STRIGGA & Dylan return with a deep dive into New Japan Pro Wrestling's Dominion, breaking down the key moments from NJPW's annual big summer event in Osaka. The main focus in this show is on questionable booking decisions, but also on character development and how very little of this development ever matters. With the results of the show and the actual good match quality in mind, they analyze what it says about New Japan's current direction. The conversation heats up with a look at the growing influence of the House of Torture and ongoing shifts in faction dynamics. How are these developments shaping the landscape heading into the summer? This leads straight to an early speculation about who might be the favorites going into the G1 Climax and how this could shape the second half of 2025 and the road to the Tokyo Dome. Disclaimer: The final 15 minutes of the show see Dylan mourn the death of his grandpa Ken.

In this electric episode of the Wrestling Mayhem Show, Sorg and Rizz welcome indie wrestling favorite Zeke Mercer back to the couch! The crew dives deep into a chaotic week in pro wrestling with a mix of serious takes and absurdity—exactly the way we like it. From R-Truth's epic return and fan-fueled redemption arc to nipple conspiracies and puppet spots, this show covers it all. Zeke shares behind-the-scenes insight into 880 Wrestling, their tag team ambitions, international opponents, and why Pittsburgh crowds cluster like shy raccoons. Plus, what Mr. Iguana's WWE moment says about cross-promotional chaos, and how multi-man matches are the new storytelling gold. Ron “The Truth” Killings' Return: The crew celebrates R-Truth's Money in the Bank surprise. Debates whether his release and return was a work. Agrees the fan support storyline felt organic and powerful. Touches on Carlito's missed spotlight and fan campaigns. Is Wrestling “Real”? The Hogan Fallacy: A philosophical and comical debate on separating wrestler personas from real-life identities. Sorg argues that Hulk Hogan didn't draw the house—Vince did. Wade Barrett and the Nipplegate Investigation: Discussion on Wade Barrett allegedly identifying El Grande Americano (Chad Gable) by his nipples. Zeke delivers a critical (and hilarious) response as a “nipple expert.” Mr. Iguana's Rise and WWE Merch: Mr. Iguana's AAA performance captures WWE fans' imaginations. Sorg reveals Iguana has merch and trading cards on WWE Shop. Talk of Iguana joining NXT's Chase U as a class pet ensues. WWE and AAA Crossovers: WWE's integration of AAA talent is praised. Talk about the difficulty of watching AAA shows legally. Hopes for more cross-promotional synergy. Modern WWE Match Style: Praise for the high-paced four-way and six-man matches in WWE lately. “Kinetic storytelling” as the new standard. Comparison to old IWC four-way tag classics that made stars. 880 Wrestling Talk: Zeke updates fans on the matriarchy tag team and upcoming international opponents. Discusses Penn Brewery's unique venue issues and crowd quirks. Talks 880's openness to experimentation and local buzz. AEW, WWE, and Indie Fans Online: Rant about fans critiquing everything online but not attending shows. Zeke points out fans should “put their phones down and go experience it.” Training and Schools with WWE IDs: Discussion on WWE promoting affiliated schools. Emphasis that it's never been easier to get into wrestling—at least in concept. Fan Identity & Tribalism in Wrestling: They discuss how wrestling fans love to hate—and how hate fuels the fire for characters like Zeke Mercer. Zeke encourages hate mail to be sent directly to 880 Wrestling's address.

This week, STRIGGA & Dylan start the show talking about the new Hayabusa and from there discuss mask gimmicks in modern japanese pro wrestling including Tiger Mask and Mentai Kid. The biggest point of discussion on the show follows with Wrestling Dontaku, Resurgence and Best Of The Super Junior leaving their marks on New Japan Pro Wrestling in May leading up to Dominion in June. Hirooki Goto still carries the World Title, Yota Tsuji and Gabe Kidd battle for prime positioning and what about Callum Newman? More questions are asked with All Japan Pro Wrestling and their Champion Carnival. Who came out stronger? What about the Saitos and where is it all leading? This brings DRAGONGATE into the conversation as well with Madoka Kikuta turning to Z-Brats, U-T winning the Brave Gate and GOLD CLASS winning the services of Hyo. Finally, the Eastern Lariat team brings up OZAWA vs. Kaito Kiyomiya in Pro Wrestling NOAH that may or may not have an extra stipulation.
