    Jey Uso picked up a big win over The Miz, which sparked discussion about why Miz—Cena's most frequent opponent—wasn't included in the legend's retirement tour. Meanwhile, Rusev stunned Damien Priest, and Matt Cardona (formerly Zack Ryder) made his surprise return as a mystery challenger before falling to LA Knight, just as #FBCBeKnowin predicted. Is Cardona officially on his way back to WWE? Sheamus toppled Nakamura, while upcoming matches include GUNTHER vs. Je'Von Evans and Solo Sikoa vs. a mystery opponent on Raw, plus Carmelo Hayes vs. Bronson Reed and Penta vs. Finn Balor on SmackDown. The crew debates who got “snubbed” from the tournament after Cena captured the Intercontinental Championship to become a certified Grand Slam Champion. Attention then turns to Survivor Series War Games, with predictions nearly finalized. Team Punk—CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, The Usos, and a mystery partner—are slated to face The Vision's crew of Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Logan Paul, Drew McIntyre, and another TBA. Bang's bold call: Damien Priest joins Team Punk while Aleister Black aligns with The Vision. Could Lesnar and Reigns return to shake up the card? And more importantly… do we care? Women's War Games is heating up as Nikki Bella's shocking heel turn against Stephanie Vaquer sets the stage: Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, Alexa Bliss, and two TBD teammates take on Nia Jax, Lash Legend, and The Kabuki Warriors. Meanwhile, SmackDown may stage a classic 5-on-5 Survivor Series Elimination match featuring MFT versus Sami Zayn, Rey Fenix, Nakamura, and The Motor City Machine Guns.

    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!

    The DeLorean's still parked under the blue lights — and in Episode 2 of Shot of Nostalgia: Season 7 – The SmackDown Six Era, we're stepping into the stretch where SmackDown built its identity. Acefield Retro breaks down Blueprint of Greatness, when Paul Heyman's creative direction started to take form. By late 2002, Raw leaned on promos and spectacle, while SmackDown focused on matches that told stories and defined characters. This episode features a watch-along of Edge vs. Eddie Guerrero (No DQ, 9/26/02) — a match that shows exactly how the SmackDown Six style came to life: physical, precise, and built on timing and trust. Also covered: • Angle vs. Mysterio at SummerSlam 2002 — A showcase of what WWE's new in-ring standard could be. • Angle & Benoit vs. Edge & Rey (8/29 SmackDown) — The match that revealed the SmackDown Six chemistry. • Los Guerreros form as a team — Eddie and Chavo add humor, arrogance, and cohesion to the division. • Tag Team Championship Tournament announcement — The moment Heyman's structure became official. By September, SmackDown wasn't trying to compete with Raw — it had its own rhythm, purpose, and storytelling approach. Presented by The Turnbuckle Tavern, where nostalgia meets conversation. Follow @TurnbuckleTavern and @AcefieldRetro for updates. Support the show on Patreon.com/TheTurnbuckleTavern for early access, bonus episodes, and exclusive content for just $2.99 a month. New episodes air Fridays at 7 PM ET. Grab a seat, pour one up, and revisit the months where SmackDown built the Blueprint of Greatness.

    The boys breakdown Cena's last ride into his hometown of BOSTON where he finally becomes a GRAND SLAM CHAMPION after vanquishing the dastardly Dirty Dominik Mysterio. Discussions take place on the men and women's War Games teams, a possible Jacob Fatu return, favorite mid carder Tama Tonga, and the Diesel of it all in Lash Legend. Over in AEW we were treated to a mini PPV with AEW Blood and Guts, featuring the first ever women's Blood and Guts with Toni Storm making a truly spectacular showing, Hangman Page defending his title and declaring a cage match against Samoa Joe for Full Gear, and the men tearing each other up in the Blood and Guts match in a way only Jon Moxley and Darby Allin can.WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT PRO WRESTLING?

