The wrestling world lost Dory Funk Jr. this week, one of the more legendary names in the history of the business, and I'll talk a little bit about why that is. Brock Lesnar also announced his RETIREMENT this week and I've got a lot to say about that, too, including how legit I think it is, what his legacy will be and the best Brock matches of his career. Plus, thoughts on the WWE/AAA tournament to crown a challenger for Roman Reigns in Mexico City... Smackdown thoughts from Friday on Kevin Owens and CM Punk's first face-to-face, Tatum Paxley's debut and then injury that could DERAIL Chelsea Green's title run before it even begins... AJ Styles sticking up for his son leads to SAD TWEET honors for this week... why the Paramount deal to acquire WBD, in my opinion, appears to be DEAD and what that means for AEW... Grand Slam Mexico fallout with the return of MJF... and my DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on the quick rise and tragic fall of The Renegade from WCW.

Solomonster reviews the post Summerslam episode of WWE Raw, which may have been their best all year as it felt like a bit of a much-needed reset. LA Knight standing up to Roman Reigns, Oba Femi and Bron Breakker eyeballing each other, the returns of Becky Lynch and Stephanie Vaquer, the debut of Big Cass and an unexpected cliffhanger with Rey Mysterio and Roman Reigns going off to discuss... AAA BUSINESS?

Holy crap, it's a LOADED SHOW in between both nights of WWE Summerslam with my reaction to Night One, including Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi inside Hell in a Cell, and Triple H's comments after the show about the need for talents to GET THEMSELVES OVER if they want to be in a top spot. I've got a LOT to say about that, as well as his absurd comments from Thursday on Busted Open Radio about wishing the fans would just BELIEVE more (yes, it is OUR fault, you see!). Plus, the latest installment of LOLTNA with Lebron James, thoughts on the Grayson Waller "pipebomb" from NXT this week and a DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on the life and death of the Big Boss Man, including insights into his close friendship with Chris Benoit NOT included in the episode!

Solomonster reviews the final WWE Raw before Summerslam with one of the worst segments all year, a NEW Women's Intercontinental champion crowned and final hype for Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins and Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar. Their television needs a major reset coming out of this weekend.

Solomonster reviews AEW Redemption 2026, the weakest of all the AEW PPVs this year but not without its newsworthy moments, including Will Ospreay leaving the Deathriders, Willow Nightingale winning the Women's World Championship and Maya World capturing TBS gold. And then, there was a terrible tag team chain match and Mick Foley BARKING LIKE A DOG. WTF is this?

We're opening with some LOST MEDIA from the Sound Off many years ago as it relates to GLOBAL FORCE GOLD, and then it's time to talk AEW Redemption predictions for tonight... the latest twist in Paramount's attempted acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery and how it may ALL FALL APART... the end of the Vince McMahon/Janel Grant story... thoughts on Mike Santana debuting in NXT... all the former WWE FREE AGENT names that hit the market this week and where they may land... my honest thoughts on SiriusXM and Busted Open radio "selling out" to WWE and the very real consequences of this takeover... SUMMERSLAM PREDICTIONS for next weekend... and my DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on the famous match between Samoa Joe and Necro Butcher, and Joe's big reveal on whether the heat between them was real or not.

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Redemption and tempers have flared between Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay with Jon Moxley square in the middle of it all. We got a couple of really good matches, including Kevin Knight defending the TNT championship against Darby Allin, and an appearance by Mick Foley.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw from Detroit, which has to be the worst episode of the show all year. Certainly the most boring and inconsequential of them all. Danhausen had a GAZILLION segments in the ring and in the back as they attempt to beat that horse to within an inch of its life. And oh yeah, Tom Brady is in discussions with WWE. For what, we don't know, but whatever it is, it's not good.

I've got quick thoughts on The Odyssey to share before we get into all the news of the week, including WWE running opposite AEW All Out and NYC events announced for WrestleMania weekend... thoughts on Rhea Ripley NOT being stripped of her championship and instead crowning an INTERIM champion until she's ready to return... Saturday Night's Main Event fallout with Roman Reigns and Jalen Brunson, plus an angry Cody Rhodes confronting CM Punk after the show and what's next for Sami Zayn... AJ Styles advocates for WWE to acquire a promotion in Japan (sigh)... an update on the case against Ludwig Kaiser... a FULL REVIEW for a polarizing episode of AEW Dynamite and I've got a lot to say about it, plus predictions for AEW Redemption... and a DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on the finale for Jeff Jarrett and the battle for TNA Wrestling, including some incredible LOLTNA moments that were covered here, and others that were not!

This is my first time opening with thoughts on TWO DIFFERENT IRISHMEN in Conor McGregor and Sheamus, but at least one of them isn't totally washed... plus, we had TWO MAJOR World championship changes this week in WWE and AEW, both of which will have big implications for their upcoming shows... Summerslam gets a boost and might there be a heel turn in the works for Cody Rhodes or CM Punk... Saturday Night's Main Event PREDICTIONS... the return of Hangman Adam Page on Collision... the WWE Hall of Famer undergoing brain surgery soon... and a DOUBLE DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on Jeff Jarrett and the battle for TNA Wrestling, including an epic burial of Dixie Carter. Buckle up, this one's a doozy!

Hear the voicemails from Ari Emanuel and Vince McMahon... as we open a LOADED SHOW with thoughts on NXT Great American Bash getting wrecked against Forbidden Door... why Sami Zayn's reign as WWE champion is already OVER before it even begins, plus the impending return of CM Punk and what that means for Cody Rhodes at Summerslam... Oba Femi sets aside his guaranteed title match at Summerslam for HELL IN A CELL with Brock Lesnar and why WWE did things the way they did with King of the Ring... thoughts on The Vision possibly coming to an end... THREE NAMES on their way to WWE from TNA and AEW... Kenny Omega gets his rematch with MJF for the AEW World championship THREE WEEKS before Redemption... Darby Allin says NO to a match against Mick Foley... my rant on Paul Levesque telling Stephen A. Smith that fans take the WWE product too seriously (not untrue) and to just be a fan and HAVE FUN (oh, I'll have fun with this alright)... thoughts on Paul Heyman saying the ALGORITHM dictates creativity in WWE, and why Cesaro was a bust as a Heyman Guy... one listener compares Jade Cargill with Ahmed Johnson... and are there any famous wrestling conspiracies I can actually BELIEVE?

It's a BUSY WRESTLING DAY today with TNA, NXT and AEW all hosting major shows, but the news never stops! Peter Rosenberg said something stupid, but it was good for a laugh at least... plus, TNA pushes back on Tommy Dreamer creative claims... a preview for NXT Great American Bash and a possible debut... Tony Khan asked about possibly buying TNA... final Forbidden Door PREDICTIONS... Zilla Fatu reportedly coming to WWE... Night of Champions fallout with Sami Zayn as the NEW WWE CHAMPION, Oba Femi crowned king and what it all means now for Summerslam, Piper Niven puts Jade Cargill on blast and Gunther fights with Nick Aldis... and why did Vince McMahon grow to hate Raven during his first run in WWE?

Solomonster is back with a review for a wrestling-heavy episode of AEW Dynamite with nothing else to really sink our teeth into. We had eight matches and nothing even close to the face-ot-face last week with Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland. He also has Forbidden Door PREDICTIONS for Sunday and cannot wait until this PPV is over and done with so we can get to the Road to Redemption.

WWE is holding its Night of Champions show next weekend and I've got PREDICTIONS, including for the King of the Ring and Queen of the Ring finals, thoughts on what happened on Smackdown and why Sami Zayn should win the WWE championship in Riyadh.
But it was also a WILD WEEK FOR TNA and I'm covering more TNA news in this one episode than I've ever done in the 19 years of this podcast... with thoughts on Tessa Blanchard LEAVING TNA, Tommy Dreamer "mutually" parting ways with the company (sure thing), Sami Callihan making some noise on his way out after getting the axe and questions about exactly how much money TNA is getting out of this AMC deal as talent continues to flee.
On the AEW side, Jim Ross is back in the hospital again, FTR is taking time away from the ring and thoughts on Maya World's SHOCKING WIN over Athena in the Owen Hart tournament and where things may be headed there with Mercedes Mone in the finals.
Plus, the death of Duke Doherty, thoughts on Cyndi Lauper getting her own WWE action figure and what that means for the Hall of Fame, could a Razor Ramon World title run have worked and my review for the new TOY STORY 5 movie.

Vince McMahon's legal troubles may not be over yet, but he's been spared an embarrassing trial in a SURPRISE move this week, and here's why that makes a return to WWE at some point a lot more likely than it was before. I have also have words for those who continue to defend this man, including dumb comments from Teddy Long and JBL. The CM Punk rumors this week have also been INSANE... here's when you can expect him back and a way that he could win... KING OF THE RING?! Plus... other KOTR and QOTR updates, including the completion of the SMACKDOWN SWEEP as the brand gets totally buried... the Paramount/Skydance acquisition of WBD gets Justice Department approval, but why it could still all fall apart... renewed drama in the Ryan Nemeth lawsuit against AEW as he takes another shot at CM Punk... tribalism in wrestling during the Monday Night War... the best tournament finals in wrestling history, including best KOTR final... and my review for DISCLOSURE DAY, which was supposed to be Steven Spielberg's best film in 20 years. Yeah, about that...

Last week, Vince McMahon and Nick Khan were SANCTIONED by the judge in the WWE shareholders lawsuit and things looked a lot more bleak for their case, but suddenly, the trial has been canceled. I've got thoughts on that, and a LOT to say about Nick Khan lying when he says their creative plans for WrestleMania 40 NEVER CHANGED and things played out exactly the way they wanted. Plus, AAA thoughts from mask vs. mask last weekend and why it's NOW OR NEVER for Chad Gable in WWE... the latest in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments... LA Knight speaks on why his crowd reactions have diminished from what they used to be... Mick Foley is going to wrestle for AEW... thoughts on a really strong Dynamite show this week and the return of Mercedes Mone... the fate of Lucha Underground REVEALED... the new playable character in WWE 2K26 that you won't believe... the Ilja Dragunov "report" that wasn't this week... how to fix tag team wrestling in WWE... the real heat between Mick Foley and Ric Flair in 2006...

Solomonster reviews AEW Double or Nothing 2026 from Louie Armstrong Stadium, not only the greatest Double or Nothing the company has ever hosted, but one of its greatest PPV efforts, which is saying a lot considering the quality of those shows. MJF still has his hair, but also regained his AEW World title after a hellacious battle with Darby Allin, while Cope and Christian make history, Takeshita and Okada steal the show, the Owen Hart tournaments commence and Stadium Stampede offers the insanity you would expect.

I watched the "fight" on Netflix last night with Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano (with a combined 27 YEARS of inactivity between both of them) and have thoughts on that, as well as the best movie I've seen in theaters ALL YEAR so far (non-spoiler). But then it's the latest on the John Cena Classic and one idea to make fan voting work... Andrew Yang backs up Kevin Nash's comments about WWE wrestlers joining the SAG-AFTRA union... Stephanie Vaquer's abuser gets NO additional prison time after all... Saturday Night's Main Event PREDICTIONS... why Mick Foley could be headed to AEW... thoughts on the Owen Hart tournament brackets, and thoughts on this Athena forever reign in Ring of Honor... Double or Nothing PREDICTIONS... contract rumors for Jack Perry and Big Bill... Marty Jannetty LOSES HIS FOOT... and MVP takes more shots at Triple H not elevating new talents during his career. Do you agree?

It's hard to express how HUGE of a figure Ted Turner was to pro wrestling... but I'm sure gonna try. Lots of to say about his death, his impact on WCW, Vince McMahon, the TV news industry, Atlanta sports and so much more. Plus, justice is served (or is it?) in the case of Raja Jackson... Nick Khan sticking around WWE for many more years and more on why recent talent releases happened... WWE BACKLASH FALLOUT and what's being said about Asuka's status, as well as thoughts on John Cena's EPIC announcement that wasn't so epic after all... AEW hosts Collision on an INDOOR GOLF COURSE last night... Stephanie Vaquer's ex-boyfriend found guilty of domestic violence and a much more serious charge... and thoughts on topics for the new season of Dark Side of the Ring!

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite with Darby Allin defending the AEW World championship against Kevin Knight, while MJF forces MJF to put his HAIR on the line if he wants his rematch. Plus, Sting and Tony Schiavone pay tribute to Ted Turner. Outside of that, a pretty boring two hours of television.

On my trip home from Los Angeles, I finally watched THE BATMAN and I have some thoughts. But there's also a TON of news to dive into, including the SHOCKING departure of The New Day from WWE, why it happened and why this is the BEST possible thing that could happen for their careers. Plus, thoughts on more WWE releases with JC Mateo and Tonga Loa... Nick Khan uses OLD TWEETS in ludicrous fashion at a WWE town hall to defend against a "vocal minority" online... Smackdown moving BACK to two hours... ANOTHER CM Punk fan "incident" in Las Vegas, this time with a 911 call made (yes, really)... WWE BACKLASH PREDICTIONS and news on Roman Reigns being PULLED from all Raw events in June... GUNTHER attacks Cody Rhodes on Smackdown, what it means for Randy Orton and the DEATH OF THE GINGERBREAD MAN... TNA President Carlos Silva digs the hole deeper when it comes to why he pulled talents from recent bookings with AEW stars and a FULL REVIEW of the Hulk Hogan "Real American" Netflix documentary.

Solomonster is BACK and he's got a LOT to say about the latest wave of mass WWE releases on Friday, including one in particular that makes absolutely no sense, and the leaked Mark Shapiro audio about TKO having "full control" over things. Plus, thoughts on the death of former WCW star Van Hammer... Lucha Underground teasing a possible return... thoughts on Ric Flair's trainwreck interview with Ariel Helwani... thoughts on the CM Punk fan incident in Las Vegas and why WWE/TKO failed its talents when it comes to security... what Pat McAfee and Jelly Roll REALLY thought about their Wrestlemania roles and why their angle ended so abruptly... thoughts on the NXT callups to Raw and Smackdown... Darby Allin's first week as AEW World champion... and where does Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk rank in all-time Mania main events?

But this leaves Smamckdown weaker as a result... so what moves are we likely to see take hold on Friday?

Solomonster reviews WWE WrestleMania 42 Night Two from Las Vegas, a show that easily cleared Night 1 but the issues this year still remain. The over-commercialization of these events has come at the expense of the actual wrestling and that is a terrible thing. Nonetheless, Roman Reigns and CM Punk had an outstanding main event, Oba Femi slayed the beast and Brock Lesnar may have just retired... or did he?

Holy crap, this is a LOADED show! I've got thoughts on Tony Khan's interview with Jonathan Coachman and Vince Russo, plus a final preview and predictions for AEW DYNASTY TONIGHT... then I've got a lot to say about the latest terrible Pat McAfee segment on Smackdown where Randy Orton has become a BACKGROUND PLAYER in his own story... then it's a full preview and PREDICTIONS for both nights of WrestleMania 42... Paul Levesque comments on Cody Rhodes' podcast about when he felt like he officially took over from Vince McMahon, but also Jim Ross says he thinks McMahon will be INSTRUMENTAL in WrestleMania this year... what is going all with all of these Vince mentions lately??? TNA and Carlos Silva pull talents from matches with AEW stars just DAYS BEFORE these independent shows and MJF isn't the only one fuming mad about it... Alberto Del Rio ARRESTED in Mexico for alleged domestic violence (yes, again)... while Ric Flair says WWE is trying to DESTROY his legacy and is threatening to go nuclear on them this week. FYI, no Sound Off next Sunday, but lots of other content to look forward to!

Pat McAfee was on the phone with Randy Orton and how we got here is a terrible sign of what happens when corporate meddles in creative. I've got a LOT to get off my chest about this reveal, why it happened, who's responsible and what it has done to a WrestleMania main event that DID NOT NEED ANY OF THIS. Plus, thoughts on NXT Stand and Deliver last night... John Cena hosting WrestleMania and why it's happening... where things stand with the WrestleMania card with LA Knight, Carmelo Hayes and IYO SKY... new allegations in the latest filing from Janel Grant against Vince McMahon, Brock Lesnar and WWE... thoughts on Chris Jericho's return to AEW, last week's Dynamite show and DYNASTY PREDICTIONS... controversy over Mercedes Mone not losing her last independent title and why it happened... Willie Mack voices his frustration with Tony Khan and lack of bookings... and what would some of the Night 1 and Night 2 main events have looked like for past Wrestlemanias?

Solomonster reviews his latest bowel movement for April 3rd, or as he calls it, WWE Smackdown from St. Louis. Pat McAfee was revealed as Randy Orton's mystery caller and longs for the days of the Attitude Era as the current product sucks, the current champion sucks, WrestleMania isn't sold out and Smackdown recently had its lowest-rated episode ever (yes, these are all things that were said on TV). This is, by far, the worst show on television. Even if there are technically worse shows, I promise you they're not three hours every week. 💩 💩 💩

Ricochet's comment on Twitter this week was horrible enough, and I've got a lot to say about it, but the saddest tweet I've EVER covered in the history of the podcast was owned by someone else. I'll tell you who... plus thoughts on the death of Dennis Condrey, half of one of the all-time greatest tag teams, as well as the death of Chuck Norris... Dennis Rodman's induction into the WWE Hall of Fame... Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi shine while Roman Reigns and CM Punk DISAPPOINT... pitching an idea for Gunther for WrestleMania 42... how WWE Unreal has changed the way LA Knight conducts his business backstage... details on Tony Khan BIDDING to acquire WWE in 2023 and why this would have been a TERRIBLE thing... more on Ronda Rousey's AEW appearance and Toni Storm's sudden DIS-appearance... Ted DiBiase, Jr. acquitted of all charges against him... why Rick Martel belongs in the Hall of Fame... the return of American Gladiators... and HOLY S$%&, Scream 7 was terrible!

Kenny Omega, Will Ospreay, Adam Copeland and Christian Cage all returned. And oh yeah, Ronda Rousey showed up. Let's talk about a very long night of wrestling.

I've got a lot to say about the terrible OVW incident this week, plus final predictions for AEW Revolution tonight... why Will Ospreay got heat on social media this week... Swerve Strickland names his AEW Mount Rushmore and how mine compares to his... news on WWE's WrestleMania blackout on watch parties in Las Vegas... Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman reportedly not wanting Lesnar to lose until he retires... thoughts on Randy Orton's HEEL TURN (or was it really?) on Cody Rhodes and what doing it now and not at WrestleMania could mean... possible plans for Royce Keys at Mania and why it's not a bad idea... WWE reportedly to blame for NO MORE letter grades on ESPN.com PLE reviews, and how WWE can easily fix this if they're NOT responsible... how Sgt. Slaughter has given Hulk Hogan a run for his money with his own TALL TALES... the most shocking title changes in WWE history and my top three MOVIE DIRECTORS of all time!

Solomonster reviews a terrible episode of WWE Smackdown that at least ended with something interesting as Randy Orton turned heel on Cody Rhodes and left him in a pool of his own blood on the road to WrestleMania. But I just can't believe how boring this show is five weeks out from their biggest show of the year.

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Revolution this Sunday with a press conference for the AEW World championship match involving MJF and Hangman Adam Page. Sometimes, a simple contract signing will suffice. But at least we got Kyle Fletcher and Speedball Mike Bailey again and they did not disappoint.

I was away in Chicago on Friday and caught up with Smackdown late, so there's a lot to unpack! First of all, Road Dogg has quit his job on the WWE creative team and we have details as to why, plus Cody Rhodes is WWE champion again and I'm not sure why people are so upset about this given what some of them were saying two months ago. Plus, Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill's war of words on social media (work work work) fails to translate to compelling TV... the controversy around Gunther unmasking Dragon Lee on Raw... WWE planning for a record number of women's matches at WrestleMania this year and running through what those matches might be... DEMOLITION is taking their rightful place in the WWE Hall of Fame... the latest on AEW's future after the Warner Brothers Discovery acquisition by Paramount... AEW Revolution PREDICTIONS... and why you shouldn't expect to see Michael Hayes leaving WWE creative anytime soon.

I've got a LOT to say about last night's Elimination Chamber PLE and it's not great... but it's not all bad either as we got a MAJOR title match made for Smackdown, so the WWE title picture is getting interesting at just the right time. Plus, NXT Stand and Deliver moves AWAY from WrestleMania weekend and why that's a good thing... no plans for a WWE Draft in 2026 and why the draft DOESN'T WORK anymore... AJ Styles going into the Hall of Fame and claims WrestleMania has lost some of its luster... a DEEP DIVE into the latest shocker with Netflix walking away from its acquisition of WBD to pave the way for a Paramount/Skydance takeover and breaking down what it could mean for AEW (and a lot more than just AEW)... The Hurt Syndicate coming back at full strength shortly... John Laurinaitis is back with a quote so crazy I can hardly believe he even said it... and if I had the book, who I would build WWE around for the next five years and beyond!

Solomonster reviews the worst WWE Raw of the year and one of the most boring episodes he's ever seen, which is too bad because the closing segment with AJ Styles was a beautiful tribute to one of the greatest of all time. And now, he's Hall of Fame bound in 2026.

The SNOW IS COMING, but Solomonster is safe inside with LOTS to say about John Cena's interview on the No Contest Wrestling Podcast, including how he nearly won his record-breaking 17th World championship years ago at Summerslam (which somehow sounds worse than the way he won it last year), the man he was originally scheduled to wrestle at Crown Jewel (and it WASN'T AJ Styles) and more on his retirement tour... what Brock Lesnar MAY BE DOING on Raw tomorrow, and how AJ Styles and Gunther may not be finished just yet... THE MYSTERY CRATE and the latest on Chris Jericho's status... Elimination Chamber PREDICTIONS including a big twist coming for Randy Orton... Carmelo Hayes wants more storylines around the US title... Swerve Strickland TURNS HEEL on Kenny Omega after the best TV match all year... why the Hangman Page stipulation for his match with MJF wasn't needed but there IS a way around it... MJF and Andrade El Idolo get into it at the House of Glory show, plus the best time and place for a title match between the two, and so much more!

I've got a lot to say about AEW Grand Slam Australia and the Brody King controversy that erupted this week after Dave Meltzer's ERRONEOUS report about him being kept off TV by Warner Brothers Discovery. The CNN website even featured a story that focused a lot on Brody. What could this be leading to?... Paul Levesque rumored to be IN THE HOT SEAT as WWE calls an emergency meeting amid TKO concerns over lagging WrestleMania ticket sales, here are the REAL reasons why those sales are lagging and why they have no one to blame but themselves... where things stand for Elimination Chamber and rumors of a Brock Lesnar vs. LA Knight match for Mania... Kevin Nash has a NEW STORY about why his match with CM Punk in 2011 never happened... and reviewing the Wrestling Observer Newsletter 2025 Awards!

Plus, Roman's comments on Pat McAfee's show throwing shade at WWE creative... NXT General Manager Ava GONE from the company... thoughts on the GOOD AND BAD of WWE Unreal Season Two... Tommaso Ciampa wins the TNT title and explains his choice of AEW over renewing with WWE... is WWE really the best wrestling fit for ESPN... and some of the worst wrestling t-shirts of all time!

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw before the Royal Rumble with CM Punk giving AJ Styles a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship on a night where it truly felt like AJ is out the door after this weekend. But does that mean he's retired from WRESTLING or just from WWE?

Solomonster has thoughts on the fallout from Saturday Night's Main Event and PREDICTIONS for the Royal Rumble next weekend, plus news on a planned title match for WrestleMania and THE LIE being peddled about why another major match is no longer happening... Shinsuke Nakamura possibly spoils AJ Styles' retirement... STONE COLD coming back to WWE... TNA on AMC thoughts for week two, which was a step-up from the debut episode, but still not without its issues... thoughts on Trey Miguel being hired and then FIRED by AEW, what may have happened and why the whole situation is just really sad... The Hollywood Reporter "dishes" on AEW's future, but really says nothing of any real note... and what makes a TRUE main event player in wrestling?

RSPW Rewind returns after a lengthy absence with Episode 38 reviewing posts in the RSPW newsgroup and what wrestling fans were talking about (and complaining about) as far back as 1990! In this installment, there's a LOT of divided opinion about Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez, as well as John Cena after his WWE debut in 2002, right on through the early days of his first reign as WWE champion. I thought it would be appropriate to look back at the early days of Cena's career given his recent retirement. Enjoy!

TNA got off to a TERRIBLE start on AMC Thursday night and dropped the ball in so many ways, let's count them all... and then let's figure out what the issues were and how to address them. One of the biggest is that TNA seems to have an IDENTITY CRISIS that they need to resolve going forward. It doesn't help when you have people like Eric Bischoff for months saying TNA could become the #2 promotion when there's no reason to believe such a thing. To make matters worse, MOOSE went and stuck his foot in his mouth in a major way. Plus, WrestleMania 42 plans have reportedly been BLOWN UP... what that means for a Cody Rhodes heel turn... Saturday Night's Main Event predictions... Paramount continues to EMBARRASS itself in its pursuit of Warner Brothers Discovery... Powerhouse Hobbs GONE from AEW, rumors of a pending WWE signing and what would be the best place to start him... Tony Khan goes on a spending spree with The Rascalz and many others, but is it the sign of something big coming?... Rikishi shoots on WWE ticket prices and pitches a prime position for his sons at WrestleMania, and much more.

Solomonster reviews the TNA iMPACT premiere on AMC and, as network debuts go, this one was a disaster. Cannot imagine they made a single new fan with this show. Mike Santana is champion again, so that's something, but it was not enough to salvage an otherwise dreadful show that felt more like a DIET version of WWE than a promotion trying to carve out its own identity. Hopefully, they can find their footing in the weeks ahead, but as a first effort, this was a swing and a miss.

Bullet Club is dead, but its impact on the wrestling business will be felt for years to come. I'll talk about the group's legacy, the man responsible for it all and how it compares to the nWo. Plus, a preview for TNA's live debut on AMC this Thursday, including the match NO LONGER being advertised, AJ Styles announced for the show and rumors abound on Chris Jericho... another week and another LAWSUIT against WWE... the FALLOUT from Drew McIntyre winning the WWE championship, who his likely challenger will be at the Royal Rumble and what it means for WrestleMania, not only for McIntyre but for Cody Rhodes and others... the death of the Parents Television Council... and was WrestleMania X-Seven the PEAK of the wrestling business?

Solomonster reviews the first WWE Raw of 2026 with CM Punk defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Bron Breakker and TWO title changes on the show, which also set up a major match for Germany next week. Yet this was a perfect example of one of those WWE shows where things happen, but it largely feels lifeless and boring. An oh yeah, Je'Von Evans was announced as the newest addition to the Raw roster... during a commercial break.

Solomonster reacts to NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 20 at the Tokyo Dome and FOUR of the key matches on the show, including the retirement of Hiroshi Tanahashi against Kazuchika Okada, the greatest retirement ceremony ever with some big cameos (and a big name missing)... the crowning of a NEW IWGP World champion and the return of the greatest belt in wrestling... the debut of Aaron Wolf and the New Japan star who could be on his way out of the company.

