    Money in the Bank Preview, Ospreay's Clockwork Carnage Match | Takedown

    Garrett Gonzales and Paul Fontaine kick off this episode of Takedown with a full preview of WWE Money in the Bank, live Saturday from New Orleans. Roman Reigns defends the World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight, Stephanie Vaquer puts the Women's World Championship on the line against Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan, and Oba Femi and Bronson Reed finally settle their grudge. The guys also break down both ladder matches: Bron Breakker, Je'Von Evans, Trick Williams, Penta, CM Punk and Kevin Owens on the men's side, and Sol Ruca, Lola Vice, Jacy Jayne, Roxanne Perez, Lash Legend and Tiffany Stratton on the women's side. Then it's AEW's first-ever Clockwork Carnage match, coming to WrestleDream on October 17 with the AEW World Championship on the line. Garrett and Paul explain how Will Ospreay's new format works, from the timed entrances to the 15-minute scoring period where the most falls wins, and who has the best shot at leaving as champion. The guys also run through NJPW King of Pro-Wrestling on October 12 at Ryogoku Kokugikan, headlined by Yota Tsuji defending the IWGP Heavyweight Championship against G1 Climax winner Ryohei Oiwa. They look back at Ospreay finally beating Kazuchika Okada for a championship at AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam France, and close by asking whether WWE can really travel to Saudi Arabia for Crown Jewel on November 7 under a U.S. travel advisory.

    The Princess Bride (1987): André the Giant, Fezzik & the Full Fight Game Breakdown | Popcorn & Piledrivers

    The Princess Bride is one of the most quotable films ever made — and buried inside it is one of the great Fight Game stories: André the Giant, wrestling's Eighth Wonder of the World, playing Fezzik in what he'd call his favorite role of his career. On this episode of Popcorn & Piledrivers, we go deep on André's full life — his childhood acromegaly diagnosis, Samuel Beckett driving him to school in France, the WrestleMania III turn and "bodyslam heard around the world" against Hulk Hogan, his brief world title reign, and his death in 1993 at just 46. We also cover William Goldman's decades-long fight to get his own "unfilmable" novel made (including Arnold Schwarzenegger almost playing Fezzik a decade earlier), Rob Reiner building a real on-set family with the cast, Cary Elwes and Mandy Patinkin training for weeks with Star Wars' own swordmasters, what happened to the rest of the cast, how the book's ending differs from the film's, and which current wrestling stars could ever play Fezzik.

    Remembering Pac: His Career & Our Favorite Moments | Takedown

    This episode of Takedown is almost entirely given over to Pac. Paul Fontaine runs down his top five Pac moments across a career that spanned Dragon Gate, WWE, and AEW, while Garrett Gonzales shares a story about seeing Pac live in person just recently. The guys also go back to the very beginning of their own fandom, remembering the first time they each watched him wrestle. Along the way, Garrett and Paul work through his overall career — the high-flying independent scene run, his Adrian Neville/Neville years and Cruiserweight Championship reigns in WWE, and the AEW run that made him a two-time double champion and a fixture of Death Triangle and later the Death Riders — celebrating what made him one of the most respected in-ring workers of his generation.

    Garrett Gonzales and Jeremy Finestone break down every match from AEW All Out 2026, headlined by Will Ospreay retaining the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley. Ospreay finally beat Mox, but a main event full of Death Riders, United Empire and Brawling Birds run-ins had its critics, and Garrett explains the two things that took him out of it. The guys also discuss Steven Borden's scary injury after a midair collision with Kevin Knight ended his tag match with Darby Allin, including the latest update on his condition. They talk about the brutal three-way ladder match that saw the Young Bucks become the first four-time AEW World Tag Team Champions over Copeland and Christian Cage and FTR, and how much all six men put their bodies through. Plus: Dani Luna's "surprise" debut against TBS Champion Persephone, Thekla earning a WrestleDream shot at Mercedes Moné, Okada vs. Ciampa, the Chicago Street Fight, the Trios Title match, Andrade vs. PAC and where AEW's storylines are focused coming out of All Out.
