In diesem neuen Fragen-Podcast stellen sich Headlock-Host Olaf Bleich und Kai S. erneut euren zahlreichen Hörerfragen – und sprechen offen über das aktuelle WWE-Geschehen, Entwicklungen bei AEW und Wrestling allgemein. Von John Cenas Grand-Slam-Moment bei Raw bis zum „The Last Time Is Now“-Turnier: Was funktioniert? Was sorgt für Kopfschütteln? Und wie könnte es für Cena, Dominik Mysterio und Co. weitergehen? Auch andere große Themen stehen im Fokus: - Ist die Netflix-Ära wirklich eine „Ruthless Depression“? Warum Online-Negativität oft wenig mit der Realität zu tun hat. - Randy Orton – unterschätzt oder einfach untergegangen? Weshalb „The Viper“ in Rankings und Clips häufig vergessen wird. - Die Wyatt Six: Vom großen Versprechen zum soliden Midcard-Stable – was lief gut, was weniger und was ist noch möglich? - Ilja Dragunov: Spektakuläre Matches, verhaltener Zuspruch – was fehlt noch zum ganz großen Durchbruch? - Mercedes Moné: Wie wird sie ihre Titel wieder los? Dazu wie immer: ehrliche Einordnungen, Kritik am Booking und jede Menge humorvolle Momente. Ein bunter Rundumschlag durchs Wrestling-Universum!

Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis
A farewell should feel dangerous. That's where we start: not with a bracket, but with the question every fan is asking—how do you give John Cena a last match that actually means something? We pull the camera back and talk event booking, the kind that turns a date on the calendar into a knot in your stomach. From there we pitch a finale that leans on history, stakes, and a rival who can raise the room's blood pressure in seconds.Teddy Long brings the on-the-ground truth that only a Hall of Famer can. When he was told, “You're taking the FU tonight,” it wasn't panic—it was craft. He breaks down the mindset behind trust, safety, and selling big without overselling, plus why Bobby Eaton's generosity could turn a nobody into a somebody in one look. We revisit taped vs live television, the non-negotiable work ethic that made the Horsemen era timeless, and how to carry intensity whether there are 300 fans or 15,000.We also take a hard look at modern presentation. WWE gave Cena a surprise Intercontinental title moment while crowding his spotlight. AEW opened with a bloody women's cage match that grabbed attention; we ask whether shock served character or overshadowed it. Along the way, we celebrate Steamboat's longevity, swap NWA memories, and answer listener questions on Randy Orton, legacy booking, and which talents truly benefit when a legend exits.If you care about storytelling, ring psychology, and send-offs that stick, this one's for you. Listen, weigh in with your pick for Cena's final opponent, and tell us how you'd book the ending.

It's Observer Hall of Fame season, and you know what that means: With Kris having to take the week off, David figured this would be a good week of a HOF show, so he's joined here by our dear friend John Pollock of POST Wrestling to go over the ballot! The focus is on new/returning candidates and our ballot shortlists for the most part to keep our sanity, but there's a ton of ground covered, with topics including:David's new research into the Von Erichs and how it affects their candidacy as a group.Decoding the criteria as it applies to teams vs. singles acts.The underrepresentation of historically marginalized groups in the HOF.Junkyard Dog getting unfairly made out to be a far inferior candidate than he actually is in a lot of HOF discussions.Sabu's case coming into focus in the aftermath of his death.What's the threshold for high level in-ring longevity candidates like the Briscoes, Masaaki Mochizuki, and Meiko Satomura?Between last year's inductions of CIMA and Shingo Takagi and this year's addition of Mochizuki to the ballot, is it time to put a lot more focus on Dragongate candidates, whether individually or as groups?Is Becky Lynch's candidacy losing stream?Did CM Punk deliberately sabotage AEW, and if so, how does that reflect on his otherwise strong case for induction?The Randy Orton problem: Right now, it's easy to make the case for why he's a weak candidate. Will voters lost sight of that years down the line?Batista needing reconsideration under the current rule set when he's a far superior candidate to almost everyone else on the modern U.S./Canada ballot.Did Cody Rhodes' pec injury rob him of the credit he deserves for being the catalyst for the 2020s WWE boom period?Aew we overvaluing in-ring work when it comes to candidates like Tiger Jeet Singh?Trying to figure out the areas where the WON HOF should be more like the Rock 'n' Roll HOF than sports halls of fame, including whether or not feuds should be considered as much of an “act” as tag teams are since it's all a work.The problem with candidates like Zane Bresloff and Rossy Ogawa where we're largely relying on a friend or two to make the case for them. The glut of candidates like Morris Sigel, Bobby Bruns, and Roy Welch that arguably shouldn't be up to a vote in the first place.The rise of “non-standard” candidates like Jim Johnson and Reggie Parks.Mike Tenay arguably having much more actual stylistic influence on the style taken up by successor announcers than Jesse Ventura did.Dave Brown being unfairly punished for being the sidekick of the GOAT, Lance Russell despite being an HOF-level announcer himself and fans in the Memphis territory tending to put them over as a team.…and much more.

