Tights and Fights

The year is winding down, but there’s still so much wrestling to catch up on. We’ll get to everything we loved on a brand new Tights and Fights ! But first: Lindsey Kelk is back and better than ever! She shares tales of her lovely tour of England, including meeting some of YOU! And how she may have to write a story about the Golden Lovers now? Plus, NXT 2.0 actually had some really good matches cu...

Happy Thanksgiving! We’re rejecting the pilgrim motif and instead focusing on what we’re thankful for after another year has gone by… after we talk about some of the food we’re eating first. But then we’ll get into it all from the great returns to all the amazing black wrestlers we got to see work this year to some of the things YOU told us you love most of all. References Kenny Johnson’s document...

Grab your letterman’s jackets and dancing shoes, it’s a brand new episode of Tights and Fights! There was another late-breaking case of “budget cuts” from the WWE this week. This included the faction Hit Row just weeks after they made their debuts on Smackdown! We’ll lament the talent lost and try to make sense of it all. But it’s not all bad news, AEW had another really good PPV this past weekend...

Tape up your fists and play that guitar, it’s a brand new episode of Tights and Fights !

This episode is an edited version of the show that was recorded LIVE as part of the London Podcast Festival! Summerslam 1992 represents a strange era of WWE. Business was down in the states, but live tours were doing great in England. So WWE decided to have one of their biggest shows in London at Wembley Stadium. We’ll be talking about so much from The Ultimate Warriors weird gear of the night to...

Break out the ice-cold corn dogs, it’s a brand new episode of Tights and Fights!

It’s the second week of the Max Fun Block Party, so let’s kick out the jams on a brand new Tights and Fights ! As we welcome new listeners, we feel it necessary to explain some of the TnF lexicon.

Check your draft card, it’s a brand new episode of Tights and Fights ! There’s going to be plenty of new faces on RAW and SmackDown.

After a week off from wrestling we’ve got a lot to catch up on a brand new Tights and Fights !  Bryan Danielson is already a force to be reckoned with on AEW! He took on Kenny Omega in a match that was so good that we almost feel bad for picking at the minor nits that bothered us.

For better or worse (but probably for worse), wrestling is about to get much more crowded than it’s been for over a year. We’ve already seen it in All Elite Wrestling. Their crowds reached an absolute fever pitch this past week at Fyter Fest night 1. We saw a bunch of great matches like Darby Allin vs. Ethan Page and fun moments like Adam Page finally confronting his pals in the Elite. And yet des...

Wakka Wakka! It’s a brand new episode of Tights and Fights! Muppets expert and host of the “Kermitment” podcast Matthew Gaydos joins us to break down all the biggest news in wrestling. He initially treated WWE’s empty arena shows as a way to get back into all the wrestling content he’d fallen out of. But that awkward silence was too much to bear for a weekly TV show. Now, he’s come back strong to...

There’s only one way to find out! Plus there’s a lot to get into from AEW and NXT: How’s about the Young Bucks new facial hair? Like, we can all ag...

Talk less, Claymore, cuz we’re a three man baaaaaaaaand on Tights and Fights ! We had what ended up being a weeklong journey through hell and back. After four hell in a cell matches across multiple nights of wrestling, what stood out?
