Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly deep dive into everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and more. This is Episode 134, and we're coming off one of the most eventful weekends of the summer. We start with the fallout from TNA Slammiversary 2025, where AJ Styles returned to the company he helped build. While the Phenomenal One didn't compete, his appearance marked a symbolic homecoming — and perhaps the beginning of something bigger. We break down what his involvement means for the WWE–TNA partnership, what's next for Trick Williams and Jacy Jayne after defending their titles, and how TNA continues to evolve as a major player in the current wrestling landscape. Then — Goldberg is done staying quiet. The Hall of Famer is furious over how WWE handled his final match, venting on the Ariel Helwani Show about being cut off, ignored, and given no real send-off. With his NDA reportedly set to expire in two weeks, we dig into what Goldberg hinted at — and whether WWE might be bracing for a scorched-earth response. Meanwhile in AEW, Tony Khan opens up about feeling double-crossed by AAA during the infamous 2022 tag title switch involving FTR and Dragon Lee. We revisit the moment, what really happened behind the scenes, and why this revelation — combined with AEW's growing relationship with CMLL — signals a full pivot away from AAA in the wake of WWE's pending acquisition. Also on the show: G1 Climax 35 is underway, and early results have already flipped expectations. We've got upsets, injuries, and surprise leaders in both blocks. Seth Rollins' knee injury raises more questions — is it legit or storyline misdirection ahead of a surprise cash-in? Jelly Roll slams Logan Paul through a desk on Jimmy Kimmel Live as SummerSlam hype hits a new level CM Punk praises Triple H, reflects on creative freedom, and previews his title clash with Gunther Roman Reigns returns to Raw, but what's really motivating the One True Chief? KENTA wins the GHC Heavyweight Title at NOAH's 25th Anniversary, setting up a legacy rematch with Marufuji Plus: Omega & Ospreay's time off, WWE's new severance policy, and more

Road Trip After Hours w/ WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long and Host Mac Davis
The wrestling world stands united through triumph and tragedy in this deeply personal episode of Wrestling's Road Trip After Hours. Mac Davis and Teddy Long begin by previewing Saturday Night's Main Event, dissecting the potential outcomes for Drew McIntyre versus Randy Orton, Seth Rollins facing LA Knight, and the heavyweight championship showdown between Gunther and Goldberg. Their seasoned analysis reveals why Goldberg's "final match" might not be so final if championship gold enters the equation.The conversation takes a poignant turn when Teddy addresses the recent passing of his son Antoine. With remarkable grace, he acknowledges the wrestling community's outpouring of support, specifically naming Stephanie McMahon, Triple H, Mark Henry, Bruce Prichard, and others who reached out during this difficult time. "When people do stuff like this, they don't have to," Teddy reflects. "That lets me know you ain't faking. You're real."Through fan questions, listeners gain rare insights into wrestling's golden era. Teddy recalls his first meeting with Vince McMahon in 1998, shares what made working with Vickie Guerrero special, and reveals surprising friendships with stars like Rick Rude. The hosts explore the creative differences between wrestling then and now, with Mac noting, "When Vince was there in WWE, it seemed like there was more creativity and fun things that happened. Today that does not exist, at least not for me."Whether discussing the roughest bump Teddy ever took (courtesy of Big Show), his approach to not dating talent ("You don't mix business with pleasure"), or humorous stories about fans who couldn't separate kayfabe from reality, this episode beautifully balances wrestling analysis with genuine human connection. Join these wrestling veterans as they remind us why the bonds formed through this unique industry endure through life's most challenging moments.Send us a text

Triple H didn't just dominate in the ring, he learned how to read a room, shift direction in real time, and lead an entire industry by listening closely.In this episode, we unpack the surprising psychology behind his success and explore how the powerful mental model known as the OODA loop (Observe. Orient. Decide. Act.) can help anyone make faster, smarter decisions under pressure.We also explore how great leaders don't chase control, they build awareness, stay flexible, and move with purpose. From the energy of the arena to the dynamics of boardrooms and creative endeavors, real-time feedback is the key to sustained high performance.If you've ever felt stuck in indecision, overwhelmed by input, or unsure how to respond in fast-moving moments, this episode offers a blueprint.It's not about wrestling. It's about reading the moment, and rising to it.Listen to the full episode with Triple H: https://pod.fo/e/2c762aHere is more information on the studies referenced: John Boyd & The OODA Loop (referenced in Psych Safety), Col. John R. Boyd, USAF
