Welcome back to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly deep dive into everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, ROH, and beyond. Episode 139 brings a full slate of fallout, previews, and key developments shaping the weeks ahead. We begin with the aftermath of AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2025, where London's O2 Arena hosted one of the most eventful cards in recent memory. From Hangman Page's hard-fought World Title defense to Wardlow's surprise alliance with Don Callis, Toni Storm extending her reign, and Will Ospreay's dramatic stretcher exit after a punishing cage match, we unpack the results and consider where the stories go from here. Next, we turn to a complete preview of WWE Clash in Paris, featuring John Cena vs. Logan Paul, Seth Rollins defending the World Heavyweight Championship in a Fatal 4-Way, Roman Reigns seeking payback against Bronson Reed, and Sheamus colliding with Rusev in a Donnybrook. With the looming possibility of Brock Lesnar's return to confront Cena, we explore the matches, the stakes, and the directions WWE may take as it heads toward Wrestlepalooza. We also take a closer look at WWE's billion-dollar transition to ESPN, as the Peacock era comes to a close. With Wrestlepalooza set to launch the new partnership, what will this shift mean for fans, streaming access, and WWE's identity within ESPN's sports-first framework? Finally, we cover the returns that shook GCW Homecoming, where Nick Gage, Karrion Kross, and Scarlett made impactful comebacks alongside Shotzi Blackheart, signaling a new chapter in the promotion's evolving landscape. Alongside these stories, we provide updates from NXT Heatwave, Naomi's pregnancy announcement and title handoff, and the latest discussion around Chris Jericho's future as his AEW contract nears its conclusion. Be sure to support the show at patreon.com/theturnbuckletavern for exclusive content, and follow us on social media @TurnbuckleTavern for all the latest updates. Until next Monday, when we wine and dine with you kings and queens, stay out of the alley and away from the pork and beans: god luck and good speed.

Welcome back to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly look at everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and beyond. This week's episode covers one of the most loaded slates of the year as the summer calendar reaches a boiling point. We begin with a full preview of AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, where the world's biggest promotions collide once again on one of wrestling's most anticipated stages. Headlining the card, AEW World Champion Hangman Page defends against MJF in a long-awaited rematch, while AEW Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada puts his title on the line against Swerve Strickland. The show also features the reunion of Adam Copeland and Christian Cage as they team for the first time in over 14 years, Toni Storm defending the AEW Women's World Championship against Athena, and Zack Sabre Jr. meeting Nigel McGuinness for the IWGP World Championship. Kyle Fletcher defends the TNT title against Hiromu Takahashi, Mercedes Moné faces Persephone, Alex Windsor, and a Stardom representative in a TBS Championship Four-Way, and a stacked lights-out steel cage match pits Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Darby Allin, and Hiroshi Tanahashi in his London farewell against Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Gabe Kidd, and The Young Bucks. From there, we turn to WWE's future with NXT Heatwave. Oba Femi is set to defend the NXT Championship against either Trick Williams or Je'Von Evans, while Hank Walker and Tank Ledger put the NXT Tag Team titles on the line against DarkState. Jacy Jayne defends the TNA Knockouts World Championship in a triple threat against Masha Slamovich and Ash by Elegance, and Jordynne Grace collides with Blake Monroe. A number one contender's match for the NXT Women's Championship will also take place featuring Jaida Parker, Kelani Jordan, and Lola Vice. Over in TNA, Emergence 2025 delivered a card full of major results. Trick Williams retained the World Championship against Moose in a match that had the Baltimore crowd split but firmly cemented Williams as TNA's top babyface. The Hardys retained the World Tag Team titles against The Rascalz in one of the night's highlights, Leon Slater held onto the X-Division Championship against Cedric Alexander, and Mike Santana defeated Sami Callihan in a Baltimore Street Fight that may have marked Callihan's farewell. While technical issues marred the preshow, the main event and key title bouts gave TNA momentum heading into Bound for Glory. In Mexico, Triplemanía marked the official beginning of WWE and AAA's working relationship. Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Nick Khan stood alongside AAA leadership to emphasize collaboration. On the card, Omos won the Copa Bardahl, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. claimed the Latin American title, and Psycho Clown and Pagano captured the AAA Tag Team Championship. Judgment Day scored a win in trios action, Flammer retained the Reina de Reinas Championship, and in the main event, El Hijo del Vikingo retained the AAA Mega Championship in a four-way over Dominik Mysterio, Dragon Lee, and El Grande Americano, with AJ Styles making a shocking run-in to help seal the finish. The event had the production, presentation, and pacing of a WWE show, sparking debate about AAA's evolving identity under this partnership. On the business side, TKO announced that UFC will end its traditional pay-per-view model beginning in January 2026 under a $7.7 billion, seven-year deal with Paramount Plus and CBS. WWE also secured a five-year, $1.6 billion agreement with ESPN, moving Premium Live Events like WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Royal Rumble to ESPN's new streaming service. At the same time, reports revealed WWE holds an option to purchase TNA and a right of first refusal should the company seek another buyer, further linking the two promotions' futures. Finally, NJPW's G1 Climax 35 has reached its conclusion. Konosuke Takeshita defeated EVIL in the final at Ariake Arena, fighting through an injured knee and overcoming House of Torture interference to secure his first G1 victory. Along the way, Takeshita shocked Zack Sabre Jr. in the semifinals, setting the stage for their Wrestle Kingdom clash, where he will challenge for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. With this win, Takeshita declared himself “The Alpha,” signaling his rise as NJPW's new international ace.

