I like the show, I really like the old stories, but the ad placement is ridiculous, so bad to the point I cannot listen

Bruce Prichard cannot tell the truth to save his life. He is a pathological liar.

Enjoy

As a fan of professional wrestling since the 1970’s, I find Something to Wrestle with…… Bruce Prichard the most entertaining podcast I’ve ever heard, period. Bruce and Conrad are entertaining, and I learn something new about my favorite topic each time I listen. The nostalgia is great and presented with humor, from Bruce’s perspective that only he can deliver. No rumors and innuendo here!

I have spent many hours listening and enjoying this podcast. It’s a must listen too. 5 stars

The ad placement seems to have leveled off, making for a better product. I thought Conrad was going heel for a while. This pod (among others) is Perfect for lapsed wrestling fans who can’t get enough of old school stories about “the good ole days” of wrestling.

Grown up watching wrestling it is great to go back

Bruce is surprisingly funny, but also has amazing knowledge of the pro wrestling business. Conrad is similarly likable, and his research is exhaustive on every topic covered. If you’re a long time WWE or pro wrestling fan, I don’t see how you could not enjoy this show!

Bruce says “I don’t know” to most of Conrad’s questions or comments! He literally adds nothing to the commentary. His attitude is like he doesn’t even want to be there? I won’t be listening anymore!

I heard Bruce Prichard on Stone Cold’s podcast all the way back in either late 2016 or early 2017, it’s been too long to remember. He plugged his new-ish podcast, and considering I was working nights as a housekeeper, I needed more content, so I gave it a try. Something to Wrestle quickly became my favorite podcast, and something I looked forward to each and every week. The wealth of stories Bruce had, as well as his *usually* good natured spats with Conrad, were can’t miss listening. Soon it was my go to for road trips, doing the dishes, etc. I’ve learned so many things about my favorite wrestlers, and learned so much about the business from this podcast. As much as Bruce wants to share, anyway! So why not 5 stars? Before I say anything negative, BLESS Conrad and Bruce both for continuing to put out this show as often as reasonably possible. When you consider that Conrad is now the undisputed “Podfather” and Bruce is working for one of the most successful companies (not just wrestling company) in the world, it’s really remarkable that this show has continued. The magic is waning, unfortunately. Conrad sounds rushed, or disinterested, quite a bit. Bruce has always had some “cranky” streaks, but his energy has understandably changed over the past few years as well. Go listen to a recent show, and then the Radicalz or Brian Pillman episode to see what I mean. In fact, DO go listen to those episodes. Listen to them all. It was my favorite podcast, and it’s still a fine one. Bruce, Conrad, if either of you read this: Thank you. You two were unknowingly there as I went from a housekeeper to a Sterile Processing Lead. You were the soundtrack to many road trips. You’ve given me so many laughs and even a few tears! You guys rock, don’t let that magic slip.

Bruce and conrad flair

This podcast answers all the questions for fans of the golden era of wrestling in the 1980s and 90s. It’s by far the best podcast that Conrad Thompson does.

Hated that boring character when I was 13. Quit watching big time wrestling after WM V because ya didn't get chics in high school if ya did. Truely enjoy listening to Bruce lay it down and sick of "roll tide" (at episode 64).

Both compliment each other very well, I love the nostalgic stories & behind-the-scene perspective Bruce provides. Looking forward to more great episodes.

I enjoy the content, but the variance in volume between Conrad’s muffled voice and Tony’s (seeming) lips to the mic blurting shouts makes it legitimately difficult to listen to the show. I’m not willing to adjust volume between the two, and tend to shut the show off after about five minutes of Tony’s loud eruptions.

This is still the best chemistry in Connies Arsenal, yes the ads, yes the missing weeks, yes the megasodes, I know I know but when they’re on they are still on. It’ll never be what it used to be but to me it’s still better than a majority of adfreeshows other pods. I say the top 3 right now is Foley is Pod, STW, and My World.

Even without Bruce still very very enjoyable

Something to Wrestle With is like the perfect companion piece to the WWE network. I step away from each episode wanting to revisit the matches and moments discussed in this insightful podcast. Even topics I was less familiar with have interested me. ******Update 11/2021 The ads are out of control with content at a level that no longer warrants it. I appreciate the effort in keeping the show consistent — However I wonder if less episodes with more dedicated time could be a solution? Unfortunately it is just no longer a 5-star listen for me after being a must-listen for so long. :-(

Use to be a five star show. Great conversations about wrestling and stories. Now Bruce is afraid to say anything, defends a man who abused power to sleep with woman, and almost never does a show. Add in half the show is ads for another guy who raped a woman on a plane.

I’ve listened since episode 15. Huge fan of hearing old wrestling stories. Paul Bromwell really isn’t that bad. He’s growing on me

Awesome stories of wrestling past

Content is great, unfortunately there are so many commercials, you’ll be listening to an ad read for most of your listening experience. I don’t blame them for trying to make money, but they crossed into a parody of an infomercial. They clearly stopped caring about the listeners. I will go out of my way to not support any advertisers of this show due to the egregious breaks.

