    🎙️ Jaida Parker Strikes—and the Wrestling World Mourns PAC

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 85 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue examine a shocking development in the Bloodline–946 saga before remembering a remarkable performer taken far too soon. Show Notes • Jaida Parker Runs Down Jacob Fatu Jaida Parker’s attack on Jacob Fatu adds another dangerous layer to the conflict surrounding The Bloodline and the 946. Why did she target Jacob? Is she working alongside the 946, acting on someone else’s orders, or pursuing an agenda of her own? Ryan and Dom discuss what this means for Jacob, how Solo Sikoa might respond, and whether Jaida’s involvement could transform the entire saga. • Remembering Ben Satterley—PAC and Neville The wrestling world was rocked by the sudden and tragic passing of Ben Satterley, known to AEW fans as PAC and to WWE fans as Neville. Ryan and Dom reflect on his extraordinary athleticism, unmistakable intensity, and the impact he made everywhere he competed. His passing is also a painful reminder that the performers we watch every week are human beings—not characters or content. They are sons, partners, parents, friends, and loved ones with families waiting for them to come home. Behind every match is a person. This week, the wrestling world mourns one of its very best. All that and more on Episode 85 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—an episode about a story moving forward and a life remembered far too soon. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue

    🎙️ Who’s Really Behind the 946—and Can Anyone Stop Them?

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 84 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue dive deeper into the mystery surrounding the 946, begin their Money in the Bank speculation, and revisit Conrad Thompson’s continuing issue with Roman Reigns. Show Notes • The 946 Takes a Major Hostage The Black Tank Top Gang raised the stakes in a big way last week by taking a major hostage. With Solo Sikoa also removed from his Money in the Bank qualifier, the 946 is no longer merely lurking backstage—they are actively reshaping WWE’s biggest stories. Ryan and Dom discuss what the group wants, how its actions could affect The Bloodline, and whether Solo is preparing to get his lick back. • Penta Punches His Ticket to Money in the Bank Solo’s removal opened the door for Penta to enter the qualifier—and he made the most of it by earning a place in the Money in the Bank ladder match. Ryan and Dom begin their briefcase predictions. Is Penta a serious contender? Who benefits most from holding the contract? And which winner would create the most compelling championship story? • Who Is Really Leading the 946? Royce Keys may be the face of the operation, but is somebody unexpected pulling the strings? The Wroundtable examines the possibilities behind the 946’s mysterious leadership and asks whether a major reveal could connect the faction even more deeply to The Bloodline saga. • How Does the 946 Become Truly Terrifying? Car attacks, backstage assaults, kidnappings—the group is certainly causing chaos. But being violent and being intimidating are not always the same thing. Ryan and Dom discuss what the 946 needs to become a genuinely frightening force instead of simply another large faction wearing matching black tank tops. • Conrad Thompson vs. Roman Reigns Continues Conrad Thompson’s drama with Roman Reigns isn’t going away, and neither are Ryan and Dom’s questions about it. They revisit Conrad’s criticism and explain why Roman isn’t merely successful—he is the biggest wrestling superstar of the modern era. From his presence and drawing power to the years-long Bloodline saga, Roman has built a résumé that becomes harder to dismiss with every new chapter. All that and more on Episode 84 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where the 946 has a hostage, Penta has an opportunity, and Roman Reigns remains the name everyone wants to discuss. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue

    🎙️ Roman Took a Mexican Destroyer?! And What Happened to Money in the Bank?

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 83 Roman Reigns took a Mexican Destroyer. Money in the Bank somehow stopped feeling dangerous. And Dirty Dom may have just lost more than a championship. Yeah. We've got some things to talk about. This week, Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue dig into a Raw classic that proved sometimes the loser gets the biggest rub, ask how one of WWE's greatest gimmicks lost so much of its magic, and wonder whether Dominik Mysterio's latest loss could be the first crack in his entire faction. And seriously... ROMAN REIGNS TOOK A MEXICAN DESTROYER. 2026 is weird, y'all. • Roman Reigns vs. Penta: Sometimes the Loser Wins Roman Reigns and Penta delivered a classic on Raw—but despite taking the loss, Penta may have walked away with the biggest win of all. Ryan and Dom talk about why wrestling sometimes isn't about who gets their hand raised. Put someone in the ring with a star the size of Roman Reigns, let them push him to his limit, and suddenly the audience sees them differently. Penta looked like he belonged. Sometimes the right loss can make somebody. And also… ROMAN REIGNS TOOK A MEXICAN DESTROYER. We're still processing this. • What Happened to the Prestige of Money in the Bank? Money in the Bank used to feel dangerous. That briefcase wasn't just a prop. It was a constant threat hanging over every champion in WWE. When somebody walked onto Raw or SmackDown carrying it, you knew exactly what it meant. Somewhere along the way, though, something changed. Now the briefcase itself feels almost…empty. Ryan and Dom discuss whether WWE has chipped away at the prestige of one of the greatest concepts the company ever created—and what needs to happen for Money in the Bank to feel important again. • Dirty Dom Lost the AAA Championship. Is His Faction Next? Dominik Mysterio no longer has the AAA championship. But Ryan and Dom are looking beyond the belt. Could losing the title be the first domino in the collapse of Dom's entire faction? The gold helped give Dirty Dom power and credibility while his collection of allies continued to grow around him. Without it, does that dynamic begin to change? Is this simply the beginning of Dominik's next chapter? Or did we just see the first crack in something much bigger? All that and more on Episode 83 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where Roman Reigns is apparently taking Mexican Destroyers now, briefcases aren't what they used to be, and Dirty Dom might want to check whether everybody is still answering the faction group chat. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

