  • E161 | Give'm a Couple of Crayons

    14 JUN. 2024 · With WWE NXT beating AEW Dynamite in the ratings this week, Jeff and Steve take a hard look at what AEW is doing wrong and what NXT is doing right. From having younger, athletically focused talent to their recent crossover with TNA, NXT appears to have all the momentum. What are some things AEW can improve upon to stop the ratings nosedive? The boys also bring you their WWE Clash at the Castle predictions; review the results of NXT Battleground, discuss when Brock Lesnar might return, talk about Liv Morgan almost gets a mustache ride, and wake wrestling fans up to why Samantha Irvin can make her own decisions. All this plus we open up the mailbag to answer a question about The Bloodline booking and take it into a direction not many people seem to be talking about.

They also provide the news from around the world of wrestling, including breakdowns of ratings and trends. This show also provides unique deep dives into the legal and financial aspects of wrestling, including contracts, intellectual property, and legal disputes.

Guests include Hollywood big shots, world champion martial artists, clergy, alternative theorists, and podcasters from around the world. There’s a special obsession with pan cultural commonalities, current and from the distant past.
