Ho ho ho, fuckers. Join Statto and David (and Daniel for a brief cameo recorded before he was detained by the authorities after someone actually listened to the 2022 Christmas Special and found out what he said about the Queen) to hoover up another line of festive cheer. This year we once again field the questions of our most deranged fans, review the best and worst of 2024 in the usual paltry detail, and Statto turns in his most shocking performance yet in the annual quiz. After that, we take another trip east to watch wrestlers from Japan and the Philippines fight for a Singaporean title in China, and decide once and for all who the ten defining wrestlers of the 1990s are (spoiler alert: there will be no Stone Cold or Goldberg, but there will be multiple wrestlers with negative star matches from the Observer to their name). Merry Christmas to our wonderful audience, and let's hope 2025 is less fucked. 0:00:00 – Intro 0:02:29 – Q&A 1:24:27 – Year in Review 2:05:51 – NJPW Christmas Quiz 2:30:27 – Terry Riley’s Personal Collection Vol.7 – Yuki Kamifuku (c) vs. Crystal (SPW Queen of Asia Championship) (MKW, 14 September 2024) 2:46:13 – The Baby Boy Bono-chan Awards, 1990-1999

The crew have been off on their travels again, and that means it's time for another PPP Holiday Special! David and Statto are joined by returning guest Sarah Parkin for a rundown of their recent sojourns abroad. Find out what happened when David went to Las Vegas, risked it all (£80) with the high rollers and ate the worst fish and chips of his life, followed by Statto and Sarah recounting last month's trip to Japan, which included live shows from STARDOM, Marigold, Marvelous and Ice Ribbon, not to mention numerous other wrestling-related fun concerning such legends as Akira Hokuto, Riki Choshu, Minoru Suzuki and *checks notes* Bad Dude Tito.
