RJ City gets real about AEW

Tights and Fights ·

2025/06/28

Our beloved RJ City has finally returned to the podcast!He’s been an AEW broadcaster and personality for years now. He’ll tell us how the company has changed since his start. RJ will also explain how he and Toni Storm collaborated to create the “Timeless” character (hint: It was almost entirely here), the balance of freedom and structure that AEW has to straddle and why he thinks fans of the company could stand to be more critical of it. But since it’s RJ City, we naturally get side-tracked and

Hal Lublin makes his triumphant return and finally gets the chance to share what’s been on his mind.Specifically, the state of the World Heavyweight Championship. Has WWE effectively capitalized on Jey Uso’s popularity? And is Gunther the right person to hold the World Title in Goldberg’s presumed retirement match?Plus, with King and Queen of the Ring well underway, we continue to advocate for Jade Cargill as our winner on the women’s side and wonder who would be the right choice for the men.The

Money in the Bank 2025

2025/06/14

What a complete emotional whiplash after last week! Money in the Bank was a fine PLE that delivered some great highlights; not the least of which is Naomi as the brand new Ms. Money in the Bank! Plus, R-Truth made his short-awaited return, and has redefined himself as Ron Killings. We geek out about some of these great developments and look ahead to who we think would be a great Queen and King of the Ring.The Three Count:Lindsey put over Jey's Journal..

Money in the Bank Preview + R-truth

2025/06/07

It’s time for another big wrestling weekend! We give a full preview to Saturday’s “Worlds Collide” and Sunday’s “Money in the Bank” shows from WWE. But as we pick winners and what we expect to see… we can’t help but wonder if WWE has overplayed its hand and delivered TOO many shows. Main Event: R-Truth is no longer in WWER-Truth is no longer a WWE superstar. He's one of the most beloved members of the roster by both fans and his peers and was just part of a big match against John Cena. But it looks

Saturday Night’s Main Event + The Rock’s Entrance Music

Saturday Night’s Main Event was the start of an incredibly busy wrestling Summer. There wasn’t much in terms of titles exchanging hands, but we did see the return of Bronson Reed for Seth Rollins’ unnamed stable.Plus Cody Rhodes is back! And he set up a Money in the Bank match with him and Jey Uso vs. John Cena and Logan Paul.Rerun: The Rock’s Entrance MusicIn 2017, we broke down all of The Rock’s entrance music over the course of his career so far; everything from Rocky Maiavia to his final time as

And because of that, he’s noticed a number of shortcomings in WWE, specifically in the main event scene. He’ll explain.Plus, he’ll tell us more about what he thinks is missing from the John Cena heel turn and why he’s so optimistic about Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman’s connection.

WWE Backlash 2025

Tights and Fights ·

2025/05/17

Backlash is often regarded as the come-down show for WWE. There’s plenty to criticize; why is Gunther taking on Pat McAfee on his road back to the World Heavyweight Championship picture? And why is WWE intent on protecting Pat McAfee as an in-ring performer?Let’s not let that completely distract from the fun moments: Danielle gets to squee about Jeff Cobb fka Monster Matanza in her dearly departed Lucha Underground. And despite us being a little pessimistic going into it, John Cena vs. Randy Orton

Seth Freakin’ Rollins as the Top Guy

Backlash weekend is upon us!Five matches doesn’t inherently make for a light card, but there it is a problem when one of those matches features Pat McAfee. Between that, the women’s tag title scene and maybe a few other things, there’s reason for pessimism in WWE.But there’s also a lot to enjoy– just take a look at Chelsea Green who hasn’t let her title loss diminish her character in any way. Hopefully that continues!The Main Event: Seth Rollins as a Paul Heyman guy.Seth Rollins is one of the

We’ve barely had time to breathe after WrestleMania but on we go to Backlash.

The biggest weekend in wrestling has come and gone; and all anyone wants to talk about is how disappointed they were by that main event between Cody Rhodes and John Cena. And sure there’s disappointment between that, The Rock’s absence, and the Travis Scott of it all, there still was a lot of good too.New champions were crowned and we even had a really strong Monday Night RAW that could mean this slog we went through is only temporary.The Three Count:Danielle put over Steiner MathLindsey put over

It’s the biggest weekend in wrestling at last!And while we’d love to express our full joy at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, there’s no doubt that this build feels… a little weaker than the last few years. Maybe that’s due to the fact that the show is later on the calendar than usual; maybe it’s because WWE is focused on stars we’re less invested in. In any case, it will be a big show that will draw a lot of attention and will, hopefully, over deliver. The Three Count:Danielle put over the Great-EST