Plus, lots of news on Vince McMahon's return to WWE creative in 2023... the HARD TRUTH about William Regal's warning to other wrestlers... the shoulder demon STRIKES AGAIN... Tommaso Ciampa leaving WWE... lots of new faces on Smackdown... Darby Allin's brother and his marriage proposal gone wrong... and the best & worst taglines in WWE history!

Solomonster reviews the first WWE Smackdown of 2026 with a return to THREE hours, as well as the return of Randy Orton and arrival of new faces like Matt Cardona, Trick Williams and Jordynne Grace. Drew McIntyre also names his stipulations for Three Stages of Hell with Cody Rhodes next week in Berlin, Giulia regains the Women's US title and Damian Priest ends his rivalry with Aleister Black in an Amublance Match. Certainly a newsworthy show, but was it a good one?

And I'm telling you, I think Nikki Bella is winning the Women's World Championship next week. I can't PROVE IT, but I can't shake the feeling either.

John Cena sat down with Cody Rhodes for his first interview post-retirement and had some WILD responses to his questions. I'll tell you what those were and give my thoughts on Bleacher Report giving an "F" grade to his retirement tour. Also, the ACCIDENTAL title change on NXT... MVP just cannot stop talking about Paul Levesque... where things stand with the Continental Classic and WORLDS END predictions... Wrestle Kingdom 20 preview and predictions, and how Tanahashi's final year stacks up with Cena's... 2025 YEAR IN REVIEW... plus my 2025 YEAR END AWARDS including Promotion of the Year, how they compare to the list released this week by Sports Illustrated and why all the drama around it this week is utterly embarrassing. Happy holidays!

John Cena's career is over. Gunther retired him on Saturday Night's Main Event and made Cena do the one thing he always preached NOT to do throughout his career, which is to never give up. I've got a lot of mixed feelings about this retirement run and will run through all of it, including my thoughts on Cena's legacy and why I thought doing that finish the way they did last night was the wrong move. I'm also ranking the 15 BEST MATCHES of John Cena's career, giving my thoughts on the NXT talents that were showcased last night, the two big milestones reached by AEW's partner promotions and why certain wrestlers get held back because they're TOO GOOD at their job. Yes, it can happen.

Reviewing WWE Smackdown with lots of new NXT faces making appearances ahead of Saturday Night's Main Event, Dragunov BLEEDS in a banger for the US title, a scary main event where it's a miracle Zelina didn't break her neck and the start date confirmed for THREE HOURS of Smackdown. I am in mourning.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw with another main event loss for LA Knight, only this time, he's clearly been written off TV. Hopefully he's just getting a well-deserved vacation but the reality is, when someone talks smack the way he does and repeatedly fails to back it up, you develop a stigma. Not something a heel turn may not be able to fix, but even still, the booking needs to be there to support it. Whether that is the case here remains to be seen, but it's not a good look.

The BLOCKBUSTER deal for Netflix to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery has shaken up the entertainment world, but it also has very real implications for the pro wrestling world and we'll get into what those look like. For the record, the reports of AEW's pending demise have been greatly exaggerated. Also, we'll discuss TNA's new media rights deal with AMC Networks, when the first LIVE show will take place, what it means for their partnership with WWE/NXT and the CRAZY RIDE that show has taken over the years from one network to the next. Plus, one former WWE writer claims ESPN executives are NOT HAPPY with their WWE partnership so far... what creative may look like for both World titles heading into WrestleMania 42, including a possible Cody Rhodes HEEL TURN... thoughts on Oba Femi challenging Cody next weekend... making the case for John Cena to BEAT GUNTHER at Saturday Night's Main Event... Cena tells Bill Simmons it takes FIVE YEARS to get over and why that's bullshit... Cena also speaks on why his heel turn failed, and I'll give you the REAL reason the whole thing was destined to fail from day one... Cena and WWE being SUED over his entrance music... the WWE libraries are leaving Peacock soon and what that means for the future... AEW Continental Classic updates and a WINTER IS COMING preview... thoughts on Kendal Grey from NXT... and is "Stone Cold" Steve Austin OVERRATED by fans?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown with the Finals of the John Cena "Last Time Is Now" tournament and it went the way we all thought it would. But Gunther hasn't just promised to beat Cena, he says he's gonna tap him out. Can you imagine? You spend 20 years telling kids to never give up, only to give up in your final match. Plus, Cody Rhodes gets an NXT opponent for SNME, and they're still DESPERATELY waiting for Bianca Belair to return.

He was waiting on an angle with the Death Riders after, but that angle never came. Plus, Samoa Joe and Eddie Kingston face off ahead of their AEW championship match at Winter Is Coming next week and hardcore garbage infects the Women's Tag Team Championship tournament.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw after Survivor Series as Triple H promised us an EPIC SHOW. We didn't get an epic show, but what we got was largely good stuff with Jey Uso and LA Knight fighting for the right to lose to Gunther in the finals of "The Last Time Is Now" tournament, while Gunther and Solo Sikoa had a MUCH better match than most people expected. Plus, Bron Breakker has a date for his World championship match with CM Punk and just cut his best promo yet, and Liv Morgan has already made it clear who the REAL leader of the Judgment Day is.

Solomonster reviews WWE Survivor Series War Games 2025 and having seen all of them dating back nearly four decades, this will definitely not rank among the best they've ever produced. There were things to like and plenty to NOT like, so let's dive right into it, shall we?

Survivor Series was a huge letdown last night for so many different reasons, let me count all the ways and explain why, including one terrible direction they appear to be taking for WrestleMania. Plus, they've somehow underwhelmed even MORE with this John Cena "Last Time Is Now" tournament, and why Cena should probably beat Gunther in his final match. Plus, Dave Meltzer claims WWE has pitched a retirement storyline to Chris Jericho... Andrade speaks out about his WWE noncompete and where things stand... Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch make headlines with a podcast interview... AEW Continental Classic thoughts so far... Ric Flair claims STREET DRUGS are what killed Hulk Hogan... the end of the Monster Factory... dream matches that both exceeded expectations and fell short of them... and the story of the Kevin Nash MTV Spring Break incident.

The Last Time Is Now tournament is nearing its end, even though we already KNOW who John Cena's final opponent will be. But I have a lot to say about the tournament so far, and Cena's final Raw appearance on one of the best episodes all year, plus all the latest War Games developments with my SURVIVOR SERIES PREDICTIONS. Then I've got a LOT to unpack from Tony Khan's interview with Ariel Helwani and how it compares to their (disastrous) first interview, and what we learned about the CM Punk/Jack Perry footage airing on TV, WWE counter-programming his company, the future of Adam Cole and his weird Ghostbusters analogy... then a FULL REVIEW for AEW Full Gear 2025, including FOUR new champions crowned and the return of a former AEW World champion. Let's see how my thoughts match up with yours. Plus, TNA draws interest from a network you might not expect, and WWE gets some competition on Netflix next summer!

Solomonster reviews the go home show to AEW Full Gear with a THREE HOUR Dynamite/Collision combo, and I'll keep shitting on these until the end of time because THIS DOES NOT WORK. It didn't start off badly, but it was a dead show by the end. Kenny Omega is back, Mascara Dorada almost died twice against Okada and Mercedes Mone notches one last win before she LOSES on Saturday, mark my words.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw from Madison Square Garden, one of the best episodes of the year and the last time we will ever see John Cena on the show as an active performer. His Survivor Series path is now clear, as are the WAR GAMES teams after some MAJOR returns in the form of Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns. Plus, AJ Lee returns to cost Becky Lynch her Intercontinental championship and a current TNA star appears in the Last Time Is Now tournament!

Smackdown is moving back to three hours in January and since it's happening anyway, there are changes that need to be made first if this is not going to suck. Plus, I've got thoughts on Elimination Chamber coming to the United Center in Chicago... John Cena's final Raw match at MSG and the state of this Last Time Is Now tournament... where things stand with WAR GAMES... LOLTNA lives on as Mike Santana loses the TNA World championship in the worst possible way... AJ Styles talks about the lost art of SELLING in wrestling and why he's right... AEW Full Gear predictions and MVP's latest comments on Paul Levesque (is he truly a changed man?)... thoughts on the PWI Top 250 list of greatest women's wrestlers... and where does John Cena rank on MY greatest of all time list?

I'm opening with some heartfelt words about the 18 year anniversary of this show and I hope you all will listen. Then we get into the news with how the WAR GAMES matches look to be shaping up... thoughts on the initial matches in the John Cena tournament... BURYING the state of Smackdown right now, why the show needs an overhaul and why their continued reliance on all things Bloodline is part of the problem... one TKO exec saying they need to move away from Vince McMahon-created legacy PLE names... thoughts on the Ridge Holland mess and the GoFundMe that he now claims he never even approved... ANOTHER championship coming soon to AEW... two wrestlers, including one former WWE star, WALK OUT before AEW Collision after not liking their plans... Tanahashi's final opponent REVEALED for Wrestle Kingdom... what if Bam Bam Bigelow had gone to the NWA and not WWE... and what is the most realistic pro wrestling match you've ever seen?

Logan Paul is back and appears to be aligning with The Vision for War Games, while Rey Mysterio returned to confront his son (or is it?), plus Becky Lynch is losing her mind and the first two matches announced in the John Cena LAST TIME IS NOW tournament.

YouTube TV continues its vendetta against its own customers, but I've also got news on Mike Rotunda's health... Saturday Night's Main Event fallout including the absolute STATE of Jey Uso in that main event last night, CM Punk winning the World championship and MAJOR news on how WWE intends to decide John Cena's final opponent (no, it will not be Adam Copeland)... the NXT star vowing to avenge his father's humiliation against Cena... Men's and Women's BLOOD AND GUTS teams revealed... Takeshita gets his challenger for the Tokyo Dome, and the likely name to wrestle Tanahashi in his final match at Wrestle Kingdom... the class action lawsuit against Logan Paul gets dismissed... VINCE RUSSO is back in wrestling in 2025... why we need more SHORT TITLE REIGNS in wrestling... and the best DQ or count out finishes of all time!

MACHO MONSTER reviews the Halloween edition of WWE Smackdown on the eve of SNME, a snoozefest of an episode outside of another excellent US Title Open Challenge match with Ilja Dragunov. Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre did add some intriguing stipulations to their championshiop match that would make you think Drew is winning the title, but... not so fast. Plus, we got a match with two college football mascots that included an amazing reference to BEARCAT LEE.

This was as enjoyable an episode of Dynamite as we've had in some time.

Maybe neither man will win... because there really isn't much to this match. Plus, Sheamus cranks out another banger and a very good main event for the Women's tag team titles. And who's behind these mystery vignettes? The answer will disappoint you.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Tempe, AZ with Jade Cargill returning and TURNING HEEL on Tiffany Stratton, plus Ilja Dragunov defends the US Title in an Open Challenge to keep the series alive (hooray!) and Drew McIntyre leaves Cody Rhodes laying heading into their championship showdown at SNME.

Solomonster reviews the post WrestleDream edition of AEW Dynamite and boy they sure are continuing with virtually EVERY FEUD coming out of that PPV, including Darby and the Death Riders. There is a clear path to Blood & Guts and Full Gear forming though. He also reveals the brackets for the Women's Tag Team Title Tournament and explains why Mercedes "12 Belts" MUST FAIL AT FULL GEAR in her match with Kris Statlander.

It was a busy week with LOTS of news about Andrade's vanishing act from AEW and how he may not be free from WWE's clutches just yet... Seth Rollins INJURED and OUT of The Vision, with a major angle on Raw last Monday, why this can be a great thing and where things may be headed next... Jacob Fatu ALSO INJURED with conflicting reports about how long he may be out for... plus a FULL REVIEW for AEW WrestleDream, which was a strong show not without its flaws... news on Ridge Holland's release, A.I. usage in the WWE writer's room, the things that were BETTER under Vince McMahon than TKO and how Bret Hart's WCW debut SHOULD HAVE been booked.

Solomonster reviews another strong episode of WWE Smackdown with an impromptu match between Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre, an angle to write Jacob Fatu off TV and an idea for a wild twist when he returns, while the US Title Open Challenge brings the return of an injured star and a NEW champion crowned.

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before WrestleDream, which was a THREE HOUR SHOW with Collision tacked on at the end. These three hour blocks need to die in a fire. The only thing of any great value was an INCREDIBLE cinematic face-to-face with Jon Moxley and Darby Allin that was giving off Batman/Joker interrogation scene vibes. Whoever produced that needs to do MORE OF THAT. The rest of this show felt very flat and uninspired.

Just because it's been a slow news week doesn't mean there isn't stuff to talk about, including another epic Mets collapse with a $300 million dollar payroll. Solomonster previews WWE Crown Jewel with predictions for each of the matches, why the Bloodline still works and the MFTs never will, and a possible Randy Orton heel turn... thoughts on NXT and TNA setting up their teams for their SHOWDOWN this week, a great promo from Mustafa Ali, the latest on a possible TNA TV deal and the effect Nielsen's new ratings measurement system could have on things... Andrade's return to AEW, why he called out Dave Meltzer and why history is already doomed to repeat itself... WrestleKingdom 20 news and it's a plus for New Japan... Braun Strowman wants to be the next JASON VOORHIES... Bad Bunny as the Superbowl halftime performer... how AJ Styles' first year in WWE compares to other great rookie years in the company... and what would a John Cena retirement run look like in AEW?

Reviewing WWE Raw with the return (yes, again) of Roman Reigns and Jimmy Uso doesn't seem happy with the influence he seems to be wielding over his brother. Plus, I dare say something negative about IYO SKY's acting in one segment on this TV show and get attacked for it, so we have some fun with the sickos as well.

After a writer for ESPN gave Wrestlepalooza a "C" grade, some fans lost their minds, and even some within WWE were taken aback by this. Solomonster explains why this is a GOOD thing and why people like JBL saying the writer should just LIE AND PRETEND IT WAS GOOD is a very bad thing. Plus, news on the alternate match ending pitched by Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre for their main event... an update on a future John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar match and who Cena's final opponents should be... how Cena's match with AJ Styles came together for Crown Jewel and AJ gives us an update on his future... breaking down the Top 25 rankings for the annual PWI 500 list and how Masha Slamovich's ranking sparked an entire controversy EXPOSING a dark side to her that not many knew about... the upcoming NXT/TNA INVASION, thoughts on Oba Femi losing the NXT championship to Ricky Saints and how to bring Oba up to the main roster... a missed opportunity for the 6 YEAR ANNIVERSARY episode of Dynamite this week... Tony Khan introduces AEW Women's tag team titles... ranking four of the most legendary referees... did Bret Hart introduce the table spot to mainstream pro wrestling... the night Vince McMahon interrupted a match between Rhyno and Tajiri... and the wrestlers who wasted their own potential and blew up their careers!

I've got a LOT to say about the WWE and AEW shows this weekend with thoughts on WRESTLEPALOOZA, including the John Cena/Brock Lesnar match, what War Games could look like at Survivor Series and the first name already announced for the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame. Then it's a full review for AEW ALL OUT, which I believe was the stronger show of the weekend... how the AEW tag team division has finally been revived... Tony Khan's reaction to the idea of running a major show WrestleMania weekend in 2027... NXT Homecoming thoughts, a possible TNA invasion coming and what's being said about Joe Hendry's future... wrestlers who would make great movie characters... the greatest African-American female wrestler of all time... thoughts on Bret Hart's latest comments about Triple H... and who are the current 4 Pillars of AEW?

WrestleMania is headed to SAUDI ARABIA for the first time in 2027, which is hardly as "game-changing" as WWE would have you believe, though it might be for their WALLETS. Solomonster recaps the announcement from Friday, what is being said about the money involved and why this presents a big opportunity to someone to step in and fill the void left behind that weekend. Also, BREAKING NEWS on Andrade being released by WWE, what is now being reported about the disciplinary reasons that likely factored into the decision and lots more. PLUS... one TKO exec spills the beans on why things are gonna get worse before they get better when it comes to WWE ticket prices... WRESTLEPALOOZA PREDICTIONS... Jerry Lawler suffers another stroke... how Paramount's bid to buy Warner Brothers Discovery could impact AEW... the original plan for Hangman Page at All Out and where Wardlow has been... AEW ALL OUT PREDICTIONS... the tragic death of a young AJPW rookie... reacting to Ronda Rousey's comments about working with Alexa Bliss... where Jon Moxley would be right now had he stayed with WWE... the HATE in some circles for Mercedes Mone... and great examples of foreshadowing in pro wrestling!

Wardlow has already been reduced to background noise with the Callis Family and Mercedes NINE BELTS could be anyl ess interesting than she is right now, so it was a mixed bag to be sure.

Solomonster is in a battle of survival with a colony of YELLOW JACKETS but he still reviews AEW Forbidden Door 2025, which doesn't feel so "forbidden" anymore. But the show still offered some good action, along with some nonsense mixed in, new tag team champions crowned and a Michael Oku spot on the PRE-SHOW that stole the show and is something we never need to see ever again.

Rumors are swirling that TNA may land a deal with The CW Network or A&E and may well shift its TV to Wednesdays to directly compete with AEW. But make no mistake, this all ties into something far more than competition... WWE is on a mission to destroy AEW. I'll explain it all, including recent news on WWE booking a main roster PLE with John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar to run opposite All Out, and potentially booking John Cena's retirement match to air opposite Worlds End. TNA is just their useful idiot in a much larger game they're playing. ALSO... thoughts on the Karrion Kross interview with Ariel Helwani and why it would make NO SENSE for him to land in AEW... thoughts on the Hulk Hogan TMZ special on FOX and Vince McMahon's first interview since resigning from TKO... my TRIPLEMANIA XXXIII REVIEW as even more WWE elements seep into the product and how the lucha libre scene is thriving right now... AEW FORBIDDEN DOOR PREDICTIONS with thoughts on Konosuke Takeshita and the G1 Climax... and ranking the greatest BABYFACE TURNS in wrestling history. Plus, I saw WEAPONS in the theater and finally saw some other horror flicks, including Sinners, and have thoughts on that too!

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Boston, but wonders why he even bothered to do so. It didn't help that they were missing practically ALL of their major names, but that's no excuse to produce dreadfully boring, lifeless television like this. He tries to highlight the few bright spots and otherwise is brutally honest with his assessment of this show (and the SD women's title scene).

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite from Cincinnati and there was a LOT to digest on this show, maybe a little TOO MUCH. But with Forbidden Door less than two weeks away, it felt like they were rushing through things like the Adam Copeland/Christian Cage reunion, and the throwaway announcement that Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi will be returning at the PPV as part of a 10-man LIGHTS OUT steel cage match. Hangman Page also goaded MJF into cashing in his title match contract at Forbidden Door, but MJF had the last laugh by the end of the show.

Hulk Hogan passed away this week at the age of 71. He is the most famous pro wrestler of all time, but his death has triggered a LOT of different emotions from fans as they debate what kind of legacy he leaves behind. I have my own thoughts to share about Hogan's life... the good, the bad and the ugly, and the social media reaction to this news. You may agree, you may not agree, but I hope you will give it a listen and respect the honest, unfiltered opinion. Beyond that, I've got SUMMERSLAM 2025 predictions... thoughts on Eric Bischoff's comments on TNA soon surpassing AEW... where I think things are headed with MJF and The Hurt Syndicate and more.

Tonight, I'm covering TNA SLAMMIVERSARY (yes, really) with the return of AJ Styles, but first, I'm running down the card from top to bottom and giving my predictions... plus, the latest on the Seth Rollins "injury" and where my head is at on whether or not the whole thing is a work or not... Roman Reigns and John Cena back on WWE TV this week, and that contract signing on Friday night sure was something else, but it's also fueled some fan theories online about a possible DOUBLE TURN at Summerslam and maybe even the inclusion of THE ROCK... I'll explain why I think Rock being involved would be a TERRIBLE IDEA... Goldberg plays VICTIM when it comes to his retirement match and complains about it on Ariel Helwani's show and I've been waiting all week to address this... Buff Bagwell undergoes a leg amputation... Hulk Hogan's beer company gets SUED and he's still nowhere to be found after two months... the TOP 10 WOMEN in wrestling today and more!

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown with John Cena and Cody Rhodes signing the contract for their Summerslam title match, even though it would never hold up in a court of law. Jacob Fatu nearly get arrested after a hit and run snafu and gets his rematch with Solo Sikoa, but it was the tag teams that stole the show on this night.

Solomonster reviews the post-All In Texas edition of AEW Dynamite from the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, hardly a blowaway show or anything but one that forwarded some new directions and offered some good in-ring action. Lots of promos from the new AEW World champion, Hangman Adam Page, as well as MJF, Toni Storm, Adam Copeland and... The Matriarchy?!

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw coming out of Evolution, which felt like Evolution CONTINUED as the first half of the show was dominated by the ladies, including the announcement of a major championship match for Summerslam. But it was all about the return of ROMAN REIGNS after the main event gauntlet match that saw CM Punk earn the right to challenge Gunther for the title. The Summerslam card has already been pretty well fleshed out and he goes into detail on it, plus why he now believes the Seth Rollins "injury" from SNME may NOT be as it seems.

There may not be a ton of news to dive into, but there's PLENTY to say when it comes to WWE's lack of effort when it comes to promoting Evolution next Sunday. I'm running down the full card as it stands with predictions, and doing the same for Saturday Night's Main Event and Goldberg's retirement match. Also, Cody Rhodes lands a role in the new Street Fighter movie and John Cena drops a hint about the timing of his own retirement match. Plus, reports about Britt Baker and her alleged UNHAPPINESS with her position in AEW and thoughts about that whole situation. AEW All In Texas is less than a week away and I've got a FULL preview and predictions, and then it's a MONSTER MAILBAG with your questions on everything from the Summerslam main event to Tony Khan touting AEW's ratings growth to the greatest AEW matches and PPVs of all time to 80s/90s movies and RANKING all 12 Friday the 13th movies from best to worst.

Solomonster reviews the post-Money in the Bank edition of WWE Raw, which he thought was the best Raw all year with a surprise title change in the main event (and without a cash in!), CM Punk and John Cena set a date to meet for the WWE championship, Ron Killings cuts off his hair and sheds the skin of R-Truth, the returns of Bayley and Nikki Bella, and FIRST ROUND matches in the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments! He also believes he SEES THE VISION for Sami Zayn heading into 2026. Do you agree?

I've got a MONSTER SHOW with reviews for WWE/AAA Worlds Collide (Mr. Iguana!!!) and Money in the Bank 2025, including the SHOCKING return of R-Truth, but can we call it a return when he never really left? The debate is already raging on about whether it was all a work or a shoot and I've got thoughts on that, too... Mariah May makes her NXT debut... multiple arrests outside the WWE Performance Center... Goldberg concerns ahead of his retirement match... the death of Julia Reilly a/k/a Claire Lynch in TNA and background on her infamous storyline with AJ Styles... and one last DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on the quick rise (and even quicker fall) of Muhammad Hassan in WWE, and possible topics for another season.

Reviewing the Dynamite portion of AEW Fyter Fest 2025, which was a FOUR-HOUR show with Collision folllowing right after, and I just wasn't waiting around until midnight for a Paragon trios match. That said, while the wrestling was good, there wasn't much else to really hang your hat on here, but I did also talk the GIANT GALACTUS POPCORN VESSEL coming with next month's Fantastic Four movie. That thing is ridiculous.

As with Sabu's death a few weeks ago, Solomonster is hit with BREAKING NEWS as he's recording on R-Truth announcing he's been released by WWE (or is not being renewed) and he gives his thoughts... plus, John Laurinaitis flips on Vince McMahon AGAIN and addressing these rumors of Vince wanting to buy back WWE... lots of NXT callups as JACY JAYNE (!?!!) wins the NXT Women's Championship and the AEW star that may soon be taking that title from her... PREDICTIONS for WWE/AAA Worlds Collide and Money in the Bank, including who takes both briefcases, and Triple H NOT A FAN of MITB?... heat on Kyle Fletcher for needlessly stupid spot on AEW Dynamite... Ric Flair takes the gold for SAD TWEET with one of the most disgraceful comments you'll ever see, and why he likely did it... and a DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on the life and tragic death of Shannon "Daffney" Spruill, including a LOT more details on how TNA really let her (and other Knockouts) down during the period where she worked there. This will be eye-opening for a lot of you.

This week, I've got more thoughts on the death of ECW legend Sabu, including Rob Van Dam on why a cause of death has yet to be revealed, and a Yahoo Sports article with quotes from Joey Janela that made GCW come across very badly. There's a larger problem here with the business itself that should be recognized, but likely won't be. Plus, Mark Shapiro talks WWE ticket prices... talk of Cody Rhodes possibly going heel... the Smackdown star that DESPERATELY needs to be moved to Monday Night Raw... Saturday Night's Main Event predictions... TNT abruptly ends AEW Collision 30 minutes early last night and why it happened... the card as it stands and predictions for AEW Double or Nothing... the TNA President comments on the company's supposed "blood ban"... this week's installment of REAL AMERICAN BULLS**T with Hulk Hogan... a DOUBLE DOSE of Dark Side of the Ring recaps on Eddie Gilbert and Billy Jack Haynes... and who would you delete from WWE history among the names given?

As I was recording this, I got the news that ECW legend Sabu has passed away at the age of 60. You get my reaction in real time to the news and thoughts on his legacy, plus thoughts on WWE Backlash, the final John Cena vs. Randy Orton match and where Cena goes from here... an update on the WWE/AAA deal and the status of Alberto Del Rio... former WWE star Duke "The Dumpster" Droese INDICTED on a disturbing charge... Ricochet and Je'Von Evans battle it out for Sad Tweet honors... Shelton Benjamin responds to Hulk Hogan getting his name wrong TWICE... and when did kicking out of and spamming finishers become the norm in wrestling? Happy Mother's Day, mom.

Solomonster drops a special Sound Off Extra reacting to the fallout from the WrestleMania 41 main event and The Rock missing from the show, as well as his comments on The Pat McAfee Show attempting to do damage control after the criticism that has come his way. Some of his comments were very revealing, but it doesn't change the fact that his participation in the angle leading up to the show was completely unnecessary and actually did more harm than good.

A very newsworthy show.

Solomonster reviews WWE WrestleMania 41 Night 2 with John Cena making history by beating Cody Rhodes to win his 17th World championship with an assist from Travis Scott, a nut shot and a belt shot. That makes two straight nights of low blows deciding the finish to the Mania main event, on a night where even The Rock could not be bothered to appear despite interjecting himself into this storyline to set this all up. Despite that terrible main event, the show as a whole was much stronger than Saturday's effort.

Solomonster reviews WWE WrestleMania 41 Night One with Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Seth Rollins in the main event with a shocking twist (to some, anyway) involving Paul Heyman, Jey Uso challenges for the World Heavyweight Title and more.

I'm hungover from WrestleMania Night 1 and here to talk about what we saw in that main event with Paul Heyman BETRAYING CM Punk and Roman Reigns and leaving with Seth Rollins, what it could mean for tonight's main event with Cody Rhodes and John Cena, Jey Uso winning the World championship and more. Plus, the BOMBSHELL announcement that WWE has acquired the AAA promotion in Mexico, what it means for the future of lucha libre and the Worlds Collide show coming in June... THREE NAMES GONE from New Japan, including one of its biggest stars in a shocker... Nick Khan's comments on AEW benching talent and Triple H's comments about fans being critical of the product... Mariah May possibly leaving AEW for WWE... one of the best episodes of Dynamite in AEW history... and my FULL REVIEW for WWE's WrestleMania IX documentary on Peacock, including the drama around Hulk Hogan's black eye and the controversial main event finish.

