The crew kicks off with a hard-hitting review of the Women's Intercontinental Championship No DQ match between Becky Lynch and Lyra, followed by the chaotic 6-Team TLC Tag Team Title war where the WYATT SICKS fought to defend against Andrade & Rey Fénix, DIY, Fraxiom, the Motor City Machine Guns, and The Street Profits. The Intercontinental Championship saw Dominik Mysterio put his gold on the line against AJ Styles, while the United States Championship Steel Cage clash between Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu delivered brutal, high-impact drama. The Women's World Championship Triple Threat with Naomi, Rhea Ripley, and IYO SKY kept fans guessing, before the night closed with a wild Undisputed WWE Championship Street Fight between John Cena and Cody Rhodes—plus a tease of Brock Lesnar's return… only to get Logan Paul the next day. The debate heats up over the “Mr. SummerSlam” title, as Brock Lesnar's 6-6 record (including nine main events) comes under scrutiny—highlighting his current 5-match losing streak despite iconic wins over The Rock, Cena, Punk, and others. The team also reacts to The Vision finally having an official name, speculates on Seth Rollins' next opponent (LA Knight or Roman Reigns), and previews Cody Rhodes' potential triple threat with Drew McIntyre in Paris.

At the epicenter was AEW All In: Texas, a six-hour showcase of brutality, catharsis, and renewal that drew over 25,000 fans to Globe Life Field and pushed AEW's creative ambition to new heights. The main event saw Hangman Adam Page reclaim the AEW World Championship in a Texas Death Match against Jon Moxley—a match soaked in blood, symbolism, and emotional weight. With broken glass, barbed wire, and chain-assisted violence, Page not only overcame Moxley but rewrote his own legacy. No longer haunted by doubt, Hangman's second title reign began surrounded by surprising allies—Swerve Strickland, Bryan Danielson, and Darby Allin—each playing a role in this violent resurrection. Elsewhere, Kazuchika Okada unified two of AEW's top singles titles, defeating Kenny Omega in their first singles bout in six years. But the match's integrity was once again compromised by Don Callis, whose interference robbed Omega of a clean opportunity. Toni Storm handed Mercedes Moné her first AEW singles loss in a dramatic, character-driven clash. Dustin Rhodes captured the TNT Title in his home state after Adam Cole emotionally vacated the belt, and MJF earned a future AEW World Title shot by surviving one of the deepest Casino Gauntlet fields in company history. In a match with long-term implications, Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland defeated The Young Bucks, officially stripping them of EVP status and signaling a broader shift in AEW's power structure. Meanwhile, WWE's Saturday Night's Main Event XL offered its own landmark moment as Goldberg wrestled the final match of his 28-year career, falling to Gunther via technical submission. With echoes of WCW and real-time tears from friends and family, it was a farewell steeped in emotion, legacy, and consequence. Elsewhere on the card, Seth Rollins appeared to suffer a knee injury during a moonsault attempt against LA Knight—causing a hush over the crowd as officials briefly entered the ring before Knight capitalized to secure a win. The extent of Rollins' injury remains unclear but could alter WWE's title picture heading into SummerSlam. Randy Orton defeated Drew McIntyre with a signature RKO after Logan Paul and Jelly Roll clashed at ringside, igniting a likely tag match in the weeks ahead. And in the U.S. Title match, Solo Sikoa retained over Jimmy Uso thanks to interference from Tama Tonga—only to be confronted afterward by a returning Jacob Fatu, injecting new blood into the crumbling remains of The Bloodline. In NXT, The Great American Bash: Atlanta served as a creative cornerstone for the brand. Oba Femi retained the NXT Championship in a stiff, international showcase against NOAH's Yoshiki Inamura, while Ethan Page narrowly survived a star-making performance by Ricky Saints in a wild Falls Count Anywhere match. Sol Ruca and Je'Von Evans scored meaningful victories, and in a significant cross-promotional moment, Trick Williams, Joe Hendry, and Mike Santana signed the contract for their TNA World Title triple threat at Slammiversary, adding gravity to WWE's growing collaboration with TNA. From Hangman's bloody redemption to Rollins' uncertain status, from Goldberg's goodbye to the rise of AEW's next chapter, Wrestling Tonight captures a weekend where every promotion moved its pieces forward—and where the past, present, and future collided with force.
WWE Saturday Night's Main Event featured Goldberg's retirement against GUNTHER and a potentially devastating injury to Seth Rollins, while NXT Great American Bash overdelivered to expectation. Host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini convene to break down all the results in Getting Over's signature instant analysis review.

