Sup, Bubba?!

On this episode of The Bubba Cast, Zerpie and Lacy fire up the time machine and head back to the electric chaos of Saturday Night's Main Event in this throwback-heavy episode. The spotlight’s on a brewing storm in the old-school WWF universe, where family ties and wrestling heat collide in the best kind of way.

Lacy opens up about a storyline-in-the-making involving her dad—the one and only Big Boss Man—and the ever-mouthy Bobby “The Brain” Heenan. Heenan’s been running wild on the mic, disrespecting not only the Boss Man but also Lacy’s grandma… and let’s just say, the matriarch’s not the type to let that slide forever.

While the purse-swinging smackdown is still simmering in the background, this episode sets the stage for what could be one of the most legendary confrontations in Bubba Cast lore. It’s family pride, old-school shade, and the kind of storytelling that makes wrestling fans’ hearts thump like entrance music in a packed arena.

It’s a spring break brawl at Club La Vela on this week’s Bubba Cast! The nWo hits the ring in full force—minus Randy Savage and Elizabeth—while Hogan brags, Nash cruises, and Bischoff sweats through the chaos. Savage reappears with fire in his voice and a warning for the Hulkster. Meanwhile, Goldberg crushes Lodi in under a minute, Raven and Benoit bring gritty violence in a Raven’s Rules classic, and Scott Steiner and Ray Traylor take their fight into the pool (literally). We’ve got Nitro Girls in green, insider signs, and a whole lot of 1998 weirdness. DIG IT!