Solomonster reviews the Spring Breakthru episode of AEW Dynamite from Boston, passing WCW Monday Nitro in total episodes on the Turner networks, and they could not have picked a better night to do so. One of the very best episodes of Dynamite they've ever done. Mercedes and Athena battle for the first time, Will Ospreay and Konosuke Takeshita tear the house down and The Death Riders are DETHRONED for the Trios titles. Let's talk about it.

Solomonster reviews the final WWE Raw before WrestleMania 41 with Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Seth Rollins all appearing and Paul Heyman, as usual, being at the center of their story. If you were excited for Mania coming into this show, you're still excited. If you weren't, then this show did not do anything to change your mind.

Solomonster remembers Kevin Scondotto, better known as Kevin Castle of the DTKC Show, who passed away this week long before he should have. He also discusses The Rock getting people talking with his New Japan shirt... the list of inductors for the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame and who's missing from the list... just when you think Def Rebel and WWE Music couldn't get any worse, it somehow does... WRESTLEMANIA 41 PREDICTIONS running down the matches for each night, the build to this year's show and who's walking out as WWE Champion... AEW Dynasty fallout, the Young Bucks explain their actions, the latest on PAC's injury status and the lineup for this week's Spring Breakthru show... a DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on Big Van Vader, one of the greatest debuts of all time and why it almost didn't happen, popping his EYEBALL back into his head, the Hulk Hogan feud that never took off, why things went sour with his WWE run, being held hostage in Kuwait and his match with Will Ospreay... the best wrestling pre-match video packages and more!

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Seattle with a show that may be considered fine on most weeks, but a week out from WrestleMania, was a very lackluster effort. Cody Rhodes is still doing his best to get over the importance of his match with John Cena, while Chelsea Green and Zelina Vega are trying to make the most of the 60 seconds they're given on this three hour show... and the lineups for both nights of WrestleMania have been REVEALED.

There was a report this week that AEW is averaging an extra 500,000 weekly Dynamite viewers on MAX and all hell broke loose on social media. I've got thoughts on the report, what it does and does NOT mean and why it really doesn't matter. Plus, final DYNASTY PREDICTIONS and thoughts on the Owen Hart tournament brackets... John Cena finally engaging with Cody Rhodes on Monday night... CM Punk's favor from Paul Heyman... Kevin Owens OUT of WrestleMania and more details about what caused the injury, plus what to do with Randy Orton now... the TRAINWRECK with Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton on Friday and what's being said about heat on Charlotte for it... why John Cena's Looney Tunes movie will finally see the light of day... a DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on Tony Halme a/k/a Ludvig Borga who made more of an impact outside the wrestling ring than he ever did in it (and why that's not necessarily a good thing)... and why it doesn't matter that John Cena was never the greatest wrestler in the world when he was on top and fans sometimes forget that being the best wrestler DOESN'T MATTER.

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Dynasty which, as a go home show, was nothing special at all. We did get an interesting interaction with Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page near the end of the show that may play into the main event on Sunday, plus the men's and women's brackets REVEALED for the Owen Hart Foundation tournaments.

It's a PACKED news week with thoughts on the TNA management shakeup and a SHOCKING departure... why the John Cena heel turn just isn't hitting the way I expected it to... CM Punk gets his WrestleMania main event and why it was the right choice, what his favor could be from Paul Heyman and why it's time to have a conversation about a BIG change to the Royal Rumble... the first MATCH to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and why it is the GREATEST MATCH in WWE history... Tony Khan celebrates AEW Dynamite passing WCW Monday Nitro in total episodes and why people are fake outraged about it... AEW Dynasty preview and PREDICTIONS... thoughts on Mercedes Mone and Athena both declaring for the Owen Hart Foundation tournament... Hulk Hogan back in the news with more FAMILY DRAMA, this time surrounding the Hogan women, and why his daughter has cut off contact with both her parents... a DARK SIDE OF THE RING REVIEW on Mick Foley and the Hell in a Cell match between Mankind and The Undertaker... Mandy Rose cries about Stephanie Vaquer being declared the first female double champion in NXT... THREE WrestleMania matches to show to a non-wrestling fan... John Cena's FIVE BEST Mania matches... and was Adam Copeland's return to wrestling a mistake?

It was a newsworthy week with John Cena's first HEEL PROMO in more than two decades, so how did he do? Plus, CM Punk and Seth Rollins confront Roman Reigns on Smackdown and... I was expecting more. Tiffany Stratton also had a BAD NIGHT opposite Charlotte Flair, and I'll discuss what the WrestleMania 41 card is looking like right now. Lex Luger wants STING to induct him into the Hall of Fame and WWE is said to be trying to make it happen, but are they really just publicly putting pressure on Tony Khan? Also, TWO MORE names rumored for the Hall of Fame... running through this year's Slammy Awards categories... Jon Moxley tries to MAIM himself on AEW Dynamite... Jeff Jarrett says he LOVES tribalism among wrestling fans, why I respect him coming out and saying it and why I also think it's a terrible thing... triumph and tragedy on the independent scene... one female casual fan's perspective on WWE... names that never lived up to their potential in WWE... the plans for RVD's title run in 2006 had he not gotten busted... would Bret Hart have fit in the Attitude Era... and can Finn Balor be saved or is he DAMAGED GOODS?

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for March 19th with Jon Moxley and Adam Copeland trying to erase the memory of their terrible main event at Revolution with a rematch for the AEW World title, a match that took a grotesque turn.

We got more details this week about how the WWE ID program works, or did we? Dave Meltzer reported something in this week's Observer that he later scrubbed, and I've got an update on the whole situation. Plus, Jeff Cobb possibly coming to WWE... JD McDonagh speaks for the first time on his injuries from Raw two months ago... Tommy Dreamer challenges fans to find a better steel cage match than CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins, so CHALLENGE ACCEPTED... NXT Roadblock thoughts for what was the best wrestling show on TV all week... AEW Revolution fallout and the latest on Dynamite for this week... and a HULK HOGAN segment that will brighten your week, including comments from Scott Steiner, The Undertaker, the Survivor Series 1991 story and why Hogan made LITTLE KIDS CRY recently, with some very irate fans who felt betrayed at a recent meet-and-greet for Hogan's new Real American Beer (this is a segment not to be missed!)... the BEST pull-apart brawls in wrestling history... why is Ivan Koloff NOT in the Hall of Fame?

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Revolution and offers an updated prediction for where he thinks things may be headed in the main event on Sunday. There's a very good chance we're getting a new AEW World champion crowned, but it's likely not who you think! Plus, AEW does publicity for the new Queen of the Ring movie and ignores one of its own stars being in the film (in a fairly major role, too), and naming the person that should be the one to beat Mercedes Mone for the TBS championship.

Elimination Chamber was one of the most SHOCKING nights in WWE history with the John Cena heel turn I thought we would never see. And just like that, the road to WrestleMania just got a hell of a lot more interesting. We need to dissect this thing from top to bottom, what made it work so well, where it may be headed, what it means for CM Punk's road to Las Vegas and what all of this says about Cody Rhodes as THE MAN in WWE. PLUS, why morale is said to be fading fast among WWE employees... Vince McMahon rumored to be starting a new wrestling promotion on FOX... and an NXT REVIEW with thoughts on the big matches signed for Roadblock, the return of the Hardys and the in-ring debut of Ricky Saints.

THE ROCK returned to Smackdown on Friday to make a major announcement and to call out Cody Rhodes, and what followed was one of the most bizarre segments I've ever seen. I've got a LOT to say about the segment itself, some inconsistencies from last year and the potentially GREAT story that could come out of it heading into WrestleMania. PLUS... Elimination Chamber predictions... backstage frustration in the WWE women's locker room... Ricky Starks gets a NEW NAME and talks backstage politicking in AEW... Carmella gone from WWE... Michael Cole's comments on Logan Paul's podcast... Shane McMahon GHOSTED by Tony Khan and why he was right to do it... a different twist on the Jade Cargill attacker angle... why Alex Wright never came to WWE... and who is Mister IN YOUR HOUSE?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from New Orleans with The Rock returning to make a MAJOR announcement for WrestleMania next year, but also to call out Cody Rhodes in one of the most bizarre segments you'll ever see. He discusses what he thinks it all means, and it could take things in some very interesting directions, but that doesn't make the segment any less weird. But thankfully he was there because outside of that segment, this show is stuck IN THE MUD.

There's so much to cover, my head is spinning this week! I've got reviews for BOTH NXT Vengeance Day and AEW Grand Slam Australia and which one I liked more... Tony Khan releases THREE NAMES early from their AEW contracts and one of them is already on WWE TV... Road Dogg named the new co-lead writer for Smackdown and what it means... running down the card for WrestleMania 41 as it currently appears and addressing concerns about the show feeling LACKLUSTER this year... the latest WWE Hall of Fame induction and another that seems a hell of a lot more likely than it ever was before... Hulk Hogan facing a LAWSUIT over his beer... TNA star Chris Bey finally breaks his silence on his injury... some hidden gems shared by Gerald Brisco... the "cool thing" to hate on AEW... one way to SPICE UP the Royal Rumble matches... the greatest gimmick NOT created by Vince McMahon... and remembering MTV's Wrestling Society X!

As a go-home show to Grand Slam, it was pretty weak, but on the whole, this was another solid effort coming off a strong week of TV.

It's a SUPERBOWL-SIZED SOUND OFF with thoughts on nearly a dozen WWE talent releases, only one of which was truly a head-scratcher... the BIG difference between Jey Uso and Charlotte Flair's promos on Raw coming off their Royal Rumble wins... Raw on Netflix viewership continues to DROP and why that may change come April... the latest edition of Hulk Hogan in FANTASY LAND as he explains the REAL reason why he was booed on Raw (it's a whopper), plus The Undertaker and Seth Rollins chime in with their thoughts on Hogan being booed... Tony Khan FIRES an AEW talent and the reason why... fan outrage over Grand Slam Australia and the lack of refunds being offered... two REALLY good episodes of Dynamite and Collision this week... John Cena hinting at a HEEL TURN right before our eyes?... the best Swerve Strickland matches... and where I would rank the 2025 Men's Royal Rumble match may surprise you!

WWE threw a HUGE curveball at us last night with Jey Uso winning the Royal Rumble and the reaction has been very polarizing. Solomonster explains why it all makes sense and why he thinks the hate is so over the top... where John Cena and CM Punk go from here heading into WrestleMania... Drew McIntyre reportedly STORMS OUT of the building in a rage and the reason why... the surprise return of Alexa Bliss... JD McDonagh's injuries from Raw and why he should have been taken out of the match... Janel Grant's amended lawsuit against Vince McMahon includes a mention of yet ANOTHER WWE executive... Triple H headlining the 2025 Hall of Fame... WWE sticks it to AEW again with a new show... and Dark Side of the Ring topics REVEALED for season six!

Solomonster has a LOT to discuss including Saturday Night's Main Event and the contract signing segment with Shawn Michaels, Jacob Fatu goes insane and Jey Uso loses AGAIN... plus, predictions for the Royal Rumble winners and possible surprises... Alexa Bliss and WWE at an impasse and why the Wyatt Sicks may end up as collateral damage... Tony Khan said to be FED UP with Britt Baker and her status with AEW, as well as her response to Konnan that she cheated on Adam Cole... ANOTHER AEW star said to be frustrated and vocal on how they're being used... a "Timeless" return for Toni Storm on Collision... and has CM Punk made a bigger impact in his WWE return or his run with AEW?

Solomonster reviews a mostly boring edition of WWE Smackdown leading into Saturday Night's Main Event with LOTS AND LOTS of mentions of actor Matthew McConaughey in the front row, and LOTS AND LOTS of ladies declaring for the Royal Rumble. The transfer window has also brought multiple Raw stars over to Smackdown. By June, this show will be back to two hours, but that alone will not solve the problems that it faces. Let's talk about it.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite from Knoxville, TN and it was a more enjoyable show outside of a surprisingly boring main event and a not-so-surprisingly terrible Death Riders angle. The Hurt Syndicate are the NEW tag team champions, Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay forge an alliance, Jeff Jarrett is one step closer to an AEW World title match and our first tease of an issue between MJF and Hangman Page.

This week, I've got a LOT of thoughts on WWE and TNA making their partnership OFFICIAL, how it benefits both companies, why the "AEW Effect" is a very real factor here and debunking the idea that this makes TNA the #2 promotion in the country (it doesn't). PLUS... thoughts on the Corey Graves drama with WWE and whether it's a work or a shoot... WESTLEVOTES STRIKES AGAIN and this time, Bad Bunny is the victim... thoughts on Penta's Raw debut and the reports that he has HEAT with other wrestlers over his segment going long... Smackdown thoughts from Friday with Jacob Fatu finally starting to break out and plans for Bayley against Roxanne Perez... Saturday Night's Main Event predictions... the latest on Malakai Black's AEW status... hilarity ensues with AEW's booking of Powerhouse Hobbs this week... the absolute DEBACLE that is AEW Grand Slam Australia and what happened this week... Tammy Sytch tries to get her prison sentence reduced... and Lance Storm's touching tribute to a Hollywood legend.

I'm in RARE FORM this week talking about Vince McMahon's "CASE CLOSED" message (not quite, Vincenzo) and whether his deal with the SEC paves the way for a return to WWE... then, from one pathetic case to another, we move on to HULK HOGAN who got booed off the face of the earth on Monday night and everyone is offering their thoughts on why it happened I'm going to tell you why it happened, and a lot of OTHER things about Hogan that you may not have known about, and how WWE is considering handling their Real American Beer sponsorship going forward... plus, Raw on Netflix premiere thoughts... the BIG names set for the Royal Rumble match... a surprising opponent being discussed for GUNTHER at WrestleMania... the latest on Malakai Black's status with AEW and how WWE and AEW both failed him... Darby Allin's status revealed and what it means for the AEW World Championship... how Jim Ross dodged a MAJOR bullet when it comes to Tammy Sytch... and Jeff Hardy claims he could have been as big of a star as John Cena is today. Do you agree?

Solomonster reviews the WWE Raw premiere on Netflix with the return of The Rock, but what he did (or didn't do) on the show left us with more questions than answers as we head into WrestleMania season. CM Punk battles Seth Rollins, John Cena declares for the Royal Rumble, Rhea Ripley challenges for the Women's World Championship and Roman Reigns tries to get his ula fala back waging Tribal Combat with Solo Sikoa. But the most INCREDIBLE part of the show didn't involve any of those names... but rather, Hulk Hogan and the reaction he got from the Los Angeles faithful.

I just binged BACK TO BACK Tokyo Dome shows... and I have a lot to say about them, but chief among my thoughts is this... Kenny Omega is f#$%ing BACK! I wish I could be as enthusiastic about the Wrestle Kingdom main event as I am about Wrestle Dynasty, but I'd be lying to you if I said I was. Plus... clearing up some confusion about the latest in the Vince McMahon/Janel Grant lawsuit... MAJOR news on the Royal Rumble location in 2026... The Rock's status for the Raw on Netflix premiere... the return of EVOLVE?... Jeff Jarrett wants to challenge for the AEW World Championship... a John Cena heel turn during his retirement tour... and what is the greatest COMEBACK in wrestling history?

An investigative piece this week by The Athletic doesn't paint a great picture of WWE's head of production, Lee Fitting, and his firing from ESPN last year. I've got all the details and why it's a TERRIBLE look for a company already embroiled in scandal this year. PLUS... thoughts on the Raw on Netflix kickoff event at WWE HQ... dueling reports about CM Punk's role at WrestleMania 41 and the HUGE match now being considered... rumors of a Tribal Chief Championship... ROH Final Battle and some mind-boggling booking... Ricochet showered with toilet paper at the Hammerstein Ballroom... Mercedes Mone reacts to a fan comment about her "downfall" on Instagram... and PREDICTIONS for the wrestling world in 2025, including John Cena's final year and one crazy opponent for him, Goldberg's final opponent, who takes the AEW World championship and your next WWE Hall of Fame class.

Jesse Ventura returning for Saturday Night's Main Event... why the WWE Draft in its current form needs to be ABOLISHED... why that New Day heel turn on Big E was SO GOOD and actually makes sense... major injuries coming out of War Games...

We've got fallout to discuss from last night's WWE Survivor Series, with very different thoughts on the two War Games matches (and both a defense and critique of Nia Jax), the latest on Bronson Reed getting injured, Paul Heyman's favor to CM Punk and an idea for how Solo Sikoa will fall as leader of the new Bloodline. PLUS... Dave Meltzer offers an amazing take on Jade Cargill's absence... the new Women's Intercontinental title and who likely takes it first... praise for the New Day segment on Raw and why Kofi Kingston was NOT a Hall of Famer before he linked up with the group... AEW embarrassment down under as they're forced to move their big Australia show... Ricky Starks speaks to Chris Van Vliet and has no idea why he's off AEW television, how much time is left on his deal, Paul Walter Hauser's ridiculous defense of Tony Khan, Starks pulled from all future GCW shows, the comments that upset Khan and so much more on this.

Solomonster reviews the Full Gear aftermath edition of AEW Dynamite for Thanksgiving Eve, with the kickoff to the Continental Classic and Kamille "quitting" before Mercedes Mone could fire her. Will that salvage her AEW run? Not likely, but it was a mercy killing that had to be done.

After the worst go home show I've ever seen for an AEW PPV, I got an earful from some folks and I've got something to get off my chest to start. Then it's on to the AEW Full Gear 2024 review, with a closing angle that a lot of people didn't understand but made perfect sense to me, all the things that did NOT work on the show and thoughts on THE COSTCO GUYS on the pre-show... why Kenny Omega's comments last week may be part of something bigger... AEW running the Hammerstein Ballroom and the GCW owner is not happy about it... what Logan Paul could be doing at Wrestlemania... a tremendous twist to The Bloodline story heading into War Games and where it may be leading... Jade Cargill injured and who will take her place... is it more of a DEPTH ISSUE or CREATIVE ISSUE with the WWE tag team divisions... Survivor Series 2024 PREDICTIONS... the most improved performers in five years of AEW... ranking Brock Lesnar's best singles matches at Survivor Series... th best and worst years of the original ECW... and the worst reign of terror, Triple H or Roman Reigns?

Lots to discuss here and lots of directions for this to go. Plus, an excellent segment with Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens, and Jade Cargill takes a spill to her demise, but whodunit?

Reviewing the final AEW Dynamite before Full Gear and it's not good. Full Gear should be, but this show certainly wasn't. In fact, I can't remember a go-home show as lifeless and boring as this one.

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul had an embarrassing fight on Netflix, but what does it mean for Raw in January when the show moves there? Scott D'Amore was also a surprise guest at the WWE PC and what that could mean... Becky Lynch possibly on her way back to WWE... Rikishi posts a cryptic comment on Instagram and pitches a new MATCH CONCEPT for The Bloodline... thoughts on Bronson Reed joining War Games, who the fifth man on Team Roman is likely to be and where the Paul Heyman cliffhanger from Smackdown may be headed... predicting the first ever Women's United States Champion... a TNA name departs and is likely headed for AEW... Kenny Omega explains why he's returning to New Japan first and not AEW, and in doing so, makes a comment so delusional I thought I was reading The Onion... FULL GEAR 2024 PREDICTIONS, including thoughts on the Death Riders angle and why AEW wins for Sad Tweet... why Randy Savage REALLY fell out with TNA in 2004 and then we talk about THE BEST... the best Survivor Series PPV, the best wrestling books you should read and the best Sound Off moments from 17 years!

Wind down your weekend with this late night Sound Off and news on Kenny Omega's likely return to the ring (and it's NOT for AEW)... Elimination Chamber going international for the fourth straight year... why the President of Endeavor had breakfast with Vince McMahon and the fate of the federal investigation into him may have just been sealed... Dave Meltzer's latest REALLY BAD WEEK involves Backlash at the Tokyo Dome (really), AEW losing to NXT but really winning, and a tacky writeup on Dutch Mantel... thoughts on the Bloodline reunion and WAR GAMES now official... WWE introducing a Women's United States Championship, whether it will "float" and an idea for how to decide the first champion... and a FULL REVIEW for AEW Dynamite, including why the Adam Cole/Malakai Black match made me sad more than anything, why Malakai was upset coming out of the match and how the stipulation for Cole and MJF's story heading into Full Gear has suddenly changed.

Solomonster reviews WWE NXT from the 2300 Arena (more well-known as the ECW Arena) in Philadelphia featuring appearances by ECW alumni including the Dudley Boyz, Rob Van Dam, Rhyno, Dawn Marie and others. If you saw it as an ECW tribute show, it was pretty lame, but if you saw it for what it was really meant to be, they did a fine job of using ECW talent to endorse the stars of NXT.

But just to show you he's not a total sour puss, the closing angle accomplished a few different goals and Shelton Benjamin had another good outing.

NXT possibly running the ECW Arena for a show... why Jey Uso just ended his Intercontinental title run with one promo on Smackdown... the good and bad of the debut of the Motor City Machine Guns... one the things AEW did a VERY poor job of on Dynamite coming out of WrestleDream... online chatter about Ospreay/Ricochet/Takeshita having the best triple threat match EVER at WrestleDream... and YOUR questions on the best way to kickstart a Cody Rhodes/Randy Orton feud... how to introduce Hikuleo into the Bloodline story... how to book Tiffany Stratton's MITB cash-in... WrestleMania 41 tickets for Las Vegas... Sheamus' legacy in WWE and best matches... and what are some of the BEST and WORST catchphrases in wrestling?

PLUS... how a tweet about Bob Costas led to Christian Cage trending on Twitter and the REAL reason Todd Grisham announced Christian's return the way he did... The Rock HITS BACK at reports of him not appearing at WrestleMania 41... the best place to do Gunther vs. Goldberg if it must happen...

Reviewing WWE Monday Night Raw's return to two hours, and while I will say nothing bad about the format change, it's clear that there will be an adjustment period for WWE as they navigate booking a two-hour show with three hours-worth of talent. This was the weakest Raw show in a long time, saved by the World Heavyweight Championship match between Gunther and Sami Zayn, and to a slightly lesser extent, Sheamus and Pete Dunne.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!I sat through all six hours of the Vince McMahon docuseries on Netflix and have a FULL review of the good, the bad and the (very) ugly, where it falls short, why Bruce Prichard is full of crap and news on Vince attempting to buy the documentary AWAY from Netflix so he could bury it. The only thing buried is McMahon's reputation and there's one person responsible for that. PLUS... WWE Bad Blood predictions for next weekend, thoughts on the Summerslam location for 2025, Tony Khan adding time to the Lucha Bros contracts to keep them from WWE, MJF gets a BIG movie role and Ric Flair is single again ladies... keep those liquor cabinets locked.

Thoughts on the return of Saturday Night's Main Event... Smackdown reportedly moving to THREE HOURS in January and the changes WWE is going to have to make to that roster for this to work... the Kevin Owens heel turn tease as a red herring for something bigger... Mick Foley and Rikishi's disappointing, but not unsurprising comments about Vince McMahon... another ridiculous WWE lawsuit that involves "Senator" Linda McMahon, PIE and a hush money check from Daniel Bryan and Sasha Banks (no, really)... the latest report on AEW's new media rights deal with Warner Brothers Discovery, the money figure being cited, what it means for the future of Rampage and more... Dave LaGreca's embarrassing interview with Tony Khan on Busted Open radio... Miro asks for his AEW release and why Tony Khan should give it to him... GRAND SLAM predictions for Arthur Ashe Stadium and a good rant on how we got to Bryan Danielson against Nigel McGuinness that is sure to upset the sickos... the reason AEW Collision doesn't interest me and why the audience has fallen off... the five BEST AND WORST cage matches of all time... Roman Reigns suggested as an opponent for GUNTHER at WrestleMania... and my favorites movies/TV shows with wrestlers-turned-actors. Be sure to drop a review for the show or leave a comment!

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for September 20th with an epic faceoff between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes on the field at Georgia Tech ahead of their tag team match at Bad Blood. Outside of that, we got a major tease for a Kevin Owens heel turn and not much else as Smackdown has gotten into something of a rut, and if this show is going to three hours, they're going to have to do something about it fast.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for September 18th, one that for much of it felt more like an episode of Rampage or Collision. They have two bigger shows coming up each of the next two weeks, including a Grand Slam show in NYC that is struggling to move tickets, hence the Bryan Danielson vs. Nigel McGuinness match that MAY OR MAY NOT happen, but the way that Tony Khan has bungled the build to the match is truly something that needs to be studied.

Reviewing AEW Dynamite for September 11th with MAJOR changes to the upcoming Grand Slam lineup at Arthur Ashe Stadium as the AEW World championship will no longer be defended. Instead, Darby Allin will put his title shot on the line against Jon Moxley while Bryan Danielson will meet Nigel McGuinness in their first showdown in 15 years. Looking forward to the match, but how we got there... well, that just has me scratching my head.

Solomonster has a LOT to say about AEW All Out 2024 with the good, the bad and the ugly from last night's show, including multiple instances of attempted murder and a MAJOR angle with the Blackpool Combat Club. Then he discusses the lawsuit filed against the company by Kevin Kelly and the Tate Twins reviving the independent contractor vs. employee argument and Tony Khan coming to Jim Ross' defense after comments from their attorney... thoughts on Odyssey Jones being abruptly fired by WWE... Paul Heyman's bold claim about the WWE women's roster... what's REALLY covered in the Vince McMahon docuseries on Netflix... the return of Saturday Night's Main Event to NBC... Cody Rhodes and WWE sued over the "American Nightmare" trademark... and thoughts on Hulk Hogan's appearance on Logan Paul's podcast, his ridiculous claim about his creative control and a comment about Chris Benoit that is among the dumbest things he's ever said (and think of the ground that covers).

Some great video packages, Swerve Strickland sends a message to Bryan Danielson and the Young Bucks finally defend their tag team titles for the first time (and what followed was hardly anything to write home about).

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for August 7th, two weeks out from their biggest show of the year but you would never know it. We had Bryan Danielson and MJF in action, and that's good, because if you take them away, it just felt like a glorified episode of Rampage.

Solomonster reviews the post-Summerslam edition of WWE Monday Night Raw, which turned out to be one of the very best episodes of any WWE show all year. A strong show from top to bottom with very little downtime, including the in-ring debut of The Wyatt Sicks, a surprise appearance by Randy Orton to challenge Gunther, Bronson Reed makes a STATEMENT by destroying Seth Rollins, Damian Priest and Rhea Ripley each try to get their pound of flesh from the "new" Judgment Day and more. A great show!

