@@deepblue8143 No. This episode was really bad. Bruce is rambling and getting way too into the weeds. I'm sure at various points in this session, Bruce lost track of who the show was about (Tatanka). As far as Bruce spouting his conversative views- we people of color kinda already know Bruce and the WWE gang are staunch conversatives, and we know that wrestling in general comes with a documented racist and sexist past, but please stop telling 40% of your listening audience to "get over" the racist and awful moments where the WWE depicted people of color in awful ways. We sorta just let it go now because there is a love there for pro wrestling. But don't lose us altogether by starting to justify the WWEs moments of bigotry. Just say yes, it happened, we were wrong, and now we know better, and move on. Conrad is very brave to put these tough issues out there. I appreciate that. I would have been double upset if Conrad started ignoring these issues of race and bigotry. Good job Conrad. Do better Bruce.

Ludvig Borga injured Tatanka’s ribs, then Yokozuna gave him a banzaii drop onto his ribs after that match a few weeks before Survivor Series 1993. Tatanka was out of Survivor Series because of the injury so Undertaker replaced Tatanka on Lex Lugers Survivor Series team.

@@IronDiva 3 days after the Summerslam 1995 a woman from Anaheim went to the cops claiming that the WWF announcing Wrestlemania 12 to take place there triggered some bad memories. According to her she got raped and tortured by a bunch of WWF wrestlers on December 29, 1994 and named Jimmy Del Rey and Tatanka specifically. Tatanka got suspended for 6 months, Del Rey was already fired long before. Is Tatanka innocent? Nobody knows for sure. Nash claims he is, but Nash is a unreliable lying drunk. Everybody agrees that Del Rey did something because he was a known rapist (using GHB on girls and all that) Nothing else came out of the story due to a lack of evidence though.
