  • November 14 2008 Bryan and Vinny Show

    It’s the weekend Bryan & Vinny Show~! We’re back tonight to talk no shortage of subjects including a great ECW from Tuesday night, a really fun edition of Ultimate Fighter with the nicest man of all time, and a hit-and-miss episode of Impact with some good wrestling and the usual nonsensical booking. It’s bad enough when things don’t make sense show-to-show, but when things don’t make sense segment-to-segment you have a problem. All of this plus Granny and her new theme song, some wacky songs, and more!
