    Episode 78: AEW All In Recap, Nut Up Labor Day & SNME Predictions | Schoolboy Rollup | Sept 3, 2026

    Episode Summary In this episode, the panel breaks down AEW’s recent momentum after All In and the creative direction around stars like Swerve Strickland, Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Darby Allin, and the New Day’s crossover from WWE into AEW-adjacent conversation. The group debates whether AEW is doing better storytelling and in-ring wrestling than WWE right now, while also comparing the two companies’ approaches to character turns, match structure, entrance presentation, and roster depth. A major theme is how AEW has been able to deliver big pay-per-view moments while keeping its product focused on wrestling first. The conversation highlights standout entrances, especially Ospreay’s “Teenage Wasteland” entrance, and the emotional payoff of his championship win. The panel also talks about how AEW uses its large roster and frequent shows, and whether that helps or hurts long-term stories.On the WWE side, the discussion shifts to how current booking compares, especially around celebrity involvement, character pushes, and match outcomes. The hosts weigh in on wrestlers like Penta, Rey Fenix, Dragon Lee, Braun Breaker, Oba Femi, Randy Orton, and Cody Rhodes, predicting outcomes and debating who is being protected or overexposed. The episode also gets sidetracked in the best way possible with jokes about Labor Day, holiday rankings, blurry webcams, and running bits like “nut up” and “new level.” That blend of wrestling analysis and casual comedy gives the episode its personality and keeps the pacing lively from start to finish.

    Episode 77: $60 Eggplant Parm, Fantasy Football, AEW All In, WWE, GTA6 | Schoolboy Rollup | 8/26/26

    A $60 eggplant parm order turns into a full-on chaos theory episode, and somehow that is only the beginning. Between fantasy football quarterback hoarding, AEW All In predictions, WWE storyline debates, and an unhinged GTA 6 spoiler panic, this one moves fast and gets funnier the longer it goes. Nick kicks things off with a sleepy Hershey Park recap and the legendary eggplant parm order that somehow cost more than a steak dinner. Greg counters with fantasy football draft strategy, an all-ladies league, and the bold philosophy of taking three mediocre quarterbacks instead of one star. Rob keeps the whole thing moving with the perfect mix of confusion, wrestling takes, and side quests into food, pop culture, and pure nonsense. You'll discover: Why an 8-team fantasy football league can still feel absurdly overstuffedThe auction draft strategy behind loading up on Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, and Malik NabersWhy Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay at AEW All In feels like a must-win main eventThe case for Kyle Fletcher as a future breakout starWhy the latest WWE Bloodline and LA Knight threads feel messier than they shouldHow a two-year-old birthday party somehow leads back to steak, pizza, and leftover slice economicsThe conversation keeps pivoting from wrestling booking to restaurant rankings to the best way to survive a pizza surplus, but that is exactly the charm.
