Kris and David are joined by Scott Passner as we discuss the week that was August 23-29, 1992, a week that Scott requested with a $50 pledge on our Patreon page so he could join us for the WWF section. Topics of discussion include:

SummerSlam ’92 and the build to the Randy Savage vs. Ultimate Warrior match, which was pretty nonsensical until Pat Patterson returned, seemingly salvaging it in the process.
WBF BodyStars getting cancelled, signaling the end of the WBF.
The last show that Dave Meltzer attended on his 2+ week Japan tour.
All sorts of lucha goodness.
USWA and the WWF cement their working agreement with Jimmy Hart’s return to Memphis TV.
Lots of wackiness as usual in the GWF.
Erik Watts making his WCW debut.
Paul E. Dangerously getting featured in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's gossip section.
Cactus Jack interviewing Jake “The Snake” Roberts in a great segment on WCW Saturday Night that seemingly attempts to retcon a year-old storyline.

…and a LOT more, as this ended up being a stacked show.
