The boys are back with a big Episode 3 and this time they’re joined by first-time podcaster Keith Hughes for a wild, angle-packed look at June 1985 on the road to the first ever Great American Bash!

This episode is loaded with classic storytelling, heated rivalries, and over-the-top characters that only Jim Crockett Promotions can deliver. The crew breaks down:

• The fiery continuation of the build to Magnum T.A. vs. Ric Flair, while Flair vs. Nikita Koloff begins to simmer—with David Crockett jumping into the chaos!

• The unforgettable debut of the Boogie Kid, more Paul Jones insanity (with a bold Bobby Heenan comparison), and a wild build to the Tully Blanchard vs. Dusty Rhodes barbed wire cage match—featuring Jimmy Valiant’s prostitute, because of course.

• A surprising title change, two big tag team debuts, and a sad goodbye to a key roster member.

• Long-awaited appearances by both the Mid-Atlantic and Junior Heavyweight Champions, including a great Dr. G Denny Brown backstage story.

• A hilarious “stroke-out moment” from Shawn on Brett Sawyer (or was it Bart?)—with one of them really upset about a body part.

• Plus: Manny Fernandez karate poses, ’80s goofiness at its best, and a full five weeks of wild NWA TV—all building to Bash season.

It’s 6:05 somewhere—so settle in for another deep dive into the magic and madness of mid-‘80s Crockett in this can’t-miss episode of NWA Crock & Roll!

On this episode of the Hands of Z, the .5 series continues as this episode is all about "What About Bob?" Shawn and Keith watch two matches, once centered on Bob Backlund and one with Bob Armstrong!

Backlund defends the WWF Title against Sgt. Slaughter from MSG 10/22/83 and Bob Armstrong challenges Tully Blanchard for the NWA TV Title from April 1987!
