Season 3 Episode 6 - Wrestlemania 12

Season 3 reaches a true turning point as Dangerous Dave and Lex Lloydy revisit one of the most iconic matches in wrestling history — WrestleMania XII.
Headlined by the legendary 60-minute Iron Man Match between Bret “Hitman” Hart and Shawn Michaels, this event represents the peak of in-ring storytelling during the New Generation era. The lads break down the psychology, pacing, and drama of a match that dared to be different — a slow-burn classic that built tension minute by minute before delivering one of the most emotional finales in WrestleMania history.
Dave and Lex also explore the wider context of 1996, where World Wrestling Federation was evolving both in style and identity. They discuss Shawn Michaels’ crowning moment, Bret Hart’s role as the standard-bearer of excellence, and how this match helped shape the future direction of the company.
Was this the greatest technical showcase in WrestleMania history?
Or does the Iron Man concept divide fans even today?