    John Cena Wins IC TitleLast Time Is Now Tournament Kicks OffKabuki Warriors Win Women's Tag Team TitlesPWI 2025 Women's Top 250 ReleasedWWE pulled off a shocker in Boston last night, as John Cena defeated Dominik Mysterio to win the Intercontinental Championship, becoming 22nd male and 28th overall Grand Slam Champion in WWE History. We break down this entire segment, from the opening with Triple H, to the interruption by Mysterio leading to a confrontation and impromptu title defense of the IC title in front of a packed crowd at the TD Garden. Was it the right call to have Cena dethrone Dominik? How does the IC title factor into Cena's final month? What's next for Dominik? We also saw the kickoff of the Last Time Is Now tournament, with the first 4 matches taking place and more opening round matches announced, including the tease of 2 mystery entrants. Who could the mystery participants be? We share our take, as well as recap the winners so far. Raw saw another big title change, as the Kabuki Warriors defeated Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss to become the new Women's Tag Team Champions, which also led to the setup for the Women's War Games Match at Survivor Series in just under 3 weeks. Was it the right time to take the titles off of Charlotte and Alexa, and should they remain in a tag team? Finally, PWI released their list of the Top 250 Women's Wrestlers in the world. The discuss the Top 10 and debate if they nailed the Top 10. Who was snubbed? All of this and more on this week's episode of the Lazy Booking Podcast on A2D Radio!

    Acefield Retro and Chad are back for Wrestling Tonight, and Episode 150 lands during one of the biggest weeks of the year. AEW is heading to Greensboro next Wednesday for Blood and Guts, live on TBS and HBO Max, with an expanded two-and-a-half-hour broadcast that feels closer to a pay-per-view than a weekly show. Hangman Page does battle against Powerhouse Hobbs in a Falls Count Anywhere match, the fifth men's Blood and Guts takes place, and for the first time ever, the women get their turn inside the cage. Greensboro isn't just another stop—it's the birthplace of WarGames, and AEW is honoring that legacy with a lineup that blends history, chaos, and spectacle. While AEW doubles down on its roots, WWE is rewriting its global playbook. Beginning in 2026, the company will run three Premium Live Events in Saudi Arabia, starting with Royal Rumble: Riyadh. The strategy is paying off in a big way. WWE officially surpassed UFC in both revenue and profit this quarter, powered by massive site fees and fewer but bigger shows. Nick Khan calls it "strategic scarcity," and the numbers prove him right. Fewer events, fuller arenas, higher prices, and bigger energy. Triple H continues to steer creative toward long-term storytelling, trading shock moments for layered narratives. The road to WrestleMania 43 runs through Montreal, Riyadh, and San Diego, with each stop feeling like a blockbuster on its own. Chelsea Green might be the story of the week. She reclaimed the Women's United States Championship on SmackDown, just days after winning the AAA Mixed Tag Titles with Ethan Page. Her rise from comic relief to crossover champion shows how WWE's new era is connecting international stories with mainline programming. AEW stirred its own headlines by unveiling the National Championship, sparking backlash from the NWA, who claim Tony Khan hijacked their legacy. Legal battles, brand pride, and a healthy dose of ego are turning a simple belt unveiling into one of the year's most intriguing real-world rivalries. Behind the scenes, AEW quietly moved its training and storage hub from Florida to Nashville, signaling a shift in infrastructure. Darby Allin celebrated a personal milestone as his long-awaited skatepark project with Tony Hawk was approved in Georgia, turning his offbeat persona into a real community legacy. In WWE, Drew McIntyre's meltdown and suspension following his attack on Cody Rhodes showed how fragile redemption arcs can be, while Ridge Holland's early release after his injury highlighted the harsh business side of the sport. And in Japan, the biggest emotional announcement of the year became official. Kazuchika Okada will face Hiroshi Tanahashi in Tanahashi's retirement match at Wrestle Kingdom 20. It's the final chapter in one of wrestling's greatest rivalries, a torch-passing moment that connects generations and promotions across the world. Outside the ring, the sports world is battling its own integrity crisis. The UFC is under FBI investigation for another betting scandal, and NBA figures like Chauncey Billups and Terry Rozier were charged in a federal gambling probe. These headlines cast a long shadow over sports entertainment as TKO navigates its dual ownership of WWE and UFC. As gambling expands across platforms, the line between competition and speculation grows thinner. Protecting legitimacy will matter just as much as growing profit. Episode 150 captures wrestling at a crossroads. AEW is refining its identity, WWE is globalizing its empire, and TKO is turning the entire industry into a corporate powerhouse. The business is bigger than ever, but it's still driven by the same thing that always made it work—real stories, human stakes, and the pull of seeing what happens next.