    🎙️ The 946 Gang Has Arrived—and Somehow We Still Have Too Many Factions

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 82 The Black Tank Top Gang finally has a name. Will Ryan remember it? Absolutely no promises. Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss the 946 Gang’s impact on The Bloodline, Bronson Reed’s return, Cody Rhodes’ continued dance with the dark side, and a serious reminder about the human beings behind professional wrestling. Show Notes • Royce Keys and the 946 Gang Enter the Bloodline Saga Royce Keys and the 946 Gang open up several intriguing possibilities for The Bloodline. Does their arrival give Solo Sikoa an opportunity to get his lick back? Who becomes their next target? And, perhaps most importantly, who is explaining those torched cars to the rental company? Ryan and Dom attempt to follow the money—and the trail of gasoline. • Bronson Reed Returns Bronson Reed made his presence felt during the Bron Breakker–Oba Femi match, immediately adding another dangerous variable to the equation. Ryan and Dom discuss the latest developments, what Reed’s return means for both competitors, and whether WWE has a larger collision brewing among three of its most destructive powerhouses. • Will Cody Rhodes Ever Fully Embrace the Dark Side? Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton delivered a terrific match at Saturday Night’s Main Event. The finish? Not quite as terrific. Ryan and Dom break down what worked, why the ending fell short, and whether Cody will ever stop flirting with the darkness and finally become the more dangerous version of himself this story appears to demand. • Enough With All the Factions Yes, the 946 Gang creates exciting possibilities. Yes, Ryan and Dom are still crashing out about WWE having entirely too many factions. When everybody has a crew, does anybody stand out? The Wroundtable discusses why factions need distinct motivations and meaningful stories—not just matching outfits and enough people to interfere in every main event. • Remembering the Person Behind the Performer Following the tragic passing of AEW’s The Butcher during a match, Ryan and Dom step away from the storylines to acknowledge the human cost of professional wrestling. The performers who entertain us are people with families, friends, and lives waiting for them beyond the arena. It is a sobering reminder that, no matter how immersive wrestling becomes, everyone deserves to finish their match and make it home safely. All that and more on Episode 82 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where the 946 Gang finally has a name, Cody still has a decision to make, and WWE apparently remains determined to organize its entire roster into group projects. 🦸 Help Dom Become a Super Dad Support Dom and help him receive the recognition he deserves: 👉 Vote for Jacques LaRue as Super Dad 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue

    🎙️ The New Level Changes the Game, Netflix Blurs Reality, and the Lucha Bros Steal the Show

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 81 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss a move that could reshape the wrestling business, the continuing mystery of Royce Keys’ “Black Tank Top Gang,” Netflix’s strange censorship decision, and a Match of the Year candidate with enormous title implications. Show Notes • The New Day Levels Up—and Wrestling Changes Forever Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed heading to AEW is bigger than one promotion signing two decorated performers. It could represent a genuine sea change for professional wrestling. Ryan and Dom discuss what their arrival means for AEW, WWE, and wrestlers searching for alternatives. They also ask the unavoidable question: Why would WWE ask two men who helped make the company a fortune—and built one of wrestling’s most successful acts—to accept such a massive pay cut? WWE’s loss might become a defining gain for the entire industry. • OTM—or Royce Keys’ Black Tank Top Gang That is what Dom called them, and honestly, it may stick. Royce Keys, Lucien Price, and Bronco Nima continue attacking people backstage, but what is the actual endgame? Ryan and Dom try to determine whether these attacks are building toward a larger story or if WWE introduced yet another faction before deciding what it stands for. Black tank tops are not a motive. • Why Did Netflix Blur the Blood? Netflix hosts plenty of movies and shows featuring far more graphic violence, yet the blood covering Jimmy, Jey, and Solo was blurred during Raw. Ryan and Dom explain why the issue isn’t blood for blood’s sake. In the right story, blood adds consequence and makes the conflict feel real. Blurring it only draws attention to the production and breaks the illusion WWE worked so hard to create. If the violence matters to the story, let the audience see the story. • Penta vs. Rey Fenix: A Match of the Year Candidate With a shot at Roman Reigns’ championship waiting in Mexico City, Penta and Rey Fenix delivered a Match of the Year contender. Ryan and Dom break down the chemistry, emotion, and spectacular in-ring action—and discuss whether the winner can carry that momentum into a championship match against the Tribal Chief in two weeks. All that and more on Episode 81 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where The New Level may have changed the business, OTM still owes everyone an explanation, and Netflix apparently discovered its limit. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

