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.

On this week’s Eyes Up Here with Francine, "The Queen of Extreme" and Chad dive into the shocking rumor that WWE could be buying TNA — and what that might mean for a new war with AEW. They also tackle the whispers surrounding Women’s Champion Naomi and a possible pregnancy that could shake up the division. And if that wasn’t enough, paparazzi photos of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon’s vacation leak online — but instead of love, the internet fired back with harsh criticism. From backstage business bombshells to personal scandals, Francine has plenty to say in this can’t-miss episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
When you think of wrestling power players, names like Tony Khan or Triple H come to mind. But behind the scenes, one man is quietly shaping the industry more than anyone else — Rocky Romero. From opening the Forbidden Door to forging relationships between AEW, NJPW, CMLL, and countless promotions worldwide, Romero's influence stretches across continents. In this episode, I break down how this in-ring veteran turned backstage mastermind is redefining professional wrestling's future.
This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash sits down with Sean Oliver and opens up about the toll of endless travel, film shoots that collapse before they even start, and the kind of business dealings that make you wonder how anyone keeps their sanity. The conversation doesn't stay surface level for long—it turns into a raw look at the grind, the frustration, and the strange balance of chasing opportunity while trying not to get taken for a ride From movie productions falling apart in Syracuse to Comic Con appearances overseas, Kevin pulls the curtain back on what it really feels like when you're promised one thing but handed something very different. Money, contracts, and broken deals aren't just business—they're battles over respect, loyalty, and how much your name is worth in a world that rarely plays fair But the episode isn't just about numbers and negotiations. There are detours into locker rooms that smelled like desperation, NBA salaries that make today's contracts look surreal, and even Brett Hart invoking Kevin's name in ways that spark a whole new discussion about loyalty and perception inside the wrestling world As the talk deepens, Nash lays bare his complicated relationship with WWE, what kept him loyal longer than he expected, and the point at which loyalty turns into leverage. Questions about who should lead the company in the future, whether Sean Michaels could ever step into Triple H's shoes, and how friendships change the way business gets done all find their way into the mix By the time the conversation wraps, you're left with more than just stories. You're left with a glimpse into the psychology of contracts, the unspoken cost of fame, and the kind of perspective that only comes from surviving decades at the top of two industries that chew people up.

It seems as if an old trick out of the Vince McMahon playbook has reared its ugly head once again, but this time, in the form of Karrion Kross organically getting over with the fans. On Episode 438 of the YLP Podcast, Mr. YLP breaks down the very moment he believes, was the beginning of the end of Kross's second run in WWE. He discusses why Paul "Triple H" Levesque may have either allowed or made the foolish decision not to do right by the fans, and who he thinks could be the next man or woman beginning their descent on the card. Also on this week's episode of the pod, Mr. YLP brings back his "News Of The Week" segment, including news on Melina saying that she would like to see WWE Evolution become an annual event, WWE allegedly trying to put AEW out of business by the end of their current contract with Warner Bros.
