  • Summary

  • DJ Special K delves into an intriguing chapter from wrestling history on this episode of 'The Wrestling Historian'. The focus is on WWE's mid-2000s innovative event, Taboo Tuesday. The concept was meant to engage viewers by letting them make live choices on matches and stipulations. However, the execution fell short due to prior booking plans, revealing an artificial scope of fan involvement. The unconventional Tuesday slot also hurt attendance and buy rates. Continued attempts to keep the concept alive, including a rebranding to Cyber Sunday, didn't gather traction and by 2008, WWE ended the fan-voted pay-per-view experiment. However, the host emphasizes the lasting legacy of this experiment as a forerunner to more interactive wrestling content today. He ends the episode inviting listeners' feedback and promising more fascinating tales from wrestling history.
