    In this very special edition of WCNN, we take a semi-brief look at the wrestling career of Joe Laurinaitis before we pay our respects and celebrate his life by sharing some of our fond memories of the Road Warriors tag team from our youth.

    We close the show with one final “What a Rush” in a piece of music we hope you’ll all enjoy.

    We've also added to Twitter (@RasslnGrenade) a bunch of great images of Animal from his time as a singles competitor and his time as one half of the greatest tag team in the history of the business, The Road Warriors.

    RIP Road Warrior Animal... Thank You!
