Listen "Big Boss Man Vs. Hulk Hogan in a Steel Cage"
Episode Synopsis
🎙️ The Bubba Cast: Saturday Night’s Main Event – May 27th, 1989
Sup, Bubba?! We're heading back to Memorial Day weekend 1989, baby—and the Boss Man is in a cage, Hogan’s flexin’, and Zeus just crash-landed into the WWF like a freight train from Hollywood. In this week’s episode, Lacy and Zerpie dig deep into this absolute fever dream of a Saturday Night’s Main Event, taped in the soy bean capital of the world—Des Moines, Iowa. (Shout out to Jesse Ventura for that culinary insight.)
We break down:
Hulk Hogan vs Big Boss Man in a steel cage—with handcuffs, chains, blading, and a surprise run-in from Zeus himself (a.k.a. Deebo!)
Rick Rude’s Intercontinental title defense against crown-wearing 2x4-wielding Jim Duggan
The Brain Busters (Tully & Arn!) taking on Demolition in a BDSM-themed tornado of a tag match
Macho Man, Sensational Sherri, and the ongoing post-Elizabeth madness
A guest appearance from Jimmy Snuka, Boris Zhukov's terrible national anthem, and more!
Expect chaotic commentary, iconic promos, questionable fashion choices, and plenty of WTF moments—including why Boss Man may or may not be using duct tape as wrist tape.
So dust off that VCR, cue up the blue steel cage, and get ready for a nostalgic deep dive into one of the wildest episodes of WWF TV this side of No Holds Barred.
LET’S GO, BUBBA.
