“That is a hopeless task, And YOU…are a moron.”
There have been many characters talked about, and showcased, over the course of our 7+ year run on the DEADLOCK Podcast. It’s rare nowadays that we run into someone that we at least have not heard of one time, but on this episode of WWF Sunday Night Heat from March 25th, 2001, we are introduced to the man known as…George The Germ.
For weeks, George has been trying to find himself on this show. He wanted to be a rapper, he wanted to be a ninja, and now he wants to be HARDCORE. What better way to try to learn what being a hardcore wrestler is all about than to try to be under the wing of the current WWF Hardcore Champion, Raven? Raven wants nothing to do with The Germ, especially when in a week, he’ll have to face The Big Show & Kane in a Triple Threat match at Wrestlemania X7. But, Raven drags George around all night, putting him through different tests to see just how HARDCORE he truly can be.
Yes, you didn’t read that wrong. Arguably the biggest Wrestlemania of all time is just a week away, and Raven is trying to teach George The Germ how to be hardcore. Things are looking up for Raven, and this show in general. In-between these segments, we do get a lot of hype for the upcoming Wrestlemania show, especially when it comes to Stone Cold Steve Austin taking on The Rock. Long are the days of either of these ever coming close to stepping foot on this show.
We do get some matches, as well, if you can believe it! Crash Holly defends his WWF Light Heavyweight Championship, that he just won last week with the help of Molly Holly, against the former champion, Dean Malenko’s, friend & tag partner, Perry Saturn. Test, the WWF European Champion, steps in the ring to do battle against Haku, in a match where the biggest part of it is how many times we see WWF New York. The Hardy Boyz take on Kaientai in a tag team match, and technically, our main event is Raven…versus George The Germ!
All of that, and so much more, on this edition of the DEADLOCK Podcast!