Summerslam was a NEWSWORTHY show with the return of Roman Reigns, TWO Judgment Day betrayals and FOUR championships changing hands. We'll talk about the changes coming for Raw and Smackdown going forward, including to the announce teams, why Logan Paul's US title run was terrible and why last night was the end of an era for Summerslam. PLUS... a MAJOR WWE star teases a possible appearance at WrestleMania 41... a PR disaster for The Rock and the U.S. Army... a depressing health update on a former WWE champion... the latest on Shane McMahon's meeting this week with Tony Khan, Shane comments on what they discussed, why AEW does not NEED Shane McMahon, but if Tony Khan brought him, here's one area where he might be able to bring value... the return of ALL ELITE ELEMENTARY with MJF and Britt Baker involved in a backstage incident, Baker being SUSPENDED, what allegedly let to things blowing up and why the punishment really doesn't have any teeth to it... the new "BIG FOUR" female stars in WWE and whether they will eclipse the success that the Four Horsewomen have enjoyed... pro wrestlers taking new weight loss drugs... and what I would like to see WWE release next from its vault on YouTube!

WrestleVotes backs up my news about Seth Rollins for Summerslam... what happens with Cody Rhodes when Roman Reigns comes back... WWE appears to have landed a veteran tag team currently on the free agent market... why MJF against Will Ospreay may be the most POLARIZING and DIVISIVE match in AEW history, what made it so great, why it was a gamble that paid off for Tony Khan (and the latest on a possible rights deal with WBD), the Cagematch controversy around the match and a MESSAGE for all the tribalists that make wrestling fans look like absolute blithering idiots... Ric Flair pitches the idea he ran by AEW for Sting's retirement that they rejected... Cary Silkin is NOT HAPPY about what Tony Khan is doing with Ring of Honor and dropping some truth, on Cary and everyone else, about the state of ROH right now... an update on the future of Dark Side of the Ring... and YOUR QUESTIONS about Sting wrestling John Cena on his retirement tour next year, what if The Undertaker wrestled John Cena at WrestleMania 23 instead of Batista and my Mount Rushmore of shoot interviewees!

I've got thoughts on AJ Styles and IYO SKY working Japan this weekend and news on two NXT stars being sent to Pro Wrestling NOAH... expanding on my plans for John Cena's retirement tour, who I would have him in the ring with and how to book a HUGE main event for Summerslam 2025... Stephanie Vaquer goes from AEW Forbidden Door to WWE's Mexico tour in record time after signing with the promotion, why CMLL/NJPW and a lot of AEW fans are not happy about how it all went down and why the people attacking her for "not doing business" the right way need to keep their pieholes shut... women's IC and US titles rumored for the main roster and why it actually MAKES SENSE... WWE adds a veteran voice from ESPN to their broadcast team, who he'll be working with and why the odds are against him... NOT SO FAST if you think LA Knight is beating Logan Paul at Summerslam... Mariah May betrays Toni Storm in one of the greatest segments in Dynamite history... why Tony Khan is giving away PPV matches on Dynamite these next two weeks... why running brand-specific PLEs again in WWE would NOT work... the sad story of Takeshi Morishima... the state of WWE in 1995 and 2009 and which was worse... could a Four Horsemen with Ric Flair in WWE have worked in the 1980s... and my FIVE favorite Black & Gold era NXT Takeover matches!

I'm all fired up after the best start to finish week of the year for WWE, including not one but TWO huge debuts, Drew McIntyre destroying CM Punk and Seth Rollins making a surprise return. I've got lots to say about the arrival of Uncle Howdy's new crew, the criticism about it not belonging on a pro wrestling show and the challenge going forward to make this thing work. Plus, two possible directions for Chad Gable coming out of one very bad night... JACOB FATU joins The Bloodline and turns the entire story upside down after one appearance... NXT gets a start date on the CW Network and what their early plans are... one longtime WWE announcer leaving the company... the AEW Dynamite RATINGS COLLAPSE from Wednesday, what it can be attributed to, why the number WILL rebound but there are longer-term issues to address... the incredible Jeff Jarrett segment from Collision and why he STILL shouldn't win the Owen Hart tournament... rumors of SHANE MCMAHON possibly joining AEW and I wanna know who's asking for this... why Kota Ibushi seemingly hasn't learned his lesson yet... the best Randy Orton RKOs and HBK superkicks of all time... my TOP TEN movies of all time... and a few words about the death of former Turner executive Jamie Kellner, who is often vilified for killing WCW, and baseball legend Willie Mays.
Jamie Kellner
Willie Mays

It appears that at least ONE of the WWE names with contracts expiring soon is preparing to bid the company farewell and that's Ricochet. I've got news on where things stand and honest thoughts on his reported decision to leave, as well as news on a popular AEW star who also has a contract coming up for expiration this summer. Also, defending Tony Khan from the latest round of crap he's getting for his tweets... NXT Battleground predictions for tonight's show... CLASH AT THE CASTLE PREDICTIONS for next weekend and whether this is Drew McIntyre's moment... Randy Orton says the quiet part OUT LOUD about Vince McMahon being gone from WWE... the latest updates on AEW Forbidden Door and the Owen Hart Foundation tournaments, and a defense for Mariah May losing to Saraya on Dynamite... President Tanahashi lays out his TEN POINT PLAN to help turn business around in New Japan Pro Wrestling... and YOUR QUESTIONS on the best Women's Royal Rumble match ever, is this the lowest point in Chris Jericho's career, my favorite RECEIPT ever given in a match and what is more important in wrestling, CHARACTERS or STORIES?

Vince McMahon's CIVIL problems may be about to turn CRIMINAL as the U.S. government makes an interesting request... multiple WWE contracts come due as Becky Lynch becomes a free agent, the likelihood of her signing with AEW, Will Ospreay really wants Ricochet and Chad Gable's future in question... AJ Styles runs back a classic angle and why WWE can now get TWO matches with Cody Rhodes out of it instead of just one... NXT surprises this week with appearances by Ethan Page and the TNA Knockouts champion Jordynne Grace, how the deal came together and what it means for NXT and TNA working together in the future... one report claims Tony Khan was DISAPPOINTED by the initial TV rights offer made by Warner Brothers Discovery (which AEW sources are denying) and why this is all much ado about nothing ... Adam Copeland does something very stupid and breaks his leg in the process... Swerve Strickland gets a SURPRISING opponent for Forbidden Door in Will Ospreay, why I think it's happening so soon, why I think it's perfectly fine and what it likely means for Wembley Stadium... AEW contracts come due as talent leave the company, and one departure is most interesting in light of recent comments by Cody Rhodes... plus YOUR QUESTIONS on Drew McIntyre forming a new heel faction with an NXT group, WWE hosting more international shows from Caribbean locations, Giulia's future on the WWE main roster and Undertaker pitches the idea of WWE Roasts?

This weekend marks FIVE YEARS of All Elite Wrestling and it's been a fun ride, but not without some bumps in the road. I'm talking about the good things to come out of AEW and why Tony Khan should be proud, but also the very real issues that plague the company, plus the latest on the NBA TV rights situation with Warner Brothers Discovery and what it could mean for the future of AEW. Then it's final predictions for DOUBLE OR NOTHING 2024 with news on MJF, Kenny Omega's health status, Swerve Strickland's possible opponent for Forbidden Door and Darby Allin explains why people may be right when they question him being added to Anarchy in the Arena. Then it's WWE KING AND QUEEN OF THE RING thoughts, Triple H's reaction to the controversy around the GUNTHER/Randy Orton finish, how it should be addressed and Becky Lynch's status with the company. ALSO... thoughts on Summerslam moving to TWO NIGHTS in 2026 and why it's happening, Giulia INJURED and what it means for her looming NXT debut, and the night that Big Van Vader broke a man's back and cried about it.

Tyson Fury is undefeated no more and seems to have gotten his brains scrambled worse than I even thought, plus Hall & Oates are truly finished and the Mets had another meltdown, so let's cheer things up by talking WRESTLING. Vince McMahon gave his side of the story this week on those explicit text messages with Janel Grant while WWE filed a motion on their own and the one thing this all hinges on... Dana White teases WWE and UFC running shows on the same weekend, and what that means for the future of Saturday WWE PLEs... Saudi Arabia not only wants a Royal Rumble or WrestleMania, now they have a DATE for it?... predictions for WWE KING AND QUEEN OF THE RING... Ivar clears up confusion about his health status and Meltzer is in the mud again... one of the most DELUSIONAL things I've ever heard from Brian Gewirtz concerning the infamous first Rock and Cody Rhodes segment... AEW DOUBLE OR NOTHING PREDICTIONS, including a new pairing for Mercedes Mone and the absurdity of AEW allowing Darby Allin to work an Anarchy in the Arena match... AEW Dynamite ratings continue to slide at the worst possible time for Tony Khan, and how TNT losing the NBA is likely to affect the company... Ricky Starks has NO IDEA why he's been off AEW television, but I have a feeling I know why... and YOUR QUESTIONS, including one listener calling Sammy Guevara "useless", a HOT TAKE on the pending Uncle Howdy faction, why WWE has blacklisted Enzo Amore and could he come back, the greatest secondary title run in wrestling history, Triple H's role during the invasion had he not gotten hurt and a replica belt discussion!

Jerry Lawler loses his WWE broadcasting deal and why it makes sense... one of the CRAZIEST LAWSUITS you will ever hear about, why WWE and AEW are both named as defendants and what the person is looking to get from both companies... Kenny Omega announces surgery plans for his diverticulitis, and also announces another ANARCHY IN THE ARENA match for Double or Nothing and the one thing AEW should avoid doing if they insist on doing this match every year... Ric Flair's BAD DAY at the pizza parlor, what the hell happened, the embarrassing video that leaked and the hilarious conclusion to the story... my DARK SIDE OF THE RING review for the season finale on Black Saturday and the rise of Vince McMahon, including a lot of background on Jim Barnett, the Kentucky sex scandal he was involved in and why he was such an influential figure in the business, the downfall of Georgia Championship Wrestling, how McMahon got the WTBS timeslot, why it only lasted a year and arguing that he did NOT kill the territories, he only sped up the process, plus possible topics for a season six... why WWE has never held a PLE in Hawaii, possible KOTR winners for 2003-2005 and when exactly did this RENAISSANCE ERA of WWE begin?

Solomonster has MUCH TO DISCUSS with CM Punk getting trapped inside WWE Headquarters... the WrestleMania 41 location is FINALLY announced... WWE Backlash fallout with a NEW member of The Bloodline and not the one everyone was thinking it would be, where it could be leading and why Roman Reigns may soon have to decide whose side he's on... reviewing the NEW rosters for Raw and Smackdown and declaring a winner, the problems facing Cody Rhodes and the tag team division on Mondays, why this year's draft was a BORE and a solution to that problem for next year... first round matches announced for the KING AND QUEEN OF THE RING and holy cow with these men's matches... 12 talents GONE from WWE after another round of releases, including Drew Gulak (who Triple H says wasn't released so much as his contract wasn't renewed and why this caused some controversy) and another talent that will go down as THE BIGGEST FLOP IN WWE HISTORY... John Laurinaitis flips BACK on the side of Vince McMahon because he's a spineless little worm... HUGE hit piece on The Rock claims a lack of professionalism not only on his movie sets, but also at WrestleMania 40... Kenny Omega returns on Dynamite and is left for dead by The Elite... the latest injury problems to plague the AEW roster... a DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on The Sandman, including the infamous crucifixtion angle that led to Kurt Angle threatening to sue Paul Heyman and audio from the ECW ZOMBIE talking about how he got the gig with Sandman on that first ECW on Syfy show... and who's on YOUR Mount Rushmore of past and present wrestling crushes?

It's a jam-packed show this week and I'm BREAKING SOME NEWS about former AEW World champion MJF and his current injury status (it's not good). Then I've got LOTS to say about Swerve Strickland winning the AEW World championship, my issue with his Open Challenge last night on Collision and why he's actually in a tough spot right now, not unlike Eddie Guerrero in 2004... the MAJOR angle with Jack Perry and The Elite attacking Tony Khan, why it's NOT a bad idea but why Tony calling WWE the Harvey Weinstein of pro wrestling WAS a bad idea (and no, he's not totally off base with that comment)... a Jacksonville news reporter publishes an embarrassing story about AEW, though not in the way that he may have hoped... a winner for SAD TWEET that has to be heard to be believed... the official end of the PG Era for WWE?... evaluating a BORING first night of the WWE Draft and the names eligible for Night Two... what makes the Cameron Grimes release so maddening... WWE BACKLASH FRANCE PREDICTIONS for next weekend's show... noncompete agreements BANNED in the U.S. and how it may impact pro wrestling... my DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on "Sensational" Sherri Martel and why she is the greatest female manager of all time... where the current AEW roster ranks among the best rosters ever... one thing that could give WWE pause before bringing WrestleMania to Minnesota... and Bret Hart's dislike for GUNTHER?

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite from Daily's Place with Jack Perry and The Elite destroying Tony Khan and leaving him laying in the start of a major new story. Will it work? Who knows, but at least they have a major story to build the show around going forward and it's something, frankly, they had to try. Plus, Jon Moxley defends the IWGP championship, Swerve Strickland's first appearance as AEW champion and a Casino Gauntlet match to determine the next challenger for Roderick Strong's International title.

It's AEW DYNASTY DAY and I've got predictions for tonight's show, plus thoughts on AEW being valued at TWO BILLION DOLLARS and Tony Khan's response to CM Punk's claim that the company did not pay for his triceps surgery after Brawl Out... FIVE WWE TALENTS RELEASED, including a former WWE champion and why the cuts were said to have been made... NBC News reports on Vince McMahon's life after WWE, which includes KITTENS AND PUPPIES (I'm surprised their sources didn't talk about him helping the blind and working at a soup kitchen, too) and speculation about him possibly starting up a new promotion... Rhea Ripley VACATES the Women's World Championship and who should win the title on Raw tomorrow night... injury updates on Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre... Sheamus responds to getting FAT-SHAMED on social media... some of my suggested WWE DRAFT MOVES FOR RAW, SMACKDOWN AND NXT... Rossy Ogawa announces his new promotion, the two WWE stars he's attempting to bring in for a show and Kenny Omega levies some HEAVY accusations as it relates to Ogawa and Stardom... my DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on "Gentleman" Chris Adams, another eyeball story, the plane ride from hell long before WWE had its own and the shooting that killed him.

WrestleMania Night 1 is in the books and I've got my top line thoughts on the show and The Rock pinning Cody Rhodes, then he previews Night 2 and offers up his final predictions... plus thoughts on GIULIA arriving in NXT and the creation of a Women's North American Championship... thoughts on the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony and a fantastic speech by Paul Heyman... thoughts on the emotional Bray Wyatt documentary on Peacock and one reason, in hindsight, why I'm happy WWE released him in 2021... then I'm finally digging into CM Punk's explosive interview with Ariel Helwani and Punk BREAKING HIS SILENCE on what led to his AEW departure, his altercation at Wembley with Jack Perry, why he thinks Tony Khan is a clown and AEW isn't a real business, what Colt Cabana said to him and more... THERE IS A LOT TO UNPACK HERE AND NOBODY IS SAFE FROM CRITICISM, including Punk himself and especially Tony Khan... we also know how AEW plans to respond to Punk's comments and it's actually quite embarrassing... also, Tony Khan cuts TEN PEOPLE from the roster, who they are, what he's saying about it and lots more.

WWE is coming off one of the best Raws in YEARS with a very Attitude-esque vibe to it, but in the best of ways with The Rock leaving Cody Rhodes a bloody mess, plus CM Punk and Drew McIntyre roasting each other on the microphone. I've got thoughts on John Cena and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin being visible at the end of the show Monday and what it means... why Rock going heel was the best thing that could've happened... backstage notes on the creative behind the Punk segment... CONTRACT updates on Drew McIntyre and Becky Lynch, plus Becky's appearance on Ariel Helwani's show discussing Ronda Rousey's recent comments... the reason why The Undertaker hates cucumbers REVEALED... thoughts on the STATE OF AEW storylines and why it's not translating into TV ratings... Tony Khan and Eric Bischoff takes swipes at each other like children and what Tony's comments could mean for AEW's next media rights deal... the latest DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, his many (and I do mean many) gimmicks, the parasailing accident that destroyed his face and nearly killed him, the time he got an entire subway station closed out of fear of a terrorist attack, why he and Hulk Hogan had a falling out and more. Plus, YOUR QUESTIONS about Roman Reigns not showing up for work, Britt Baker joining The Elite, Vince McMahon going into the Hall of Fame, one idea for the Intercontinental and US titles, and the MOUNT RUSHMORE of Wrestlemanias!

LOTS to cover this week with a pair of BIG names revealed as the corporate officers cited in the Janel Grant lawsuit against WWE... Triple H allowing Shayna Baszler and possibly other talents to work Josh Barnett's Bloodsport show and why it's happening... TWO MORE names confirmed for this year's WWE Hall of Fame class and another one that's likely... thoughts on the Rock concert in Memphis, the damage done to Cody Rhodes if he doesn't respond in a big way this week and one report suggests WWE talent are FRUSTRATED that Rock isn't playing by the same rules they are... why Sami Zayn should NOT be upset over the fan reaction to his win over Chad Gable... The Undertaker ribs STING over his retirement... Darby Allin NOT climbing Mount Everest after all... Mercedes Mone makes her AEW debut and one of the reasons why Tony Khan has been throwing his money around to sign some big names... and my DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on Buff Bagwell, or as I'm calling it... BULLETS AND BALLSACKS: The Story of Marcus Alexander Bagwell, with too many insane stories to describe in one sentence, but it does include his broken neck on Thunder, his Raw match with Booker T that officially killed WCW once and for all, what the plans were, why he was fired and much more.

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!From no names to nearly ALL the names announced, I've got thoughts on this year's WWE Hall of Fame inductees... why WWE needs to be smarter about these Rock and Roman Reigns segments on FOX... who should challenge GUNTHER for the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania... Sting's retirement and the ONE THING Tony Khan refused to give him, and I'll glad he didn't... details on Sammy Guevara's AEW suspension, what we know and more importantly what we DON'T know and why this does not need to be complicated when it comes to their concussion protocol... Kevin Kelly reportedly FIRED from AEW, what led to the decision and why the timing of his tweets may have ultimately led to his demise... the EYE-POPPING dollar amount Tony Khan is allegedly paying to Kazuchika Okada and why it's hilarious people are making such a big deal about this... Mercedes Mone speaks ahead of her expected AEW debut and is already talking about an eventual return to WWE... and my DARK SIDE OF THE RING review covers the life and career of Earthquake John Tenta, including a humorous look at the Shockmaster incident with his former tag team partner, and an anything but funny look at the final days of his life, including audio from one of his last interviews... then we hear from a CASUAL FEMALE FAN about what she likes and dislikes about WWE and AEW, a possible John Cena heel turn in 2024 and where do I rank STING on the list of all-time greats?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Dallas with Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins confronting The Rock and Roman Reigns on what was an otherwise missable episode. Despite what Rollins was wearing, he had a strong night on the microphone up against Rock, who added a stipulation that all but gives away the finish for the Night Two main event at WrestleMania. It just isn't something that needed to be added.

It was a rough week with the deaths of Ole Anderson, Virgil and Paul "Butcher" Vachon and Solomonster has something to say for each of them. Then he runs down the card for tonight's AEW Revolution event and gives his predictions for each match, including Sting's final bow after a 40 year career and why you rarely hear his name mentioned on people's Mount Rushmores, but why he will go down as one of the all-time greats. He also ranks the TEN BEST MATCHES of Sting's career... AND THEN... he runs through The Rock's SCATHING 21-minute promo on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins, the key takeaways from it and why it was the best Rock promo in years. That leads into a discussion of the newsworthy segment on Smackdown with Rock and Roman challenging Cody and Seth to a tag team match on Night One of WrestleMania, why the segment accomplished several things and the different scenarios for both main events. PLUS... Tama Tonga on his way to WWE... how much WWE paid MLW to settle their antitrust lawsuit... Shawn Spears makes a surprise return to NXT... the Maxxine Dupri "controversy" as she gets booed by the fans (gasp!)... and YOUR QUESTIONS on CM Punk at WrestleMania 40, one problem with the Damage CTRL story and why Wrestlemanias 20-22 were not held in stadiums like the ones directly before it.

Solomonster has thoughts on the fallout from yesterday's WWE Elimination Chamber show, including PIRATES causing problems for the delivery of the Chamber itself, Cody Rhodes challenging The Rock to a match and one interesting theory involving The Rock AND Seth Rollins both acting as double agents? PLUS... running through some of the winners in the annual Wrestling Observer Awards as voted on by the readers and why Tony Khan is likely very unhappy with the results, what is it that fans look for in their weekly wrestling shows and why it's time to rename the category of Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic... thoughts on John Cena's comments about Vince McMahon on The Howard Stern Show and one thing people like Cena and Randy Orton fail to realize about Vince... two former WWE stars end up with New Japan gold around their waist and why a MAJOR AEW name may soon be wearing the IWGP crown... Mercedes Mone gets her own personal writer?... Hulk Hogan says he turned down the chance to be THE NEXT JOHN WAYNE... and some GREAT mailbag questions answered explaining the bad blood between AAA and CMLL, what triggered the Undertaker's surge of great matches late in his career, why Jesse Ventura left WCW in 1994, the fascination with Minoru Suzuki and the ideal Hall of Fame class for 2024.

Solomonster has a lot to say about The Rock and Roman Reigns on Smackdown, including the possible easter eggs that were left during the segment, why his opinion hasn't changed on where this is all headed and what he thought of heel Rock. He also has something to say about the less than stellar week that Dave Meltzer had, not only when it comes to WWE, but AEW and TNA news as well, and that wasn't even the thing that bothered him the most. ALSO... more news on Ashley Massaro and WWE... Elimination Chamber predictions, including who's winning each of the Chamber matches, and the status of Rock and Roman for Australia... why you may soon need to fork over MORE money for that Peacock subscription... why Tony Khan promotes WWE better than WWE does, and thoughts on the AEW Revolution card as it stands... the letter sent by the TNA roster to Anthem CEO Len Asper about the firing of Scott D'Amore, and who's really running TNA creative now... plus, YOUR QUESTIONS about the ending of WrestleMania 40, what happened to David Sammartino, Shawn Michaels' five greatest rivals and ranking SEVEN legends not exactly known for their great in-ring ability.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for February 5th with plenty of WE WANT CODY chants and ROCKY SUCKS chants coming out of that debacle at the end of Smackdown last week, and WWE wasn't trying to hide from it. Are they considering alternate plans for Wrestlemania 40 in light of the response, or is there something else going on here?

Vince McMahon is in BIG trouble now that we've learned he's under federal investigation for sexual assault and sex trafficking, but his problems are about to go from bad to worse after the lawyer for John Laurinaitis threw him under the Lex Express this week. Solomonster talks about the new details we've learned, why those NDAs may not be worth the paper they're printed on and the laughably delusional claim that Laurinaitis is now making. CM Punk is also OUT of Wrestlemania and it's wreaking havoc on the card, but not as much as what we saw on Smackdown... one of the BIGGEST CREATIVE BLUNDERS in WWE history with The Rock, Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. He's HEATED about this even moreso now than he was on Friday night and has a LOT to say about the situation, why it happened, why Triple H should be PARANOID right now, the one thing that makes him think there COULD BE a swerve involved and the ways they can still fix the mistake they made. PLUS... the AEW Rankings are out and are exactly what he feared they would be... Mick Foley has something TERRIBLE in mind for his 60th birthday... the big free agent that WWE or AEW should pick up, and why they may be resistant to do so... and YOUR QUESTIONS about all things Rock/Roman/Cody, why WWE has a music problem and more. This is not one to be missed!

Solomonster attended the Undertaker 1 Deadman show in Clearwater, FL the night after the Royal Rumble and shares his thoughts on the show, whether it's worth it to attend future shows, the former WWE star he brought up on stage with him, some stories he shared and questions he answered on topics that included heat with Hulk Hogan, thoughts on Bray Wyatt and why we will never see him back in the ring for another match.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for February 2nd with one of the most frustratingly awful creative decisions this company has ever made with The Rock politicking his way into the Wrestlemania main event over Cody Rhodes for a match with Roman Reigns... Royal Rumble, be damned. You'll hear a lot of things about this being a dream match, Rock being a huge star, Cody's story can wait, Hulk Hogan's phoney fucking record and such... don't let that distract you from the fact that not only did they make Cody look like an absolute geek, but they completely buried Seth Rollins and the World Heavyweight Title six feet under. Listen and learn why.

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!We're barely three weeks into the new year and already have the story of the year with the news of Kazuchika Okada LEAVING New Japan Pro Wrestling. I've got LOTS to say about the news, including the pros and cons of Okada signing with WWE and AEW, where he's likely to land and what it means for the future of NJPW. And less than a week before the Royal Rumble, Seth Rollins may have just thrown Wrestlemania plans into disarray with his injured knee, and I've got all the potential scenarios that could play out from it, including the route I would take if the World Heavyweight Championship needs to be vacated. PLUS... John Cena tells PEOPLE Magazine that his time in WWE is coming to an end... R-Truth details how his quad tear nearly ended his career... Samoa Joe and HOOK do some numbers on Dynamite and the important thing for HOOK now coming out of it... why Revolution is shaping up to be one of the biggest AEW shows of all time... Tony Khan announces he's bringing back the RANKINGS system and my thoughts may surprise you... Dark Side of the Ring episodes revealed for season 5... the NWA finally coming to The CW, but not in the way Billy Corgan may have hoped... MY FIRST TNA IMPACT REVIEW IN YEARS and the one thing holding back the company from growing its audience... and YOUR QUESTIONS on The Rock in the Royal Rumble, where Fred Blassie ranks as a manager, how the state athletic commissions regulate pro wrestling, and the Girls Gone Wild PPV that WWE would rather we all forgot (with a great Kevin Dunn story out of it!).

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for January 17th with HOOK challenging Samoa Joe for the AEW World Championship, Darby Allin makes an interesting comment about Sting's retirement at Revolution, "Timeless" Toni Storm continues to be fantastic and the LEAST important titles on the show are the ones that actually change hands. It was also the one year anniversary of Jay Briscoe's death, and while that would be emotional on its own, there was a segment with his brother, Mark, on this show that was emotional for a very different reason.

We had WRESTLING GALORE on Saturday with the TNA Hard to Kill PPV, New Japan's Battle in the Valley and AEW hosting three hours of TV. Solomonster discusses Nick Nemeth being revealed as the big TNA surprise signing, Jack Perry resurfacing in NJPW and ripping up his AEW contract, Trinity losing her Knockouts championship and Chris Jericho being involved in the best wrestling streetfight IN YEARS. Then we get down to brass tacks with Triple H booking JINDER MAHAL in a World Championship match against Seth Rollins and the chaos that ensued on social media involving Tony Khan, who did more to promote Jinder Mahal in ONE WEEK than WWE has in the last seven years. Then he discusses the latest on this death triangle with Roman Reigns, The Rock and Cody Rhodes, including a report that Roman will NOT be at the Elimination Chamber event, Cody saying he's not flinching when it comes to being in the WM40 main event, talk of a possible TRIPLE THREAT MATCH at Wrestlemania and why that would be a terrible idea... Kevin Dunn's replacement has been named and he's already involved in a major scandal being BANNED from Emmy award consideration... why Kevin Patrick's job is in jeopardy on Smackdown and who would be likely to replace him... thoughts on Sting choosing THE YOUNG BUCKS as his final opponents at Revolution and one idea AEW might be considering for his REAL final opponent... Dark Side of the Ring gets renewed for another season and thoughts on possible episode topics... and YOUR QUESTIONS on WWE protecting Roman Reigns at all costs, one storyline pitch for SHEAMUS finishing his story at Wrestlemania, matches you thought would be great but left you disappointed, Undertaker names his Mount Rushmore of BIG MEN, why The Nasty Boys had beef with The Outsiders in WCW, and the influence of Lucha Underground on modern pro wrestling. Leave a comment and a five star rating to help the show!

