Ted Turner wasn’t just a media mogul — he was the man who accidentally, defiantly, and gloriously changed the entire trajectory of professional wrestling. From the rise of WCW to the ripple effects still felt today, we’re taking a grounded, thoughtful look at the legacy he left behind and the business he reshaped. We break down everything from this past weekend’s Backlash — the highs, the lows, the “why did they book that,” and the moments that reminded us why this sport still hooks us after all these years. This week’s episode is loaded, layered, and absolutely worth your time. Whether you’re here for the history, the critique, or the chaos, we’ve got you covered.Hit the ring, hit the marks, Tuesdays at 7pm on the HMG. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hitting-the-marks-pro-wrestling-podcast-8780/episodes/hitting-the-marks-05-12-26/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/hitting-the-marks-pro-wrestling-podcast-8780/hitting-the-marks-05-12-26.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
