We here in the Cageside community love to talk about the industry we all love so much that we actually have several podcasts that run at various times throughout the week. Some make it to the front page, some get buried in the busy day of thread activity, and some maybe don't get posted at all. In case you forgot, didn't know of, or want to look back on any of them, here I will accumulate the week's shows all in one spot, at the end of every week. I encourage you to bookmark the page as well.
If you have something you would like to share with the rest of us, feel free to provide a link in the comment section for everyone to enjoy.
Vince Russo has certainly made his rounds on the podcast circuit, first showing up in late July on The Steve Austin show (Clean) in a 2 part series. Now he sits down with Jim Ross this week to discuss then, now, and the future of the wrestling business. I wanted to take a second to bring up a "Russo idea" that was brought up on the show. While discussing the Raw show being a 3 hour broadcast, Vince brought up the idea of cutting it down, having one hour of NXT to open, then followed by a two hour Raw. Interesting. Cagesiders, how do you feel about this idea? Thoughts?

Off The Top Rope - Episode 70 - Backlash 2003
In this episode, we talk the WrestleCrap-esque Growing Up Bella feud, the heel turn of Gold and Stardust, and more as we kick off with Raw. Then, we talk the things TNA is doing right, even if they're not that numerous, and the really excellent Jay Lethal-ACH match on Ring of Honor TV lately, although Mike refuses to apologize. We also talk about the plans for the WWE tag division going forward, including whether The Acension and the Realest Guys in the Room should come up as heels or faces. After a break, it's early John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar, a six-man tag Raw worthy, Goldberg's WWE debut, Teddy Long's shoe, and a picture of Kurt Angle with gold medals stapled to it. Clearly important, important stuff as it's Backlash 2003! We name our MVPs and LVPs and then reveal what we're watching for next week, Bash at the Beach 2000. Yeah, it's that one.
