Shake Them Ropes is a pro wrestling podcast hosted by Jeff Hawkins and Chris Novembrino. Each week, we dive into the top stories in professional wrestling and opine on whatever's on our mind from the week in professional wrestling television (and sometimes even Jeff's beloved 80s wrestling) with a light hearted take on the performance aspects of the product.

Shake Them Ropes. Tony Time
In the news: Vince wants arbitration, WWE releases some talent and Broken Matt Hardy is your new TNA Champ. Fantastic. It gets weirder on the LAZY RIVER OF WRESTLING CRITICISM as AEW has perhaps their best overall ppv and starts Dynamite not with their new historic champ but...Trent Beretta? The Elite then stage a coup and topple the Khan regime. In WWE, it was treading water before the reboot.

Wonderful
This is the only podcast I keep up with every week. The dynamic between Rob and Jeff is hilarious. Most wrestling podcasts have become overwhelming negative but STR has a good balance. I usually save it for a commute and it does not disappoint.
Edited in 2021: it’s ok. They have bad takes though. I kid.
hopelessly delusional

Dr. Nov to the rescue!
Jeff, thank you for the phenomenal upgrade in co-hosts! You two are the only reasons to waste a second on RAW.
