Podcasts about wrestling observer

Do you remember where you were when the future of wrestling arrived? It was May 29th, 2014. The event was simply called… TakeOver. The very first one. A show that wasn't just another PPV; it was a statement. A declaration that the next generation was here, and they were ready to steal the show. On the new episode of Legends and Champions, we're doing a deep dive into this historic night. We're talking about the match that truly kickstarted the Women's Revolution: Charlotte Flair versus Natalya, with their legendary family members at ringside. A match that laid the foundation for everything that came next. Plus, we'll dissect the incredible main event that put the NXT Championship on the map—Adrian Neville versus Tyson Kidd in a breathtaking athletic contest. We explore the moments, the legacy, and the birth of the brand that would define an era of wrestling.

Last week, wrestlers, fans, and friends of Ron Killings all expressed their disappointment and shock at the news that TKO/WWE failed to come to an agreement to keep Ron Killings, aka R-Truth, on the roster. After a groundswell of #WeWantTruth on social media began taking over live audiences at wrestling shows, including WWE TV, it appears as though the company has pulled a 180 and reached a new deal with the beloved veteran.

We're back for another look at some of the biggest conversations around professional wrestling, a week after WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.  The big question following the last week - was John Cena v. Cody Rhodes "one of the WORST WrestleMania main events of all time"?  According to our regular contributor, the Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer?  Yes. Mike McGuire walks you through the news, but we look to dive into this dubious distinction for a match, including Dave's own response to the statement. Plus, from the Legends and Champions podcast, Stefan Bennett and Mike compare EVERY WrestleMania main event match to show that maybe Cena/Rhodes wasn't the WORST.
