Because WCW

The podcast where the big boys play. The greatest podcast in the history of this great sport. Look at the adjective: podcast. Hosted by @liamhappe & @deanayass.

Hello! Long time... how are we all?

Just to let you know that the back catalogue of 100+ episodes should now be primarily available via Acast and Apple Podcasts, with our time being hosted on Podbean coming to an end this month.

Any problems listening back, let us know!

Question: How many within the pro wrestling industry itself - no matter what your role is - listened to Because WCW?

We know of a few, but just curious to see how many others enjoyed our 100+ episode retro run.

Just got off the phone w/@GaryCappetta. Thinking about doing limited dates as "The Voices of WCW" Q&A & Meet & Greet. Let me know if this is something you twitter peeps would be interested in. Lot's of great stories covering the entire life of WCW between us. TIA!

[Because WCW @becausewcw]

Wrestling fans should be made to watch WCW circa 1993-1995 or 1999-2000 before being allowed to actually claim any current wrestling is "just like" it. That'd stop that whimsical trend in a hurry.

Want to hear about our 2nd insane prize in our raffle at The Big TakeOver at @BoxparkWembley before #AEWAllIn?

How about a 30 minute, one on one conversation about all things wrestling with one ERIC BISCHOFF!

Talk about the opportunity of a lifetime.

Who wants to win this?

[Because WCW @becausewcw]

A low-key GREAT moment in WCW history!

#OnThisDay in 1999: WCW Nitro: The West Texas Rednecks give a live performance.

Hennig gets big pops & pyro when he asks how many rednecks, good old boys, and how many people hate rap. Barry Windham is playing air drums

[Liam Happe @liamhappe]

This reminds me of when I brought a VHS of Halloween Havoc 1990 in to my secondary school class and everyone was going nuts for the Steiners vs the Nasty Boys

[Dean Ayass 🇱🇧 @DeanAyass]

Been signed off for another month from the day job. Still getting headaches literally every single day. Having MRI brain scan next Fri. Therefore I'm still out of action for @becausewcw, @HOWrestlingUK & @HammerlockUK for the time being 😔. <big sigh>

[WCWNitroBook @WCWNitroBook]

To readers in the UK who have waited patiently for the NEW, Expanded, Hardcover edition of NITRO...we have an INSANE deal for you!

DM for details! 🇬🇧

And all those empty seats!

The end was near at this stage 😭

Dusty Rhodes giving Jeff Jarrett and Ric Flair the stinkface while Guy Fieri distracts Charles Robinson.

[Because WCW @becausewcw]

So!

Hopes of a return to regular episodes may have been premature, for now.

Dean @DeanAyass remains hamstrung by constant migraines and medical progress is proving frustrating.

Get well soon, Twisted Genius!

[WCWNitroBook @WCWNitroBook]

Just 300 followers to go...then we'll drop this entire, very mysterious event!

It occurred in October 1997 but has been lost to wrestling lore.

Can we get to 5000 followers before tomorrow night?

No, @DeanAyass nor @liamhappe were in jail, but a seven-month podcast hiatus ends with a special 'Mount Rushmore' discussion episode!

Who are your 4 picks for each category...?

[Because WCW @becausewcw]

Hello, everyone!

We suppose it's been a while since we've posted an update on the podcast and the current hiatus.

Would ya like one..?

[Deep Cuts - Wrestling Stories in 60 Seconds! @DeepCutsWCW]

I adore this WCW Worldwide commercial that used to air on TV in England.

Between the drums and the voiceover, it sounds like a National Geographic special. And they use the word “razzamatazz”!
