The Four Horsemen. The NWO. The Bloodline. The Dangerous Alliance. During the past few decades, the “faction” has become a key word in the presentation of pro wrestling – every promotion seems to have a group of key wrestlers that joins up to wreak havoc. Today, it seems like factions are everywhere – several in every organization – but has the concept run its course? Join former Pro Wrestling Illustrated managing editor Bob Smith and journalist Joe Puccio (Generation X-Wire.com) for the latest Outdated Wrestling Hour podcast, where the veteran duo discuss the constant interfering and match meddling of modern times. Plus: Smith and Puccio look at the current state of both the WWE and AEW of television – and how recent events recall the classic wrestling wars featuring WWE and the NWA/WCW. Old times seem to be blending with new stars in today’s mat world!
