Spanning four action-packed days and playing before a captivated global audience thanks to Fite TV between 23-26 May, Conrad Thompson's vision for Starrcast II will far exceed what was achieved in Chicago at last September's original event. Back then, the All In show centrepiece seemed like it might lead to something special.

AEW's Double Or Nothing proves it has, and Starrcast is getting the party started in Las Vegas.

Members of our team from WhatCulture will be in attendance, appearing on the 'Podcast Movement Stage' at the Tuscany Suites and Casino adjacent to Caesar's Palace on Friday 24 May. That's just the tip of the iceberg. There will be literally thousands of like-minded wrestling fans on hand to watch a star-studded bevy of events.

Conrad's own 'Something To Wrestle With' pod (co-hosted by WWE creative mind Bruce Prichard) will be there, and there will be appearances from Sting, Bret Hart, Chris Jericho, Lita and loads more. It's a celebration of wrestling past and present, but there are a few select shows we believe you should go out of your way to see over the four-day festival.

Here are our top picks, and just some of the reasons why you should check out Starrcast II...
