The MxL Swapcast Network

This is the MXL SwapCast Network, a series of DIY podcasts about Wrestling. Starting out as Dave @ The Wrestling, the random musings of an chap called Dave, said eloquent idiot joined forces with Iwan to form MXL SwapCast, which took the world by light drizzle in 2019. After 18 episodes, a few specials and other random bollocks, MXL ceased in June 2020 following general pessimism in the wrestling world making a generally bright podcast like theirs rather grim and full of despair. MXL returned to

"Luke Jacobs, Take a Fuckin' Bow, Lad!" Episode three of MXL Live Journal sees Dave and New Tim Horton's Mug Owner Iwan reporting on Revolution Pro Wrestling's first foray in Birmingham in many years. The main event of this rather loaded card pitted former British Heavyweight Champion vs. former British Cruiserweight Champion, as The Aerial Assassin, Will Ospreay, battled North West Strong's Luke Jacobs... and trust us, it was a BATTLE. Other highlights of this seven-match bill saw a cracking

"Shit Zak Dingle's Revenge..." In 2019, a group of silly sausages decided to give the world of wrestling awards. And it was all the lols. In 2022, the same group of sausages decided to give this awards gimmick another try. And here are the results! Kieron "Lucky" Smith, also known as Shit Zak Dingle, joins Dave and a host of panelists (*note: Iwan was "fashionably late" on day of recording...) to announce fifty-four awards. Some of the Best, some of the Blurst, and many in between. Some results were

In a change of pace from the Live Journals we've been doing at MXL, Iwan and Dave sit down in the SkypeCaff to go a little more deep dive on the show we're talking about here - UKPW's second Blizzard Brawl event taking place in Falconwood on Saturday February 18th 2023. We get the analysis of a loaded card, from the main event "South East Derby" for the UKPW Inter-Regional Championship between defending champion Safire Reed and former longest reigning champion Danny Black, to Women's Champion Kira

PURPOSE Wrestling, back for the first time since October, hopes to leave its less-than-lucky 2022 behind and start 2023 on the right foot with Friday, I'm In Love. Iwan and Dave are joined by Our Leighton, Liam, Mark, Chris and Adam Lewis (a veritable gallery of rogues, you'll agree!) and the team gives their instant reactions to the

NB: Super heavy content ahead. Just when the wrestling landscape couldn't get any more dreary, it sure did last week. Iwan and Dave are guestless on an edition of the Swapcast for the first time in a while. And this second part of Episode 16 of the Swapcast comes off the heels of the tragic passing of Hana Kimura at the age of just 22 on May 23rd. Our hosts, not so much as podcasters, more in the position as wrestling fans heartbroken at the loss of one of their favourite wrestlers, discuss the

NB: Heavy content ahead. Iwan and Dave are joined by Liam Stephens on the first of a two-part episode of the Swapcast (all will be evident as to why this is a two-parter in, well, part two...), and it's a tough week in the annals of wrestling, with a very high profile death, another death that almost slipped under the radar but didn't thanks to Iwan, two retirements of wrestlers who made fans of both Iwan and Dave in the past, not to mention a brief chat about the legacy of the late great Owen Hart,

Yep, a day early for this week's dose of #Swapcast action, you lucky people! Truth is, we're bloody knackered and need a rest, lol... Your co-hosts Iwan Mackenzie and Dave Lovell are joined by Liam Stephens (actually described as "haemorrhoids that administer their own Preparation H") and Captain Markout himself, Adam Dean, and the lads discuss the news, climbing the corporate ladder, plus the debut of a new segment (and maybe a spin-off pod in the making) as the lads talk about #GrapsMeets!

Two years on from witnessing Europe's biggest ever women's wrestling event, Iwan and Dave watch one of the best shows of 2018, if not the best. But they're not alone. They're joined by regular pain in the arse Liam Stephens, and also by two debuting guests. Both Andy Ogden (he of that Graps and Claps Audio fame!) and Adam Dean (he's really good at marking out) were also there live, and share their insight into that sizzling evening on May 5th 2018.

Two years ago, EVE (celebrating their 10th birthday in May 2020) presented their first WrestleQueendom show at the historic York Hall.

On this edition of the Swapcast Commentaries, we go Full Rippy~!. Iwan and Dave, ably assisted by the execrable shitlord himself, Liam Stephens, go to the South Coast as RIPTIDE Wrestling is given the Swapcast Commentary treatment. A breezy hour and a half in duration, this is a jewel in the crown of RIPTIDE's debut year of 2017, and you can certainly see the foundations of what would turn this promotion into the true Pride of Brighton just a couple of years later. It's also a favourite promotion of

We've honestly been threatening to do this for ages, so here it is. An empty Korakuen Hall is the venue for one of the more interesting events not just in the history of STARDOM, but wrestling in general. This edition of Swapcast Commentaries sees Iwan and Dave, again joined by Liam Stephens, witnessing one of the better Empty Arena shows in the year 2020 - the new era of empty arena shows. Even with the relatively entry-level knowledge of joshi (and by Liam's own admission, the English language)
