Summary
This week's New Generation Declassified looks back at the WWF's video game titles released during the New Generation era. Featuring special co-host Grappler Six of the Grappler Gazette podcast, Chad and Six rundown the rosters for each game, the consoles where they appeared and how each title began to push the envelope of game play and graphics evolution throughout the decade. From classic run titles like RAW and Royal Rumble to more obscure releases like the NES King of the Ring and Sega CD's Rage in the Cage, we discuss the consumers desire, availability and how you found these games during their first run.

| 0:00.0 | The upcoming presentation is a two-man power trip on wrestling podcast production. The right. |
| 0:39.7 | Let's get it going right here, right now. |
| 0:42.2 | New Generation Declassified. |
| 0:44.4 | And you're listening to it all new. |

| 0:52.4 | If you didn't know by now, my name is Chad, and every single week, I'm usually at the |
| 0:56.7 | home operations, but this week I am not. |
| 0:59.3 | I am presently on the road in the home of the Millville Meteor, Mike Trout, Millville, |
| 1:05.1 | New Jersey, but never a dull moment. |
| 1:07.5 | So I have my laptop, we'll travel. |
| 1:09.9 | And tonight I am very happy to be joined by |
| 1:12.6 | a New Generation Declassified from the illustrious Grappler Group, Grappler number six, |
| 1:19.2 | joining me to talk about all things New Generation video games. |
| 1:23.9 | Chad, how are you? I am, I'm happy to be here, man. It's, uh, it's been a long time. So I'm happy, I'm happy to be here. It's great. I mean, if Mike Durban's listening, he's going to kill me for my audio, but I can't help it tonight, you know, with the traveling and having the ability to do it while I'm on the road. So it's a little checkmark in the plus column we can do it, but the audio will have to make do. So I will owe you one where you come back when we're on the full plane, we're on the full setup, and we'll have a fun time. But I think we're going to have a fun time with tonight's content too.

| 2:50.6 | So in all honesty, my interest |
| 2:53.8 | really started to waver around that timeframe, which I think it did for a lot of people. But, |
| 3:00.1 | you know, the diesels, you know, the doints, a lot of the, you know, crazy, the plumber guy, the garbage guy, |
| 3:10.7 | you know, all of these different things. |
