Episode 363: The Night Of The Double Turn

On this episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross and Conrad Thompson fire up the time machine and take you back to one of the most important nights in wrestling history WrestleMania XIII from March 23, 1997 at the Rosemont Horizon in Chicago, Illinois!

JR relives the iconic and industry changing double-turn between Bret "Hitman" Hart and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, breaking down why this moment redefined both men's careers and helped usher in a new era of professional wrestling. From Austin's gutsy, blood soaked performance to Bret's transformation into a bitter anti-hero, JR gives you a front-row seat to the magic as only he can.

The guys also dig into the ripple effects of Shawn Michaels "losing his smile", the arrival and impact of Chyna, and the introduction of Ken Shamrock as a special referee. Plus, JR shares his thoughts on Sid's WWF Championship win over Bret, the road to Undertaker vs. Sid in the main event, and how all of it fit into the rapidly changing landscape of the business including the growing influence of ECW.

Behind the scenes insight, unforgettable moments, and JR's signature storytelling make this a must-listen deep dive into a WrestleMania that changed everything.
