Oh, Canada....

On this weeks episode of the podcast, we review AEW Dynamite Grand Slam! We discuss the master class in technical wrestling that was Bryan Danielson vs. Kenny Omega (and how the showcase they put on could change the main event of Full Gear), what will make Brian Pillman Jr. break out as the next big star and break him out of his fathers shadow, how Malakai Black and Cody Rhodes pulled off the, "double turn", Darby Allin and Sting being the wrong guys to go over in their tag match with FTR, and fantasy booking what happens next with Ruby Soho after her attempt at the AEW Women's World Championship (Hint: It doesn't involve Jamie Hayter!). In our next round of the Boys and Belts Series, Matt and Vince debate what is the greatest Canadian wrestling show of all time. While Matt chooses something more recent, Vince chooses something closer to his heart (and his home). Will Matt come home with his first dub, or is Vince going to clench a big lead?

Matty vs. Vinny: El Mejor Luchador

Trigger Warning: this episode discusses the events of the Plane Ride from Hell episode of, "Dark Side of The Ring", which details sexual assault.

In this episode we talk about the introduction of the annual Owen Hart Cup Tournament, AEW Full Gear's new location and date, the fallout of the Dark Side of the Ring Plane Ride from Hell controversy, Ricky Stark's new role on Rampage (and the shock removal of another), and the new WWE Champ. In celebration of Latino Heritage Month, our first clash in our Boys and Belts series sees Matt and Vince debating on who they think is the greatest Latin wrestler of all time. Listen to who they chose (it shocked even Nick), why they felt their choices were THE choices, what they are truly fighting for, and who gets the first win in the series.

The All Out Fall Out (Bay Bay!)

All Out has come and gone, and we are experiencing the Fall Out! Nick is back, and Scott is returning for the second week in a row as we review the 2021 All Out pay-per-view from Chicago. We discuss the highs (including the match of the year candidate steel cage match, the appearance of Minoru Suzuki, and the three surprise debuts of Ruby Soho, Adam Cole, and Bryan Danielson), the very few lows, the low-key return of the Butcher, and the one sole hiccup by the show. We also talk the stories coming out of All Out, such as the reason for Ruby Soho's name and its connection to her love of the DIY punk scene and band Rancid, Adam Cole and Bryan Danielson's moved-up debuts (and why they were moved up in the first place), and why Kojima was chosen as Moxley's opponent despite the hints going towards Hiroshi Tanahashi.

Zom-Backlash!

This week on the show, we talk some spooky stuff out of season, with the review of WrestleMania Backlash 2021. We discuss the death of New Jack (and its scary timing to Shad Gaspard's passing almost exactly a full year prior), the potential return of fans to WWE in July with Money in The Bank, Zelina Vega/Thea Trinidad potentially returning to WWE, injuries from Braun Strowman, The Miz, Chris Jericho, and Ricky Starks, and rumours of infighting between the EVP's of AEW. We then talk about why Backlash was one of the best WWE pay-per-views of the pandemic era (at least, one of us thinks so), the potential for Charlotte to go supernatural, Matt's strong dislike of Rey Mysterio, the god-awful zombies in the lumberjack match (and how Batista was involved?), the teasing of a Bianca Belair heel turn, and the amazing world title matches to close the show.
