    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.

    Returns, “Retirements,” and the Final Chapter of The Shield

    Episode 77: Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue unpack a jam-packed SummerSlam weekend featuring surprise returns, chaotic championship matches, and a main event worthy of The Shield’s complicated history. Some matches overdelivered. Some careers were resurrected. And one familiar Beast may—or may not—have walked away for good. Night One • The Six-Man Tag Overdelivered The six-man tag didn’t promise much on paper, but it delivered once the bell rang. Ryan and Dom discuss the match’s surprising success—and whether LA Knight’s involvement could lead to a future alongside Roman Reigns and the OTC. • Randy Orton Sticks His Neck Out Randy Orton inserted himself into the championship picture, and the message was impossible to miss. Is Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton officially on deck? Ryan and Dom discuss their history, the emotional stakes, and how dangerous this feud could become once friendship gives way to championship ambition. • Nick Aldis vs. Gunther Delivered The emotion was real, the physicality lived up to expectations, and Nick Aldis proved he still belongs inside the ring. Ryan and Dom break down why the match worked—and whether Aldis is truly finished competing. • Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi Was Everything We Expected The Ruler and The Beast went to war inside Hell in a Cell, delivering the violence and intensity their months-long program promised. Brock may be calling it a career—but we’ve heard that one before. Ryan and Dom discuss what the match did for Oba, what comes next for both men, and whether anyone should believe The Beast is actually finished. Night Two • Kevin Owens Is Back—and Already the No. 1 Contender In perhaps the biggest surprise of the weekend, Kevin Owens returned for his first match in nearly two years—and became the new No. 1 contender for the Undisputed Championship. Ryan and Dom discuss an incredible comeback, the title match now waiting for KO, and whether he can complete the journey by reaching the top once again. • Chelsea Green Survives the Chaos Chelsea Green captured the Women’s Interim Championship in a wild ladder match filled with collisions, close calls, and complete disorder. Ryan and Dom discuss why Chelsea was the right choice, what her interim reign could look like, and what happens when Rhea Ripley returns. • Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: The Final Chapter of The Shield Years of friendship, betrayal, resentment, and unfinished business finally collided. Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns delivered a brutal, emotional Match of the Year contender that felt like the true ending to The Shield’s story. Ryan and Dom break down the callbacks, the emotion, and whether WWE gave this era the conclusion it deserved. All that and more on Episode 77 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—with absolutely no discussion of Danhausen’s Human Monies on a Pole match. We have standards.

    SummerSlam Preview: Dark Turns, Sleeper Matches, and a Shield Reunion?

    Episode 76 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue preview a loaded two-night SummerSlam card—but first, they have one question for ESPN: Why eliminate the one-hour preview show designed to get people excited about the event? Show Notes • ESPN Scraps the SummerSlam Preview Hour A major event should feel like a major event. So why remove an hour dedicated to introducing the matches, explaining the stories, and building excitement? Ryan and Dom discuss why the decision feels shortsighted—especially when WWE and ESPN should be trying to attract new viewers instead of assuming everyone already understands the card. Night One • Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar: Match of the Weekend? The Ruler and The Beast finally collide inside Hell in a Cell. After months of electric segments, the expectations are enormous. Ryan and Dom explain why this brutal showdown should be the match of the weekend—and why the result could define Oba’s future as a main-event star. • Gunther vs. Nick Aldis: Don’t Sleep on This One Nick Aldis has been emotional in recent interviews and training like he has something to prove. Across the ring stands Gunther, a man seemingly designed to punish anyone who believes too strongly in a comeback story. Could this quietly steal Night One? • CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes: Does Cody Finally Embrace the Darkness? Cody’s polished, heroic approach may not be enough against CM Punk. Ryan and Dom ask whether SummerSlam is where Cody finally stops trying to be everyone’s hero, embraces his darker instincts, and becomes the version of himself capable of reclaiming the championship. Night Two • Penta vs. Chad Gable: A Hometown Coronation? Chad Gable challenges Penta for the Intercontinental Championship in front of his hometown crowd. Does Gable finally receive the feel-good championship moment fans have been waiting for—or does Penta spoil the homecoming? Either way, this could be the sleeper match of the entire weekend. • Women’s Interim Championship Ladder Match With Rhea Ripley sidelined, the women’s division needs someone to seize the moment. Could Lash Legend win the ladder match and carry the championship until Rhea returns? Ryan and Dom discuss the field, the opportunity, and whether Lash is ready for a defining run. • Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: Believe in The Shield? WWE keeps showing footage of The Shield, and Ryan and Dom are paying attention. Is it simply history being used to deepen the Seth–Roman rivalry—or could SummerSlam feature a surprise appearance from a certain Lunatic Fringe? All that and more on Episode 76 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where SummerSlam is stacked, the predictions are locked in, and absolutely nothing involving The Shield feels accidental. 📲 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

