One day Triple H will leave his role as the head of WWE's creative process- whether through choice, or otherwise, so in that scenario, who will TKO choose to replace him? Would an internal promotion, like Bruce Prichard, Shawn Michaels, Paul Heyman or Cody Rhodes be the way to go? Could TKO dip back into the McMahon well by bringing back Stephanie, or even Shane? Or would it be a more out there option- Eric Bischoff? Vince Russo?! Tony Khan!?!? That's our discussion this week. The Random Wrestling Review is brought to you this week by Stephen, Alex and Tinky.

WWE's John Cena Farewell Tour has been satisfactory: #AGREE or #DISAGREE?Has the John Cena Farewell Tour been satisfying?Heel Turn at Elimination ChamberHighlights and LetDowns of the TourSaturday Night's Main Event PredictionsWWE Saturday Night's Main Event will make the final stop this weekend for the John Cena Farewell Tour, stopping in Washington DC for his last in-ring wrestling match against Gunther, the winner of the Last Time Is Now Tournament.We're excited to welcome one of the most creative and influential figures in the history of professional wrestling, Vince Russo!

This week on Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver settle into a wild mix of stories, opinions, and observations that only these two can deliver. The episode opens with a look at the shifting landscape of TV and wrestling distribution, which sends the conversation down a path that blends media changes with Kevin's dry, cutting perspective on how the business is adapting. It sets a tone that everything is on the table today. As the show gets moving, Kevin drifts into a run of personal stories that are funny, sharp, and sometimes unbelievable. A CPAP repair visit turns into a reflection on age. A routine oil change becomes a miniature saga about wiper blades and tire pressure. Long drives in the snow transform into beer math, cops in the rearview, and Kevin explaining how 18 beers somehow equals a quarter of the way to intoxicated. These stories flow fast, and they go places only Kevin can take them.  From there, the conversation shifts into the world of wrestling. Kevin breaks down the physical reality of entrances, ring conditioning, performance rituals, and the small details most fans never get to hear. The talk deepens as they move to the mystery man from Survivor Series and the current discourse around wrestlers blowing up during matches. Kevin offers perspective that can only come from decades inside the ring and backstage.  The episode also features a run of stories about legends like Harley Race and Andre, memories from the road, and reflections on working styles across generations. There are surprising detours involving stem cell treatments, Mad Men production errors, the structure of episodic wrestling, and what happens when you find yourself backstage with wrestlers who still believe in ritual and rhythm. Every few minutes brings something new that you did not see coming.  By the end, the show swings from humor to industry insight to cultural commentary with a pace that feels effortless. Kevin and Sean move between TNA announcements, JCW talk, questions about who belongs under a hooded mask, and even a stark discussion about class and race in America. It is a heavy, hilarious, surprising, and wide ranging conversation that captures exactly why Kliq This remains one of the most unpredictable shows in wrestling media.

In this episode of the Fatal Four Way, the hosts discuss the recent acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery by Netflix, the implications for AEW and TNA, and the upcoming tournament to determine John Cena's last opponent. The conversation covers the shifting landscape of wrestling in the streaming era, the potential for TNA's growth with their move to AMC, and the excitement surrounding Cena's final match. In this episode, the hosts engage in a lively discussion about the current state of WWE, focusing on the recent Survivor Series event, roster dynamics, and the potential for future stars like Joe Hendry and Bron Breaker. They critique the over-reliance on veteran talent and the need for compelling storylines, while also speculating on Cody Rhodes' potential heel turn and the identity of a mysterious masked figure. The conversation wraps up with thoughts on Vince Russo's influence in wrestling today and the importance of engaging storytelling in the industry.

Welcome back to The Lawcast! This time our hosts cover Bragging Rights 2009, featuring the insane Randy Orton vs. John Cena Anything Goes Iron Man Match.

You're listening to the Halloween edition of Dirt Sheet Radio! Is CM Punk phoning it in? Will Jey Uso become Champion again? We've got a preview for WWE Saturday Night's Main Event! The card for AEW Full Gear begins to make itself clear as the Tag Team and World Championship matches are made official. Listen to our Dynamite Recap 10-29-30. Absolute Batman, meet Kenny Omega! Vince Russo is back in the writer's room at a professional wrestling company. Just not the one he originally wanted you to think he was at

The lights are low, the music hits different, and the stories feel a little more dangerous. We open the door to wrestling's scariest era—when monsters like Abdullah the Butcher and Bruiser Brody weren't just characters, they were walking question marks. Teddy Long and Mac revisit the moments when kayfabe felt airtight, blood looked too real, and even the locker room held its breath when certain names showed up on the board.From a hilarious, tense rib on the notoriously tough Butch Reed to the unspoken rules of receipts and respect, you'll hear how the old code worked and why it still matters. Teddy takes us back to the nights he wore the stripes for the Horsemen, the Midnight Express, and the Rock 'n' Roll Express, and how learning in that crucible shaped his journey from ring crew to SmackDown GM. Along the way, we talk about how social media changed the magic trick, why selling is a lost art when egos get loud, and how the best wrestlers make their opponents shine.We also get into today's headlines and hidden gems: Vince Russo's creative move to JCW, the real value of a WWE draft versus leadership that steadies the ship, and the community energy that's moved with us as we build this channel. Then we hand out overdue flowers to underrated women who held eras together—Molly Holly's precision and generosity, Jazz's raw credibility and strength—and why their work still teaches the craft. Expect seasonal nostalgia, candy corn slander, and plenty of live chat love as we keep the conversation honest and fun.If you enjoy the stories, hit subscribe, turn on notifications, and share this with a friend who misses when wrestling felt a little scary. Drop a comment with your pick for the scariest wrestler of all time and the most underrated woman who deserved more—let's hear your card.Send us a text
