Night 1 Recap: The night kicked off with Roman Reigns and Jey Uso teaming up against Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed. The hosts discuss whether Jey Uso's popularity is surpassing Roman's and speculate on the cousins' next moves. The Women's Tag Team Championship match saw Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez retain against Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, but the hosts question if fans even cared about the outcome. Sami Zayn defeated Karrion Kross in their singles rubber match, but the hosts admit the match lacked excitement. Tiffany Stratton retained her Women's Championship against Jade Cargill, leading to a debate on whether this loss derails Jade's momentum. Randy Orton and Jelly Roll's surprising win over Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul sparked discussions about Jelly Roll's performance and McIntyre's momentum.

The hosts analyze the fallout and ponder the future of Seth Rollins and CM Punk's rivalry. Day 2 Predictions: The hosts preview Day 2's stacked card, including John Cena vs. Cody Rhodes in a Street Fight, Naomi defending her Women's World Championship in a Triple Threat, and a 6-team TLC match for the Tag Team Championships.

Life is Fighting by Kevin Robert Kesar aka Karrion Kross will be published by ECW Press on August 5, 2025.Karrion Kross's physique - a hulking 6'4", 265 pounds - and the unbridled intensity in his eyes is enough on its own to inspire fear in opponents. Factor in his unique combination of precision and abject ruthlessness, and it becomes clear that anyone stepping in the ring with Kross is in immediate danger. A master of catch wrestling and sambo, Kross has done battle around the world. He boasts an array of devastating suplexes, including his dreaded Doomsday Saito. And if that's not enough, he's more than happy to put opponents to sleep with the Kross Jacket.For all his menacing exterior, the human being behind the character - whose real name is Kevin Kesar - is a soft-spoken, highly thoughtful individual with a powerful story. Recognized by peers for his exceptional love for his profession, Kesar endured numerous setbacks on the way to achieving his dream. Along with his wife, Elizabeth - known in WWE as Scarlett - he has repeatedly found the fortitude to bounce back stronger, personally and professionally. This book is full of fascinating stories, heartache, humor, and even some advice for those with similar aspirations. Readers will be immersed into Kesar's unique mindset as he pulls back the curtain on what the journey (and the fight) to the top of sports entertainment is really like.Kevin Robert Kesar is a professional wrestler for World Wrestling Entertainment on USA Network & FOX. A performer, actor, martial artist, and producer of the short film Blue Evening, he's entertained and competed worldwide for more than a decade. Although he resides in Orlando, he's seen many worlds and offers very intimate and personal stories through his multicultural background as a proud New York-born traveler.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

#WWE superstar Karrion Kross brings his new book "Life is Fighting" to the show! #wwe #hulkhogan #books
This week on The Snug Wrestling Podcast, chaos becomes clarity when the passing of Hulk Hogan shakes up the usual one-on-one between Mr. Bludd and Edgar. The tribute takes an unfiltered turn as Edgar lays out his raw, heartfelt, and brutally honest thoughts on the Hulkster's controversial legacy—love, hate, and all the shredded yellow tank tops in between.And just when you think it's all leg drops and eulogies, the Snug duo tag in a full breakdown of Karrion Kross's WWE future. Who should Kross face next? Which matches elevate him, and which ones send him packing? Bludd and Edgar book it like only they can—with chaos, insight, and a sprinkle of snug-style prophecy.
This week, Shay and Erik are back to answering your questions! We discuss the fans showing love to Charlotte Flair recently, how fan support helped Karrion Kross get time on TV, and Goldberg's unhappiness with his retirement sendoff.
