Episode 216 of Wrestling Tonight begins with WWE reportedly discussing the developing situation in Saudi Arabia after the United States State Department updated its Level 3 travel advisory and again advised Americans to reconsider travel. Crown Jewel remains scheduled for November 7 in Riyadh, but with regional tensions rising, we look at WWE's history in Saudi Arabia and why the company will likely move forward unless circumstances force a change. WWE x AAA Worlds Collide also appears headed for a live YouTube broadcast after days of uncertainty. The current plan has the show beginning at 8 p.m. ET from the Allstate Arena, one hour after AEW All Out begins, with more than 11,000 tickets already distributed. The WWE-TNA partnership appears to be cooling off heading into Bound for Glory, while Sami Zayn's second WWE Championship reign is beginning to take shape with Kevin Owens, CM Punk, Gunther, Finn Balor, Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton all positioned around the title picture. CMLL's 93rd Anniversary show saw Persephone retain the CMLL World Women's Championship, while Místico defeated longtime rival Averno in a mask vs. hair match and remained undefeated in Lucha de Apuestas competition.

A single fan question can turn into a truth bomb when Teddy Long is in the chair. We kick things off with a heated topic that never dies in wrestling: who “has to” help set up the ring, who gets to say no, and why old-school expectations don't always fit modern locker rooms. Using the AJ Styles' son conversation as a jumping-off point, we talk about the difference between learning the ropes on small indies and pointless pressure once you're already at a higher level. From there we shift into WWE momentum, new talent, and how the right push can create a monster. We dig into why Teddy is baffled by how little gets done with Gunther at times, and why Oba Femi has the size, intensity, and believability to be a true next-big-thing if the people in charge commit to the right stories. We also address CM Punk and the “controversy” label, separating what's actually reported from the social media rumor machine that feeds on clicks. Then Teddy gets personal about character work and what made the SmackDown GM era land: the suits, the confidence, and why being yourself beats playing a fake role. He shares a Vince McMahon meeting moment that shows how quick thinking can change a segment, and we don't dodge the hard stuff either, including scary injuries like the Droz incident and the brutal reality of learning to protect yourself in wrestling. We close with JCW updates, a wild GCW run-in clip, and how to support what we're building. Subscribe, share this with a wrestling friend, and leave a review if you want more straight talk from the road.

Assistant Coach Scott Hyland retuned to the Bench to team with Dave and take on Bohmbach and Mason in this Markkus-hosted game. Early on, this was dubbed the "Fraud Episode" and it was declared that "You're going to jail!" We learned that Keegan Michael Key was 2026 Big Ten Freshman of the Year, that AJ Styles sounds like a wrestler, that Dave Wortz is not on this list, and that nobody wanted to do a Jamaican accent. #ivorycoast #fraud #jail #keeganmichaelkey #bigten #ajstyles #jamaica #jonqueljones https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

WWE NXT Double Champion Myles Borne joins Battle ahead of NXT Heatwave tonight to talk about pulling double duty, training with AJ Styles, and the pressure that comes with carrying two championships. He also opens up about the Randy Orton comparisons, his journey from NXT Level Up to becoming one of NXT’s fastest-rising stars, and why he wants fans to focus on what he can do in the ring—not feel sorry for him because he’s deaf. Plus, Myles shares the “Why Not Me?” mentality that continues to drive his WWE career. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the Tapped Out Podcast, Nick and Myron break down another packed week in pro wrestling, including WWE's streaming future, NXT developmental questions, AEW's return to Wembley, and a loaded stretch of Georgia indy wrestling.The guys start with ESPN Unlimited increasing its subscription price from $29.99 to $31.99 per month beginning September 17. Some fans are blaming WWE because ESPN Unlimited will be the U.S. home for WWE PLEs, but is that fair? Or is this really part of a larger streaming industry price trend?Nick and Myron discuss the difference between WWE taking major rights fees and ESPN setting the monthly price for its own app.They also address the report that claimed ESPN was already unhappy with the WWE deal — and ESPN quickly shooting that down as false.Then the conversation shifts to NXT's women's division and why so many female athletes seem to be picking up pro wrestling faster than the men. Jordynne Grace's research, athletic backgrounds like gymnastics, cheerleading, and amateur wrestling, and comments from names like Kevin Owens and AJ Styles all factor into the discussion.Are NXT's women developing faster because of gender, recruiting, coaching habits, or transferable athletic skills?The guys also discuss AEW All In returning to Wembley Stadium, with Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay headlining. Ticket numbers are down from AEW's historic 2023 Wembley debut, but when did drawing 40,000-plus fans to a stadium become something people call a failure?Nick and Myron look at whether AEW's international strategy may be one of its biggest long-term growth opportunities.This week's Georgia wrestling recap includes quick reactions and story takeaways from:1FW – Marietta, GAA busy night featuring Angelica Risk, Vary Morales, Parker Li, The SupaStarz, and more.Southern Fried Championship Wrestling – Loganville, GAA fundraiser-driven night that became much bigger than wrestling and created one of the most emotional moments of the weekend.Blood & Honey Series – Atlanta, GAMatt Griffin continues to survive Atlanta's deathmatch world, while major changes hit the Blood & Honey power structure.Total Aggression Wrestling – Eastanollee, GAChampionship issues, rivalries, and a major return all helped set the table for what comes next.1FW TV Taping – McDonough, GAA packed TV taping featuring title fallout, new directions, surprise confrontations, and chaos in the main event scene.Nick and Myron also look ahead to another strong weekend across Georgia.Friday, August 281FW – Commerce, GASix-man action, Satnam Singh, Angelica Risk defending gold, and more.SCA – Royston, GAMonster's Ball action, title matches, tag team stakes, and several big stories moving forward.Saturday, August 29Coastal Empire Wrestling – Savannah, GATag title action, Bryce Cannon, Dax Anthony, Doc Gallows, Christian Taylor, Gold or Gone, and more.GCW – Buckhead, GAA Career vs. Hair Bunkhouse Match with Terry Lawler as special referee.Sunday, August 30ROAR – Marietta, GAKiera Hogan vs. Ruthie Jay and Robyn Renegade vs. Bobbi Thunder.United Pro Entertainment – Kingsland, GABryce Cannon defends the United Pro Title against Jon Davis, plus Hunter James, Hakeem Young, Bryce Maddox, JT Paradox, Christian Taylor, and more.

