About this episode
On this episode of What Happened When, Tony and Conrad are delivering some WHWMonday Patreon magic with a double dose of WrestleMania action! This BONUS SHOW topic comes from LKBH Travis Carter of Louisville, who wrote: "...Wrestlemania 8, specifically the Savage/Flair and Hogan/Sid double main events. I am originally from Bloomington IN and was lucky enough to have attended WM 8 as a high school senior. A carload of buddies and I got tickets mostly to see the Nature Boy live and were disappointed when we got there and saw our seats were obstructed by the scaffolding that held up the video boards. So myself and 2 other guys noticed 3 great seats that were not being used and sat there the whole show.

After graduating from seminary, Kurt & Chris went overseas to mainland China for a two-year multi-cultural mission and I accepted my first pastoral position at a local church in central Florida. When the first promo for Wrestlemania 21 aired announcing WM21 would be in Los Angeles, I immediately thought about Kurt & Chris. They were scheduled to return from their extended trip to China right before WM21. We all agreed that we would reunite at WM21. So going into WM21 I was primed for a change and there was nobody I was more invested in as a fan than Batista. He is the only wrestler I can remember following from the very beginning of his career until the very top of his career..."
