The latest episode of the First Black Champ Podcast covers an array of exciting wrestling topics and controversies. The hosts kick off by debating Damien Priest's sudden focus on Jacob Fatu, raising questions about the timing, especially with Fatu seemingly headed toward a match with Solo Sikoa. The surprise release of R-Truth from WWE is also explored, with the hosts reflecting on his storied career and speculating on what's next for him. The discussion shifts to potential betrayals, as the hosts analyze which team is more likely to implode first: Logan Paul/John Cena or Cody Rhodes/Jey Uso. This leads into an intense conversation about the brewing rivalry between Naomi, Jade, and Bianca, as their triple threat storyline continues to heat up. Predictions are made about how this feud could shape up heading into bigger events like SummerSlam. Money in the Bank is a central focus, with a deep breakdown of the men's and women's matches. The participants, including CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Naomi, and Alexa Bliss, are meticulously evaluated, as are the remaining qualifying matches. High-stakes matches like Cody and Jey vs. Cena and Logan and Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch command attention with their potential implications. The episode wraps with the cheeky "Do We Care" segment, where topics like Sheamus vs. Rusev, Melo and Miz, and the Raw Tag Team Titles are hilariously dissected.

Every week we're here breaking down everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and the rest of the wrestling world — the real stories, the real moves, and why they matter. This week, we start with The Rock, who has been making serious noise behind the scenes after WrestleMania 41. After stepping away from the Cody Rhodes and John Cena storyline at the last minute, The Rock is back in the spotlight — not just for creative decisions, but for a public clash with Busted Open's Dave LaGreca. We'll dig into what's really going on, how much influence The Rock actually has right now, and whether we're seeing the start of a bigger shift inside WWE. The returns didn't stop there either. Aleister Black made his long-awaited comeback on SmackDown, bringing back that dark, dangerous edge. Meanwhile over on Raw, Rusev returned in a big way. We'll break down what both of these returns could mean for WWE's summer plans, and where they might slot into the bigger picture. It wasn't all celebration though. Charlotte Flair had some strong words after the WrestleMania Roast crossed a few lines, and you can feel the real tension just under the surface. We'll talk about why this isn't just about bad jokes — it's about respect, the locker room atmosphere, and how things backstage might be a little more unsettled than they seem. In NXT, Noam Dar continues building a quietly historic resume. He's now the only four-time Heritage Cup Champion, and at a time when consistency is rare, Dar's steady presence is starting to stand out even more. We'll take a look at why this win matters, and why it might be signaling bigger things for NXT moving forward. Meanwhile, TNA Rebellion is shaping up to be one of the biggest cards of their modern era. Joe Hendry defends the World Title against Ethan Page and Frankie Kazarian. Masha Slamovich puts the Knockouts Championship on the line against a returning Tessa Blanchard. Ultimate X is back for the X-Division Title. The Hardys defend the Tag Titles against the Nemeth brothers. And Mustafa Ali vs Mike Santana in a Falls Count Anywhere match could end up stealing the show. We'll go match-by-match and get you ready for a night that could reshape the TNA landscape. And across the border, the battle for Mexico's wrestling future is heating up. AEW made the first move, announcing their upcoming Arena México show with CMLL — a historic partnership that immediately turned heads. Now WWE is responding in a big way, fast-tracking their plans following the acquisition of AAA and setting up their own events to plant a flag in the region. This isn't just about who can sell tickets — it's about who controls the narrative and future of lucha libre going forward. Finally, we'll close tonight by paying tribute to the late Steve "Mongo" McMichael. Mongo was one of a kind — NFL champion, Horseman, commentator, and larger-than-life personality inside and outside the ring. We'll share a few stories and a few laughs, and raise a glass to a guy who always gave the fans everything he had. Stick around — big moves, real emotion, and a lot to get into tonight on Wrestling Tonight. Grab a drink, pull up a chair — let's talk some wrestling.