Solomonster reviews the Homecoming episode of AEW Dynamite from Daily's Place in Jacksonville with Sting and Darby Allin wrestling Konosuke Takeshita and Powerhouse Hobbs, and the Young Bucks returning at the end of the show to tease what looks to be the match for Sting's sendoff at Revolution. Plus, Samoa Joe makes his first appearance as the new AEW World champion and already has three challengers breathing down his neck, and AEW isn't fooling anyone by playing Chris Jericho's music over his entire segment to drown out any negative crowd chants. They can get away with that in a short segment, but that won't work during his next match.

WWE reportedly looking to work with Japanese promotions, including a female promotion... more on Kevin Dunn's departure from WWE and his replacement... thoughts on The Rock's return to WWE on Raw, teasing a match with Roman Reigns, responding to all the people who say it MUST happen at Wrestlemania and why they're wrong, the different scenarios that could play out between now and then and why they're all inferior to what the original plan likely was and why they should STAY THE COURSE with Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns... why the idea of Roman Reigns losing his title in the Fatal Four-Way at the Royal Rumble without being pinned is TERRIBLE... Charlotte Flair undergoes surgery and the former WWE Women's champion making her return who could help fill the spot left open by her... the latest on Mercedes Mone and why Tony Khan has the opportunity to have the best women's division anywhere on TV in 2024... thoughts on the Patrick Clark apology video and the Velveteen Dream's stunning fall from grace... Nick Hausman cleans up some of his comments about Chris Jericho but insists he is NOT backtracking... MJF deciding whether or not to have surgery on his arm and how long he could miss if he goes under the knife... Road Dogg makes another ASININE comment, this time in reference to whether or not he was a better sports entertainer than MJF, and it's not what you think. A hell of an episode as far as subjects to sit our teeth into, so let's get to it!

Even still, the director was easier on Fritz than he could've been. He is by no means a hero in this story.

I've got thoughts on TWO surprising stories out of Japan with Hiroshi Tanahashi being named the new President of New Japan Pro Wrestling and WWE possibly sending an NXT talent to work an All Japan Pro Wrestling show. What is going on here? PLUS... my EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with AEW World champion MJF with his thoughts on Tony Khan's comments about AEW constantly being under attack, what John Cena said to him on the red carpet at the Iron Claw premiere and how he's treating his torn labrum as he prepares for his World's End battle with Samoa Joe... more potential bad news for Tony Khan and AEW as it relates to merger talks between Warner Brothers Discovery and Paramount and the effect it could have on the wrestling landscape... lots of contract news on Cody Rhodes, Charlotte Flair, Bayley and the Mysterios, and thoughts on Mercedes Mone asking for even more money than what Charlotte is said to be getting... lots of non-competes for released WWE talent have now expired and guess who the busiest man in wrestling looks to be?... where the Continental Classic finals appear to be headed as AEW revisits the Swerve/Keith Lee feud a YEAR after the story reached its peak... RANKING THE 20 BEST PRO WRESTLING MATCHES OF 2023 and, man, this is a lot harder than you would think... then, it's YOUR questions on a possible future Jon Moxley return to WWE, Cody Rhodes and CM Punk BOTH winning the Royal Rumble, Lacey Evans "not caring" about wrestling, AJ Styles' less than stellar history at Wrestlemania and KANE getting involved in the CM Punk/Seth Rollins story? Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

Solomonster reviews the "Holiday Bash" episode of AEW Dynamite for December 20th with three more Gold League matches in the Continental Classic and someone finally knocks Jon Moxley off his perch, leading to a three-way tie atop the standings heading into the semi-finals next week. MJF and Samoa Joe have also agreed to defend the ROH tag team titles next week against The Devil's henchmen, but the more interesting story is only first playing out between MJF and Swerve Strickland. With any luck, that will be our Revolution main event.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for December 18th with Gunther and Miz having a banger of a match for the Intercontinental championship, and TWO tag team title matches, including new champions crowned on the ladies side. Plus, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre have a conversation that leads to physicality ahead of their DAY ONE match, and no CM Punk on the show now that he has already declared for the Royal Rumble and, frankly, there wasn't anything for him to really do anyway. Oh, and Kofi Claus showed up to give presents to all the people who have been nice this year. Where's my gift?

With reports this week of a meeting between WWE officials and Warner Brothers Discovery executives about the future of Monday Night Raw, this should be most concerning to Tony Khan... and frankly, to all wrestling fans. I'll explain why, as well how CM Punk may have helped open a door that was previously thought to be closed, what WWE is looking to be paid for Raw, how the NBA media rights could have a direct impact on the situation, why Raw on TNT or TBS would not mean DEATH for AEW, but it could mean a very different AEW and Tony Khan's comments about it from the Final Battle media scrum. PLUS... WWE and MLW reach a settlement in their antitrust lawsuit... why CM Punk and Seth Rollins need each other to achieve their ultimate objective, and thoughts on the comparisons between Seth's promo on Raw and Hangman Page's promo on Punk last year leading into Double or Nothing... the latest details on Liv Morgan's arrest this week... Cody Rhodes says MJF will end up in WWE one day... Charlotte Flair out NINE MONTHS with a devastating injury at the worst possible time, what it could mean for Bianca Belair at Wrestlemania and how Tiffany Stratton could be involved... two BIG names return on Smackdown and where it all may be leading at the Royal Rumble... Kenny Omega out INDEFINITELY and in the hospital with diverticulitis, how long he's been sick and the ridiculous reason people claimed this is KARMA for him... fake outrage over a tweet by a FOX employee and Mark Briscoe's rational, adult response to the whole thing... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank, Ken Shamrock making a cameo in the Royal Rumble, the most protected heel in the wrestling business, the celebrity inductee for the 2024 Hall of Fame and how I would've booked Bret Hart's WCW debut and first year in the company.

Let's break it all down, including the comparisons of the Rollins promo to the Hangman Page promo on Punk in AEW and the biggest difference between the two.

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!CM Punk went out on Smackdown and cut the promo most people were waiting for, making his mission statement clear as it relates to the Royal Rumble. Seth Rollins also spoke to Sports Illustrated and threw more gasoline on the fire in his "feud" with Punk, and all roads lead to Wrestlemania. Solomonster maps it all out and explains why WWE is very fortunate right now to be so strong on their babyface side, in a way they haven't been in many years. He also addresses the latest report on Okada becoming a free agent and considering a jump to WWE or AEW, as well as his shocking return to TNA Wrestling in January... another potential big defection coming soon, this time from the Knockouts division in Impact... it's the END OF AN ERA for WWE Home Video and thoughts on the decline of the physical media category... how AEW has completely dropped the ball with Konosuke Takeshita and why they cannot do the same with Swerve Strickland... reacting to a Peter Rosenberg clip talking about Tony Khan becoming what Vince McMahon once was, why he's wrong and what the REAL advantage was that AEW had over WWE for a lot of talent and fans that they no longer do... a full review for NXT DEADLINE with an appearance by CM Punk, a new North American champion crowned, the Iron Survivor Challenge winners and the story of what killed Baron Corbin's push in 2017 when he hit rockbottom with his failed MITB cash-in... then it's a FAT ASS MAILBAG with tons of questions on Godzilla Minus One, how to get Cody Rhodes to Roman Reigns without winning the Royal Rumble, why Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk DOES need the championship to headline Night One, the return of Sasha Banks to WWE, taking Tammy Sytch out of the Hall of Fame, Gunther dropping the IC title in a LADDER MATCH, why Tamina Snuka was never booked to be Women's champion and a potential WWE Hall of Fame class for 2024.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for December 8th with CM Punk giving us the promo we were expecting on the Raw after Survivor Series, namedropping various members of the roster while stating his mission to win the Royal Rumble and main event Wrestlemania, and even taking a not-so-subtle dig at the Young Bucks. Outside of the Punk promo, it was a very missable episode with two first round matches in the US Title tournament and a possible injury to Charlotte Flair.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite with more Continental Classic matches and the first singles match between Adam Copeland and Christian Cage in 13 years. If you listened to me two weeks ago, you knew that Nick Wayne's mother was going to get involved and go heel, and while it did make sense for her to do what she did, I still can't help but roll my eyes that Nick Wayne's mother played a role in the finish of the first Edge and Christian match in an AEW ring.

With CM Punk back in WWE, now what? We got mixed messages this week with an apparent showdown coming with Seth Rollins, but also rumors of life to a possible Punk vs. Steve Austin match for WrestleMania 40 and a future match against Roman Reigns. Solomonster gives his thoughts on Stone Cold possibly coming back out of retirement for one more match, the one thing missing from Austin's match with Kevin Owens that would be a MUST for any Punk match, and how WWE could get TWO clashes out of it with Punk and Reigns... plus, thoughts on the alleged "behavior clause" in Punk's contract, his first promo on Monday night and why he's become the one thing he hated when he dropped his famous pipebomb promo... thoughts on Randy Orton signing with Smackdown and mapping out the early Wrestlemania card as things currently stand... the latest on Jade Cargill's training at the WWE Performance Center... Bryan Danielson revealed to be on the disciplinary committee that recommended CM Punk be terminated from AEW and no, Danielson did not FIRE Punk from the company... good news for AEW with its early ticket sales for Wembley Stadium next year... MJF dealing with a torn labrum heading into World's End and Britt Baker drops a salty tweet after Dynamite... Ric Flair causes controversy at the AEW Rampage taping for being, well, Ric Flair... QT Marshall quits AEW and there are plenty of explanations to go around as to why this has happened... Matt Hardy expresses frustration with the way the Hardys are being used by Tony Khan... and Tammy Sytch finally learns her punishment on her DUI manslaughter and other charges, how much time she will spend in prison and her comments in open court.

It certainly wasn't the controversial promo people were expecting, given the way he left 10 years earlier and given the comments Seth Rollins made about him. But might that have been by design?

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!After 10 years away, and after being terminated by AEW only two months ago, CM Punk has found his way back to WWE. It was a SHOCKING return at the end of Survivor Series and I'm not afraid to admit, I didn't think it was going to happen. But I've got all the details on why it happened, when it all came together, Triple H's comments about Punk coming back, the video of an angry Seth Rollins reacting to Punk's return, Drew McIntyre also being said to be upset last night and so much more. This has thrown the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania into CHAOS now, which can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on whether or not you are a Punk fan. I also have a lot to say about his AEW departure and why Tony Khan was still right to get rid of him when he did, and why this is Punk's last chance to write the final chapter of his story the way he wants it to be written. But there's another aspect to this story that is being glossed over that I think may be the MOST significant thing to come out of the last 24 hours and I'll tell you what that is. ALSO... Triple H politely speaks the truth out loud about Jade Cargill and why we haven't seen her back on WWE television yet... MJF is said to have already re-signed with AEW and NOT spoken with WWE, and why this is the least surprising news of the week... AEW Continental Classic updates, what I think the finals should be and the mistake I think Tony Khan made on Wednesday night... NWA Powerrr episodes QUIETLY added to The CW App, the reaction from those inside the promotion to the news and the MAJOR NWA name that could be on their way out of the company at the end of this year... responding to the people mocking the idea of Bray Wyatt being a deserving induction into the WWE Hall of Fame... can AEW Rampage be saved?... and was there ANYTHING good to come out of the later years of WCW?

Episode 835 has the fallout from AEW Full Gear, including the most violent match I think I've ever seen, and Will Ospreay as the major new signing Tony Khan was talking about. I've been seeing a lot of comments about Ospreay not being a "mainstream star", as if this is somehow the criteria now for judging pro wrestling signings, until you realize there's actually a very simple reason for it, and it's pathetic (as are the people who peddle it). Plus, news on Ronda Rousey's status with AEW/ROH after this week... details on the Continental Classic, what's at stake with AEW doing its own version of a Triple Crown and why it's not as prestigious as Tony Khan makes it out to be... WWE said to have interest in signing New Japan Pro Wrestling's biggest star and one of the best in the world... Cody Rhodes responds to the idea of The Rock taking his spot at Wrestlemania 40... WWE SURVIVOR SERIES WAR GAMES PREDICTIONS... even more news on reported roster and production cuts coming for the NWA and Billy Corgan responds... Nick Hogan arrested on suspicion of DUI... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Raw and Smackdown going head to head on TV, possible names for next year's WWE Hall of Fame class in Philadelphia, and would the NWO have been the success it was with someone other than Hulk Hogan revealed as the third man?

Santos Escobar attacks Rey Mysterio as tension boils over in the ranks of the LWO. Kevin Owens sits in for Corey Graves on commentary and ends up "suspended" by the end of the night. It was a newsworthy episode, despite the WWE champion and US champion being absent from the show, something likely to happen a lot between now and the Royal Rumble.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for November 6th, a very strong episode that put the pieces together for War Games at Survivor Series, which appears to be Raw-only with no Bloodline involvement. While not ideal, he explains how it still makes for a strong match, and with additional members that may yet be added, who would make sense for those roles and more. Plus, the World Heavyweight Championship is defended on TV for the first time in five months, #1 contenders set for the IC and Women's titles at Survivor Series and more.

Solomonster reviews WWE Crown Jewel 2023 with LA Knight challenging Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE championship and falling to the usual Bloodline nonsense. Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre steal the show, but otherwise, there wasn't much for them to steal to win that honor. Kairi Sane is back though and she's aligned with IYO SKY, which makes things a little more interesting when it comes to Damage CTRL. And Logan Paul is the new United States champion, but will that now make TWO absentee champions on Friday nights?

Solomonster is back with the fallout from this weekend's WWE Crown Jewel event, including Roman Reigns winning again and why he needs to be in this year's War Games match, Logan Paul winning the United States championship and the agreement I hope he has with Triple H, John Cena doing the honors for Solo Sikoa and why GUNTHER was not available for the show even if they wanted him there... plus, the CEO of FOX gives a blunt response to why Smackdown is leaving the network next year and why pro wrestling (yes, even WWE) will always be the red-headed stepchild when it comes to advertisers... thoughts on Ric Flair signing a multi-year deal with AEW, how his energy drink plays into all this and how the deal basically pays for itself, and Flair already talking about taking bumps in the ring... another BIG announcement from Tony Khan proves to be one too many... why all of the doomsday talk about AEW online is overplayed, but there are very real problems that Tony Khan needs to address if he wants to position AEW as a true alternative to WWE, and that's just not happening right now... the unbelievable story of how Billy Corgan and the NWA may have already gotten themselves kicked off television before their new TV deal even begins... NXT HALLOWEEN HAVOC Night 2 thoughts and how Shawn Michaels finally settled on the right mix for NXT... and YOUR EMAILS on why LA Knight should be World champion right now, why Triple H is a terrible booker and what would a Jay White-led Bullet Club Gold look like if he was in WWE right now?

Solomonster reviews the go home edition of WWE Smackdown before Crown Jewel, a taped show from last week that wasn't bad, but was completely missable. We got good stuff in the main event between Bianca Belair and Bayley, and John Cena burning Solo Sikoa on the microphone in what may well be his final Smackdown appearance, but outside of that, it was largely filler. But never any filler here, so enjoy!

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for November 1st with another HUGE Tony Khan announcement... for tickets to a show that is still nearly a year away. But it's huge! Plus, MJF searches for partners to tag with against Bullet Club Gold, Paul Wight returning to the ring even though it looks like he can barely move and Adam Copeland agrees to partner with Sting and Darby Allin at Full Gear. This will not go down as one of the better episodes of Dynamite this year.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for October 30th, the final Raw before Crown Jewel, with a hard push towards the Cody Rhodes/Damian Priest match and Seth Rollins against Drew McIntyre with two excellent promos from both men. The Creed Brothers from NXT also answered the Alpha Academy's open challenge and had a great debut. But WWE is also trying again with The Miz as a babyface and it never works in the long term. Finally, this is a Be The Booker segment to close out the show that you will not believe.

After holding it hostage for two years, WWE finally released the documentary for Vladimir the Superfan and Solomonster had a chance to watch it. He discusses who Vladimir is and finally reveals just HOW he and other fans you would always see in the front row at every show actually got those tickets, plus he gives his thoughts on the film. He also discusses WWE bringing PLEs to Germany and France next year... why Will Ospreay is about to make bank and the possibility of him landing in WWE... CM Punk gets asked about his status for Survivor Series and comments on the possibility of a union in wrestling, and why he is absolutely correct in his assessment... Billy Corgan gives an honest answer about bringing CM Punk to the NWA... running down the card for WWE CROWN JEWEL next weekend and predicting the finish of the Roman Reigns vs. LA Knight main event, plus Roman's rumored status for Survivor Series and why we never need to see another championship reign of 1,000+ days again... MJF and Kenny Omega put on a classic on AEW Collision, and why Omega's comments AFTER the show did as much to put MJF over as their match did... Tony Khan gives Sting the gift of RIC FLAIR and what Sting's retirement match should be at Revolution next year... Jon Moxley speaks candidly about the system wrestling companies should start using to diagnose concussions during matches and why he's right, even though people will disregard his comments because of who's saying it... Ronda Rousey returns to the ring, but not for WWE... a former MLW World champion asks for his release and could be a HUGE pickup for WWE or AEW... Marty Jannetty talks about partying with Hulk Hogan and THE GUMBALL MACHINE... why NXT Halloween Havoc Night One was the best show of the week... and YOUR QUESTIONS on how to get to Brock Lesnar vs. GUNTHER at Wrestlemania, how to get Cody Rhodes to Roman Reigns without winning the Royal Rumble and a HOT TAKE on why Rhea Ripley... IS BORING?

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for October 27th, a decent enough episode but hardly anything exciting one week out from Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. But Roman Reigns showed up for work, which is rare these days, to sign the contract for his championship defense against LA Knight. John Cena is also facing what he calls a "must win" match with Solo Sikoa at Crown Jewel and boy are they playing up the sympathy factor with him of late. But it seems to be working because this latest run of his appears to be coming an end shortly. Also included at the top are thoughts on the Santana vs. Ortiz match that opened AEW Rampage.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for October 23rd and the streak of really good shows has come to a screeching halt at two. The fans in Dallas didn't have a lot to get excited about, but were also probably keeping track of their two baseball teams during the show. Triple H has a tall order in front of him as he hit the reset button in many ways on several stars that have either yet to make a connection to the audience or have not been utilized on TV in a long time. Meanwhile, Drew McIntyre continues to be the most interesting character on the show and Cody Rhodes finds himself dealing with another storyline injury heading into Crown Jewel.

Solomonster has the latest on what's changing, why the move is happening and why it won't do a single thing to help grow their brand without some important actions being taken. He also discusses a Survivor Series sellout in Chicago... why a possible BRAND WARFARE edition of War Games would be a terrible idea... LA Knight challenging Roman Reigns for the Undisputed Championship at Crown Jewel... the return of Bianca Belair and why a heel turn against Charlotte Flair could be a repeat of what we saw in 2018. Then, he discusses the announcement that STING will be retiring at next year's AEW Revolution event, the parallels between Sting and the Ultimate Warrior as champion, the times he ALMOST signed with WWE and the disappointment that resulted when he finally did, Tony Khan's booking of Sting in AEW and who his final opponent(s) might be, plus he ranks the TEN BEST MATCHES of Sting's career... Kenny Omega challenging MJF for the AEW World Championship on COLLISION next week?... AEW announces OKADA for a match on Dynamite this week and what it could mean for the Tokyo Dome...

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!This past Tuesday saw AEW and NXT in a head-to-head battle that brought out the absolute worst in wrestling fans, but it also seemed to send Tony Khan into a tailspin after the numbers came out. I'll break down the back and forth between the two sides leading up to the shows, Tony's reaction to the ratings loss and the trolling he received online, why it makes AEW look bad, why it's so personal to him and a plea to him going forward, plus a history lesson for those who don't think Vince McMahon would ever be caught dead reacting in a similar way. AND SPEAKING OF VINCE MCMAHON... it's looking more and more like he may have gotten played by Ari Emanuel, who publically cited McMahon this week as one of the reasons for the recent TKO stock drop, while Endeavor gives Triple H full creative control over the WWE product, the changes we're already seeing and why this is a GREAT thing... the latest on CM Punk and a possible return to WWE, which doesn't look very likely... thoughts on Nick Aldis being named the new Smackdown general manager, the return of dueling GMs for Raw and Smackdown and Kevin Owens being traded back to the blue brand... the return of Roman Reigns, how WWE all but confirmed the main event for WrestleMania 40 this week and LA Knight challenging for the championship in Saudi Arabia?... the latest on Randy Orton's return and how it could factor into Survivor Series... Karrion Kross makes a surprising revelation about Bray Wyatt and Wrestlemania... Billy Corgan announces the return of the territory system and TWO television deals for the NWA. Finally, WWE recently aired a FOX special ranking the Top 25 Moments in Smackdown history and it was a doozie of a list. I'll go through the entire thing and then rank my own TOP 15 LIST covering the greatest moments in Smackdown history. It's been a while since I've done a good countdown, so I think you'll enjoy this!

Solomonster decided to be bold and watch WWE NXT and AEW Dynamite at the same time and review both shows, and by god that's what he did. It was the Tuesday Night War, for one night only, and he never wants to go through it again, but he had fun watching both shows. If you wanted to see the big names and surprise cameos, then NXT was the show for you. If you wanted the best in-ring action of the night, the Dynamite gave you that. Grab a drink or a snack (or both) and enjoy this juiced up review, all roided to the gills!

Plus, the latest on how PETTY things are getting between WWE and AEW heading into the Tuesday Night War between NXT and Dynamite.

Tony Khan comments on the offer he made to Jade Cargill to stay with AEW and why he was surprised she didn't accept it... EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW about Adam Copeland's debut in AEW, how and when the deal came together, the reasons he made the jump, the issues he ran into at the end with WWE, the REAL reason why he was kicked out of The Judgment Day and why all the tribalism around his jump absolutely SUCKS... the embarrassing TBS issues that continue to plague AEW... NEW tag team champions crowned on Collision, what it does and does NOT mean for FTR's status with the company... the TUESDAY NIGHT WAR shaping up between AEW and NXT this Tuesday, WWE stacking the deck with major starpower and why this is a good thing for the fans... the Florida state attorney general requesting the MAXIMUM sentence for Tammy Sytch... and the latest HULK HOGAN TALE involving his son, Shane McMahon, a possible match at this year's Wrestlemania and what one higher-up in WWE has to say about the story.

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before WrestleDream this Sunday and it's the worst possible news for Adam Cole as he confirms the injury to his ankle... broken in three places with torn ligaments and surgery on the horizon. With the injury, AEW is pivoting to a program with MJF and "Switchblade" Jay White as they had their first face-to-face in the ring, plus a cliffhanger ending with Jay White being attacked by a gang of ninjas and a man in the MJF devil mask, Hangman Page and Swerve Strickland sign the contract for WrestleDream and Julia Hart continues to impress.

First came the WWE employee cuts, then came the talent cuts... more than TWO DOZEN in total, including names like Matt Riddle, Dolph Ziggler and Mustafa Ali. Solomonster explains how Riddle pissed away the best money run of his career and where he may end up next, why people should not feel bad about the all the missed opportunities with Ziggler and why Emma wins for Sad Tweet after some unfortunate timing... plus, news on Elimination Chamber coming to Australia... Smackdown LEAVING FOX and moving back to USA Network, how much they're reportedly getting, possible nights the show could air other than Friday and could it move to three hours?... Monday Night Raw and NXT said to be leaving USA, possible homes for both shows and could Raw be moving to a new night?... Vince McMahon addresses WWE employees and makes a statement about the sale of the company that is so preposterous, it had people rolling their eyes, why it's all bullshit and it was never about anything but retaining power and sticking it to the people who forced him out in the first place, the legal peril he still faces that could end with him leaving the company after all, and Endeavor ADMITS he is a potential liability to their company... LA Knight misses a HUGE segment on Smackdown after testing positive for COVID... pitching an idea for Jade Cargill to debut and take the NXT Women's championship from Becky Lynch... CM Punk said to NOT be taking Tony Khan and AEW court over his termination... AEW GRAND SLAM thoughts and the latest on injuries to Adam Cole and Jon Moxley... why Rick Knox is the worst referee of all time... the latest on Darby Allin climbing Mount Everest... the current lineup for WRESTLEDREAM next Sunday and an odd tease from Tony Khan... NXT NO MERCY PREDICTIONS for Saturday's show including a new NXT champion crowned... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Jim Cornette's fantasy booking for Rock vs. Roman Reigns and CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes at Wrestlemania, will Tony Khan release AEW stars like WWE did this week, a bizarre concept pitched for future Money in the Bank matches, and who will go down as the bigger WHAT IF in WWE history between Matt Riddle and Velveteen Dream?

It was the END OF AN ERA this week with WWE and UFC coming together under TKO Group Holdings and Endeavor now taking majority ownership of WWE. Unfortunately, this included massive WWE office cuts and I'll explain how many people lost their jobs and which divisions got hit the hardest, plus Nick Khan comments on why PLEs may be moving to Sundays, Royal Rumble coming to Tropicana Field, a major WWE event said to be coming to Australia and the possibility of CM Punk returning to WWE... The Rock returns to WWE on Smackdown, but not before stopping by Pat McAfee's show and revealing that a match with Roman Reigns was LOCKED for Wrestlemania 39 and I've got details on how far in advance it was planned, why it didn't happen and why I believe it will NEVER happen despite Rock's repeated teases, plus how it would impact Cody Rhodes and his attempt to "finish the story"... Nia Jax is back in WWE and why it's the return that absolutely no one asked for... Jade Cargill leaving AEW for WWE, the latest on where she will be this week and the best place for her after she debuts... an embarrassing moment on AEW Collision involving Keith Lee... THE GREAT DEBATE about the AEW All In attendance at Wembley Stadium takes a turn this week... AEW GRAND SLAM 2023 PREDICTIONS, including a pitch for why Samoa Joe should beat MJF for the AEW World Championship, and the very real attendance struggles the company is experiencing right now... thoughts on Becky Lynch winning the NXT Women's Championship for the first time... and a NEW Hulk Hogan lie discovered this week?

