Welcome to Wrestling Tonight: your weekly deep dive into WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and everything in between. This is Episode 137, and it's one of the most significant weeks for wrestling's future we've covered all year. WWE has officially signed a landmark five-year, $1.6 billion agreement to bring all U.S. premium live events to ESPN starting in 2026. It's a media move on par with the original WWE Network launch, but with major implications for what it will cost fans to follow the product year-round. We'll break down exactly how this changes the wrestling landscape, from pay-per-view access to mainstream visibility. This week, we also set the stage for a huge weekend ahead: TNA Emergence, TripleMania's first card since WWE acquired AAA, and the latest twists in NJPW's G1 Climax 35 playoff chase. From title matches to crossover moments, the next seven days could reshape the late-summer calendar. We break it all down: – WWE's ESPN deal explained: cost, accessibility, and its ripple effect on the industry – TNA Emergence Preview: Trick Williams defends the TNA World Championship against Moose in a card stacked with high-stakes matches – TripleMania in Mexico City: Dominik Mysterio challenges for the AAA Mega Championship, Natalya chases Reina de Reinas gold, and The Judgment Day steps into the AAA ring – NJPW's G1 Climax 35 update: the playoff picture tightens, standout matches emerge, and the road to the semifinals heats up – Eddie Kingston provides an update on his recovery and return plans – Brooke Hogan speaks candidly on her father's passing and their relationship – Jonathan Gresham reveals a frightening health scare after suffering two strokes – Paul Heyman weighs in on Brock Lesnar's return, WWE's future headliners, and the fallout from the Travis Scott angle – Karrion Kross addresses his WWE contract status and his SummerSlam experience Also this week:
Today's Flagship episode of The Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling is with WWE Superstar and author, Karrion Kross. The current WWE Superstar joins the show to talk about his entire professional wrestling career. Host John Poz and Kross will discuss his new book 'Life is Fighting', if he is a free agent, Triple H, "We want Kross", Sami Zayn, Paul Heyman, and a whole lot more!Life Is Fighting - https://www.amazon.com/Life-Fighting-Kevin-Robert-Kesar/dp/1770418490Store - https://twomanpowertrip.dashery.com/ teepublic.com/stores/tmptFollow us @TwoManPowerTrip on Twitter and IG
We took a week off from the main show, and you know what that means: We're keeping you busy with some older Between the Sheets Patreon content that we've now made available for free. This time, we decided to assemble the entire “FUCK SABU!” trilogy (originally Patreon episodes #43-#45), covering Sabu's wild 1995, into one file for everyone to check out as a taste of what our Patreon-only deep dives are like. This is a great example, too, as we notice some very interesting things that the newsletters didn't pick up on at the time, like Chris Benoit's surprisingly obvious involvement in orchestrating the whole scenario.Want more content like this? Then sign up for the $5.00/month ($50.40/year if paid annually upfront) tier on our Patreon page and check out the back catalog that spans almost 9 years. This month, for August, the deep dive that we've started on is more 1995 content, covering Bill Watts' brief stint booking the WWF. Also, don't forget: From this point forward, regardless of if we're doing a month-long deep-dive or a smattering of smaller topics, we now release weekly Patreon content, with the segments of the month-long deep dives getting dropped each week as we record them.Anyway, we hope you enjoy these shows, and now, here are the original show descriptions:Part 1:Since April is the 25th anniversary of Sabu being fired from ECW, we decided it was the perfect opportunity to take a deep dive looking at everything that happened surrounding that very memorable event. So that brings us to this month's special, part one of what should be at least two episodes looking at Sabu's 1995, from his signing with NJPW to his indie schedule to his troubles with ECW, climaxing with Sabu double booking himself the night of ECW's big Three-Way Dance card. How did Sabu end up booked in NJPW the same night as the ECW show on