The world of professional rasslin' has been one helluva ride over the last year, especially if you've been following the behind-the-curtain stuff over at WWE. Now that the ink has dried on the merger of WWE with UFC to form TKO (because ya can't have too many three letter abbreviations can ya?), it appears that the rollercoaster of "Who's In Charge Around Here?!" is finally over with Triple H officially having complete creative control over WWE without the interference of Vince McMahon. What does it all mean? We break it down.Also, we get yet another update on The Man They Call Tim's fake football team, some thoughts on Baylan Skoll from Ahsoka, a theory of how Thrawn got his night troopers, and remembering the acting icon that is Burt Young in this episode's Week In Geek!

One of the rarest tricks to pull in professional wrestling is the double turn - somehow making the good guy into the bad guy and the bad guy into the good guy. That's tough enough, but doing it in a single match? The most successful execution of this that we can think about is "Stone Cold" Steve Austin versus Bret "The Hitman" Hart from Wrestlemania 13... and we're gonna watch it all and drop some commentary as well!
Also, we dive deep into the firing of CM Punk by AEW in this episode's The Week In Geek!
