The boys break down a strong week in pro wrestling. An emotional Rebel Heart Dynamite was stacked this week to help fight ALS, memorialize the Butcher who recently passed and bring a stacked show with Ospreay & Max chugging along, a promo battle between Thekla and Mone, and Steve Borden's and Darby's tag team debut. Over in WWE we cover CM Punk defending his title against Gargano, the SNME fallout with Cody beating Randy and Bron vs Oba being a non-finish and a packed RAW with the return of Bayley and Royce Keys burning a car.WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT PRO WRESTLING?

Visit our website ➡️➡️➡️ https://www.majesticproduction.com/Folks, SmackDown out of Mexico City delivered one of the biggest nights of the year — a brand new Undisputed WWE Champion, a shocking heel turn, and total chaos everywhere. Nobody breaks it down more honestly than I do, believe me.Randy Orton opened the show fresh off a questionable win over Cody Rhodes on Sunday Night's Main Event. Mexico City sang his song, and Orton mocked Cody's "what do you want to talk about" line, saying Cody proved he's a good man whose soul isn't for sale — but Orton is a killer, and he doesn't care if people think otherwise. He called his shot on whoever walked out champion between Punk and Zayn, promising the three most dangerous letters in sports entertainment: R. K. O. Fine promo, folks.Rey Fenix retained the AAA Cruiserweight Championship over Ricky Saints in a GREAT match — Saints kicked out of a handspring cutter at an absurd 2.999999999999, but Fenix finished him clean with the Mexican Muscle Buster. Saints refused Fenix's handshake afterward to loud boos — bad attitude, folks.Nikki Bella beat Paige in a total mess of a match — Paige threw her into the steel steps and took control, but Nikki used the referee as a human shield and stole it with a rope-assisted, stacked pin. Ugly finish, folks, but a win's a win.New U.S. Champion Trick Williams celebrated big in Mexico City, leaned into the "Quinones" soccer chant, booted a ball into the crowd, and credited Lil Yachty for helping him beat Baron Corbin. Corbin jumped Yachty on the ramp, left him for dead, then came back and smashed Trick with the Trick Stick. Not over, folks.Chelsea Green retained the WWE Women's Championship over Nia Jax after Tiffany Stratton took a punch meant for her from Lash Legend. Green dodged the Annihilator, hit a mask-assisted headbutt off the top, and finished with an unorthodox Un-Pretty-Her. Smart, tough champion, folks.The War Raiders retained the AAA Tag Titles over R-Truth & Damian Priest with Ragnarok. Afterward, Priest offered a handshake, a hug, wore his sombrero and all — then CLOTHESLINED his own partner and dropped him with the South of Heaven chokeslam. Total betrayal, folks.And the main event — total chaos. Gargano tried nailing Punk with the actual title belt but ate a GTS instead. Kevin Owens ran in and accidentally clocked Punk. Zayn low-blowed Owens to clear him out, then hit a perfectly placed Helluva Kick. 1-2-3. We have a NEW Undisputed WWE Champion, folks — Sami Zayn, in Mexico City. The building exploded.LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and tell me — did Zayn earn this title, or did he just get lucky?Watch our full podcast here ➡️➡️➡️ anchor.fm/majestic-production

The Wrestling Mayhem Show dives deep into the increasingly interconnected world of professional wrestling as Sorg, Mad Mike, and TruePrinceofPro (T-Pop!) tackle WWE's growing relationship with AAA, AEW and CMLL's continued collaboration in Mexico, the expanding wrestling landscape in Canada, and plenty happening right here in Pittsburgh. The crew starts with WWE's AAA crossover and the tournament determining who will challenge Roman Reigns in Mexico City. Penta, Laredo Kid, Psycho Clown, La Parka, Dragon Lee, Rey Fenix and more enter the conversation as the hosts debate whether AAA wrestlers are being presented strongly enough on WWE television. They also give Corey Graves credit for putting in the work to explain AAA history and wrestlers to WWE's broader audience—even while questioning the remote commentary setup being used for AAA programming. From there, the conversation heads to AEW Grand Slam Mexico and CMLL, including the incredible atmosphere surrounding the crossover shows, Adam Copeland checking another item off his wrestling bucket list, the unique Bandido/Brody King/Hangman Page trio, and the wild format of CMLL's massive Grand Prix match. T-Pop explains how the elimination format works and why Mexican wrestling continues to offer something structurally different from American wrestling television. The expanding wrestling TV universe also gets examined through Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling, MLW, NWA, AEW, ROH and CMLL. How important is immediacy in wrestling? Does a show lose momentum when its television is months behind the live tapings? And why does wrestling remain such attractive television programming compared with scripted productions? On the local front, there is plenty to celebrate. The crew looks back at 2PW Summer Showdown, including the delightfully unexpected blindfolded Lights Out match, Gianni Michael Emricko and Gorgeous Gregory challenging The Troublemakers for the NWA JCP Southeastern Tag Team Championship, and developments surrounding 2PW's championships. There are also updates from 880 Wrestling's Lethal Lottery, Prospect Pro Wrestling, Enjoy Wrestling and the upcoming Sorgstock. And speaking of Sorgstock: Mikey Montgomery vs. Justin Idol in a Video Game Match is officially on the card for August 28. What exactly is a Video Game Match? Apparently, you'll have to be there. Then things get personal with CM Punk and Kevin Owens. The hosts revisit their complicated history, the real-life stories wrestling