PWF Empire Live: Recent Episodes

PWF Empire Live

PWF Empire Live is a pro wrestling webcast that features candid discussions about the hottest topics, issues and events in the world of wrestling via long-form conversations, thought-provoking analysis and witty commentary.

We presents what literally may be our most positive show EVER!

PWF Empire contributors Stephen, Dalton, and Jay wade through the wreckage of Great Balls of Fire's featured match-ups (Brock Lesnar vs Samoa Joe, and Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman) by discussing what the matches accomplished and the future holds for all four men.

In addition, we also talk about what it truly means to be a "face" and "heel" in pro wrestling and why the debate surrounding a supposed double-turn following Roman Reigns' post-match attack on Braun Strowman at GBOF was misplaced.

PWF Empire presents the Kayfabe Tier List: a visual tracker used to record the mobility of the members of WWE’s roster in terms of credibility and presentation.

For the post-Money in the Bank (June 2017) Kayfabe Tier List, PWF Empire contributors Jay and KTL creator Stephen discuss the effect WWE Champion Jinder Mahal and Universal Champion Brock Lesnar are having on their respective titles, the rollercoaster that is Roman Reigns' ooking (spoiler alert: we're on an upswing), WWE prominently featuring more matches between heavyweights, Big Cass turning on Enzo, and more!

PWF Empire host Jay challenges Lucas to a debate over Lucas' post-Extreme Rules tweet: "Idk how to feel about this, Joe vs Lesnar. I would be hypocritical to like this and still hate Jinder Mahals push. Joe won out of no where".

In addition, Jay, Lucas, and Stephen discuss all of the implications that come along with a dream match like Brock Lesnar vs Samoa Joe becoming a reality, the "x factor" that could make or break the feud/match, the importance of championships being present on TV, and more!

In addition to discussing the possible return of The Authority and the latest storyline developments with Kurt Angle, Corey Graves, Big Cass and Enzo Amore, PWF Empire contributors Jay, Dalton, Lucas, and Justin have a conversation about Good vs Evil in storytelling.

Using The Undertaker defending The Streak vs CM Punk at WrestleMania 29 as a template, Justin argues in favor of staying true to the tradition of professional wrestling in having well-defined face and heel characters, while Jay uses the Roman Reigns vs AJ Styles feud from 2016 to signify the importance of flexibility in the alignment of characters and variety in storytelling.

Justin also attempts to argue that WrestleMania 29 featured the best build to any Streak match at WrestleMania, lol

PWF Empire presents the Kayfabe Tier List: a visual tracker used to record the mobility of the members of WWE’s roster in terms of credibility and presentation.

For the post-Backlash (May 2017) Kayfabe Tier List, PWF Empire contributors Jay and KTL creator Stephen discuss former world champions Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens currently holding midcard titles, if WWE has properly managed Roman Reigns' heat from retiring The Undertaker (spoiler alert: they haven't), WWE's booking philosophy that led to Jinder Mahal becoming WWE Champion, and the ripple effect his win has had on the rest of the company.

Current WWE Champion Randy Orton retweeted the following message on Twitter, causing a divide in the Internet Wrestling Community:

“Every Indy match now: handshake, drawn out move exchange, this is awesome chant, strike exchange, dive no sell Indy strongstyle, dive, more strikes, no sells, dive, flippy floppy sequence, dive, hit everyone with each other’s finisher then Humpty Dumpty we all fall down. Fight forever chant, rinse and repeat until every move is useless and means nothing, dive, take unsafe shot that looks like shit and hurts like hell then roll up finish. Hand shake and hug after match. Everyone’s hands raised. All these guys chant. Go home and type on social media thanking your opponents and company for the match and telling others they should book these guys. ……………dive.”

PWF Empire contributors Jay, Stephen, Dalton, and Micah "dive" into the controversy created by Orton co-signing and amplifying the message, the significance of the independent wrestling scene on the wrestling industry as a whole, and its negative(?) influence on WWE.

18:46 - Round 2: What is the A-Show of 2016?

40:13 - Round 3: Who is the Wrestler of the Year?

Last Mark Standing is a roundtable debate-style discussion show conducted in the style of a panel game.

Format:

Last Mark Standing is judged on three rounds of competition formatted in a roundtable debate-style.

Each round begins with a pro wrestling-related question, and the competitors engage in a no-holds barred war to see who can argue the best case in favor of their answer.

THIS IS NOT A POPULARITY CONTEST!! You do not win by having the best answer; you win by having the best argument.

When the final scores are tallied, the person with the most points is crowned the Last Mark Standing.

On the occasion of WWE reinstating the brand extension, we here at PWF Empire have commissioned our very own fantasy draft. How would the respective rosters of RAW and SmackDown look if WE were calling the shots? Well, you’re about to find out…

PWF Empire hosts Jay and Cass discuss some hot topics in the world of wrestling, including Randy Orton being announced as Brock Lesnar's opponent for WWE SummerSlam 2016, and Matt Hardy vs Jeff Hardy on TNA Impact Wrestling's #TheFinalDeletion.

Per WrestlingInc.com:

Former WWE Champion CM Punk, who makes his UFC debut in September at UFC 203 in Cleveland, appeared on "The Herd" with Colin Cowherd earlier today and had some interesting comments about his former employer. Thanks to FOX Sports for the following quotes:

"Back in I want to say, 2011, my contract was up and they were trying to re-sign me and they were trying to re-sign me for lowball figures. It's what they do to the guys. They're indentured servants. They try to pay them the smallest amount of money you could possibly pay them. There's no health insurance. You're responsible for your own travel, your own hotels, your own food on the road. You're home once a day, maybe. I did that 10 years to get to the WWE and then I did it 10 years there, so my gas tank was empty in that regard."

Per Wrestling Inc:

We recently reported how WWE was apparently bringing back the WCW Clash of the Champions name for TV specials and other merchandising. We also reported how there were plans to do brand-specific pay-per-view events after the upcoming WWE Brand Extension.

According to a user on Reddit, WWE will indeed be bringing back the Clash name to use at a RAW branded pay-per-view event. The user also leaked this pay-per-view calendar for the rest of the year. - http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/2016/0622/612938/major-wwe-pay-per-view-changes-revealed-for-the-upcoming-wwe/

After a six year absence from WWE, Shane McMahon made a shocking return to Monday Night RAW and immediately kicked off a power struggle over the family business.

PWF Empire Live (also known as Live) is a spin-off of Pro Wrestling Talk Radio and the flagship program of PWF Empire.

The inception of PWF Empire Live was spurred by PWTR shifting its primary focus to a video webcast in mid-2014. By the beginning of 2015, the show had evolved beyond what it was originally intended to be, so the decision was made to return PWTR to its podcast roots while continuing the webcast as a separate entity.

PWF Empire Live is hosted by Brian Joel (Jay) and Charlie Feist, who bring the insightful commentary and witty analysis that served as the cornerstone of their tenure as the two longest-serving hosts of PWTR. Newcomer Evan Medina joins Jay and Charlie to complete the PWF Empire Live hosting panel.

PWF Empire presents the seventh episode of PWF Empire Live, a spin-off of Pro Wrestling Talk Radio hosted by Brian Joel (Jay) and Charlie Feist, who bring the insightful commentary and witty analysis that served as the cornerstone of their tenure as the two longest-serving hosts of PWTR.