    🎙️ Remember When We Were Positive About WWE? Yeah, Neither Do We

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 80 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back with a familiar mix of confusion, frustration, and desperate attempts to make WWE’s latest creative decisions make sense. This week: another faction arrives, the main-event generation keeps getting older, and WWE apparently believes every wrestler needs at least four friends and a matching entrance. Show Notes • Royce Keys, OTM, and Another Unexplained Alliance Royce Keys has joined forces with OTM’s Lucien Price and Bronco Nima—and their first major act was interfering in Raw’s main event. But why? Ryan and Dom discuss what this new faction could become, what its immediate involvement in the main event is supposed to accomplish, and why WWE needs to explain the motivation before asking fans to invest in another group. • WWE’s Main-Event Clock Is Ticking Many of WWE’s biggest stars are now over 40. They may still perform at an elite level, but the company cannot rely on the same names forever. So, who is truly next? Oba Femi? Bron Breakker? Trick Williams? Je’Von Evans? Ryan and Dom examine WWE’s next generation, who looks ready to make the jump, and whether the company is doing enough to turn potential into genuine main-event star power. • Why Does Everybody Need a Faction? Another week, another alliance, stable, crew, family, vision, collective, or loosely associated collection of people standing behind someone during a promo. Ryan and Dom ask what all these factions actually accomplish. Groups should create stories, elevate their members, and give everyone a clear purpose—but when nearly everybody belongs to one, none of them feel particularly special. Maybe WWE doesn’t need another faction. Maybe it needs better reasons for the ones it already has. All that and more on Episode 80 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where the roster is crowded, the factions are multiplying, and optimism has once again been placed on the injured reserve list. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did) https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

    🎙️ Solo the Babyface, Roman the Tragic King, and Chelsea’s Breakout Moment

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 79 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss an increasingly compelling Bloodline saga, two potential babyface breakouts, and another troubling departure that raises questions about what WWE values. Show Notes • Is Solo Sikoa WWE’s Biggest Babyface? That is a sentence we never expected to write—but after the final segment of Monday Night Raw, it might be true. Solo’s evolution from ruthless enforcer to funny, charismatic fan favorite has been remarkable. Ryan and Dom discuss why the transformation is working, how Solo fits into the next chapter of The Bloodline, and whether WWE has created one of its most popular babyfaces. • Roman Reigns and the Ego of a Tragic King Inside every ruthless leader is the ego that eventually brings down the empire. Tony Soprano had it. Michael Corleone had it. Roman Reigns certainly has it. Ryan and Dom examine The Bloodline through the lens of a classic tragedy. Roman has survived betrayal, rebellion, and the collapse of his family—but when will his pride finally become the one opponent he cannot defeat? • Chelsea Green’s Breakout Babyface Moment Chelsea Green’s emotional confrontation with Nick Aldis on SmackDown was more than another good promo. It felt like the beginning of something significant. Ryan and Dom discuss what made the segment so compelling, where Chelsea’s story goes next, and whether WWE has found its next major women’s babyface. • Ilja Dragunov Reportedly Wants Out Reports indicate that Ilja Dragunov requested his WWE release, raising another uncomfortable question about the company’s direction. Where is the space for someone who gets over through intensity, physicality, and exceptional in-ring ability? Ryan and Dom discuss what WWE would lose with Dragunov’s departure—and whether great wrestling alone is still enough to earn a meaningful opportunity. All that and more on Episode 79 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where Solo may be the hero, Chelsea may be the future, and Roman’s greatest enemy may have been staring back at him the entire time. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

    Solo Got Funny, Roman Got Underrated, and Finishers Stopped Finishing

    Episode 78: Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss Solo Sikoa’s unexpected comedic evolution, a puzzling take about Roman Reigns, and why wrestling finishers need to start feeling special again. • Solo Sikoa: Funny, Dangerous, and Finding His Groove Seriously—when did Solo get this funny? His comedic timing has become one of WWE’s most pleasant surprises, but don’t let the laughs distract from one important fact: Solo Sikoa is still a bad, bad man. Ryan and Dom discuss his evolving character, what comes next for The Bloodline, and how Solo could factor into its next chapter. Just don’t give him a warning shot. • Roman Reigns Is Overrated? We Need to Talk About That Podcaster Conrad Thompson recently suggested that Roman Reigns might be overrated—and Ryan and Dom have questions. They explain why the criticism feels shortsighted, examine Roman’s growth as a performer and storyteller, and make the case that, despite years at the top, Roman might somehow still be underrated. • Make Finishing Moves Special Again A finishing move should finish the match. Revolutionary concept, apparently. Ryan and Dom have a fun conversation about endless kickouts, diluted finishers, and why wrestling has lost some of the drama that comes from protecting a wrestler’s biggest move. Not every match needs four finishers, six shocked faces, and a kickout at 2.9999. Sometimes one devastating move should be enough. All that and more on Episode 78 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where Solo brings the comedy, Roman gets his flowers, and finishers are politely asked to start finishing again.