Drew McIntyre and Xavier Woods had an excellent match, and Chad Gable made it clear that he wants one more shot at Gunther's Intercontinental title, but overall, it was a lackluster show up against the opening night of Monday Night Football.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Impact Wrestling hits 1000 episodes this week and that has Solomonster feeling nostalgic about the good and the bad we've gotten from Impact over the past 20-plus years. He also talks about the death of Adnan Al-Kaissie, or General Adnan from his time in WWE with Sgt. Slaughter, and shares some interesting tales from his life as a childhood friend of Saddam Hussein and the time Saddam threatened to shoot Andre in the head during a match in Iraq... a historic week coming up with the close of the Endeavor deal for WWE, why their employees are worried and what it means for the fans who watch the product... LA Knight signs a new long-term deal with WWE, how long it's believed to be for and what's being said about their plans for him... GUNTHER makes history as the longest-reigning Intercontinental champion of all time and two ideas on how and when to have Chad Gable beat him for that title... WRESTLEMANIA 40 may still be seven months away, but some of the key matches for the show seem clear at this point, and he runs down what those and other matches may be and where other people fit into those plans... then on the AEW front, he's got MORE FALLOUT from the CM Punk termination including reaction from some of the top stars in WWE, the rumored idea Punk had for a return earlier this year and why it was never going to happen, Ace Steel released from his AEW contract and the legal letter sent by Punk to The Elite over a BTE skit... Bryan Danielson claims this will be his last year in wrestling and challenges Zack Sabre Jr. to a match at WrestleDream... the epidemic of OPEN CHALLENGES in AEW... the beef between Santana and Ortiz spills over onto social media, how much of it is setting up an angle between the two?... and thoughts on the not-so-new Kurt Angle documentary on Peacock, including his first broken neck heading into the Olympics, his drug addiction, his "Perc Angle" days in TNA and why Angle doesn't consider himself GOAT material for his run in WWE.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown with Jimmy Uso trying to work his way back into the good graces of Roman Reigns, even after all that has already happened. Even if you believe it makes sense because he wants to be the next Tribal Chief, this story is dragging and not in a good way. On the other hand, LA Knight continues to light up these crowds and is getting even more screen time on the show, which is a good thing. And we have a little tease of possible faction warfare involving The Bloodline, The Judgment Day and Bobby Lashley's new crew.

Orange Cassidy's International title reign finally comes to an end, Bryan Danielson returns and makes Ricky Starks, and the rest of us, experience a disturbing sense of brutality, Takeshita picks up the biggest win of his career and Samoa Joe starts some shit with MJF. The first PPV of the post CM Punk era showed us that AEW is going to be just fine.

One year after AEW's most embarrassing night at Brawl Out, Tony Khan has FIRED CM Punk from All Elite Wrestling in a bombshell announcement. Solomonster has all the details that we know about, including Tony's claim that his life was put in danger by Punk's actions last weekend, what exactly is alleged to have happened backstage at Wembley Stadium, what sparked the incident with Jack Perry in the first place, how this situation could get even messier, why it was the right move to make and why a CM Punk return to WWE may not be as obvious as some may think. ALSO... we've got a full preview and PREDICTIONS for AEW All Out 2023, including the planned main event and the return of Bryan Danielson, earlier than expected from his broken arm... FALLOUT from WWE Payback 2023 with two excellent matches and Cody Rhodes bringing Jey Uso to the Monday Night Raw roster, plus where it may be leading... more tragic details on the death of Bray Wyatt... the former tag team on their way back to WWE and the brand they're expected to be on... and Road Dogg blames THE FANS for cheering for Becky Lynch at Summerslam 2018 when they should have been booing her.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for August 30th coming off the heels of their biggest show ever at Wembley Stadium. It was a show missing a lot of names due to illness and travel issues, and it suffered for it, but they also had four days to promote All Out this Sunday in Chicago, which didn't help matters. He also speaks out on the CM Punk and Jack Perry situation, their reported suspensions and why it's time for Tony Khan to make the tough decision that he has so far resisted making when it comes to Punk. It's just not worth it anymore.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for August 28th, a solid effort heading into Payback this Saturday with several long matches, including a Falls Count Anywhere main event with Becky Lynch and Zoey Stark. Gunther laid down the challenge for Raw next week to defend his Intercontinental title against Chad Gable, and there's plenty to say about the decision to hold the match off the PPV for TV instead. And there were even more emotional tributes to Bray Wyatt on the show, plus heartbreaking news details about his death last week.

Solomonster reviews the biggest show in AEW history, All In London from Wembley Stadium before a crowd of more than 80,000 fans. What they witnessed was a largely enjoyable show with an excellent main event, but no matches that stood out as MOTY or all-time classics. And nearly a year after the Brawl Out drama, CM Punk once again finds himself in the middle of a backstage fight. At what point does Tony Khan say enough is enough?

Sometimes, life is just unfair. That was certainly the case this week with the shocking news that Bray Wyatt had passed away, only 24 hours after WWE Hall of Famer Terry Funk passed away. Solomonster has a lot to say about both men, their careers, their most memorable matches and moments and the impact they made on the industry. He also shares his thoughts on the death of former Price is Right host Bob Barker, who died today and once made a very memorable appearance on Monday Night Raw. But it's not all doom and gloom... he runs down the full card for AEW All In at Wembley Stadium with PREDICTIONS for the biggest show in AEW history, including who walks out as champion between MJF and Adam Cole, the likely match for CM Punk at All Out next weekend, Chris Jericho attacking Will Ospreay at today's RevPro show and how to book Eddie Kingston now through Grand Slam in NYC... the latest chapter in THE MANY LIES OF HULK HOGAN as he makes the rounds to promote his new CBD line... Edge REFUTES a Pro Wrestling Torch report about WWE rejecting his contract request and how likely it is that he ends up going to AEW... The Judgment Day problem plaguing Monday Night Raw... Devon Nicholson SUED by the referee he mutilated two years ago at an independent show... and NXT HEATWAVE thoughts on the amazing match between Ilya Dragunov and Trick Williams, the Global Heritage Invitational with NXT running it's own G1 Climax-style round robin tournament and the names already announced for it!

Solomonster reviews
AEW presents All In London with more than 80,000 fans expected to pack Wembley Stadium this Sunday, but first, they had one final episode of Dynamite to get through to really sell the show as their biggest of all time. Solomonster recaps the final build for MJF vs. Adam Cole, an excellent contract signing with Chris Jericho and Will Ospreay and a couple of talent changes to matches on the PPV, including the return of Santana and Ortiz.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for August 21st with yet ANOTHER main event featuring Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn against The Judgment Day. I sometimes feel like I'm watching a replay of the same show every week. At least the crowd in Quebec City was livlier than they were in Winnipeg last week, plus we had a very good Intercontinental title match between GUNTHER and Chad Gable with a finish that keeps the issue between them going into Payback. We also found out what Shinsuke Nakamura whispered to Seth Rollins last week in what was the best promo of Nakamura's career.

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!WWE and AEW both set impressive business records this week that should be applauded, but it wasn't all good news for Tony Khan. One half of his tag team champions was arrested on an aggravated assault charge stemming from an incident last month that those in AEW may not have even been aware before the news broke. I've got details on the incident where Cash Wheeler is alleged to have waved a gun at someone, his court appearance, what it means for FTR's match with The Young Bucks at Wembley Stadium and why this is a no-win situation for Tony Khan. But the drama continues... with new reports of CM Punk BANNING people from AEW Collision, including the company's head of Talent Relations, a previously unreported backstage incident with Ryan Nemeth at Dynamite and more on Punk's comments last week about Hangman Page. This is a mess of Tony Khan's making that only he and he alone can fix, but will he?

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for August 16th with Jeff Hardy and Jeff Jarrett in a Texas Chainsaw Masssacre Deathmatch, a match we would find out later was for a good cause. Sadly, that good cause did not include the viewing experience, and it will go down as the worst match in Dynamite history. Sure, there may have been some awful matches before, but none that dragged on for as long. But on the bright side, MJF and Adam Cole did the best promotion yet for All In at Wembley Stadium, while the rest of the card was fleshed out with very mixed results.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for August 14th with a crowd in Winnipeg that wasn't buying what they were selling. Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus had a bad match with a worse finish to keep their feud going even longer, while Shinsuke Nakamura didn't have much to offer beyond the obvious when it came to explaining why he attacked Seth Rollins last week, and The Judgment Day got its killer instinct back by the end of the night.

BETTERHELP - Get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month and give online therapy a try at http://www.betterhelp.com/solomonster to start being your best self. Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Welp, here we go again. After an excellent main event on AEW Collision last night, CM Punk couldn't help but take shots at Hangman Adam Page, which ended up overshadowing the show itself. Were his comments all part of a plan to get Punk and Page back in the ring at All Out next month? I would certainly hope so, but if not, Tony Khan is getting exactly what he paid for. And as AEW continues to break attendance records for it's Wembley Stadium show in two weeks, I've got a lot of thoughts about the card for the show so far, and the impact of running back-to-back PPVs like they're doing. Plus... when the Endeavor deal for WWE is now expected to be completed, Triple H being left off the new Board of Directors and why this "story" is really a whole lot of nothing... the latest on Bray Wyatt's recovery from his "life-threatening" illness, Randy Orton's return to the ring and Sonya Deville's ACL surgery, including my thoughts on how to handle the situation with the Women's tag team titles... Jimmy Uso explains himself on Smackdown, Jey Uso "leaves" WWE, thoughts on them possibly stretching this story out until WrestleMania 40 and the one thing I hope to see WWE do out of this with Roman Reigns... the end of Austin Theory as United States champion and what to do with him now... thoughts on the end of the G1 Climax, Sanada's injury and why Eddie Kingston has been the best story in wrestling this past month... and a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING season finale review on the cautionary tale of Marty Jannetty, including why The Rockers were fired after only two weeks in WWE, the incident with Chuck Austin being paralyzed in the ring, the vicious hotel room fight between Jannetty and Shawn Michaels, the Barber Shop Window incident, why their WrestleMania VIII match never happened, his short-lived WWE returns in 2005 and 2006 and what led to the end of both of them, and his Facebook tale about having murdered a man when Jannetty was only 13 years old... and YOUR QUESTIONS on how to get the Intercontinental title off Gunther at the Royal Rumble, is LA Knight this generation's DDP, what would have become of Brian Pillman had he returned to WCW, what to do if LA Knight continues to gain popularity and Cody Rhodes starts to falter, and what's the greatest unplanned moment in wrestling history?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for August 11th with Jimmy Uso offering an explanation for why he betrayed his brother at Summerslam, and Jey Uso, after laying his brother and the rest of The Bloodline out, saying he QUITS WWE. Plus, Rey Mysterio wins the United States championship from Austin Theory and Edge makes a surprise appearance to issue a challenge for Toronto next week to someone close to him that he's never battled before. And Hulk Hogan turned 70 years old, so he shares a few famous tall tales that Hogan has told over the years.

Solomonster reviews the post-Summerslam edition of WWE Monday Night Raw for August 7th, a show that had a different vibe to it, a better one, with a new announce team and new stories taking shape. We had Shinsuke Nakamura turning heel and laying out Seth Rollins, JD McDonaugh being worked into the ongoing Judgment Day drama with Finn Balor and Damian Priest, LA Knight verbally jousting with The Miz and Chad Gable earning a future Intercontinental title match with GUNTHER. Plus, breaking news on Sonya Deville's ACL injury and a suggestion on what to do with the Women's tag team titles.

Jimmy Uso returns to betray his brother during Tribal Combat, IYO Sky cashes in her Money in the Bank to win the Women's championship, Cody Rhodes finishes the story with Brock Lesnar and Shayna Baszler triumphs over Ronda Rousey in an MMA Rules match that completely shit the bed.

It's the biggest Sound Off in YEARS with the fallout from last night's Summerslam, including a disappointing main event and The Bloodline story possibly jumping the shark with Jimmy Uso betraying his brother Jey, IYO Sky cashing in her Money in the Bank and more... Vince McMahon served with a federal grand jury subpoena and search warrant for his home and what it could mean... Paul Heyman calls himself the GOAT, his comments on Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and ranking the top three managers of all time... news on the latest WWE announce team shakeup and Kairi Sane's return to the company... lots of WWE talent frustration from Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus on down to Sheamus and Kevin Owens... Big E gives an update on his future inside the ring... Tony Khan signs The Elite to new contracts and how close they really came to leaving for WWE... breaking down the drama between LuFisto and the members of the AEW women's roster, the troubling accusations and the unified response that came on Friday... BIG new matches made official for Wembley Stadium and thoughts on the Ricky Steamboat angle on AEW Collision... thoughts on the Cody Rhodes documentary on Peacock, including Cody's comments on his AEW departure, Triple H calling them a "secondary promotion" and Tony Khan's response... and a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on WCW Bash at the Beach 2000 including Eric Bischoff and Vince Russo each telling their version of what happened that night, Hulk Hogan exercising his creative control clause, the decision to put the WCW title on Booker T and what the original plan was for a tournament and a Hogan return at Halloween Havoc, the promo that upset Hogan and the lawsuits that followed. What a mess. But then again, those words best describe the dying days of WCW.

Adam Cole and MJF fail to win the AEW tag team titles and where things go from here, including an interesting free agent sighting backstage... thoughts on the drama surrounding Britt Baker, Taya Valkyrie and the AEW women's division this week, why women's wrestling isn't a priority for Tony Khan, talk of talent with "too much power" and trash-talking that goes on, and who's responsibility it is to put an end to it... Will Ospreay's rumored opponent for Wembley Stadium and it's NOT Kenny Omega... thoughts on Gable Steveson's first live promo on NXT and GREAT AMERICAN BASH PREDICTIONS for tonight's show... and a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on the life and career of Bam Bam Bigelow, including his brief stint as a bounty hunter, the famous story of him saving a bunch of kids from a burning building, how Paul Heyman was able to promote his very first match, heat with Andre the Giant and why his first run with WWE abruptly ended, his match with Lawrence Taylor at Wrestlemania XI and why it is NOT the worst Wrestlemania main event of all time, his heat with The Kliq and a wild road story involving Hall & Nash that nearly got them all killed, his forgotten MMA fight in Japan, his ECW Living Dangerously match with Taz and their famous ring break spot, his motorcycle accident and the circumstances around his death.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for July 27th, which was mostly a swing and a miss after last week's Blood & Guts show. A couple of good matches and MJF promising an AEW World championship match to Adam Cole, but the best part of the entire show were probably the two seconds MJF took to call Roderick Strong a "default CAW". Also, still waiting on some match announcements for All In, and all eyes seem to be on Collision this Saturday with FTR defending the AEW tag team titles against Cole and MJF.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for July 24th with an overdose of The Judgment Day, once again all over the show, news on legitimate injuries for Kevin Owens and Liv Morgan and several Summerslam matches made official. Still no stipulation for Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar though. I'm thinking Brock may hate Cody's neck tattoo and maybe that's why he attacked him all those months ago. Hey, it's better than giving no reason at all.

LA Knight fever has been sweeping across WWE for months now as the chants grow louder each week. Despite this, he doesn't appear to have a match on this year's Summerslam card. I'll addresses the latest rumor of a planned post-Summerslam push and several signs why Knight is actually in a VERY good position right now, but also why that could change quickly if WWE fails to capitalize on things. He also addresses a PWTorch report about Vince McMahon and Triple H being fans of Knight's work, with a warning about the one thing that could end up derailing his planned push, and he doesn't shy away from the past controversies around Knight that led to his first departure from NXT and his exit from Impact Wrestling. This is a segment that everyone should hear. ALSO... Dominik Mysterio wins the NXT North American title and why it was the right move... Seth Rollins dealing with a lower back injury... a Bray Wyatt return rumored for Summerslam and details on the creative for the planned Wyatt 6 faction earlier this year... Nick Aldis said to have interest from WWE, but not as a wrestler... AEW BLOOD & GUTS thoughts and some interesting story points coming out of it I didn't pick up on after it happened... Kota Ibushi debuts in AEW and why he no longer looks like the Ibushi of old... what should Tony Khan do with MJF and Adam Cole... Teddy Hart arrested AGAIN for a predictable reason... a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on Abdullah the Butcher: Legacy of Blood, including the controversy involving Devon "Hannibal" Nicholson allegedly being infected with hepatitis C from wrestling Abdullah, which he claims cost him a WWE contract, the lawsuits that followed and Abby's claim that he doesn't know how to read or write, why neither of them come across as sympathetic characters, the infamous referee incident in Texas with Nicholson and why there should be no place in wrestling for people like that... plus, YOUR QUESTIONS about Tony Khan's recent comments on The Dan Le Batard Show regarding Saudi Arabia and they could affect his TV negotiations with Warner Brothers Discovery, why CM Punk and John Cena outclassed The Rock on the microphone during their feuds, and my Mount Rushmore for each of the "Big Four" WWE PPVs.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!It's been a hellacious weekend of wrestling with AEW Collision, Impact's Slammiversary PPV, the start of the G1 Climax and TripleMania with Kenny Omega against Vikingo, but we also lost Mantaur. Solomonster discusses the death of Mike Halac and his time as Mantaur, then he gets into the news of the week with the backstage "argument" at Raw Monday night...

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for July 10th, otherwise known as, three hours of The Judgment Day. Cody Rhodes also delivers a message to Brock Lesnar, who wasn't there, and Ricochet addresses Logan Paul, who may soon be under investigation by the FDA. I hope they don't remove his PRIME energy drink from store shelves as I may soon need them to stay awake for these shows.

WWE is bringing Survivor Series to Chicago this year, but conspicuous by its absence is any reference to WAR GAMES. Solomonster discusses whether the match should be revived again and other ideas for this year's show, including the possible return of brand warfare... the Ronda Rousey/Shayna Baszler segment from Raw Monday night... Natalya ranks her Raw match with Rhea Ripley as one of the best of her career, and thoughts on what the top three matches of her career would actually be... Roman Reigns and Jey Uso set for a Summerslam showdown and thoughts on the Tribal Court segment from MSG, and LA Knight being left off the show... thoughts on Kevin Nash calling LA Knight a "total ripoff" of The Rock and a reminder that the entire wrestling business is based off people patterning themselves after stars that came before them... longtime Vince McMahon lawyer Jerry McDevitt RETIRING later this year, some background on him and how he started working with WWE... the latest on Kota Ibushi debuting for AEW in the BLOOD & GUTS match next week and CM Punk offers to take Bryan Danielson's spot in the match against The Elite?... the latest update on how many tickets AEW has moved for Wembley Stadium and the WWE record they may be on the verge of shattering... why Eddie Kingston should be on the list of challengers for MJF's AEW World championship... Jon Moxley comments on blood in pro wrestling, why he's in favor of it being used MORE frequently and why his take is off the mark... FTR and Bullet Club gold steal the show on AEW Collision, which continues to drop in the ratings... a new Japanese women's promotion launching in the US soon?... thoughts on The Judgment Day coming to NXT and the first ever NXT Underground match... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Cody Rhodes and Edge swapping brands, Giulia from STARDOM kicking down the Forbidden Door, and should Randy Orton form his own version of Evolution?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Madison Square Garden for July 7th, 2023 with Roman Reigns going to TRIBAL COURT, which ended in disaster for The Usos, and Jey Uso coming back to challenge Roman to what will be our Summerslam main event. It was another in a long line of excellent Bloodline segments, but it came at the expense of everything else on the show. Even worse, they followed up MITB with no time for LA Knight anywhere on the show. How does that happen?

We open this week with news on the death of Darren Drozdov at age 54 and the catastrophic injury that ended his WWE career, but did not stop him from living his life. Then it's the MONEY IN THE BANK FALLOUT with thoughts on John Cena teasing the idea of a London Wrestlemania, why the AEW Wembley effect is very real and what it will actually take to get the show across the pond... Jey Uso handing Roman Reigns his first pinfall loss in more than three years, where it's leading and why last night was the peak of the Jey Uso story arc... why Damian Priest winning MITB made the most sense story-wise and why LA Knight, despite what others will tell you, is NOT buried, where the man was a year ago compared to now and what to do with him at Summerslam... news on Ronda Rousey's WWE status and why the shocking Shayna Baszler betrayal at MITB suddenly makes a lot more sense... Bryan Danielson suffers a broken door at Forbidden Arm and what it means for the Blood & Guts match on July 19th... Sting takes another wild bump on Dynamite and my concern for him going forward... AEW Collision thoughts, including CM Punk against Samoa Joe next week and where things could be headed for All In & All Out with Punk, Jay White, MJF and Adam Cole... LONE WOLF Baron Corbin returns on NXT... a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on the rise and fall of The Junkyard Dog, including the racism he encountered over the years, his success working for Bill Watts in Midsouth and the way he left for the WWF, the drug problems that ultimately led to his downfall, the night New Jack attacked him backstage in ECW and the sad circumstances around his death... plus, YOUR QUESTIONS on doing Danielson vs. Okada over Ospreay vs. Okada at the Tokyo Dome, what was the Ric Flair vs. Ricky Steamboat equivalent in WWE, why Sean O'Haire would NOT have had the career Batista did if he joined Evolution instead, the best WWE video packages ever, and the best TV moments where the villain got what was coming to them.

We did get the Raw debut of the NXT champion, Carmelo Hayes, in a losing effort 24 hours before his title defense against Baron Corbin, and another big debut of a former four-legged AEW star.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for June 23rd, with several changes to the card made by Vince McMahon, including Bayley's match being completely removed. Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler have unified the WWE and NXT Women's tag team titles. LA Knight picked up a big win over Rey Mysterio after the match fell apart in the closing moments. The Usos had a message for Roman Reigns, but after last wek's excellent Bloodline angle, this show tonight was a bore.

The open challenge they announced for Seth Rollins and the World Heavyweight Title never happened after Finn Balor attacked him and Tommaso Ciampa is back. Otherwise, a very missable episode that wasn't very exciting.

Solomonster has PLENTY to talk about this week with the debut of AEW Collision and the return of CM Punk, including comments from Punk that will likely have fans of The Elite punching the air. He gives his thoughts on Punk's first promo and match, why he's okay with Punk taking digs at the Young Bucks the way he did and the opponents already lined up for him. He also runs through key parts of the ESPN interview Punk gave talking about Hangman Page and apologizing to Tony Khan for the Brawl Out scrum.

DISNEY interested in WWE media rights?... a surprise ruling by the judge in the MLW antitrust lawsuit against WWE... CARLITO on his way back to WWE?... the latest on the status of Drew McIntyre and when WWE wants him back... Jey Uso makes his choice and The Usos LEAVE The Bloodline in an excellent segment on Smackdown... Mark Henry suggests that LA Knight let his WWE contract expire if they don't start paying attention... nearly two years after the birth of NXT 2.0 there's more main roster talent on the show than ever before... a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING review on the tragic tale of the Graham family, why it's the darkest episode so far this season and the land deal story that wasn't mentioned that may have played a role in Eddie's suicide... and YOUR QUESTIONS on the most underappreciated theme songs, a possible CM Punk/Jeff Hardy feud in AEW, the history between Shawn Michaels and Jose Lothario and pitching possible topics for a Bright Side of the Ring show!

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for June 5th, one of the better episodes of Raw since Wrestlemania, with Seth Rollins defending his new World Heavyweight Championship for the first time on TV against Damian Priest, with a tease of a potential fracture within The Judgment Day. Also, Kevin Owens and GUNTHER tear it up in the ring, two more MITB qualifying matches and Cody Rhodes calls Dominik Mysterio "a mistake" that Rey Mysterio made.

Solomonster woke up this morning to the news of two HUGE matches taking place at Forbidden Door this month and says it's about damn time! He talks about the brand split already being disregarded multiple times by WWE... after winning the Women's tag team titles, Ronda Rousey shoots on their DISMALLY SHALLOW women's division... possible stipulations for a third Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar match... the two people who SHOULD win both Money in the Bank matches this year, yes one of them is LA Knight, plus how and when he might cash in to win the title... thoughts on another quality Bloodline segment on Smackdown and where things may be headed at Summerslam... Roman Reigns gets a new championship belt and it's just more laziness from WWE... Alexa Bliss announces her pregnancy and the status of her WWE contract... Tony Khan announces the return of CM PUNK for the AEW Collision debut, the live reaction in San Diego to the news, what Ace Steel's role will be going forward, the talent that Punk has taken a liking to recently and might be working with first, and why he should absolutely NOT be the AEW World champion again... AEW teasing a possible match between MJF and GOLDBERG?... first images and gameplay released for Owen Hart in AEW Fight Forever and a message to the morons criticizing his involvement... Will Ospreay all but announces that he will be staying with New Japan and the main reason why we won't see him in WWE... the New Japan President talks about just how close they came to shutting their doors forever during the pandemic... Stan Lane finds out if he is the biological father of Republcan congresswoman Lauren Boebert...

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for June 2nd with Roman Reigns celebrating a thousand days as champion with a new title belt that somehow is a downgrade from what he had before. More importantly though, Solo Sikoa chose Roman over his own brothers in another dramatic Bloodline segment. LA Knight has also qualified for the Money in the Bank match and, beyond that, this was a very forgettable episode.

Solomonster reviews a very enjoyable post-Double or Nothing edition of AEW Dynamite for May 31st, with Tony Khan announcing the return of CM Punk for the AEW Collision debut, and doing so to a very mixed reaction in the building (and online). Let the fun and games begin. Plus, Don Callis melts in the HEAT generated inside the building in a segment where, at time, it was difficult to hear him because it was so loud. Adam Cole and Britt Baker also wrestle Chris Jericho and Saraya, why it was the right outcome and the match was light years better than their Unsanctioned match last Sunday.

Solomonster reviews AEW Double or Nothing 2023, one of the weaker PPV shows that AEW has ever produced, saved by the two main events including a Four Pillars match that blew everything else away and a shock twist at the end of Anarchy in the Arena. Plus, Kris Statlander makes a surprise return to become the "1" in Jade Cargill's 60-1 record, while Chris Jericho and Adam Cole disappoint in their Unsanctioned match.

SOUND OFF 810 runs down the AEW Double or Nothing card tonight with predictions for the show, which match should headline as the REAL main event and the possibility of a Jungle Boy heel turn soon. Plus, the latest on the CM Punk drama being resolved, what we know about AEW's new deal for Collision and AEW Fight Forever finally gets a release date, the list of features and thoughts on the game's graphics. Then it's time to discuss a THOUSAND DAYS of Roman Reigns as WWE Universal champion, the pros and cons of his run so far, the names that have been elevated and benefited the most, and thoughts on the dramatic Bloodline angle at Night of Champions involving The Usos, how their father could play into things and why we may be looking at a Bloodline four-way for Summerslam... Nick Khan talks about Raw possibly moving off Monday nights and Smackdown going THREE HOURS... Mercedes Mone suffers an ankle injury and the audible that got called in her STRONG Women's title match with Willow Nightingale... Hulk Hogan is asked by Ariel Helwani about his past racist comments and the whopper of an answer he gave, the idea Shane McMahon pitched to him for one final match at Wrestlemania and what his response was... Bret Hart gets his Wrestlemania VIII jacket back on Most Wanted Treasures...

Solomonster reviews WWE Night of Champions 2023 from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia with Roman Reigns hitting a thousand days as Universal champion and being betrayed by his own flesh and flood.

The show itself was a mixed bag, it had some good wrestling and a fiery Jon Moxley promo to sell the Anarchy in the Arena match between The Elite and the Blackpool Combat Club, but the rest of the push for Sunday, including the Four Pillars championship match, fell mostly flat. Also, SABU made his surprise AEW debut. Sabu!?