    When Business Starts Beating Wrestling

    Wrasslin' Wroundtable Episode 75 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue dive into one of the biggest business weeks WWE has had in years—and ask whether the company is becoming more focused on corporate partnerships and celebrity appeal than the fans who got them here. From SiriusXM to TKO, Nick Aldis to Gunther, and the New York Knicks controversy, there's plenty to unpack. Show Notes • WWE Radio Is Coming to SiriusXM... Good Move or More Corporate Control? WWE is launching WWE Radio on SiriusXM, bringing official WWE podcasts, audio versions of weekly TV, and live radio-style coverage of Premium Live Events under one umbrella. Ryan and Dom discuss what this means for wrestling fans. Is this a great way to make WWE content more accessible, or is it another step toward WWE controlling more of the conversation around its own product? • Has WWE Forgotten Its Core Audience? From celebrity appearances to premium ticket prices to merchandise that keeps getting more expensive, Ryan and Dom wonder if WWE is paying more attention to celebrities and corporate partners than the fans who have supported the company for decades. When replica championship belts are pushing $1,200, at what point does the average working fan simply get priced out? The Wroundtable discusses whether TKO's business-first philosophy is creating record revenues... while slowly distancing WWE from the audience that made it successful in the first place. • Nick Aldis vs. Gunther Is Quietly Becoming the Feud of the Summer Outside of Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi, Ryan and Dom believe no rivalry has caught fire quite like Gunther and Nick Aldis. What started as a confrontation between a General Manager and an angry superstar has become one of WWE's most compelling stories. • The Knicks Story Makes No Sense One week, WWE heavily featured the New York Knicks throughout Saturday Night's Main Event from Madison Square Garden, with Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns playing major roles. Now reports say some within WWE weren't happy with how much attention the Knicks received. Ryan and Dom ask... What did you expect? You ran the show in Madison Square Garden just weeks after the Knicks won their first NBA championship in over 50 years. The crossover made perfect sense for that audience. Walking it back afterward feels shortsighted—and another example of TKO overthinking what fans actually enjoy. All that and more on Episode 75 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where the biggest stories aren't always inside the ring. 📲 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

    🎙️ "Sheamus Is Gone. Enzo & Cass Are Back. We Have Questions."

    Wrasslin' Wroundtable Episode 74 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back with a week that left them asking a familiar question: What exactly is WWE thinking? One beloved veteran is officially gone, some familiar faces are suddenly back, and Dom somehow found a way to connect Cody Rhodes, The Rock... and Danhausen. Yes, really. Show Notes • Sheamus Is Officially Gone... and We Don't Get It After nearly 20 years with WWE, Sheamus is officially gone, bringing an end to one of the most decorated careers of the modern era. His departure followed the expiration of his contract after the sides were unable to reach a new agreement. Ryan and Dom look back on everything The Celtic Warrior accomplished—and ask the question they can't shake: Why let him walk? Sheamus could still go in the ring. He still connected with crowds. And it felt like he had unfinished business, especially with the Intercontinental Championship—the one title that always eluded him. Ryan and Dom discuss why WWE may have let one of its most reliable stars leave with plenty left in the tank. • Baron Corbin Is Back... But Why? Baron Corbin has returned to WWE, and Ryan and Dom aren't convinced they understand the timing. Where does Corbin fit on today's roster? Is there a real plan here, or is this simply another familiar face returning without a clear direction? • Enzo & Big Cass: Bada Boom... But Why? Bada boom. Most confusing move in the room. Enzo Amore and Big Cass are reportedly on their way back to WWE, and Ryan and Dom have one simple question: Why? The duo was lightning in a bottle a decade ago, but this isn't 2015 anymore. Does nostalgia alone justify bringing them back, or is WWE looking backward instead of building its future? • Cody Rhodes, The Rock... and Danhausen? This might be Dom's wildest theory yet. What if Danhausen becomes the unlikely bridge between Cody Rhodes and The Rock? Ryan and Dom connect the dots on a storyline that sounds ridiculous on paper... until you hear Dom explain it. • Saturday Night's Main Event Preview Before the next chapter begins, WWE has one more stop. Ryan and Dom preview Saturday Night's Main Event, break down the biggest matches, discuss what needs to happen, and make their predictions heading into another pivotal weekend. All that and more on Episode 74 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where legends leave, old favorites return, and somehow Danhausen might end up in the biggest storyline in WWE. 📲 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

    🎙️ "CM Punk Is Champion... Now What?"

    Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue react to yet another major title change, a fascinating new wrinkle in the Roman Reigns/Seth Rollins story, and a growing concern that has nothing to do with what happens inside the ring. The road to SummerSlam just took another unexpected turn. Show Notes • CM Punk Is the New Undisputed Champion We have another new champion—and this time, it's CM Punk. Ryan and Dom break down what Punk's victory means for the Undisputed Championship and where WWE goes from here. What becomes of Cody Rhodes after losing the title? Where does Sami Zayn fit into the championship picture? And perhaps the biggest question of all: Does Sami Zayn finally need to embrace the dark side? The Wroundtable makes the case that the next evolution of Sami's character may be his most compelling yet. • Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and a New Role for Seth? After Seth declared that he "owned Roman," Dom floated a fascinating theory. What if this rivalry isn't just about settling old scores? What if it's setting Seth up for an entirely different role moving forward? Ryan and Dom connect the dots and discuss how one line may have quietly changed the direction of one of WWE's biggest stars. • WWE, TKO, and Pricing Out the Fans This week's biggest conversation isn't about a match. It's about the fans. Ryan and Dom discuss how WWE's corporate evolution under TKO has made the product increasingly inaccessible to everyday working people. From premium live event pricing to merchandise, the costs continue to climb—including replica championship belts now selling for more than $1,200. At what point does WWE stop serving the fans who built the company? The Wroundtable tackles one of the biggest off-screen stories in wrestling today. All that and more on Episode 73 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where championships change, stories evolve, and sometimes the biggest issue isn't what happens between the ropes. 📲 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

    🎙️ "King Oba, Champion Sami, and a SummerSlam Problem"

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 72 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue react to one of the biggest title changes of the year, a King of the Ring victory that raises as many questions as it answers, and a rivalry that suddenly feels a little too real. The road to SummerSlam just got a whole lot more interesting. Show Notes • Sami Zayn Is Champion… Now What? We have a new champion, and it's Sami Zayn. Ryan and Dom break down what the title change means for WWE moving forward. Is Sami a true long-term champion? Or is this a transitional reign designed to get the title from Point A to Point B? The Wroundtable discusses where Sami fits at the top of the card and who should be next in line. • Gunther's Crash-Out… Is Nick Aldis About to Lace Up the Boots? Gunther completely lost it on Nick Aldis, and it may have consequences beyond a fine or suspension. Ryan and Dom discuss whether this could finally be the moment Aldis steps back into the ring. Is WWE setting up one more run for the SmackDown General Manager, or is this simply a way to raise the stakes heading into SummerSlam? • King Oba Femi: The Right King… But the Wrong Prize? Oba Femi wears the crown, and Ryan and Dom agree WWE got the winner right. But here's the question: If Oba Femi is already confirmed to face Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam, what exactly is the point of giving the King of the Ring winner a guaranteed championship match? Does the stipulation actually raise the stakes... or does it unintentionally telegraph that Oba won't be cashing in his title opportunity anytime soon? The Wroundtable debates whether WWE has backed itself into a creative corner—or whether there's a twist coming that nobody sees. • Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: This Feels Different Some rivalries feel scripted. This one doesn't. Ryan and Dom talk about why the tension between Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns feels unusually authentic—and whether WWE is quietly planting the seeds for one of the most emotional reunions in modern wrestling history. Could the original Shield ride together one last time? All that and more on Episode 72 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where championships have changed, kings have been crowned, and SummerSlam is shaping up to be something special. 📲 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

    🎙️ What Makes Sense? Heyman Speaks, Night of Champions, and the King & Queen Finals

    Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 71 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue return to wrestling's favorite question: What makes sense? This week, it's not just about booking decisions. It's about perspective. Paul Heyman pulled back the curtain in a rare interview, Night of Champions is here, and the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments have some fascinating implications. Show Notes • Paul Heyman Opens the Curtain Paul Heyman doesn't do many shoot interviews, which is exactly why his conversation with Chris Van Vliet resonated throughout the IWC. Ryan and Dom discuss Heyman's incredible insight into what he saw in Roman Reigns' Tribal Chief character long before everyone else did, how he unexpectedly became Brock Lesnar's advocate, and why hearing one of wrestling's greatest creative minds explain his process is a masterclass in storytelling. • Night of Champions Preview One of WWE's biggest international events has arrived. Ryan and Dom break down the card, the matches they're most looking forward to, and the stories that could shape the road to SummerSlam. • Queen of the Ring: Wait... Isn't Liv Already a Champion? Here's the question neither Ryan nor Dom can shake: Why is Liv Morgan, an active champion, competing for the opportunity to challenge for another championship at SummerSlam? The Wroundtable examines the logic behind the booking, whether it helps the tournament, and if WWE missed an opportunity to elevate someone chasing their first major title. • Oba Femi vs. Jey Uso: Who Needs the Crown More? It's power versus momentum. Does Oba Femi take the next step toward becoming WWE's next dominant force? Or is this finally the moment Jey Uso completes his singles journey by becoming King of the Ring? Ryan and Dom debate not just who will win — but who should. All that and more on Episode 71 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable — where sometimes the biggest question in wrestling isn't "who wins?" It's "why?" 📲 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
