We talk Pastamania, the Cruiserweights, how not to get someone over, what's bigger - Scott Norton's barrel chest or an actual barrel, and more. Then, we talk MVP and LVP, reveal which show won our Listener's Choice ballot after almost 50 votes, WCW Spring Stampede 1999, and say goodbye for the week.
