How do you fight a Drunk, angry giant who doesn't want to work with you? That's what we are talking about this week on Drunk Wrestling History.

This week on Drunk Wrestling History we are going back to 1987 for the first annual Survivor Series.

There's lots of crazy stuff in it some hilarious stuff too. Have a drink with us and check it out. Cheers!

There's also more body function talk in the beginning of the episode so if you don't want to hear that skip the first 16 mi...
