Trivia Takeover 8 (2023)
Trivia Takeover 8 was the forty-fifth Max Wrestling Podcast special, and eighth under the Trivia Takeover chronology. It was hosted by The Captain and Moses Marquez with special guests Chad Malcolm and Daniel Crimmins, plus promos from Beer, Chris Reid, Cypher and Tedd P Dinero.
Anon Mascaras and Mike Larkin also made appearances. Moving away from the previous three years' Champion's Chase, this event introduced the new Champion's Mountain format - modelled after Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?. The episode aired on June 29, 2023 on Facebook, YouTube, Soundcloud, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, TuneIn Radio, and Castbox. BackgroundBreaking tradition, this is the first Trivia Takeover to not have a sub-title since Trivia Takeover 3.0: Pick Your Poison in 2018. It is also doing away with the Champion's Chase match established in 2020. Instead, this year debuts the Champion's Mountain - which will see a challenger answer up to 15 multiple choice wrestling trivia questions in an effort to win the Knowledge Championship. The champion will have already answered the same questions, but the challenger will not know how many were answered correctly - and must therefore attempt to climb as high as possible in a hope to beat the champion's score. If both challenger and champion manage to answer all 15 questions correctly, it will be a draw, and they will go head to head at Fight For The Knowledge 2.
