Yes, the most decorated champion in all of independent wrestling actually needs your help!

Next Thursday, May 17, 2012 @9:30 PM EST, The Papadon Show will make its jump to a LIVE timeslot on Thursday nights … giving you, the fans, an opportunity to talk directly with “The Greek God” himself each and every week right here on TBH.com!

As part of the switch, Papadon has been adament that THE Brady Hicks searches for the BEST new name for his weekly program. In fact, he has generously agreed to supply his brand new Papadon t-shirt to the person who comes up with the best name! The winner will be picked next Thursday LIVE on the show (if it pleases him). So it is written …

To submit a name for the show, e-mail intheroompodcast@gmail.com, leave a comment below, or leave a post on www.facebook.com/bradyhicks!

This post is only in response to the public smear campaign launched against Brady by several individuals. It is a final response, and not an attack. No plans are in place by Brady to comment on anyone, personally or professionally, any more than has been done or is mentioned below. We here at TBH.com think enough has been said and want this feud to end.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
Brady Hicks fired the first shot, airing the “dirty laundry” in the first place, and prompting him to follow suit.

The Truth Is …
When Hicks ranted about Bruce, Albert, and Erik on IN THE ROOM (4/24), he decided NOT to air it live or in any other form, as Wirt, himself, told DJ that he would not speak publicly on the matter on either show. It was then Wirt – on his program (4/25) – who proceeded to attack Hicks, personally and professionally, laying all of his issues out for the public. This prompted Hicks to subsequently air his 4/24 program in podcast-only form, only to defend himself.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
Hicks ambushed him, calling him on the air on 4/24 after 11 PM EST.

The Truth Is …
Hicks called Wirt to sort out their issues, but it was 9:45 PM EST, not 11 PM EST. This call is time-stamped in a joke by DJ on the show, referencing it as being before 10 PM EST.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
Hicks approached Erik Hauck (WrestlingMarx) about being used by thebradyhicks.com in a capacity similar to how he was used by Bruce.

The Truth Is …
It was Hauck who approached Hicks with the idea of delivering guests in exchange for airtime on IN THE ROOM. Only after telling Wirt, face-to-face, of Erik’s offer (and receiving Wirt’s consent), did Hicks agree to this deal and subsequently allow Erik to make an apparance on IN THE ROOM, as well as to allow him to do his own podcast, for which he also received approval from Wirt. 

Bruce Wirt Claims …
Hicks tried to actively recruit Albert Caraballo (Smooth) away from his staff.

The Truth Is …
Hicks informed Caraballo that he could always have a home at thebradyhicks.com should either Wirt stop running shows or should Caraballo be let go.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
He would never think of using thebradyhicks.com performers, citing DJ, Kevin McElvaney, and Mr. Akbaz as examples.

The Truth Is …
Kevin McElvaney and DJ were each used in segments on VOC Nation programs, McElvaney without any prior indication to Hicks.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
IN THE ROOM only entered a syndication agreement with GoFightLive because
VOC Nation did so first.

The Truth Is …
Brady Hicks and IN THE ROOM have a longstanding relationship with GoFightLive, dating back to early 2011, before Hicks ever even met Wirt.

Bruce Wirt Claims …
Hicks attempted to recruit Ratboy for a podcast on thebradyhicks.com.

The Truth Is …
He did, but with Wirt’s full knowledge, as the proposed show was conceived during a car ride back from Atlanta in which all three were together. Hicks would later rescind his offer when learning of Wirt’s true feelings. Coincidentally, Hicks also conceived the idea for “Absolutely Damaged, starring RB” on this trip. This segment Wirt would proceed to air.

Hello Brady,

Guess what. There is no such thing as a coincidence. Not around here. The fact that John and I have been able to log in, while you were not. The fact that the beleaguered Mike Bessler had the antidote to the site’s “database” errors. The fact that some of the errors on the site were not unlike those perpetrated during your feud with Harry Barnett last year. Coincidences? No. Not even close.

Hey guys,

A special shoutout to TBH.com’s own Mike Bessler for helping me isolate the database problem (which actually turned out to be a plugin problem) and, after three long hours on the phone with myself, helped me fix the site and make it so we could all post once again.

Hey guys. As I’m sure you’ve all noticed, TBH.com hasn’t been updated much this week. There has been an ongoing issue related to the database used for TBH.com’s posts, and it’s an issue that my Webmaster has been working on for a few days. Since I’ll be away on vacation this weekend, please excuse the site’s lack of activity. I’ll be back on Sunday and hopefully our contributors will be able to start posting once again by then. Have a great weekend!