WWE NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS PREDICTIONS and who walks out the first World Heavyweight Champion between Seth Rollins and AJ Styles... AEW Collision is officially announced with all mentons of CM Punk being REMOVED, Ace Steel reportedly rehired by AEW and why Tony Khan is out of his mind if that's true, why things fell apart and if it can be salvaged this week, Punk attacks Bryan Alvarez on Instagram and why Tony Khan now finds himself in a no-win situation... the rumored REAL release date for AEW Fight Forever... reviewing WWE Most Wanted Treasures with the search for "Macho Man" Randy Savage items, the status of the old ICW master tapes revealed and Lany Poffo's final appearance before his death... WWE ranks the Top 25 greatest debuts in its history, going through the list and making some necessary adjustments, including some missing names and what he thinks is the BEST debut in WWE history... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Ric Flair's past heat with Scott Hall and Kevin Nash and why he thought the NWO was the worst faction of all time, was John Cena or Randy Orton the better MIDCARD champion, Rock's decision to leave wrestling for Hollywood and Dave Meltzer in the WWE Hall of Fame!?

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 17th with the announcement of AEW Collision debuting next month on TNT, which was overshadowed by even more drama today involving CM Punk, who was NOT announced by AEW. In fact, Warner Brothers Discovery says Punk has no affiliation with Collision whatsoever. The latest on the Punk rumors going around and how the deal to bring him back may well have fallen apart, what Ace Steel might have to do with it and more absolute nonsense. Despite the drama, Dynamite was an enjoyable show with a great Falls Count Anywhere match between Chris Jericho and Roderick Strong, and the return of Hangman Page to reunite with The Elite for Anarchy in the Arena at Double or Nothing.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!It's a MOTHER'S DAY edition of the Sound Off and the finals of the World Heavyweight Title tournament are now set with Seth Rollins and AJ Styles. Rollins has to be the favorite, but there's one very good reason why AJ Styles should win at Night of Champions and it has everything to do with Cody Rhodes. I'll map it all out for you and explain why it makes sense. Plus, Roman Reigns challenging for the Undisputed tag team titles at Night of Champions, why it's a lame move why it's important for WWE to stick the landing with the Bloodline story as it's lost some steam since Wrestlemania... why Triple H has a WOMEN'S problem on Smackdown and challengers for Bianca Belair... predicting who wins the battle royal on Raw this Monday for a shot at Gunther's Intercontinental title... WWE putting LA Knight in a TAG TEAM and why they picked the wrong partner for him... Bobby Roode undergoes his second neck fusion surgery and why his career may be done... rumors of AEW getting a new media rights deal for a BILLION DOLLARS, why it may just be pie in the sky and why a streaming component to any new deal is so important... when the announcement is coming for the new Saturday Collision show... the legal threats still looming over CM Punk and The Elite and my theory why they're not being "allowed" to apologize to each other... CM Punk pushing for a match with an old ROH rival, why I fully support this as his first match back and why I think he should LOSE... the latest ticket sales for Wembley Stadium may be great, but the numbers for Double or Nothing sure aren't... the latest on Kota Ibushi's AEW status and an offer from New Japan... AEW talent UNHAPPY about Will Ospreay taking a spot on the Wembley show?... and YOUR QUESTIONS on whether Edge ranks as a Top 10 all-time great, where the Christian blue dot story comes from, the Brock Lesnar/Bray Wyatt/Adam Cole match at Survivor Series that never happened, and what happened to the old TitanTron videos?

Then it's time to break down the 2023 WWE Draft, how the new Raw and Smackdown rosters stack up, the latest on Drew McIntyre's contract status and what his concerns are said to be, the names that were NOT drafted or mentioned at all during the draft and news on the "tournament" to crown a new World Heavyweight Champion at Night of Champions.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for May 1st and Night Two of the WWE Draft, a draft that Triple H told us would truly "change the game". He is left wondering how exactly the game has changed as it was a largely predictable event that re-arranged some of the furniture, but as always, it all falls back on how seriously they treat the brand split. Hidden behind the draft was a terribly boring episode of Raw that did little to excite heading into Backlash.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode!It's DRAFT WEEK for WWE and Solomonster is doing his own MOCK DRAFT remaking the Raw and Smackdown rosters and calling up names from NXT to try to freshen things up. He explains who's going where and why, why the titles should NOT be split and why the booking of the WWE women's division is the BIGGEST FAILURE of Triple H so far as the head of creative. Then he gets into the latest on CM Punk returning to AEW, including his planned return date, why he hasn't spoken with The Young Bucks since Brawl Out and why it's completely asinine that it hasn't happened yet, and listing all of the potential opponents for Punk to work with. ALSO... Hangman Page clarifies his comments about not taking advice from veterans... why Dax Harwood is ending his podcast... Bill Goldberg planning a retirement tour, the REAL reason he's not satisfied with the Roman Reigns match being his last, the chances of him working for AEW and who he should work with if he does, and the right opponent for him at Wrestlemania next year if WWE wanted to bring him back... Will Ospreay paints a bleak picture for how long he has left in the wrestling business... Ted DiBiase, Jr. indicted on multiple federal charges and the Million Dollar Man's response... the INSANE lawsuit filed by a former TNA star and you won't believe the list of defendants she's suing... NXT SPRING BREAKKIN' PREDICTIONS... and YOUR QUESTIONS on WWE becoming a heel territory under Triple H, what if Stone Cold had called an audible in his WM17 match with The Rock NOT to go heel... and if Paul Heyman to John Cena what Bobby Heenan was to Hulk Hogan?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for April 21st, a boring, lame duck show just killing time until the WWE Draft next week. The women's division is even worse under Triple H than it was under Vince McMahon. Oh, and Seth Rollins is wrestling Omos at Backlash. Why? Because f@*$ you, that's why!

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for April 17th, a pretty average episode that felt like they were mostly filling time until the draft in a couple of weeks. Brock Lesnar showed up, as advertised, and proceeded to say and do absolutely nothing, but Adam Pearce gave Cody his requested match at Backlash anyway. Also, Becky Lynch was missing, but Trish Stratus was there to explain her betrayal the week before.

CM Punk's return to AEW looks as likely as ever, but many of the same issues are said to exist with him and prominent members of the AEW locker room, and that is bad news for Tony Khan. Solomonster has a LOT to say about the situation, the latest on the upcoming AEW Saturday show and Punk's involvement including a debut date and rumors of a brand split, stupidity from Brandon Cutler and why The Elite MUST sit down with Punk even if they don't want to work with him. He also discusses the HUGE pre-sale registration numbers for AEW's Wembley Stadium show... contract news on Kenny Omega, FTR and Brian Cage... the return of Jeff Hardy to AEW and talk of him being a changed man this time around... one of the developers of AEW Fight Forever pushes back on talk of the game being finished, as Tony Khan and Kenny Omega have both stated... WWE replacing King and Queen of the Ring with Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia and why it's likely happening... Drew McIntyre misses another Smackdown and goes dark on social media... Corey Graves critiques the women's tag team division in WWE, why he's absolutely right and what can be done to fix it... a fourth season of Dark Side of the Ring announced and many of the episode subjects revealed... how to save Von Wagner's job in NXT before the inevitable happens... who should induct Paul Heyman into the Hall of Fame if he goes in next year in Philly... why Sunny and Sable had heat with each other in WWE... and favorite guilty pleasure matches!

Endeavor won the WWE sweepstakes this week, reaching a deal to merge the company with UFC to form a new company valued at more than $20 billion. Solomonster runs down the key details and how it affects YOU, the viewer, as well as the talent and employees who work there, the possibility of charging for PPVs, their deal with Saudi Arabia and more. He also talks about Vince McMahon's various lies and his complete destruction of Raw last Monday... one final word on why Cody Rhodes not facing enough "adversity" is nonsense... Triple H announcing the return of the WWE DRAFT and why it won't make a difference unless their attitude about the brand split changes, why splitting the top titles right now would be a mistake and potential NXT callups... Tony Khan announces AEW's London debut for WEMBLEY STADIUM, how it affects the status of All Out in Chicago, predicting an attendance figure for the show and ideas for potential attractions to try to sell tickets... Jay White is ALL ELITE and why that's a good thing... MAJOR news out of this weekend's New Japan Genesis show, including the next challenge for Mercedes Mone... thoughts on the passing of Bushwhacker Butch... the sad and SHOCKING situation involving the Guerrero family and Vickie's horrendous response on social media... Bret Hart comments on "pathetic" pro wrestling today and why he's not wrong... and one listener asks, are The Usos the GREATEST tag team of all time?

It was the post-Wrestlemania edition of Monday Night Raw and it sucked. The worst of all the post-Mania shows this company has ever produced, and it should come as no surprise that Mr. Moustache was back behind the scenes rewriting the show literally as it was happening. In fact, listen closely when I read the update from PWInsider late in the review and you might just be able to hear the life being sucked out of me.

Not surprisingly, Vikingo put on the match of a lifetime with Omega doing all he could to get the man over. This was a one match show, and if you didn't come for that one match, this was not the best episode of Dynamite you will ever see.

John Cena ruffles feathers with his comments about Vince McMahon and the sexual misconduct allegations against him... McMahon also KILLS the movie project about his life, and a former WWE writer shares what Vince said in regard to the fans being upset about Baron Corbin ending Kurt Angle's career... WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH BRAY WYATT?... the latest on this year's WWE Hall of Fame class and The Great Muta being inducted... a humorous look at how WWE decides on the attendance figures that it announces... NOT SO FAST on Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley getting the Night One main event at Wrestlemania... AEW announces this year's Forbidden Door show and location, including a swing through Canada and where they may be heading next... thoughts on the polarizing reaction to the announcement of Kenny Omega vs. El Hijo del Vikingo on AEW Dynamite this week... Davey Richards suddenly RETIRES (again) from professional wrestling, and why he did it... and then it's COUNTDOWN TIME as we rank the TEN BEST STORIES EVER TOLD in WWE history.

Kind of like this Raw episode, which didn't have a lot to get excited about.

Solomonster reviews AEW Revolution 2023 with MJF and Bryan Danielson going out and having the greatest Iron Man match that he's ever seen. That is no easy task and both men should be commended for it, though it was not without controversy with MJF tossing a drink on a young fan. But it was a night, up and down the card, of the veteran WWE talent putting over the AEW originals with Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho, Christian Cage, Samoa Joe and others doing the honors.

Solomonster reviews a very enjoyable episode of WWE Smackdown for March 3rd with Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes meeting face to face for the first time before their Wrestlemania showdown. The Bloodline drama continues with The Usos and Sami Zayn, everyone wants to challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental title and the Bray Wyatt/Uncle Howdy stuff continues to be the most frustratingly bad part of the show.

Solomonster reviews the final episode of AEW Dynamite before Revolution this Sunday and it was very much a mixed bag. Strong go-home promos from Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson were the hightlights, with Powerhouse Hobbs winning the Face of the Revolution ladder match, a dreadful tag team battle royal and more to discuss.

Reviewing an incredibly dull episode of Monday Night Raw for February 27th that you would never think was building to a big event like Wrestlemania. Becky Lynch and Lita are the new Women's Tag Team Champions, with an assist from Trish Stratus, while Brock Lesnar has accepted the challenge of Omos to a match on the grandest stage. I can barely contain my excitement.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for February 24th with another compeling Bloodline segment involving Sami Zayn and The Usos, an update on when Roman Reigns will return to the show, a bizarre Firefly Funhouse segment with Bray Wyatt that just left him confused more than anything and a "confrontation" between Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley that really wasn't much of one.

He explains why Triple H made the right decision to have Roman Reigns beat Sami Zayn and why he thinks he may have been too harsh on one aspect of last night's main event, where he thinks the Jey Uso story might be going and why this story is every bit as much about Jey as it is about Zayn, if not moreso. He also discusses the finish to Brock Lesnar against Bobby Lashley, the most disappointing thing about their matches and what to expect with Bray Wyatt at Wrestlemania... Edge challenging Austin Theory for the US title on Monday and what to expect... Mercedes Mone winning the IWGP Women's Championship and thoughts on the match with KAIRI...

Tony Khan calls Ariel Helwani a FRAUD and the not-so-subtle dig WWE took at Khan at Elimination Chamber... the death of Jerry Jarrett, his impact on the wrestling business, starting TNA with Jeff Jarrett and how Vince Russo was involved in the falling out they had, the time Jarrett tried to buy WCW and something that never gets discussed when it comes to why Jamie Kellner REALLY pulled the plug on WCW programming... NXT teasing a Shawn Michaels match with Grayson Waller, and what it's LIKELY leading to at Stand & Deliver... how Ric Flair saved Kurt Angle's career when WCW had interest in signing him... and why JOHN CENA is CM Punk's greatest rival.

Tragedy struck this week when Jay Briscoe, one half of the Ring of Honor tag team champions, was killed in an auto accident just shy of his 39th birthday. Today, I speak candidly on Jamin Pugh, the man, and Jay Briscoe, the wrestler... the circumstances of the accident, a medical update on his two daughters who suffered terrible injuries in the wreck, why The Briscoes will go down as one of the all-time great tag teams, personal memories of some key moments in his career including his time in House of Glory, the controversial tweets that followed him around for his career, why The Briscoes never landed in WWE (and it has nothing to do with tweets) and the HYPOCRISY of Warner Brothers Discovery not allowing Tony Khan to pay tribute to Jay on AEW TV. And then... WE'VE GOT A TON OF NEWS on Vince McMahon's latest hush money payment as part of his settlement with Rita Chatterton... Nick Khan's interview with Bill Simmons talking Vince's return, throwing shade at Tony Khan and one jaw-dropping comment that I could not believe... the major segment CANCELED for Raw XXX this Monday, what it's being replaced with and what it means for the status of The Rock at Wrestlemania... ROYAL RUMBLE 2023 PREDICTIONS for the winners and possible surprise entrants... New Japan and Pro Wrestling NOAH produce the hottest worked-shoot angle in years at Wrestle Kingdom... Sting and Darby Allin team with The Great Muta in his final match in the gimmick... MLW inks its biggest television deal to date... Kevin Nash's cryptic comments result in police being sent to his home and tons more.

Solomonster discusses why things may not be as they seem, the talent meeting Triple H led backsage at Smackdown and what he revealed about Vince McMahon's role, the shareholder lawsuit against Vince and why it will likely go nowhere, as well as the rumored SALE to Saudi Arabia, why a lot of wrestling reporters were left with egg on their faces and reports that Tony Khan and his family are interested in buying WWE (LOL). BUT THERE'S MORE... including the ridiculous figure Shane McMahon was paid for his lone appearance on WWE TV in 2022... WWE trying to halt discovery in the MLW lawsuit and what MLW wants them to hand over... Jay White possibly leaving New Japan for WWE or AEW...

It took all of six days into the new year for Vince McMahon to force his way BACK onto the WWE Board of Directors in an effort to sell the company. I've got a LOT to say about how this entire situation came to be, the letters back and forth between Vince McMahon and the Board members letting him know that they did NOT think it would be wise for him to return in the way that he wanted, his predictable response to that, the REAL reason why this is happening, what it means for creative and the current management team and running through the list of potential buyers, including who I think the likeliest choice would be. This is a VERY big deal and will have a huge impact, for better or worse, on the future of that company. But believe or not, there's other news as well... including a possible end to the practice of non-compete clauses and how it would affect pro wrestling... Sasha Banks makes her New Japan debut and could be primed to make her AEW debut this week... the two New Japan stars WWE has expressed an interest in signing... Money in the Bank coming to London for the first time ever... reports of a Bobby Lashley heel turn and Hurt Business reunion coming soon... Darby Allin wins the TNT championship from Samoa Joe and responding to ridiculous comments about Darby beating Joe... thoughts on AEW Rampage and the latest Battle of the Belts LIVE special... UFC President Dana White puts his new Power Slap League and TV deal with TBS in jeopardy after being caught on camera SLAPPING HIS WIFE (no, this is not satire)... John Laurinaitis tries crawling out from under his rock and promptly gets chased back under it... Asuka as a potential challenger for Charlotte Flair at Wrestlemania?... and news on my new position as the COMMISSIONER of House of Glory Wrestling!

In fact, if you look up and down the card, Tony Khan seems to have mastered the correct way of utilizing his veteran players to help get the younger talent over. Plus, breaking news on Mercedes Mone f/k/a Sasha Banks and her future with AEW.

But first, he discusses the shocking injury to Buffalo Bills safety Demar Hamlin during last night's Monday Night Football game, which was suspended indefinitely and will go down as one of the scariest nights in NFL history.

It's the annual PREDICTIONS SHOW with predictions for the world of wrestling in 2023 for WWE, AEW, WrestleMania, surprise Royal Rumble entrants, Forbidden Door II, the future of CM Punk and tons more. But before that, I have a lot of thoughts on the passing of former TNA announcer Don West... AJ Styles suffers a broken ankle and when he might be back... WWE touts its BIG signing of AAA star Dragon Lee, why it's best that he's starting on the NXT brand, how this all came to be after his AEW Dynamite appearance in the summer and the company's track record when it comes to past international signings... John Cena's likely opponent for WrestleMania 39... Charlotte Flair returns to win the Smackdown Women's championship and what it means for Ronda Rousey's future in WWE, including the status of a possible match with Becky Lynch.. the latest on Tyson Fury MISSING Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania payoffs due to immigration issues and rumors of him not wanting to even look vulnerable against any WWE talent... Dax Harwood sounds off on CM Punk on his new podcast and makes a plea to Punk and The Elite... WRESTLE KINGDOM 17 PREDICTIONS, including Sasha Banks becoming a free agent and starting the next chapter of her career... thoughts on the new Ric Flair documentary on Peacock, including what was missing from it... and finally, I'm reviewing my predictions for LAST YEAR to see what I got right and wrong, and running through my 2023 PREDICTIONS for the wrestling world. Do you agree with them?

It's the annual SOUND OFF CHRISTMAS SHOW and if you think that means Santa Solomonster was taking it easy this week, guess again! I've got a lot of thoughts on the Miro situation with AEW, his contract status, one report that a storyline was proposed for him that he rejected, his wife openly talking about him one day going back to WWE and why Tony Khan would be right to not want to invest much in him going forward. Plus, the latest on Mandy Rose raking in the dough after her firing... the latest Matt Riddle drama on social media... Bronson Reed chooses a WWE return over New Japan... Teddy Long wants Vince McMahon back in WWE... and Shawn Michaels pays homage to Bret Hart with an angle on this week's NXT. Then it's time to rank the 15 BEST WRESTLING MATCHES OF 2022 and hand out some end of the year awards for WRESTLER OF THE YEAR, as well as Tag Team of the Year, Rookie of the Year, Best and Worst Show of the Year and the BIGGEST news stories in what will go down as the wildest year in wrestling history. AND WE'RE NOT DONE... I'm answering your mailbag questions about Sheamus' future as a top guy, Zack Sabre Jr. as a future IWGP heavyweight champion and who would you say is the modern day Bret Hart? Merry Christmas to all who celebrate, and thank you for 15 fantastic years with many more to come.

Just when we thought the nightmare was over, The Wall Street Journal reports that Vince McMahon is plotting a COMEBACK to WWE, but can this really happen? Solomonster addresses the story, and new allegations against McMahon not previously reported, how people inside the company are said to be reacting, the pros and cons of the Triple H era so far and talk of hom being underwhelmed with some of the talent thay he's brought back... plus, thoughts on the lazy Vince McMahon VICE documentary... Mandy Rose being FIRED by WWE after her long run as NXT Women's champion, what led to her release, why he doesn't view WWE as the bad guys here and who the real victims are in all of this... LOTS of news on Sasha Banks appearing at Wrestle Kingdom next month, why the negotiations fell apart over a WWE return and the company reportedly feeling that she's not deserving of money comparable to Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair because she's already PEAKED... Matt Riddle sent to rehab after a second drug test failure?... the MAJOR match rumored for WrestleMania involving Brock Lesnar... AEW makes a big backstage hire and what it could mean for Dynamite and Rampage starting next month... Hacksaw Jim Duggan takes down a HOME INTRUDER... and should Tony Khan give up on running Ring of Honor as a separate company?

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for December 5th, featuring two Triple Threat matches with the winners to meet next week to determine a #1 contender for Bianca Belair and the Raw Women's Championship, and JBL hosting a high-stakes Poker Invitational. The first hour started with promise, but last half of the show fell off a cliff.

The Royal Rumble rumor machine is already working overtime and Solomonster has a lot to say about why The Rock should NOT win the Royal Rumble match, one solution to the question of who faces Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania, a HELL IN A CELL match being discussed for the Rumble and a PITCH BLACK match, possibly involving Bray Wyatt... plus, William Regal GONE from AEW and on his way back to work for Triple H... WWE said to be running a major show in Puerto Rico and Dominik Mysterio's rumored Wrestlemania opponent (and it's NOT Rey Mysterio)... one former Impact star on his way back to WWE while another is not expected back in the ring anytime soon... the latest on CM Punk and his status with AEW and their video game... Dustin Rhodes calling it quits next year... a big mistake Tony Khan should not make on Dynamite this week with MJF and Ricky Starks... Ring of Honor FINAL BATTLE PREDICTIONS... Iron Survivor participants announced for NXT Deadline and the NXT review goes off the rails... Tales from the Territories looks at Jim Crockett Promotions with lots of great stories about the plane crash that nearly changed wrestling history, Jim Cornette blows out his knees in the scaffold fall, Nikkita Koloff auditioning for an iconic part in one of the Rocky movies and how Tully Blanchard ended Ricky Morton's marriage... and answering YOUR questions on who Charlotte Flair should be wrestling when she comes back, a retirement swerve with Randy Orton and the sad truth about why there isn't more of a focus on classic content on the WWE Network.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite with what may end up being the final appearance on AEW television by William Regal, who was attacked and left for dead by MJF. Lots of rumors about Regal heading back to WWE soon. The seeds were planted for Bryan Danielson to challenge MJF for the AEW World championship, while Hangman Page returned and got into it with Jon Moxley and The Elite finally got a win over Death Triangle.

Solomonster reviews the post Survivor Series edition of Monday Night Raw for November 28th with maybe the best opening hour of the show all year. It fell off a bit after that until the main event with Kevin Owens challenging Jey Uso, on a night where Owens and Sami Zayn called an end to their 25-year friendship. The stage has been set for an eventual reunion and Wrestlemania payoff, but first, we have the Royal Rumble to get through. Seth Rollins also raided his wife's closet and showed wearing his most horrifying outfit yet.

With War Games in the books and a chance to sleep on things, I've got thoughts on Survivor Series, including GREATNESS from the Bloodline story with Sami Zayn, where to take the story from here, the scheduled opponent for Roman Reigns at the Royal Rumble and the last truly great moves Vince McMahon made as Chairman of WWE. I also discuss what may have been the WORST Women's Championship match I've ever seen on a WWE PPV and Triple H's comments at the post-show press conference, including the future of War Games and other gimmick shows like Hell in a Cell and Money in the Bank. Plus, rumors of William Regal heading back to WWE soon... Randy Orton undergoes major back surgery that could put his career in jeopardy... WrestleMania 2027 coming to Music City USA?... Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks TROLL the Chicago fans and CM Punk and why I had no problem with them doing so... how Colt Cabana almost DIED in his match with Chris Jericho on AEW Dynamite... Cain Velasquez out on bail on attempted murder charges and allowed to wrestle for AAA... thoughts on the repackaging of TWO main roster stars on NXT this week in Donovan Dijak and SCRYPTS... thoughts on Tales from the Territories on Dallas and the Von Erichs with yet ANOTHER eyeball story... and YOUR questions about Roman Reigns and the Royal Rumble, what to do with Sami Zayn, my top three favorite Elimination Chamber matches, and who had the better first year return, Shawn Michaels in 2002 or CM Punk in 2021?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for November 25th, the go home show to Survivor Series with Becky Lynch returning as the final member of the women's War Games match. Also, more Bloodline drama with Sami Zayn and Jey Uso, a major upset in the World Cup Tournament and a very creepy phone call gives us a window into just how disturbed Bray Wyatt is... or is it in reference to someone else? Plus, predictions for Survivor Series and both War Games matches, and a quick AEW Rampage recap.

Solomonster reviews the post Full Gear episode of AEW Dynamite for Thanksgiving Eve with Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks walking into hostile territory in CM Punk country. The show had a feel that a lot of episodes in recent months hasn't had, which is something AEW has been missing for a while. Chris Jericho and Tomohiro Ishii go to war for the ROH World title, Ricky Starks punches his ticket to a match with MJF at Winter Is Coming, Jon Moxley confronts William Regal about his betrayal and Thunder Rosa relinquishes her AEW Women's World title.

Solomonster reviews AEW Full Gear 2022, one of the company's best efforts all year and exactly the kind of show they needed at exactly the right time that needed it. We had the crowning of MJF as the new World Heavyweight Champion, thanks to an assist from William Regal that poses an interesting creative twist moving forward. The Elite return to AEW with a loss, Jamie Hayter shocks the world, Saraya returns to the ring after five years away and lots more to discuss.

Solomonster is running on little sleep after Full Gear last night, but there's LOTS to discuss, including why the show was an important reset for AEW with MJF winning the World championship, his profane rant at the media scrum after the show and Tony Khan doesn't give a very good answer on the lack of Miro appearances on television. Plus, breaking news on Kenny Omega challenging Will Ospreay at the Tokyo Dome and KAIRI becoming the first ever IWGP Women's Champion. He also gives his thoughts on 10 years since The Shield debuted at Survivor Series... WWE offering "Stone Cold" Steve Austin another Wrestlemania match and rumored names as potential opponents, including John Cena... Kevin Owens returns to join War Games against The Bloodline... breaking down Austin Theory to build him back up... Shawn Michaels announces the NXT Iron Survivor match and one aspect sounds an awful lot like an old TNA match... Chris Jericho wants pro wrestling to be an OLYMPIC SPORT... Scotty 2 Hotty deletes his Twitter account after a "controversial" take on intergender matches (LOL)... reviewing the Portland wrestling episode of Tales from the Territories and why you can thank "Playboy" Buddy Rose for footage of their shows still existing... YOUR questions on why Vince McMahon never bought the NWA, what the ideal final match would've been for Hulk Hogan, memorable WCW theme songs and trying to explain some of the MOST DISGUSTING PROMOTIONAL TACTIC awards handed out by the Wrestling Observer.

20 years ago, WWE held the 2002 Survivor Series from Madison Square Garden and debuted a brand new match concept called THE ELIMINATION CHAMBER with six men competing for the World Heavyweight Championship. The match is looked back on fondly, but in the words of Chris Jericho, was a disaster and a comedy of errors that had no right being as good as it was. Watch along with Solomonster as he discusses the match, the overall PPV, the aftermath and celebrates the 15 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the Solomonster Sounds Off!

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Full Gear this Saturday, which had some bright spots but did not do much to get him much more interested in the PPV than he already was. This build has been lacking. Jon Moxley and MJF gave us a pretty paint-by-numbers final segment, while Britt Baker delivered the best promo of her career on Saraya. Plus, Full Gear predictions and Be The Booker returns!