In the beginning it was great. They said the show wouldn’t change when Bruce went back to wwe . But they watered it down so much it’s too soaked to be any good again. That’s what happens when your Vince’s “Yes man”. Wonder what’s going to happen to Bruce and Kevin Dunn since HHH and Stephanie are in charge now . Everyone knows that HHH and Stephanie don’t like Bruce and Kevin Dunn at all . Something To wrestle is complete garbage now . 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Not trying to be “that guy” but come on Conrad, its pretty telling that this podcast had a perfect five stars in June when I followed after years of success and a month after he goes back to WWE you’re at 4.6, I’m fine with the ads but enough with the megasodes. If he’s done just be forth coming about it.

Bruce’s availability hit or miss on recent episodes but 300 + episodes from the past are highly entertaining. My favorite podcast.

Months go by until they have new show use to be great now just mega shows

👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Foley Is POD is a blessing in disguise, Why don’t you replace this show with the vastly superior “Foley Is POD”? I strongly believe “Something To Wrestle” has run its course and if Bruce doesn’t want to make an effort then just end the show. Rehashing old content with “Megasodes” isn’t worth my time to listen when you have vastly superior shows like “83 Weeks”, WHW Monday and The “Kurt Angle” Show.

Got tired of waiting for new shows so I had to unfollow.

‘Megasode’ every episode is full of f’ng adds.

I went back and started from the beginning and I’m hooked. I love the stories and the impressions and the way that Bruce is just “real” with his explanation of what really happened. I’m glad I found this and I’m not going anywhere.

Does Bruce even have the time to do new episodes ?

My god boys how about some new content???

The ads. My goodness, the ads.

So did I miss something or was there a cut or edit in the past week’s episode. I was listening and it just cut to elevator music that sounded like “we’re going to make it after all.”

Best of the best! I enjoy listening to and look forward to each weeks broadcast. The Pat Patterson episode is the funniest of em all. This is my favorite of all the wrestling podcasts. Those complaining that Conrad or Bruce aren’t producing new content have never worked a 80hr work week. Bruce and Conrad rock!

I’m just going to check monthly or so to see if there’s something new instead of having weekly dumps of “remix,” episodes, “megasodes,” (3 previous podcasts or more in one download), or podcasts that have nothing to do with Bruce. Stop it.

Conrad is so incredibly greedy. He ruined this podcast with his greed, just like he ruins everything else he touches. A bad podcast & a worse individual.

I've been a wrestling fan all of my life. I'm a 90s kid and grew up right in the middle of the attitude era, which to me is the best era of wrestling. Bruce obviously has insight that few others have and his stories are always entertaining. I find myself getting lost in this podcast. He's also hilarious and his impressions are spot on. Definitely worth subscribing to if you like wrestling at all. Conrad does a fantastic job as well. Thanks Bruce and Connie for what you do and giving us fans an awesome show

I genuinely enjoy listening to this podcast, only knock id say is I don’t like how they’ll post a “new episode” even though it’s a recycled episode, I’ve listened to an episode more then once so that’s not a problem but don’t repost it as a new one, other than that Bruce’s impressions alone are worth a listen.

Former boss introduced me, been hooked ever since! Grew up watching the moments discuss on the show and love reliving a lot of it. Hearing Bruce’s insight on the times I remembered as a young fan drew me in, but the hilarity of Bruce, well.. being Bruce is what kept me listening since 2016. I know Bruce is a busy guy and love being able to hear fresh content when he’s not working 22 hours a day for WWE. Yeah I know, it’s really 23.

Used to be great— it’s not so good anymore since Bruce went back to the WWE. I don’t usually listen to the new episodes because I’ve been disappointed by the quality whenever I have. However, the archive of the first 100 or so shows is great. I often go back and listen to the episodes from 2016-2018. I can’t blame them for keeping the show going if sponsors keep paying them but the quality is definitely not what it used to be.

I will give 5 stars because I binge all the old episodes but please just don't do a podcast if Paul has to take Conrad's spot. I'd rather just a mega episode or go back to listen to old classics. Anything but Paul

Extremely happy I found this podcast. I’ve binged multiple episodes the last few weeks.

It’s a shame all that show gets in the way of Conrad’s Ads.

I used to binge listen to every episode, all throughout the day at work. The ads were cool at first. On the spot and hilarious. Now the ads have just ruined the show. Not to mention Bruce hasn’t been the same since returning to WWE.

All good things must come to a close.

This used to be the greatest wrestling podcast ever and it has sadly fallen from the top. Once Bruce got rehired by WWE we knew it wouldn’t be the same and it definitely hasn’t. 1 new episode in 2 months is ridiculous. And half the episode is ads. We get you need to make money but come on man. As much as we don’t want Bruce to get fired again, I think that’s the only way this pod gets back to the top.

Megasodes are channel changer jones…remove download, mark as played…already heard these episodes the first time they were on. Hope next week brings us an episode with new content, but not Paul. That will cause me to unsubscribe.