Episode 131 of Wrestling Tonight dives into one of the most consequential weeks in professional wrestling, where spectacle met scandal and history was made on multiple fronts. At the center of it all was WWE's Night of Champions, an event clouded in geopolitical controversy and marked by dramatic in-ring developments. Headlining the show was John Cena, who emerged from his clash with CM Punk still Undisputed WWE Champion after a chaotic main event that seemed designed to frustrate rather than resolve. Punk's return to Saudi Arabia, after years of public criticism of the regime, added a complex emotional layer to the match—only to be further muddled by a murky finish and post-match taunting from Seth Rollins, who now looms large as a wild card with the Money in the Bank briefcase and Paul Heyman at his side. Elsewhere on the card, Cody Rhodes captured the King of the Ring crown in a ceremonial victory over Randy Orton, a bout more notable for its symbolism than its drama. Jade Cargill's Queen of the Ring triumph over Asuka was a visual spectacle but highlighted the steep learning curve she still faces. Sami Zayn, returning to Saudi Arabia for only the second time, scored an emotional victory over Karrion Kross in a moment that resonated deeply with the live crowd. The U.S. Title scene saw more chaos than clarity, with Solo Sikoa toppling Jacob Fatu in a match heavy on interference and light on clean resolution. WWE rounded out the event with a formal announcement: the 2026 Royal Rumble will be held in Riyadh, solidifying its long-term partnership with the Kingdom in a move that continues to stir debate about the company's global priorities and moral compass. Across the wrestling landscape, AEW is preparing for a record-setting night of its own as All In: Texas—set for July 12 at Globe Life Field—has already surpassed $2.5 million in gate revenue with over 19,000 paid tickets sold, becoming the most-attended non-WWE wrestling event in North American history. The event has begun to take shape with Mark Briscoe and Kris Statlander securing the first slots in their respective Casino Gauntlet matches, while JetSpeed—Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight—earned a title shot against The Hurt Syndicate after a fiery win on Dynamite. Their celebration was short-lived, as Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin, flanked by MVP and MJF, launched a brutal assault that left both challengers laid out, punctuating their dominance with a table-shattering finale. Back in NXT, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo claimed the Heritage Cup in dramatic and controversial fashion, as interference from Luca Crusifino backfired, fracturing the D'Angelo Family and casting doubt over loyalties. Injuries continue to plague WWE's roster, with Liv Morgan undergoing shoulder surgery and Chad Gable reportedly sidelined following an on-screen arm-break angle with Penta. Gable is set for surgery in early July and may miss several months of action. Meanwhile, Keith Lee took to social media to reassure fans his prolonged AEW absence is not health-related but rather out of his hands, a quiet critique of creative stasis. ROH and CMLL's Global Wars event delivered one of the year's most stirring cards, headlined by Bandido's successful ROH World Title defense over Mascara Dorada in a lucha clinic that further cemented his reign. The night also featured the emotional submission victory of Blue Panther over Lee Moriarty, which led to a surprise appearance from Bryan Danielson. Days later, Danielson again shocked fans by returning after AEW Collision in a surprise segment with Max Caster, submitting him in seconds with the LeBell Lock after an assist from Adam Cole. For the night, Danielson aligned with Kyle O'Reilly as “Kyle Danielson,” delighting the Washington crowd with a heartfelt rendition of “The Final Countdown.” Elsewhere in the news, the legal pressure continues to mount for WWE as Janel Grant's legal team filed a sweeping discovery request seeking emails, board minutes, NDA drafts, and internal communications involving Vince McMahon, WWE HR, Linda McMahon, and Dr. Carlton Colker. The move is intended to challenge WWE's push for arbitration, arguing that Grant's allegations of coercion deserve to be scrutinized in open court. MLW found itself in AEW's crosshairs as MJF appeared unannounced at an MLW taping to attack Mistico, further fueling speculation of a storyline—or power play—between the companies. NJPW's G1 tournament suffered a personal setback as Bad Luck Fale withdrew following a loss in the family, opening the door for Satoshi Kojima to face Ryohei Oiwa in the play-in. Meanwhile, Bobby Lashley not only continues his dominance in AEW but has also been announced for a French indie show following Forbidden Door, while teasing a potential MMA return after appearing at a recent BKFC event. In the world of broadcast media, SiriusXM has announced the launch of Pro Wrestling Nation, a 24/7 channel devoted entirely to pro wrestling that will replace Fight Nation. The new station will feature expanded programming including Busted Open Radio, Off the Ropes with Jonathan Coachman, and shows hosted by Natalya and Denise Salcedo. And just across from Madison Square Garden, a new Hulk Hogan-themed bar called Slam is preparing to open its doors, promising fans memorabilia, MSG nostalgia, and a full-circle tribute to one of wrestling's most controversial icons. From Saudi stadiums to Texas megashows, courtroom battles to backstage power moves, Wrestling Tonight continues to bring you the full spectrum of professional wrestling in all its triumphs, contradictions, and unfinished stories.