The focus is on new/returning candidates and our ballot shortlists for the most part to keep our sanity, but there's a ton of ground covered, with topics including:David's new research into the Von Erichs and how it affects their candidacy as a group.Decoding the criteria as it applies to teams vs. singles acts.The underrepresentation of historically marginalized groups in the HOF.Junkyard Dog getting unfairly made out to be a far inferior candidate than he actually is in a lot of HOF discussions.Sabu's case coming into focus in the aftermath of his death.What's the threshold for high level in-ring longevity candidates like the Briscoes, Masaaki Mochizuki, and Meiko Satomura?Between last year's inductions of CIMA and Shingo Takagi and this year's addition of Mochizuki to the ballot, is it time to put a lot more focus on Dragongate candidates, whether individually or as groups?Is Becky Lynch's candidacy losing stream?Did CM Punk deliberately sabotage AEW, and if so, how does that reflect on his otherwise strong case for induction?The Randy Orton problem: Right now, it's easy to make the case for why he's a weak candidate. Will voters lost sight of that years down the line?Batista needing reconsideration under the current rule set when he's a far superior candidate to almost everyone else on the modern U.S./Canada ballot.Did Cody Rhodes' pec injury rob him of the credit he deserves for being the catalyst for the 2020s WWE boom period?Aew we overvaluing in-ring work when it comes to candidates like Tiger Jeet Singh?Trying to figure out the areas where the WON HOF should be more like the Rock 'n' Roll HOF than sports halls of fame, including whether or not feuds should be considered as much of an “act” as tag teams are since it's all a work.The problem with candidates like Zane Bresloff and Rossy Ogawa where we're largely relying on a friend or two to make the case for them. The glut of candidates like Morris Sigel, Bobby Bruns, and Roy Welch that arguably shouldn't be up to a vote in the first place.The rise of “non-standard” candidates like Jim Johnson and Reggie Parks.Mike Tenay arguably having much more actual stylistic influence on the style taken up by successor announcers than Jesse Ventura did.Dave Brown being unfairly punished for being the sidekick of the GOAT, Lance Russell despite being an HOF-level announcer himself and fans in the Memphis territory tending to put them over as a team.…and much more.

PWTorch editor Wade Keller is joined by PWTorch's Eric Corbridge to review WWE Smackdown including evaluating the clunky contract signing segment where WWE put Stephanie Vaquer and Tiffany Stratton in a situation that exposed their weaknesses and didn't play to their strengths all just to set up a tag match next week. Also, the difference between a Pet Peeve and a meaningful critique of sloppy or lazy habits leads to a fun segment of listeners' Pro Wrestling Pet Peeves. Plus, Booker T's commentary fails tonight and ideas on how to improve his contributions, the Sami Zayn-Aleister Black finish, Cody Rhodes playing up the "little brother" demeanor with Randy Orton too much, and more with live caller, email, and chat interaction throughout.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-post-shows--3275545/support.
