We said we were gonna walk into the sea if Kenny didn’t win this week. And now it’s so hot in the UK we kind of want to walk into the sea anyway?

(00:29:50) Never...

Bit of a different one today!

(Also, we got into it a bit about Blackheart Lio Rush and David Francisco, because why n...

Two things happened this week: an AEW pay-per-view, and a record-breaking heatwave in the UK. Your girlies (gn) made it through both, but we couldn’t say we were at our best. (00:00:00) We’re too hot and we’ve watched too much wrestling (00:04:52) Mick Foley is All Elite! (00:07:38) Pre-show: just a five-minute eliminator for the Divine Dominion, while people are still coming in? (00:10:54) Pre-sh...

Only three hours of AEW to discuss this week, and mostly we’ve concluded that we have no idea what’s going to happen at All In, it’s ages away yet, anything could happen. Hopefully Lio Rush wins a title though! (00:00:00) If we got black-misted, would anyone even notice? Plus: excess Ring of Honor, a month of RevPro chaos, and a bit of BOSJ (00:08:07) Swerve Strickland gives us our new reaction cl...

Weird one this week, wasn't it? Maybe a three hour show on a Wednesday is just a weird vibe. (00:00:00) Promotional malpractice, pay cuts at the Fed, and some anti-capitalism (00:11:24) Sending all our love to Rebel/Tanea Brooks and her family (00:14:55) Watch out for catfish in the IWC! (00:15:36) Three hours of Dynamite/Collision on Wednesday this week… and we’ve gotta talk about Orange Cassidy...

Come for the episode recaps, stay for the increasingly unhinged fantasy booking. No, you're gonna like it, honestly. (00:00:00) Housekeeping, some sad WWE debuts, some WWE releases, and… no, we don’t know why we’re talking so much about that place either, sorry, won’t happen again (00:10:04) Lots of things on Dynamite made us happy this week. Starting with the further adventures of Orange Cassidy...

Oof. Lots going on, eh? This week, we attempt to run down everything that’s happened since Dynasty, but unfortunately there’s a ghost in the machine (and it seems to be trying to type on MJ’s keyboard throughout?) (00:00:00) We try to remember how to do this podcast thing (00:09:54) We’ve got a new AEW men’s world champion since we last recorded, and we don’t like it (00:18:34) Maxwell crashout er...

We're having a sleepover, and you're invited! Veda Scott is a wrestling broadcaster who's worked with NPJW, TJPW, CMLL, GCW, AEW, North, and more. We were very, very excited to get into our comfies, plan snacks, figure out which wrestling matches to watch, and then set the world to rights with Veda. Also? We asked about the cave wrestling show. Because how could we not? (00:00:00) Hello Veda! (00:...

We’re just a weekly wrestling podcast, standing in front of a wrestling promoter, asking for some decent storytelling… (00:00:00) That Thursday Collision really messed with our sense of time and space (00:03:42) The return of Chris Jericho to AEW, and jobs for the boys (00:15:56) Kenny Omega’s guts could explode at ANY MOMENT (00:24:36) Imagine working in an office with The Demand (00:28:53) MJF a...

We're never accepting that a "double main event" is a thing, especially if it means women never get to be the main event. (00:00:00) Double main events are nonsense, plus news from RevPro: our new women’s champion, a Mercedes Mone sighting, and a big old heel turn from One Called Manders (00:21:05) Things the internet has been arguing about this week, featuring Brody King, the disappearance of Ton...

The SEO company that keeps emailing us says we need to mention that we’re a weekly wrestling podcast. So hi, it’s us, your weekly wrestling podcast, with our rundown of what happened in wrestling this week. CW: serious discussion of sexual assault, so if that’s triggering, skip the controversies section. (00:00:00) News: Kenny Omega’s adventures in Japan, the launch of MyAEW, new announcements for...

Tony Khan, we need a word. And also access to your calendar, because we’re pretty sure the reason we’re feeling unhappy this week is that your pay-per-views are unevenly spaced… (00:00:00) Mercury’s in retrograde (00:01:50) Pour one out for Jet Set Rodeo (00:20:08) What does losing the trios belt mean for Hangman’s chances at Revolution? (00:29:27) Thekla vs Thunder Rosa should have been the main...

Okay, a “One Way No Disqualification Match” stipulation is funny, you’ve gotta give Max points for that. This week, we're the wrestling podcast that feels no pain, only joy. And maybe a little bit of pain. (00:00:00) News (00:02:11) MJF and Hangman decided on their stip and… it’s the one they told us last week (00:14:01) Quite excited about the idea of monster heel Swerve Strickland actually (00:1...

Are we really going to see Hangman send himself to Cody Island? This week’s AEW shows had us worried that we were going to see bad things happen to our faves, but we didn’t see that one coming… (00:00:00) News - Tony Khan has signed new women, so will we see more time for women’s matches on the telly? (00:04:42) We didn’t need to worry, Orange Cassidy did not get his head shaved in the Hair vs Hai...

Time for your favourite wrestling podcast again! No? Second? Top five?  Anyway. We thought we were going to have a quiet week ahead of AEW Grand Slam Australia, but nope! We got two title changes, one of which came at the end of a very bloody strap match; Mina Shirakawa got an impromptu haircut; and Hangman’s boyfriends are still fighting over him.  Get it in your ears. (00:00:00) News (00:10:43)...

It's been an interesting week for AEW fans on social media, we'll say that much. (00:00:00) News: Hiromu Takahashi leaving NJPW, Clark Connors and Gabe Kidd popping up in AEW, a Will Ospreay health update, a Kota Ibushi health update, and Hangman’s Sports Illustrated interview about his relationship with Marty Scurrl (00:18:21) The number one contenders’ battle did not go the way we thought it wou...

We got a new man this week, plus two Dynamite segments almost too horny for TV, but you know what we're gonna say... only one women's match?!
