Customer Reviews
Perfect
I love this podcast and the hosts a lot. There are many ways to watch and enjoy wrestling, and I feel like their specific ways match mine perfectly. They get it. They are delightful, and they are nice. They get the humor, they criticize what I also feel needs criticism. I’m sort of a new fan to WWE, people have tried to get me to watch it my entire life and I resisted but I get it now and I’m obsessed.
Tights and Fights just makes it even better and amplified my love and obsession. I have only listened to about 10 episodes so far, but I’ll be listening every single week for as long as the podcast exists. It’s just great. Thanks!
I had heard Hal Lublin on some PFT podcasts over the years and listened because I’d heard of him, but the first three eps I heard he wasn’t even in it and I was already this hooked to it because of the other phenomenal hosts. I agree with Lindsay so consistently.
Required for WWE Fans
I’ve been a WWE fan since it was called WWF. My cousins and I used to why WWF ice cream bars from the corner store as kids. I think the hosts are funny and knowledgeable. It’s just a fun show.
Not as fun as it used to be
When I first started listening the show truly did have both the “sincerity and hilarity” it proclaims to have. Unfortunately over the past year or so it has devolved into yet another wrestling podcast hosted by people who seem to not enjoy wrestling. I’m not feeling the negative tone of the show lately as it’s the opposite of what got me listening in the first place. I’m going to unsubscribe for a few months and check back in 2021. Hoping in the meantime they find the fun in wrestling again.
