The summer of 2002 in WWE was one of the last great summers in the company’s history. You had the company changing its name to WWE, Steve Austin’s walkout, ruthless aggression, Eric Bischoff debuting, the rise of Brock Lesnar, HBK returning to wrestling, the Smackdown six, Rock leaving full time for Hollywood, John Cena’s debut, Rey Misterio’s debut, just so much great stuff happened that summer. No, I don’t even compare it to the summer of Punk either.

I thought I was actually going to get one episode of a Conrad Thompson podcast without hearing him say all of the sudden. Then at the very end he says it. It drives me crazy hearing him say that
In Major League baseball if a player gets a 5 year 15 million dollar contract, and they get released, they still have to get all that money. WWE should be like that. Now I know they wouldn't voluntarily do that but that's how it should be. The wrestlers can't leave their contract unless WWE says so if WWE signs them that deal they should have to pay them that money no matter what.
@Gator Nation 15 Do you not realize WWE let JR go and he was setting home unemployed very unhappy? When AEW put JR back in the game and made him happy. Stop acting like JR working for AEW is as terrible as the Gators football program. Can you say bottom of the SEC? That’s where the Gators reside.
@@redneckdickjohnsonRHEC LOL, another snowflake AEW fan. Just can't tolerate another person have a differing opinion. Go melt in someone else's comments.
I agree. He knows better. Got fat ass mark conrad sucking tony off every week on every podcast now. Try dutch mantels podcast. Or k100. Dudes are honest.
I don't like jr talking about dying like that my grandpa did the same thing a couple years before he died and I know we all are going to meet our maker one day but we don't need to hurry it along
all of this flub and filter leading into the show is too long. JR is who we want to hear here. Conrad get it together, you are making the show a little less enjoyable

Love when JR goes on a tangent about his kids or family. It’s like listening to the grandpa I never had.

Another great episode of Gilling JR!
Meltzer is not a good source lol.
that would of been good
To this day this is still the single best wrestling pay per view that I've ever seen!
JR signed Babe Ruth, George Washington, and the Beatles.
Rey Mysterio's WWE ppv debut against Kurt Angle and the Triple H/HBK Street Fight stole the show at SummerSlam 2002!
HBK's return and performance was easily the best part of Summerslam!
I was there
Long island was crazy that night 👍👍
Glad jr is putting that blue chew to work now, feel so bad for him sometimes happy he's no longer miserable
What he went thru is an absolute nightmare...I couldn't imagine loosing a spouse...
Only miserable when Paul hosts the show.
I tried with Paul...I can't...the tone of his voice grates my nerves...
I was at the Smackdown that Stephanie was named.
The night the ruthless aggression Era kicked off! In my professional opinion. #ruthlessaggression
I agree. This was the rocket ship that started it. However I feel like it started immediately after wm18
Welcome back Conrad speaking for us fans if u can't do the show we will wait thanks in advance .
What's the point of commercial free when we have to listen to Conrad give advertisements every 15 minutes
Wow Conrad. What a change up.

when are doing the shawn miichaels 2002 -2010 that you said you do couple years ago
Forgot the r in Grilling 😂
When does the actual episode start
I signed him

Was this the last good push for Test? Why didn’t they let him win?
Best summerslam then 2005 2nd
Shut up
Burn herbs and enjoy the show, never a disappointment
I thought Hogan wanted to beat Lesnar after that match but was denied. So he got pissed and went home
Hi JR 👍🙏
11:30 well that hasn’t aged well
Love the show JR
Get well pls focus on yur self nd get better
Nd like Conrad said mute the m’fers
Omega, all time list?!... SMH.
I feel so bad that JR has to stroke AEW and Omega. He deserves so much better.

@@redneckdickjohnsonRHEC JR knows AEW sucks. You can hear it in his commentary.
@@StraightEdgeJunkie jR will tell you he is more happier now than ever before. You must be a wwe suc boy.

Was it just me or did JR seem drunk?
