About this episode
The Lapsed Fan podcast is back with yet another deep dive, this time on the 1993 WWF Survivor Series – the night of multiple Doinks, multiple twists and turns, and multiple fails. Join co-chairmen Jack Encarnacao and JP Sarro as they dissect a zany but interesting pay-per-view event that came in the throes of the World Wrestling Federation feeling the heat of a steroid distribution indictment and other industry turmoil. The show touches on, among many, many other things: - Lex Luger, in a classic Americana sweater, and family wish you a Happy Thanksgiving by a warm fire - A true tour de force of quips and jokes from Bobby Heenan, in his last great stand as a WWF color commentator - Heenan calls Ludvig Borga “The Wrestler of the 90s,” but that wasn’t intended as comedy - Memories of Undertaker revealing the American flag colors in the lining of his trench coat as he joins the All Americans, and unanswered questions about what exactly happened to Tatanka - Yokozuna on Conan O’Brien - The seed is planted for Owen turning on Bret, and sadness over the fact that modern WWE performers so rarely get so much out of doing so little. A eulogy for subtlety in wrestling. - The pain of four Doinks - The Smoky Mountain tag titles are on the line in a high-stakes battle Join as TLF gives that trademark treatment to yet another WWE Network archive gem, the 1993 Survivor Series.
