Description

On this episode of Something To Wrestle, Bruce and Conrad rewind the clock to the 1996 Royal Rumble and pull back the curtain on one of WWE's most fascinating transitional eras. Bruce shares candid stories about working with a notoriously difficult Ultimate Warrior, being turned away by a legendary territory figure, and witnessing Vince McMahon as he was actively shaping the definitive voice and presentation of WWE. Add in plenty of behind-the-scenes insight, unexpected twists, and the usual hijinks from the guys, and you've got another can't-miss edition of Something To Wrestle with Bruce Prichard.
