Arc of an Angle - Embry vs. Akbar WCCW Ep. 3 - "He ain't Barry....."

**watch the show at the link below** https://rumble.com/v7avzkk-live-from-the-archive-arc-of-an-angle-embry-vs.-akbar-wccw-ep.-3-he-aint-ba.html Episode #3 of Live from the Archive: Arc of an Angle continues the week-by-week breakdown of the Eric Embry vs. Skandor Akbar / Devastation Inc. angle in late-era World Class Championship Wrestling but this week, with Robb Helt away celebrating his birthday, Gene Jackson, Scottie Wince, and Brandon Wheeler take over the show and immediately begin doing exactly what Robb probably feared they would do. This episode picks up with more WCCW chaos as Kendall Windham battles The Botswana Beast, only for Iceman King Parsons and Skandor Akbar to get involved. Just when Devastation Inc. looks ready to destroy Kendall, Eric Embry hits the ring to make the save, continuing his unlikely rise as the man standing up to Akbar’s army. The guys also watch Eric Embry vs. Iceman King Parsons, where Akbar and Black Bart get involved, the referee takes a bump, weapons come into play, and Kendall Windham makes the save, despite showing up with no weapon while the heels are armed and dangerous. This episode is part WCCW angle breakdown, part hostile takeover, and part birthday-week sabotage. The Embry vs. Akbar feud continues to build, but without Robb there to keep everyone focused, the conversation also wanders into ECW, Freebirds, Corey Maclin-adjacent controversy, Power Pro, Kid Wicked/Wikked, Kendall Windham’s life story, and anything else that happens to cross the boys’ minds. If you’re following the full Arc of an Angle journey, Episode #3 keeps the story moving as Eric Embry continues trying to position himself as the defender of World Class against Akbar’s crew even if Gene, Scottie, and Brandon are still trying to figure out how this bleach blond, brown bearded “used car salesman” became Texas wrestling’s last great hope. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ (https://www.patreon.com/retrowrestlingarchive)
