Jobbing Out

It was a tough week in pro wrestling between positive tests and the #SpeakingOut movement. That wasn't so great. But what is great is that we have our "Main Event" back, as AJ tells us about life in Orlando right now, getting tested, watching the shows, his thoughts on #SpeakingOut, the greatness of Randy Orton, an allegation Glenn has held against him for years and much more. It was a fun, shorte...

PayBacklash is in the rearview mirror and it......certainly happened. Edge/Randy Orton was good, but does the framing of the match actually hurt the way we look at it in retrospect? Where do we go with Edge sidelined? Should Randy Orton ACTUALLY be a face? Plus, Paul Heyman is out, we're going "Champ Champ" on NXT and much more. At 1:00:35, our friend Kevin Eck joins the program to discuss his new...

It's PayBackLash week! Yay! But first...let's recap In Your House. It was...fine? By NXT standards...not great? The main event picture is...cloudy. REALLY cloudy. Where do we go now, exactly? We make our PayBacklash picks with our buddy Steve Migs-who is back as a father but sadly lost a marquee match to the COVID crisis. Is there any chance of a different heavyweight champion this weekend? Any ch...

It's a weird week to be talking pro wrestling, but that's what we do here. The Jeff Hardy angle is certainly surprising-is it necessarily bad? We discussed the rest of the week that was in WWE and AEW-including Matt Riddle's arrival on SmackDown. At 40:58, we recognized the life and senseless murder of George Floyd by recognizing 8:46 of silence. At 57:56, Ring of Honor wrestler and commentator Ca...

Stadium Stampede was amazing, Double Or Nothing had some unforgivable decisions, Mike Tyson and Henry Cejudo are exactly what now? Or and also, crowds are back in WWE, AJ got dissed by Charlotte, Glenn and R-Truth are Twitter buddies and at 1:31:22, IMPACT Wrestling star Michael Elgin joined us to discuss his general ass-kicking nature and a recent work Tweet that turned into a shoot...

Jobbing Out May 21, 2020 (Double Or Nothing Preview) by JobbingOut

On this week's show we discuss all of the fallout from the week that was-what was KINDA off about the MITB matches? Is Otis really going to be champ? They're not going to waste this somehow, are they? And we're thrilled for Becky but bummed for wrestling fans...or can something good come from this? And most importantly, at 1:37:44-Pineapple freaking Pete himself-the great Suge D (Sugar Dunkerton)...

BIG show! We come out of the gate with our friend John Minadakis from Jimmy's Famous Seafood hanging out to discuss how pro wrestling's favorite restaurant has held things together during the pandemic, why he enjoys what he's seen from AEW, the "Cody problem," the issues he's had with WWE's business and more. REALLY compelling stuff. After that (37:29), "The Main Event" is back. AJ joins us to mak...

Here's a teaser for this week's episode-our conversation with former WWE/WCW star Rick Steiner, whose son Bronson Rechsteiner just signed with the Baltimore Ravens!

The Cody thing. It's a problem. Are we ready to admit it's a problem? We discuss that and so much more on this week's Jobbing Out...

We're on board with the new Money In The Bank concept. It's honestly dope. Well Aaron is nervous, but he's the worst. We discussed that, new Smackdown tag champs, lots of tournament wrestling, the Kenny Omega problem and much more on this week's show. And at 1:27:53, Adam Thornstowe (one half of IMPACT Wrestling's "Reno Scum") joined us to discuss working his day job as a surgical supervisor right...

Obviously it was an insanely difficult week in the world of pro wrestling-we discuss all of the various issues in the first segment of this week's show, which became a Rusev appreciation society. (And Lio Rush. And tag team wrestling.) In Segment 2, we discussed more of what actually happened on RAW, Smackdown, NXT and AEW this week. And in Segment 3 (1:39:40), we welcome the great Dr. Tom Prichar...

WrestleMania is in the books and was...actually really good! We talked Boneyard Murders, whether the Firefly Funhouse was actually a match or not, where to go next with Braun Strowman and much more-but most importantly, YOU GUYS AJ MADE HIS WWE DEBUT AT FRIGGIN' WRESTLEMANIA. He tells us all about the experience-when he knew it was happening, why he failed to get the job done and what it was like...

