Episode #73 of the Close Encounters of the Nerd Kind podcast finds Tee-J, Dan and Imran returning to the always riveting world of pro-wrestling.  One of the most compelling aspects of the sport is the fact that it exists within its own self contained world and its greatest moments, matches and superstars are often born by a set of serendipitous circumstances created by luck, timing and opportunity. 

While names like Roman Reigns, Hulk Hogan and The Rock were pegged for tremendous success at the outset of their careers, names like Stone Cold Steve Austin and John Cena only found their fame by circumstances that positioned them in the right place and the right time.

But for every Cinderella story, there's one about opportunities that others lost so today's episode looks at the good and the bad as we sidestep the preordained 'what is meant to be will be' fates of our heroes and ponder the question... "what if?"

What If... Cody Rhodes never left the WWE? What If... Hulk Hogan never became the face of the business?  What If... CM Punk had stayed also?

TOP MARKS WRESTLING PODCAST - Episode 1: Smells Like Tween Spirit

We are three geeks stuck in the world of 80s and 90s nerd culture (and sometimes here and now) looking at cartoons, movies, music, TV, toys, conspiracies. Asking 'Are there too many reboots or not enough?' 'Can bands release music after a key member dies?' 'What is the best 80s cartoon or toy?' All this and much more!
