Customer Reviews
What of the better more objective wrestling pods
Thoughtful analysis on both AEW and WWE. I personally enjoy the AEW coverage more which is where I think these fellas lean for the most part.
Great podcast, especially the retro wrestling episodes
Let me first say, I don’t watch much current wrestling. But I LOVE anything from the 80’s and 90’s. These guys do a great job recalling and discussing retro wrestling cards. I love the fantasy drafts as well as the “best of” specific PPV’s in the past. If you love pro wrestling, give it a listen!
A Triumph!
FINALLY… A wrestling podcast with a host that won’t defraud a WWE legend and charities alike. FIVE STARS.