Our buddy Benjamin Nash (the author of the greatest joke in Jobbing Out history) sits in this week as we preview the strangest WrestleMania in history....

We have much to discuss this week-we now know what WrestleMania will be-will it always be this? And if we're willing to have wrestling matches, why not have more wrestling matches? Oh and also, NXT's Gargano/Ciampa show is worth watching forever and we have new AEW stars-what will happen with them?

Things are totally crazy right now...but "The Main Event" is back! AJ joined us to talk about how wild things are right now for WWE performers-he's not allowed to perform...or train...but could he maybe end up being one of the few people allowed to attend WrestleMania? We discussed all of that on this week's show, plus the various rumors about WrestleMania, the Hall of Fame, NXT TakeOver and much...

There was a Pay-Per-View and for what it was, it was fine. But it shouldn't be that way. We discussed that, the rest of the week that was in WWE and AEW but also hit two subjects hard this week. 1-What's the plan for Rob Gronkowski now that he's joined WWE? And 2-what the hell does WWE do if WrestleMania can't happen?

It has been quite a week. There is a LOT to react to between WWE Super Showdown, AEW Revolution, Smackdown and RAW. We know much of it is a mess, the Goldberg stuff is a disaster, the Fiend stuff is too, so is the Cena stuff, etc. But Drew McIntyre got a good segment and oh boy did Randy Orton and Beth Phoenix ever have an AMAZING segment. Plus Revolution was good and we finally got around to maki...

So much to discuss on this week's show-we kicked things off by making our picks for WWE Super ShowDown in Riyadh-which is...a place in our hearts? Also what to make of the reported changes to two of WWE's biggest WrestleMania matches. Does Cena/Fiend make sense? Should Bianca be added to the Charlotte/Rhea match? In Segment 3 (1:24:56), we welcomed Glen Burnie's own Duane Gill back to the show bef...

There's much to discuss this week-including the fallout from TakeOver Portland, are there any actual faces on their roster now? Also, what to make of the John Cena/Elias rumors? Are we worried about how WWE views Elias? What to make of Jeff Cobb/AEW and much much more on this week's show...

The boys went to the big Ring Of Honor show in Baltimore on Sunday. It was good! But it was LONG. Does pro wrestling have a problem with the length of their shows in general? We discussed that this week plus-Shayna is a vampire?, could we do Daniel Bryan and The Fiend again and more in Segment 1. In Segment 2, the singles stars on RAW are battling for the tag titles while the tag teams are...?, wh...

The WrestleMania picture is getting a little clearer and, oh great, Goldberg is back. Yay. In the first two segments of the show we discuss Charlotte/Rhea, putting Ricochet in a title match, what Goldberg should be doing, whether John Cena should be facing The Fiend at WrestleMania, a new division emerging on RAW, Braun Strowman getting a belt, if AEW is painting themselves into a Moxley corner an...

There is SOOOOO much that has happened this week-Drew McIntyre won the Royal Rumble, Edge is back, who is Charlotte going to face?, wrestling on boats is frickin' awesome and more! We discussed it throughout the first two segments, pausing (32:36) to catch up with Brian Pillman Jr. before the MLW show this weekend at 2300 Arena in Philadelphia and his relationship with Ravens coach John Harbaugh,...

AJ's not back yet-but we're hoping you'll hear from him soon. In the meantime we had much to discuss on this week's show-starting with our picks for Worlds Collide and Royal Rumble this weekend. Will Brock Lesnar go the distance? If not, who eliminates him. And hey, it's nice that there's actually a reason for him to be doing this! We discussed all of that in the first two segments of the show. An...

Welp. The day has come. Our "Main Event" is on his way. We reflect on AJ reporting to the WWE Performance Center, what it means for the show and, well, the rest of the week in pro wrestling-including Brock/R-Truth, a new faction, Tessa Blanchard's wild week, Marty Scurll's new gig, the greatness of Tyler Bate/Jordan Develin and more...