Turnbuckle Tavern is powered by G FUEL and Official Dick Lazer. Use code TAVERN for 20% off at GFUEL.com and DickLazers.com. Episode 205 of Wrestling Tonight begins in Japan, where Ryohei Oiwa defeated Yuya Uemura in a 35-minute final to win G1 Climax 36 and cap off a tournament that increasingly felt like NJPW finally committing to its new generation. We break down Oiwa's path from qualifying for the tournament to becoming G1 champion, the significance of a final four featuring Oiwa, Uemura, Yota Tsuji and Callum Newman, and Oiwa's decision to follow TMDK mentor Zack Sabre Jr. by taking his IWGP Heavyweight Championship opportunity at King of Pro Wrestling in October rather than waiting for Wrestle Kingdom. Before then, Yota Tsuji must defend against Hirooki Goto at Destruction in Kobe, while Jeff Cobb is suddenly back in NJPW and aligned with Gedo's Unbound Corp after confronting former United Empire stablemate Callum Newman. The G1 weekend also produced one of the strangest moments of the year when an AI recreation of the late Antonio Inoki appeared at Ryogoku, addressed Hiroshi Tanahashi and led the crowd through the traditional "1, 2, 3, dah!" We discuss the uncomfortable contrast of NJPW spending the weekend successfully pushing Oiwa, Uemura, Tsuji and Newman as its future while simultaneously using artificial intelligence to recreate its deceased founder, as well as MJF's social media exchange with Oiwa over their respective headlocks and Oiwa inviting him to enter the 2027 G1. We then head to GCW Homecoming, where former WWE wrestler Joe Gacy, now Joseph Sawyer, ended Atticus Cogar's 266-day reign to become GCW World Champion with assistance from the returning Drake Younger. Drake's appearance immediately generated controversy because of the statements and affiliations that surrounded the end of his WWE tenure, leading to a public apology the following night. Brett Lauderdale then explained his decision to give Drake another opportunity by revealing that Younger helped save his life during Lauderdale's battle with opiate addiction in 2012 and took him to his first Narcotics Anonymous meeting. We look at both the legitimate reasons for the backlash and the deeply personal reason Lauderdale believes Drake deserves a second chance. On the WWE side, Chelsea Green's cracked orbital bone has unexpectedly created one of SmackDown's more interconnected women's stories. Nick Aldis gave Green 30 days to be medically cleared rather than immediately stripping her of the WWE Women's Championship, while Mickie James praised Green's emotional promo as one of the greatest she has seen. Nia Jax and Lash Legend have already targeted the injured champion, Tiffany Stratton came to Green's defense and that decision later contributed directly to Stratton losing the Women's United States Championship to Jacy Jayne and Fatal Influence. We also look at the growing possibility of LA Knight challenging Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship at Money in the Bank in New Orleans, with AJ Styles publicly arguing that Knight has never been more ready to become world champion. Roman's September title defense is also being built through WWE-owned AAA, where La Parka has advanced to face Penta while Rey Fenix defeated El Fiscal on Raw to reach the semifinals of the tournament determining Roman's challenger in Mexico City. That integration is interesting, but it also highlights the continuing disconnect in AAA's presentation when Mega Champion Dominik Mysterio can regularly lose on WWE television while AAA is simultaneously being used to produce challengers for WWE's world champion. Plus, AEW has reached the quarterfinals of the Continental Challenge Cup with Nigel McGuinness fighting through an injury to face Hechicero, Jon Moxley meeting Jay White, Orange Cassidy facing Kyle O'Reilly and Claudio Castagnoli renewing his rivalry with Eddie Kingston as the tournament moves toward Glasgow and the All In final at Wembley. We also discuss Grayson Waller taking aim at CM Punk and the NXT locker room, and TNA bringing Lockdown back for the first time since 2016 while attaching the bizarre stipulation that Leon Slater's entire 298-day X-Division Championship reign will be erased from company history if he loses to Cedric Alexander.
