Part 2 of today's show covers the biggest NHL trade of the season, Blue Jays free agency continues, and all the wrestling fallout from John Cena's last match.Intro (0:00) Quinn Hughes Trade to Minnesota (0:18): You never win trades like this when you're Vancouver, BUT the Canucks actually did really well here. What are the next moves for Vancouver? This makes Minnesota a serious threat in the Central Division - what else do they need to add? Breaking down the trade from every angle and what it means for both franchises.Blue Jays Sign Tyler Rogers (6:58): Really like this move for Toronto. Rogers brings an alternate arm angle to the bullpen that adds depth and versatility. Where does the Blue Jays bullpen stand now? They continue to be the most aggressive team in free agency, building a complete roster for a championship run.John Cena's Last Match - The Perfect Ending (14:27): The controversial finish was actually PERFECT. This was a crowd making up for lost time, giving Cena the cheers he deserved for so long, in place of the boos that were more meant for Vince McMahon - the man behind the curtain who kept giving fans anything but what they wanted.Cena received "YOU STILL GOT IT" chants from people who, for YEARS, didn't want to admit he ever had it in the first place. And it finished the way it was always going to - not with one last John Cena 1-2-3, but with a WIN for Cena's VISION of how he wanted to go out: leaving the wrestling world better than he found it.He did what he always promised - give us everything he had. At this point, all he had left to give was one last big match and the rub to a top guy who can carry it forward. They just didn't anticipate that crowds who for years never wanted him to win, didn't want him to lose.Perfect ending. Just wish there were more Cena moments than just wrestlers saying thanks. NXT wrestlers shined on the big stage.Monday Night RAW Recap: Gunther opening the show was EXCELLENT - if there was ANY doubt he was the right guy for this spot, that doubt is gone. Austin Theory revealed as the masked man - played it well but follow-up is crucial because no one's inspired yet. Rest of the show felt a touch dull. Usos vs New Day was neat but Grayson Waller's involvement doesn't make sense. Maxxine Dupri vs Ivy Nile was solid, Maxxine putting in work, but felt rushed after Natalya storyline. Nikki Cross run-in on Raquel/Vaquer was lame - Stephanie Vaquer needs these wins right now.AEW Dynamite Preview: Three things to watch tonight including the Swerve/Hangman/Samoa Joe contract signing.This is Part 2 of today's episode. Part 1 covered fantasy football waiver wire, Tua benching, and Joe Burrow trade scenarios.

Shot of Nostalgia: The SmackDown Six Era continues with your host Acefield Retro as we revisit the stretch where SmackDown quietly became the best wrestling show in the world. Episode 4: The Golden Age of Tag Team Wrestling covers November 2002 through January 2003, the period when Paul Heyman's system reached perfect balance. Every story connected, every match mattered, and SmackDown had evolved into a complete wrestling ecosystem that thrived on craft, chemistry, and trust. It begins on the November 7 episode of SmackDown when Edge and Rey Mysterio finally defeated Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit in a two out of three falls match for the WWE Tag Team Titles. The match ran twenty four minutes and delivered a level of teamwork and precision that elevated the entire division. Just ten days later at Survivor Series 2002, Los Guerreros seized the spotlight by outsmarting both teams in one of the most celebrated triple threat tag matches of the decade. Their victory represented everything that made this era special. Eddie and Chavo's mix of wit, charisma, and timing made them the emotional center of SmackDown. This week's episode includes a special watch along of that match as we relive every moment of how they captured gold and redefined tag team storytelling. From there the show only gained momentum. On December 5, Angle, Benoit, Edge, and Eddie Guerrero met in a fatal four way elimination match that tied every rivalry together and showed how deeply Heyman's creative system was working. By the end of December, Team Angle had arrived. Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin debuted on December 26 as Kurt Angle's chosen proteges, a pair of amateur wrestling standouts who brought a new layer of technical excellence to the brand. That arrival carried the SmackDown philosophy into the next year. The run reached its peak in January when Benoit and Edge faced Team Angle and Kurt, leading directly into the Royal Rumble 2003 where Kurt Angle defended the WWE Championship against Chris Benoit in a match that remains one of the most respected in company history. We also look at the wider picture through the Wrestling Observer newsletters from late 2002 that captured just how different SmackDown's approach was compared to Raw. While Raw was relying on shock segments that turned viewers away, SmackDown was earning loyalty through clarity and consistency. The Observer also documented the behind the scenes chaos surrounding Hulk Hogan's negotiations with Vince McMahon. Hogan had been planned to return for Survivor Series against Brock Lesnar but refused to lose to him again. The standoff left Lesnar without his expected opponent and forced creative to shift focus, which in turn gave SmackDown's tag division more room to shine. It was the kind of unintended consequence that helped the blue brand rise even higher. Fans made their preference clear. Ratings climbed, crowd reactions intensified, and SmackDown became the heartbeat of WWE's weekly television. By early 2003, SmackDown was not competing with Raw anymore. It had become its own force. Every match carried meaning, every performer felt essential, and every story flowed naturally. This was the golden age of tag team wrestling, a time when structure, emotion, and athletic storytelling defined an entire generation of WWE television.

From the grind of early wrestling days to the creation of one of the most iconic characters in sports entertainment, this episode is pure gold for wrestling fans and comedy lovers alike. The Undertaker opens up about his unlikely path from college basketball to the squared circle, the wild meeting with Vince McMahon that birthed his legendary persona, and what it was like to rise through an era dominated by Hulk Hogan and other larger-than-life characters. He and Tom trade road-war stories, comparing the life of a traveling comedian to that of a pro wrestler — the endless travel, the brutal schedule, and the weird adjustment of coming home after months on tour. Mark also reveals behind-the-scenes secrets of WrestleMania, his all-time favorite match with Shawn Michaels, and the brutal injuries (including being set on fire… twice) that came with three decades in the ring. Plus, he shares how he stayed committed to “living the character,” why he always wore black in public, and how he evolved The Undertaker over time to keep the mystique alive. They also discuss wrestling psychology, the art of storytelling in the ring, and the freakish athleticism of stars like Brock Lesnar, Kane, and Roman Reigns. From hilarious stories about stepping on teammates during basketball drills to heartfelt reflections on the fans who grew up with him, The Deadman proves he's every bit as thoughtful as he is intimidating. 2 Bears, 1 Cave Ep. 312 https://tomsegura.com/tour https://www.bertbertbert.com/tour https://store.ymhstudios.com Chapters 00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:09 - Wrestlemania 00:06:36 - I Wanna Be A Wrestler 00:17:17 - The Birth Of The Undertaker 00:31:26 - Injuries & Finding New Roles 00:42:40 - Big Strong Guys 00:47:35 - Shawn Michaels 00:56:17 - Novices 00:59:54 - Stupid Purchases 01:03:25 - Mike Tyson 01:06:57 - Wrap Up Learn more about your ad choices.
