Here is a just a sample of what you fans can hear in Mike's hour+ interview/shoot on the show, provided by The Mayhem's host, John "The Big Mosh" Masiulionis:




Former WWE & ECW superstar, Mike Bucci, stepped into The Mayhem squared circle for a look back on his career & preview his newest venture, www.LoanHelpNow247.com. The former "Nova" & "Simon Dean" reunited with his former "extreme" colleague, Jim Molineaux, for the first time in many years, and Mike gave his thoughts on his respective transitions from an ECW wrestler to WWE superstar & from WWE superstar to his position within the offices of World Wrestling Entertainment. Plenty of topics were covered with The Mayhem Crew (Mosh, Blade, & Jim Molineaux) & Bucci himself, including Mike's answers to the following questions/topics:

*What are his thoughts/takes now on the talents he helped sign that have achieved WWE superstar status?

*How the internet has helped talent get hired...and fired

*Does the McMahon family get too much slack?

*Why Triple H is "the best in the world today"

*What are his takes on the WWE Wellness Policy, and does he think it has improved over the past year?

*Why Floyd Mayweather in the WWE worked better than Adam "Pacman" Jones in TNA

*Why "Wildcat" Chris Harris did not translate well as "Braden Walker" in World Wrestling Entertainment

*Why does Teddy Hart owe him $300? Did Teddy do what it took to make it in the WWE, and does he have what it takes to return?

*The inside lowdown on the weekend when Mike Awesome gave his notice to ECW, and the build-up to the now infamous Tazz vs. Mike Awesome ECW Championship Match in Indianapolis, IN

*Why the business of today cannot & will never be able to re-duplicate the energy & mystique of the original ECW

*The reason why he will never wrestle full-time again

*Why he thinks it was vital & very important for the Senate/House Of Representatives to pass the $700 bailout package

All of this & so much more! All true Extreme Championship Wrestling fans need to check out & tune into this interview, with two true "extreme" originals, courtesy of Monday Night Mayhem!

"Your Home Of Wrestling Radio" also closed out the month of September with the most in-depth preview of WWE's No Mercy PPV (presented by The History Of WWE.com), as Mosh & Blade were joined by The Mayhem's WWE PPV Preview Tandem of Scott Hudson, Jim Molineaux, & Graham Cawthon to not only set the table for World Wrestling Entertainment's return to Portland, but gear up fans around the world for the debut of Smackdown on MyNetworkTV.

And if that isn't enough Mayhem for you, Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Dan Murphy joined the show to discuss the first-ever "PWI Female Top 50" magazine! And Mosh & Blade discussed Rey Mysterio's reported re-signing with the WWE, as well as the latest remarks from Kurt Angle in The UK Sun & why TNA will be using this "billboard" material for iMPACT leading into Bound For Glory.

Not enough Mosh & Blade? How about the first of two additional bonus editions of The Mayhem! The Big Mosh was joined once again by Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Dan Murphy for a special interview, courtesy of "Your Home Of Wrestling Radio." Fresh off the 2008 Ted Petty Invitational, former WWE/WCW superstar, Dave Taylor, stepped into The Mayhem squared circle! The "squire" gave his thoughts on his WWE release (and when he knew "the writing was on the wall" for him), his teaming up with William Regal & Finlay in WCW/WWE (and why he believes that both are very popular with the WWE audience today), his initial feelings of heading into the Armageddon 2006 Ladder Match (vs. MNM, Brian Kendrick/Paul London, and The Hardy Boyz) & if he feels himself/Regal surprised the office/fans with their performance, & the evolution of tag team wrestling over the past 15 years/if he believes that it is "an afterthought" today. Plus, Dave discussed his run in World Championship Wrestling & whether "the inmates were running the asylum," why he does not feel that TNA is competition to the WWE, & why fans in the United States will be seeing more of him in the months to come.