Harley Race, Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Terry Funk... AND TYRUS? Yes, the NWA officially jumped the shark last night and killed off whatever credibility the Ten Pounds of Gold may have had left, in the same week that WWE retired the 24/7 championship. Solomonster discusses Billy Corgan's braindead decision, Nick Aldis leaving the promotion and the drama that unfolded between the two of them this week. Speaking of braindead, he also reacts to Road Dogg's comments about Bret Hart not being a great wrestler... the worst Money in the Bank cash-in of all time with Austin Theory... how War Games is shaping up for Survivor Series... how and when Saraya got cleared to wrestle again... AEW FULL GEAR 2022 PREDICTIONS and how you can win a replica AEW World Championship... the latest Tales from the Territories covering Polynesian Pacific Pro Wrestling, including another ridiculous eyeball story and what REALLY happened to Billy Robinson's eye, the infamous fan riot in Honolulu, and the trial that ultimately ended the promotion... and YOUR questions on Edge retiring and who his final opponent should be, WWE possibly doing Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. John Cena at Wrestlemania, Ric Flair's heart attack on Nitro, and could The Rock be BOOED if he tried?

ONE MORE MATCH for Stone Cold Steve Austin?... Sasha Banks teasing something big and how to use her at Survivor Series... Matt Hardy claims "first person" perspective on the CM Punk/Elite situation, then walks back those comments... the pros and cons of Jeff Jarrett joining AEW... thoughts on the Jade Cargill/Marina Shafir match on Dynamite, Jade's comments on TV time for the AEW women and looking at how injuries have ravaged their roster... FIVE NXT releases, including a surprising name, and the injury news for R-Truth doesn't look good... Tales from the Territories review on Stampede Wrestling and why Andre the Giant stopped working for Stu Hart... what AEW needs to do to turn things around and make their shows must see again... and reflecting back five years later on the Sexy Star incident with Rosemary at TripleMania.

Gunther and Rey Mysterio put on a banger for the Intercontinental title and Bray Wyatt is starting to crack under the pressure, while over on AEW, Mike Tyson returns as a guest commentator for Orange Cassidy against Katsuyori Shibata.

There was a LOT going on, including the debut of Jeff Jarrett, Katsuyori Shibata making a surprise appearance, Colt Cabana returning to AEW television to challenge for the Ring of Honor World title and a TBS championship match that will go down as one of the worst segments of the year.

Solomonster is still hung over from last night's Extreme Rules show and the return of Bray Wyatt (or maybe it's the lack of sleep) and has a lot to say about the reaction to Wyatt, what the appearance of the Firefly Funhouse characters could mean, how different things may be for him under Triple H and what will ultimately determine the fate of the character... WWE shakes up its announce teams, Jimmy Smith talks about how Triple H accidentally told him he was fired, Nigel McGuinness released and one consideration to make before people say he should go to AEW... the latest installment of ALL ELITE ELEMENTARY with Andrade attacking Sammy Guevara backstage and trying to get fired, the events that led up to it, what Tony Khan should do about Andrade and why it was a mistake to put Sammy on TV that night... Jon Moxley signs a five-year contract extension with AEW and why it may be Tony Khan's most important signing to date... Saraya cleared to wrestle by the AEW doctor, but is he the only one?... Vince Russo locks up SAD TWEET honors this week for his exchange with Mustafa Ali and his RACIST COP story pitch... a review for the Memphis episode of Vice's TALES FROM THE TERRITORIES, and even more details on the Waffle House incident with Randy Savage... and was Mike Tyson REALLY going to work a match with Hulk Hogan?

Solomonster rings in his birthday reviewing AEW Dynamite for October 5th on the three year anniversary of the very first Dynamite. It was a night marred by more backstage drama with Andrade El Idolo and Sammy Guevara getting into a backstage confrontation that ended with Andrade being sent home. Tony Khan MUST get a handle on the All Elite Daycare Center because this sort of thing simply cannot continue.

WWE EXTREME RULES PREDICTIONS, the latest on the White Rabbit reveal and how successful the storyline has been so far... Seth Rollins opens up to Ariel Helwani about why his Hell in a Cell match with The Fiend happened the way that it did, why he thinks few people who worked with Bray Wyatt came out of it better than they went into it and why it bothers him that he's never been viewed as "The Guy" in WWE... Tony Khan not granting any AEW releases and how the situation differs from someone like Mustafa Ali in WWE... Malakai Black goes off on Instagram about the rumors of his contract status with AEW and death threats he's received... ticket sales numbers for AEW and they're not good, and an impromptu STATE OF AEW ADDRESS on Dynamite's three year anniversary... an update on new title designs coming soon to WWE... rumor killer on Kevin Dunn and a word on trusting "sources" on social media...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for September 28th coming off last week's Grand Slam show. Chris Jericho and Bandido tore it up in the main event and, in all honesty, without the Jericho stuff, this show would have been worse off. Juice Robinson made his AEW debut against Jon Moxley, while Saraya spoke for the first time and did not impress. If she intends to be the "revolution" for this AEW women's division, it's going to take a lot more than the kind of thing we saw on this show.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for September 26th with even MORE clues in the White Rabbit mystery that Bray Wyatt is on his way back to WWE. Raw was also a night of long matches, most of which were very good, and it's what helped carry the entire show this week. Edge returns and challenges Finn Balor for Extreme Rules, while Bayley adds a stipulation to her Raw Women's Championship match with Bianca Belair, and Candice LeRae makes her Raw debut.
another clue expected in the ongoing White Rabbit mystery, and "Honorary Uce" Sami Zayn comes to Raw, with Solo Sikoa, to do battle with AJ Styles.

With one move, Triple H just made Survivor Series relevant again by introducing WAR GAMES to the main roster. I couldn't be happier as I've been calling for this for more than a decade and I have the receipts to prove it. I've got news on what it means for brand warfare, Triple H's comments about blood in WWE, what the men's and women's matches might look like and why it has HUGE storyline implications for The Bloodline. Plus, the latest on the WHITE RABBIT mystery and the surest sign yet that Bray Wyatt is coming back... the return of the FIGHT PIT match and why Triple H should pick up the phone and call Ken Shamrock to be the guest referee... thoughts on my trip to AEW GRAND SLAM at Arthur Ashe Stadium... Saraya makes her AEW debut, how she can be a gamechanger for their women's division and the latest on her in-ring status... The House of Black collapses with Malakai Black admitting he's asked for his AEW release, and now breaking news on Buddy Matthews stepping away... Bobby Fish reportedly tries to get Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly to ask for their AEW releases... Sting and The Great Muta reunite and why their appearance at Grand Slam won't be their last together... Eric Bischoff's latest comments about Tony Khan... and who is MISTER ROYAL RUMBLE?

We're one week removed from the most disgraceful night in AEW history and as the investigation contiunues into what happened, Solomonster says the biggest decisions Tony Khan must make are yet to come with CM Punk and The Elite. He believes Punk has to go, and that was before any fists were thrown backstage. He explains why and also has news on The Young Bucks sending feelers to WWE, why the Trios titles aren't the ONLY titles that should be stripped from Kenny Omega and The Bucks, thoughts on the AEW championship tournament, Malakai Black stepping away from the company, Kris Statlander undergoing surgery and why Jamie Hayter should now be the one to dethrone Jade Cargill for the TBS title...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for September 7th coming off the most tumultuous weekend in AEW history. Lots of rumors of multiple AEW stars and staffers being suspended, including Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks, and that CM Punk was injured in his All Out match. All three have been STRIPPED of their championships with a new AEW champion to be crowned at Grand Slam, and Death Triangle winning the Trios titles. Jon Moxley also proved why he is the true ace of AEW.
Solomonster reacts to the wildest media scrum you'll ever see coming out of the AEW All Out 2022 show with CM Punk going nuclear on Colt Cabana, Hangman Adam Page, The Young Bucks and more, all while Tony Khan sat beside him doing nothing. Tony Khan also spoke about WWE competing with them this past weekend and other notes on the return of MJF, Malakai Black, Christian Cage, Toni Storm and more.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for August 31st from Chicago, the go home episode before All Out 2022. After squashing CM Punk last week to become the Undisputed AEW World Champion, Jon Moxley threw out an open contract for a match this Sunday, which was later accepted by CM Punk. While the promo work from both men was very good, there was one glaring logic hole that could not be overlooked in how they handled things. On the other hand, Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay shared a ring in the Trios Tournament Semi-Final and it was everything you would expect. Also included are predictions for all of the matche at All Out.

On the flip side, we had more greatness from Sami Zayn, The Usos and Kevin Owens to further what is the best story being told in wrestling right now, and a terrific promo exchange between Seth Rollins and MATT RIDDLE.

The past few weeks have been the most dysfunctional in AEW history, so much so that Tony Khan called a meeting with all talent backstage before Dynamite to address the troops. Solomonster has details on what was said in that meeting, including why their legal department sent an email to Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan... rumor killers on the relationship between AEW and Warner/Discovery... reaction to Jon Moxley squashing CM Punk to become the Undisputed AEW World champion, where it's likely going and a defending Moxley from all the hate he gets... why AEW suspended Eddie Kingston, Sammy Guevara's response and why Disco Inferno was trending... the controversy around Thunder Rosa, Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter and Rosa's comments about it on Busted Open Radio... Triple H says goodbye to Jeff Jarrett and welcome back to the Road Dogg, but there's another name he should be bringing back ASAP... the latest on the WWE Draft and a possible move to TV-14... new designs for championship belts coming to WWE?... the return of Johnny Gargano and where it should be leading... the very rushed build to Worlds Collide with NXT and NXT UK... John Cena at Survivor Series in Boston this year... and details on WWE's Jerk of the Month belt that you never knew existed.

One year ago this weekend, CM Punk returned after a seven year absence and made his AEW debut. Solomonster discusses the impact his run has had on the company, his match with Jon Moxley being moved from the All Out PPV to Dynamite this week, the fallout from his comments about Hangman Adam Page and his actions causing DRAMA behind the scenes. If it's a work, it could be one of the all-time great builds to a heel turn with MJF coming back to save the day, but if it's not, Tony Khan needs to get his house in order before things spiral out of control. He also reacts to the death of NXT UK and all of the released talents, WWE launching NXT Europe next year and why independent promoters should have a lump in their throats right now... WWE accused of contract tampering in reaching out to at least one current AEW star about a possible return to the company... what makes Sami Zayn so great and where things could be headed with him and Roman Reigns... Triple H makes another change to a Vince McMahon policy that has WWE talent very happy... Charlotte Flair talks about the infamous belt swap segment with Becky Lynch on the Broken Skull Sessions... Okada wins the G1 Climax and a BIG change New Japan is making to Wrestle Kingdom next year... thoughts on the A&E Biography on D-Generation X, its influence on the business and why the NWO was far bigger, plus thoughts on the Rivals episode on Triple H vs. Mick Foley... what was the better half of Undertaker's career?... were Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns each other's greatest rivals?... and non-spoiler thoughts on the series finale of Better Call Saul.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for August 19th with Smackdown celebrating 1,200 episodes and the WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns going face to face with Drew McIntyre. The real star of the show though was Sami Zayn, who finally got his meeting with the Tribal Chief in the closest thing we've had to a modern day Rock and Sock dynamic with Rock and Mankind. Sheamus is also going to Clash at the Castle to challenge Gunther for the Intercontinental title and BODIES WILL BE BATTERED.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for August 15th with a heavy emphasis on wrestling in a week where things were quiet with Triple H holding back on any talent returns. Drew McIntyre had a passionate exchange with Kevin Owens, the likes of which we haven't seen from anyone on this show in a long time, while AJ Styles and Bobby Lashley met for the very first time with another impromptu Dexter Lumis cameo.

Solomonster says it's been all about comebacks of late, with Triple H bringing back past NXT talents who never got a fair shake and Tony Khan getting big names back like CM Punk and very likely Kenny Omega. He's got news on all of them, including the crazy cliffhanger at the end of Raw with Dexter Lumis, the return of Hit Row on Smackdown and what Triple H said to Top Dolla that should give the talent and the fans reason to be optimistic about the future in WWE... plus, John Laurinaitis officially terminated by WWE... even MORE previously unrecorded payments from Vince McMahon uncovered... news on the upcoming WWE Draft and what moves Triple H should make... where Karrion Kross is slotted internally on the Smackdown roster and what Triple H's reaction was to his time on the main roster... Bray Wyatt rumored to be on his way back to WWE, what Vince McMahon say about his physique and several examples of talents being deemed "difficult to work with" after pushing back on bad creative... very bad news for Kris Statlander and her chances of being the first to beat Jade Cargill... real concern about the future of the NXT UK brand and why it's warranted... NXT HEATWAVE PREDICTIONS... and lots of thoughts about the A&E Biography on Lex Luger, what was and was NOT talked about, the motorcycle accident that nearly took his arm, his doomed run in WWE as the All American babyface and the Lex Express, the death of Miss Elizabeth, his spinal stroke and what he says he would do if he is inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.

Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns have a WILD Last Man Standing Match, Becky Lynch turns babyface while Bayley returns with some familiar NXT names at her side and Ronda Rousey snaps after a controversial loss to Liv Morgan.

It's the most important Sound Off in 15 years as Solomonster reacts to Vince McMahon RETIRING from WWE, the reason this is happening now, the internal memo he sent to talent and their reaction to the news, what his legacy will be, Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan being named co-CEOs, possible candidates to run creative and why real change is now possible in WWE. But that's not all... news on Brock Lesnar walking out of Smackdown on Friday before returning to the building, why this could the beginning of the end for him in the company, and the WWE Hall of Famer who went on Twitter and embarrassed himself in jumping up to defend his former boss. Plus, ROH Death Before Dishonor thoughts on another classic with FTR and the Briscoes, Claudio Castagnoli winning his first World championship, Jonathan Gresham CUSSES OUT Tony Khan before the show and asks for his release... an update on CM Punk and it's not looking good for an All Out return... thoughts on the angle to set up Ric Flair's final match next Sunday... backstage drama in the NWA between Billy Corgan and Nick Aldis leads to an awful booking decision for their PPV main event... one of the dumbest segments in the history of Monday Night Raw... and YOUR questions on Mister Summerslam, the issue with Macho Man's father that led to Gordon Solie quitting WCW in 1995, and the story of the PLAN B video that nearly threw the wrestling world into chaos 40 years ago.

It was another bad day for Vince McMahon, but its business as usual for Solomonster who reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for July 8th with Roman Reigns returning to address his Last Man Standing match with Brock Lesnar at Summerslam. WWE also advertised a main event to determine a challenger to the championship at Clash at the Castle, only to pull a bait and switch on us at the very end of the night. That wasn't even the worst of an otherwise abysmal episode.

Solomonster reviews the BLOOD AND GUTS episode of AEW Dynamite for June 29th, with the company packing in 13,000 loud fans for its Detroit debut. It was a bloody, brutal affair as advertised with Claudio Castagnoli making his Dynamite debut as the newest member of the Blackpool Combat Club and winning the match for his team. Unfortunately, it was not without victims as it appears Santana went down with a legitimate injury. He discusses the match, the latest turn with Christian Cage and Luchasaurus, Orange Cassidy's new music and tons of your questions about all sorts of topics.

Solomonster reviews AEW x New Japan Forbidden Door 2022 from the United Center in Chicago, the best top to bottom wrestling show of the year so far.

Solomonster has final predictions for the AEW Forbidden Door PPV, a show that maybe should have STAYED forbidden as the cursed card continues to change following a rash of injuries. He also discusses what Tony Khan did that greatly upset Jon Moxley, and Orange Cassidy's new theme music that AEW just secured the rights to use... John Laurinaitis OUT as head of talent relations in WWE, at least temporarily, while Bruce Prichard replaces him while still maintaining all of his other creative duties and Vince McMahon continues to randomly appear on television like nothing is wrong... Triple H makes a surprise trip to Orlando and tells the folks down there that he's "back", leaving everyone wondering what that actually means... Tammy Sytch loses her lawyer after the court grants his request to no longer represent her because even he wants nothing to do with her... and thoughts on the 15 year anniversary of the Chris Benoit murder-suicide.

Reviewing WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for June 24th with an Intercontinental championship match, more Money in the Bank qualifiers and the final build before AEW Forbidden Door this Sunday.

In what will end up being the biggest news story of the entire year, Vince McMahon has stepped back as the CEO and Chairman of WWE after news broke of an investigaton into alleged misconduct, and Stephanie McMahon has been appointed Interim CEO and Chairwoman. That is quite the turn of events after she herself recently stepped away to take a leave of absence from the company. Solomonster sorts through it all and reacts to the news, what he thinks the future holds for John Laurinaitis who was also named, the REAL reason Vince McMahon appeared on Smackdown this week and why people should not get their hopes up for any real creative change. He also talks about today's 20th anniversary of Impact Wrestling... Jeff Hardy being arrested for DUI and suspended by AEW... the death of Dave Hebner and one of the greatest angles of all time that he was part of... Randy Orton OUT of the Summerslam main event and Brock Lesnar IN against Roman Reigns, and how Money in the Bank is likely to factor into it... the latest on Sasha Banks and her status with WWE... who Will Ospreay was SUPPOSED to wrestle at Forbidden Door, why it was changed and lots of other AEW notes. A packed episode!

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for June 17th with Vince McMahon, after stepping back as Chairman and CEO of WWE, making an appearance to address the situation. He came out and said nothing, but just the fact that he chose to appear on TV spoke volumes about the message he was sending. Also, thoughts on Roman Reigns coming out of hibernation to defend his WWE Universal Championship against Matt Riddle and the return of Brock Lesnar for ANOTHER match with Reigns at Summerslam.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for June 10th with WALTER getting his first taste of gold on the WWE main roster and a news on company executives being very high on him right now, as well they should be. We also had a pair of Money in the Bank qualifying matches that could not have been anymore different, and Riddle earns the right to challenge Roman Reigns for the Undisputed championship next Friday, should Roman decide to actually show up. On Rampage, Kris Statlander impresses and Will Ospreay LOSES in his AEW in-ring debut, which is certainly... a decision that was made.

Solomonster reviews WWE Hell in a Cell 2022 from Chicago with Cody Rhodes turning in a gutsy, yet also very stupid performance inside Hell in a Cell with a completely torn pectoral muscle. He and Seth Rollins turned out an excellent match under the circumstances, as did the ladies who killed it in their Triple Threat Match for the Raw Women's Championship. This was not a show with a very inspired build, but it ended up being a good effort overall with no real surprises.

In what was the most newsworthy week in AEW history, Solomonster reacts to CM Punk's injury and status as the AEW World champion, how this affects Forbidden Door, and Tony Khan's decision to crown an Interim AEW World champion instead of having Punk vacate the title. If Khan really wants to shake things up and get people talking, there's only one choice for who should win that interim title, and his name is MJF. He also talks HELL IN A CELL 2022 PREDICTIONS and why Bray Wyatt could be back on WWE television as soon as tonight... 25 years of Hell in a Cell, the best cell matches in history and what doomed the concept from ever feeling truly special again... WWE plays hot potato with Lacey Evans... Impact Wrestling loses two big names, one of whom would be a good fit to return to WWE... NXT In Your House 2022 review... thoughts on Jeff Jarrett's appearance on the Broken Skull Sessions... changing the Money in the Bank concept... and the night Hulk Hogan had a face-off with Giant Gonzalez?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for June 3rd, including CM Punk announcing he's injured and will need surgery, which also takes him out of the match with Hiroshi Tanahashi at Forbidden Door. AEW will now crown an interim AEW World champion and we discuss the potential candidates for the spot, including MJF and how this could tie in well with his ongoing war with Tony Khan. This is a chance for AEW to take a negative and turn it into a major positive. Meanwhile, Smackdown was much ado about nothing with just one match announced for the Hell in a Cell PPV this Sunday.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for June 1st from The Forum in Inglewood, AEW's California debut, with CM Punk's first appearance as AEW World champion as he finds out his opponent for Forbidden Door later this month, one of the all time greats. MJF drops a pipebomb of his own on Tony Khan and what it was about the promo that made it so effective, plus Miro returns and the second BLOOD N' GUTS match is announced.

A long show, too long in fact, but a very good effort overall.
As AEW prepares for one of its biggest shows of the year, they could be on the verge of losing one of their biggest stars. Solomonster has all the breaking details about MJF no-showing a fan meet & greet ahead of tonight's Double or Nothing event and booking a flight out of Las Vegas that he apparently did not take, what the issues with him and Tony Khan likely stem from, the differences between this situation and the WWE situation with Sasha Banks and Naomi, and why Wardlow is the one who ultimately gets screwed in this situation as their match appears to be in jeopardy.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 25th from Las Vegas, celebrating three years since the first official AEW event in that very city. It's also the final Dynamite before Double or Nothing with Wardlow in a steel cage against Shawn Spears, a very angry Hangman Adam Page confronts CM Punk, the first New Japan tease ahead of the Forbidden Door and Trent Beretta puts himself through a table.
In a week that started with Sasha Banks and Naomi walking out of Monday Night Raw, it ended with them being suspended and stripped of their WWE Women's tag team titles, and things are getting nasty. Solomonster reacts to the news and where he stands on everything, what the original plans were for them, news on their contracts coming due soon and how that plays into things, why WWE should get rid of the Women's tag team belts, why Sasha Banks would likely end up being unhappy in AEW and lots more. He also discusses the shocking announcement that Stephanie McMahon is taking a "leave of absence" from WWE... the unification of the Raw and Smackdown tag team titles...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 18th from Houston, TX with thoughts on Johnny Elite and Maki Itoh revealed as the Jokers in the Owen Hart Foundation tournaments, AEW's issue with time management and the Adam Cole vs. Jeff Hardy main event that barely even happened, why the segments with MJF and Wardlow have consistently been the best television from AEW, a disappointing face-off with Chris Jericho and William Regal, and breaking news on a possible injury to Bryan Danielson at the AEW Rampage taping.
Solomonster talks about Kota Ibushi going SCORCHED EARTH on New Japan this week, why it seems to be happening and why it likely spells the end of his career there... Tammy Sytch FINALLY behind bars after getting her bail revoked... Fightful reporting that MJF is seriously leaning towards leaving AEW when his contract is up, likely to go to WWE, and why Tony Khan must do everything within his power to make sure that doesn't happen... controversy with Hikaru Shida after she's replaced in the Owen Hart Foundation tournament due to "injury" when she makes it clear she's very much not injured... details on Roman Reigns' new deal with WWE, what it means and why if the company knew he'd be making fewer appearances it made little sense to put both of their top titles on him... WWE now going through with a tag team title unification this week with The Usos and RKBro (lol, no they're not)...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 11th, a big rebound from last week's show with one of their best in a while. Including a stunt show main event with Darby Allin and Jeff Hardy that may be the craziest 10 minute match you'll ever see, but only one of them is moving on in the Owen Hart Foundation tournament. Plus, thoughts on the contract signing segment with Wardlow and MJF, and CM Punk having fun with the Long Island crowd and getting booed out of the building.
Solomonster reviews WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022, a show that he had little excitement for coming into it but ended up exceeding his expectations. It was still mostly a filler show, but the action was largely very good and the talent delivered with The Bloodline picking up a win they didn't need, Ronda Rousey winning the Smackdown Women's championship and sending Charlotte Flair off television for a while, and Rhea Ripley joining Judgment Day.
It's a MOTHER'S DAY EDITION of the Sound Off and Solomonster has predictions for tonight's WrestleMania Backlash show, with thoughts on the report that WWE never actually intended to move ahead with a tag team title unification, why he doesn't really believe that and Roman Reigns TEASING that his time in WWE may be winding down...

News of the FORBIDDEN DOOR show being hosted by AEW and New Japan has generated a lot of excitement this week, but also, a lot of phony concern from certain fans online about how AEW is failing to attract "casual viewers" with such a show. Solomonster hasn't seen this many horrendous takes since... well, given this community, probably only a week ago. He puts these fools in their place and explains why it's okay for Tony Khan to give WRESTLING FANS something fun on his WRESTLING SHOW. You know, the same wrestling show he got $175 million from WarnerMedia for. Then, he runs down some potential matches for the show and has news on Kushida leaving WWE at the most opportune of times. But that's not all... WWE is celebrating 20 YEARS OF RANDY ORTON this week and Solomonster gives his thoughts on Orton's career, the five best Randy Orton matches, and he makes the pitch for a match at WrestleMania 40 that he can't even believe he's suggesting, but there's no doubt it would be a major attraction for that show. Plus, thoughts on Bret Hart reportedly signing a lucrative deal with WWE...

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for April 22nd. Roman Reigns still has no announced challenger for WrestleMania Backlash in two weeks, but Drew McIntyre looks likely for the spot based on the events of this show.

It was just two months ago that Solomonster wondered if it would take killing someone to wake up Tammy Sytch after being hit with 11 charges in the state of New Jersey. Sadly, someone has now lost their life as a result of her reckless actions. He talks about exactly what happened, why she isn't behind bars right now and minces no words in making it clear how he feels about the situation.

Solomonster is back with one last review to cap off a busy weekend covering the Raw After WrestleMania show for April 4th. In the past, this show has been an exciting one, but that no longer appears to be the case.

Featuring a surprise finish and Triple H making an appearance to send his last soldier from the Black & Gold era of NXT off on his inevitable voyage to the WWE main roster.
Solomonster opted to review WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for April 1st instead of watching the ROH Supercard of Honor show, and quickly realized that he made a terrible mistake. It's a WrestleMania-edition of Smackdown with this year's Andre the Giant Memorial "Budget Cuts" Battle Royal, and the Intercontinental title being defended because it has developed a sudden allergy to the actual Mania card. On Rampage, it's a hoss fight between Keith Lee and Powerhouse Hobbs.
Solomonster previews both nights of WWE WrestleMania 38 and gives predictions for all of the matches/segments on the show. They're calling this year's WrestleMania the most STUPENDOUS of all time, which is defined as something that is "extremely impressive". This is hardly an "extremely impressive" lineup, but that doesn't mean there aren't things to look forward to and he runs down what those things are.

It's the first in a ridiculously busy week of streaming. 💪🏻
It was the END OF AN ERA this week with the announcement that Triple H, really the last of the semi-active names from the Attitude Era, has officially retired from the ring and will never wrestle again.

Solomonster recaps the finest two hours of AEW Dynamite the company has ever produced, paying tribute to the life and legacy of Jon Huber a/k/a Brodie Lee. Rest easy, big man.
On Saturday, the wrestling world shockingly lost Brodie Lee (formerly Luke Harper) at just 41 years old. More importantly, Jon Huber leaves behind a wife and two children who no longer have their father. From the outpouring of love he has received, it was a life well lived. This week, I try to do his life and career justice, but it's hard to come to grips with how something like this could happen. Tomorrow isn't promised, so make the most of today. Rest well, Jon.
On this episode, we're also covering the Slammy Awards and thoughts on the picks for Superstar of the Year and Match of the Year... WWE leaning on the legends to help ring in the new year... Ricochet's promo from Raw Talk and what needs to happen RIGHT NOW to help salvage his WWE career... my early picks for who should win the men's and women's Royal Rumble matches (and who absolutely should NOT)...
