Top 5 Wrestling Podcasts – Apple (June 26, 2024)
1) Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway | +
WWE Hall of Famer Mark Calaway, aka The Undertaker, stands unmatched in the world of pro wrestling podcasts. The Phenom got into the podcasting game in October 2023, and since then, the show has surged to the top of the boards. A reality that doesn’t seem poised to change any time soon.
In the Deadman’s latest episode, he focuses on the The Excellence of Execution, Brett Hart. Together with his co-host, Matt, they discuss what it was like going up against Hart while he was in his prime and how much Calaway learned from working with The Hitman. If you are worried there isn’t enough time for him to cover everything, don’t worry; it’s a two-part episode!
2) Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru | +
This week, the ever-proud provocateur and wrestling legend found himself in two spots on the Top 5 list, first at the #2 position for his Jim Cornette’s Drive-Thru program.

4) Jim Cornette Experience |–
Love or hate him, Jim Cornette doesn’t care what you think. His presence in professional wrestling goes back decades, and he is one of the pioneers in producing weekly content on wrestling commentary.

5) Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard | ~
Rounding out the top 5 this week is the most recent episode of Bruce Prichard’s “Something to Wrestle.”The tell-all show is hosted by Bruce Prichard, who is not only a current WWE executive but also one of the most powerful figures in professional wrestling history.
On this episode of Something To Wrestle, Prichard and co-host pull a Cher and turn back time to discuss The Great American Bash 2004. It quickly becomes apparent that the PPV is NOT something Bruce reflects fondly on.