fans are already resurfacing, and why these two could create weeks of compelling television without needing to throw a single punch. Plus: Chelsea Green's injury, Johnny Gargano stepping away amid a difficult family situation, wrestling trading cards raising money for the Cauliflower Alley Club, Big Man Tater and his microwave helmet, Tatum Paxley arriving on SmackDown, Mickey Knuckles coming to VCW, and Sorg's reflections after finishing a book about Rowdy Roddy Piper. It's another trip through the increasingly strange, global and wonderfully interconnected world of professionalized wrestling. News Stories & Topics Discussed WWE and AAA expand their crossover: A tournament featuring talent from WWE and AAA will determine a challenger for Roman Reigns in Mexico City, with Penta, Laredo Kid, Psycho Clown, La Parka, Dragon Lee, Rey Fenix and others discussed. Is WWE protecting AAA enough? The hosts question why AAA talent is frequently introduced to the Raw and SmackDown audience without being allowed to score important victories. Dominik Mysterio as AAA Mega Champion: The contradiction between Dom holding AAA's top championship and AAA wrestlers sometimes feeling secondary on WWE television becomes a major point of discussion. Corey Graves and AAA commentary: T-Pop and Sorg praise Graves' knowledge and enthusiasm while examining the awkwardness created by remote commentary involving Rey Mysterio and JBL. AEW Grand Slam Mexico: The Arena Mexico atmosphere, Mexican audience participation, Adam Copeland's appearance and AEW leaning into its CMLL relationship all get praise. CMLL Grand Prix explained: T-Pop breaks down the enormous elimination match and its rotating tag structure, including why it feels so different from the usual American multi-person match. AEW/CMLL/ROH relationships: The hosts appreciate AEW's willingness to work across promotions rather than trying to isolate its roster. Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling: The Canadian promotion's weekly television presence is discussed along with Mauro Ranallo's commentary and the opportunity created by changes in WWE's Canadian distribution. MLW and NWA tape delays: Sorg and T-Pop talk about how months of unaired matches can reduce urgency even when the actual wrestling remains enjoyable. The economics of wrestling television: A discussion of live wrestling production leads to appreciation for how much WWE and AEW accomplish every week and why wrestling remains appealing programming for broadcasters. 2PW Summer Showdown: The hosts recap the show, including championship developments, the blindfolded Lights Out match and Some Guy Named John's spectacular elbow drop to absolutely nobody. Gianni Michael Emricko & Gorgeous Gregory: Their NWA JCP Southeastern Tag Team Championship match against The Troublemakers is part of the 2PW recap. 880 Wrestling Lethal Lottery: T-Pop likes the unusual team of Dev Swayze and Tatiana, while Sammy Suntimer's attempts to bond with Marco Narciso become a source of amusement. 2PW Friday Night Frights: The October 23 Halloween event and an announced casket match are previewed. Enjoy Wrestling's anniversary: Lee Moriarty vs. Amazing Red is singled out as a match worth watching. Sorgstock announcement: Mikey Montgomery faces returning Pittsburgh wrestling favorite Justin Idol in a mysterious Video Game Match on August 28. CM Punk vs. Kevin Owens: The hosts love the early verbal confrontation and dig into some of the genuine history that can add another layer to the feud. Chelsea Green injured: Her orbital-bone injury leads to speculation about recovery time and whether it should affect her championship status. Johnny Gargano: The conversation turns serious while discussing Gargano stepping away to focus on his father during his battle with stage-four prostate cancer. Pittsburgh wrestling trading cards: Falcom Digital Imaging's cards and wrestling-related fundraising lead into recognition of efforts benefiting the Cauliflower Alley Club. Big Man Tater: A gigantic Vader-inspired independent wrestler who enters wearing a microwave becomes an immediate Mayhem Show obsession. Tatum Paxley: Her SmackDown arrival has Mad Mike excited about the potential for increasingly spooky developments. MPX “Who Runs the World”: The chat points out the stacked women's wrestling event featuring a wide range of notable talent. Mickey Knuckles headed to VCW: A breaking local wrestling announcement gets an enthusiastic reaction. Roddy Piper: Sorg discusses finishing the Piper book assembled after his death and reflects on the difference between Roddy Piper the character and the person underneath it. “What We Learned” Breakdown T-Pop: Sometimes the best way to introduce someone is simply to unleash them as a monster. He highlights the AAA debut of a WWE/LFG talent who attacks Psycho Clown, tears away part of his mask and chokeslams him onto a chair. The presentation immediately makes the newcomer feel dangerous. Mad Mike: It was apparently a tremendous week for tater-related professional wrestling. First comes Big Man Tater, a giant Vader-inspired wrestler who enters with a microwave on his head. Then there's Tatum Paxley, whose SmackDown arrival has Mike eagerly anticipating where her character could go next. Sorg: Finishing the Rowdy Roddy Piper book helped reconnect dots between moments Sorg remembered as a fan and the life happening behind them. He particularly reflects on Piper becoming so immersed in the wrestling character that separating “Roddy Piper” from the person himself became difficult, while also remembering his wife getting a chance to meet one of her childhood wrestling heroes. From the chat: Mercedes Moné's wrestling anniversary gets recognized, along with excitement over MPX's upcoming women-focused Who Runs the World card.
