AJ has joined us in studio (and is trying to kill Glenn!). There's much to talk about on this week's edition of Jobbing Out. In Segment 1, Ben Penrod-the man behind DC's AwesomeCon event joins us to be our guest picker for Sunday's Fastlane PPV. Will we still have AJ Styles/Shinsuke Nakamura when this is all said and done? What else might happen? And will someone else have to perform at ManiaCrawl? In Segment 2 (41:16), the guys dive into the week that was on RAW. Should Ronda Rousey be talking at all? Should she be smiling? Also-what to make of Paul Heyman's promo? And are they FINALLY going somewhere with Nia Jax? Oh and who will face The Bar at WrestleMania? In Segment 3 (1:03:51), we welcome in former WWE star Chris Nowinski for a fascinating chat. Dr. Nowinski is very much at the center of the brain health issue-so we talk about a recent bill in Maryland (that was killed) that would have prevented kids under 14 from tackling in football, plus we discuss his relationship with the WWE and whether they're taking brain health seriously enough and we discuss the future of Daniel Bryan-who wants to wrestle but isn't being allowed to. After that, the guys go over a few more topics-the newly announced location for "All In" and whether CM Punk will be a factor, the "World's Greatest Royal Rumble" and a new belt for NXT.

Our latest mini-sode covers the fun and sometimes headache-inducing world of fan and comic book conventions, and we brought in an expert on the topic: Founder and COO of Awesome Con, Ben Penrod! We're discussing everything from the changing state of comic sales at conventions to security, crowd issues and keeping Doctor Who actors safe in the bathroom! Plus, Conor McGregor's camp breaks an unwritten rule and costs him a sparring partner, and Tim Tebow (nearly) ended up back in the NFL. T2J: When someone says you're "The Taco," it's generally not a good thing!
