The NXT Wrestling Fan


Jan 4, 2021

Thanks to those of you who contributed to our raffle to benefit the Democratic Senate campaigns in Georgia, and specifically to that raffle's winner, David Waters, The NXT Wrestling Fan presents a special bonus episode about vampires, local politics, and the banality of every day existence! That's right, we're talking about the the utterly brilliant FX/Hulu show What We Do In The Shadows, specifically the first two episodes, "Pilot" and "City Council." Highlights include:

  • Bob is introduced to Nandor the Relentless (because he never relents), Laszlo Cravensworth, Nadja, Colin Robinson, Guillermo, and the amazing characters and writing in this show
  • A brief history of the 90s comedy scene in New Zealand
  • All hail the bisexual undead, particularly when they don't have genitals so they just focus on you
  • The perils of attending city council meetings
  • Everybody knows an energy vampire
  • Whether or not it's safe to just assume LARPers are virgins (spoiler: yes, it is)
  • An unusually rich collection of guest stars
  • A special thank you from Bob and Miles

Our theme song is called "Learnbuckle" and it was created by the uniquely talented Rafael Medina, whose work you can and should follow via his Twitter account, @EarthMeauxFaux! You can also follow Miles @mjschneiderman, MeganBob @meganbobness, and the show itself @nxtwrestlingfan, or visit www.nxtwrestlingfan.com. And if you'd like to support the show, check out our Patreon at www.patreon.com/nxtwrestlingfan.