Johnny, Diana, and Gringo ingested this week's AEW Collision and are here to break it down for you, piece by piece. With Forbidden Door on the near horizon, Collision opened more doors to get you ready for the London action. Toni Storm and Athena are nearly ready to decapitate one another for your amusement. FTR uses salty tactics to pepper Brodido ahead of their number one contender's match for the tag titles. Ace Austin makes his “inevitable” debut against Ricochet. Another member of the women's roster becomes $100,000 richer. Brian Keith gets no respect, while Nigel McGuiness reluctantly tastes the sweet tears of Daniel Garcia after a hard-hitting “technical spectacle.” Also, what's a Collision without an obligatory Hologram appearance. Additionally, the trio talks headlines from the entire world of professional wrestling, from Drew McIntyre being the best heel he can be, to Matt Riddle rants, and more Karrion Kross speculation. We have all the takes you can handle!

PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents the Tuesday Flagship edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with guest co-host PWTorch columnist and PWTorch podcast host Greg Parks. They discuss these topics:A lengthy look at the Summerslam line-up taking shape, is it deep enough and special enough to justify two nights, and is there is enough time to properly build key matches?Is C.M. Punk showing character malaise after a rough summer so far?Is Goldberg's post-retirement griping a revealing validation of WWE not really rolling out the red carper for his retirement?Is TNA benefiting from in NXT/WWE crossover in both short-run and long-run?Should AEW focus on "Hangman" Page and Toni Storm as clear top stars, or stick with the ensemble formula to make room for Mercedes Mone, Will Ospreay, Swerve Strickland, and others?Did WWE Evolution succeed enough in key ways to justify making it an annual event, and does it deserve its own weekend?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.
I WENT TO ALL IN!!!!! Join host Kenny Servera as he breaks down the evening's most memorable moments: The epic showdown in the Texas Deathmatch, where “Hangman” Adam Page dethroned Jon Moxley. The standout tag‑team bout featuring Swerve Strickland & Will Ospreay vs. The Young Bucks—and the fallout that changed AEW's EVP landscape. A spotlight on the elite women's matches, including Toni Storm vs. Mercedes Moné and the Women's Casino Gauntlet. Top undercard matches, returns, and surprise twists—plus Kenny's signature hot takes. Context around AEW's counter-programming strategy and what All In means for the company's direction. Whether you're a lifelong AEW fan or just caught the highlights, Kenny's take promises sharp insights and a dose of sports entertainment flair.
Neither WWE's NXT nor AEW put their best foot forward coming out of special shows, though the follow up to AEW All In: Texas was remarkably ho-hum. Host Adam Silverstein opens by taking a second look at NXT Great American Bash before diving into NXT [5:10], which featured Trick Williams and Jacy Jayne building for TNA Slammiversary 2025, Tony D'Angelo standing tall as his family came crashing down and Jordynne Grace wrecking shop while demanding Blake Monroe. "The Silver King" then focuses on a second look at AEW All In before tackling AEW Dynamite [26:05], including Hangman Page and Toni Storm celebrating their championships, MJF missing in action, Adam Copeland setting the stage for a Christian Cage reunification and the Young Bucks experiencing their first night without the EVP titles.