late notice, why didn't he just cancel one of the bookings, and how did the situation devolve from there?We look at all of this in-depth, as it was covered in the newsletters, where both Sabu and Paul Heyman were commenting in detail on the record. All that and much more, including Chris Benoit's apparent major role in the Sabu/ECW schism, the greatness of Murder Inc./Wolf Army in 1995 NJPW, Sabu getting maced while doing a run-in for Circle City Wrestling, Chris Zavisa as Sabu's house organ, the proliferation of "Best of Sabu" videotapes, the reemergence of Dennis Coralluzzo in Sabu's career, and much more.This is a GREAT show, with a *lot* of fascinating stuff that's never talked about. Here's looking forward to part two!Part 2:We're back to pick up where we left off in our journey through Sabu's 1995, starting a few weeks after his firing from ECW over the "FUCK SABU!" no-show, as he starts talking to WCW and wins the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship from Koji Kanemoto at the Fukuoka Dome. Things quickly take a turn, though, as Sabu *throws down the title while cutting a promo about how he's a heavyweight*, NJPW tries to pretend it never happened, Sabu drops the belt at the next major show, Sabu becomes one of the anchors of Kevin Sullivan's plan to build "two WCWs" for the Monday Nitro launch, and much more happens as we close out the show just before Nitro launches. But the real meat of this show is in the forgotten Observer report, in black and white and plain English, that Sabu and Paul Heyman came to a secret agreement on an ECW return months before the actual return happened, and how Taz must have been privy to it given his career prospects at the time.All that and much more on another fascinating chapter in the "FUCK SABU!" saga!Part 3:We're back to pick up where we left off in our journey through Sabu's 1995, finishing up the series as we cover the launch of WCW Monday Nitro through the release of the 1995 Wrestling Observer Newsletter Awards in January 1996. Topics include how quickly Sabu's WCW run fell apart, the strange six month gap where Sabu stops teaming with the rest of Masahiro Chono's Okami Gundan/Murder Inc. stable in NJPW, Sabu scrambling for ideas to make him a pushed heavyweight in WCW like bringing in The Sheik's old United States Championship belt, The Sheik becoming Sabu's agent, Sabu returning to Dennis Coralluzzo's NWA New Jersey, Sabu becoming a transitional UWA World Junior Light Heavyweight Champion, Konnan trying to court Sabu for AAA, Sabu returning to ECW the same day he worked for Dennis, a labyrinthian web of conflicting stories from Sabu and Heyman about how they worked out the return, Sabu “officially” being fired from WCW on their hotline, the WWF's efforts to get Sabu for the 1996 Royal Rumble, and MUCH more. This is a fantastic end to the series and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed recording it.Timestamps:0:09:00 December 1994-January 19950:40:11 February-March 19951:09:52 Week of April 3 & Week of April 10, 19952:04:29 Week of April 17, 19952:27:03 April-May 19953:14:04 June 19953:33:51 July 19954:02:51 August 19954:36:30 September 19955:19:37 October 19955:55:23 November 19956:43:38 December 1995 and beyondTo support the show and get access to exclusive rewards like special members-only monthly themed shows, go to our Patreon page at Patreon.com/BetweenTheSheets and become an ongoing Patron.

Bron Breaker snatches the spotlight and fires off his first real words on RAW, but why are Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman side-eyeing him from the shadows? Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver pull zero punches as they chase that thread into locker-room politics, billion-dollar tax “relief,” and whether an Elon-backed third party would nuke the 2024 race. You'll also get: • A Florida Man vs Jersey Guy showdown that turns into pure chaos • Nash's unfiltered take on fireworks, firearms, and those immortal “cracker” tweets • The gold-berg question: does nostalgia still sell when Trish and Bill step back in the ring • A hilariously overbooked wrestling weekend menu that somehow includes Liberia Hit play to see how deep the rabbit hole goes, then sound off in the comments. If you're new, smash that subscribe button and ring the bell so you never miss an episode of Kliq This.
