We continue our journey through 1989 as we cover an entire month's worth of NWA TV and dirt sheet news, featuring the return of Ricky Steamboat, the war of words between Paul E & Cornette, angles galore, and we learn if Freebirds can fly. Plus, we debut several new features including Audio Clips, the VIP Jobber of the Month award, WMG's NWA Top 10, and co-host Steve Eckstat goes all philosophical on us as we talk Magnum as an announcer, a potential Butch Reed face turn, what if Sting had gone to the WWF, and so much more.
