Parts Unknown

Join ‘Mene Gene’ Ben Green and ‘Hollywood’ John Ashdown from the (far more popular) Football Weekly podcast and venture to Parts Unknown!

Your dynamic duo will share some of their favourite wrasslin’ moments from classic era WCW and early Hulkamania through to Bret Hart, Austin and Hell in a Cell to the hodgepodge of present day, PG-friendly WWE.

They’ll reminisce about gimmicks gone and dearly departed superstars; pick the matches that had the most impact on their impressionable young minds; and answer all of your no-holds-barred questions – including that old favourite from Football Weekly Live shows, who would win in a Premier League managers’ Royal Rumble?


Ben Green has been working in audio for 15 years and been the producer of the chart-topping Football Weekly podcast since 2008. He’s been a wrestling fan since the days of grannies and handbags on World of Sport and once saw Hacksaw Jim Duggan at WH Smith in Brent Cross. He misses CM Punk, has a serious man-crush on Roman Reigns, and thinks he can legitimately call Triple H ‘Paul’ because they spent a magical 15 minutes together in Blackpool. His book, Podcast Master, is out now – don’t miss his session on How to be a Podcast Producer during the London Podcast Festival.

John Ashdown is a writer and production editor on the Guardian’s sports desk. He’s a die-hard Sheffield United fan and an expert in lower league football – but his true passion lies in the Hulkamania era of the WWF and golden days of WCW. John famously drank 500 different beers in 2015. He misses the days of kayfabe and, yes, he really does look a bit like smaller, cuddlier Big Show.
