About this listen
We’re back and catching up on all the graps! Join us as we discuss AEW Dynamite (January 21) and Collision (January 24), as well as the Maximum Carnage shows from the previous week. We also talk CMLL’s International Weekend (January 17-19), Ring of Honor, and some great indie moments.
[02:56] Clearing the air about TNA Impact: our take on secondhand reviews, the wrestling ecosystem, and what network executives might be thinking. Relatedly…
[08:28] Ring of Honor: big things are afoot?! Two upcoming Global Wars events, tons of new signings, vague talk from TK, and what it takes to preserve a crumbling landmark (literally).
[17:57] AEW Dynamite: all the storylines, including important context from the previous week’s Maximum Carnage events. First, we talk MJF vs. Bandido and the indie events they worked at Limitless and Warrior Wrestling two days later. (Alec Price & Jordan Oliver are ALL ELITE!!!) Then: we all want Horsec*ck, Don Callis takes advantage of our collective Kenny Omega deprivation kink, and Mina Shirakawa gets yeeted a little too far. Kat goes on a tirade about dirtsheets and coy spoilers, and Adam delivers Death Riders/DCF analysis you won’t find anywhere else.
[1:04:03] AEW Collision: again, with context from Maximum Carnage! We’re grooving to the new theme music like the cheesy dance kids we are. The pros and cons of throwing together an event on short notice, the Ted Cruz Waffle House Index, Hangman contends with the monster Speedball created, intergender trios titles (!), enduring questions about the National title, Willow Nightingale takes on Julia Hart while Kris Statlander prepares to fend off Thekla, the world’s saddest Bang Bang Gang intro, Protoshita reunited!, a chaotic tag team recap, Darby farts around and we have opinions about it, Andrade strips for our pleasure, Roddy takes on Claudio for the CMLL Heavyweight Championship, and SOMEONE’s gotta save Poppin’ Dogs and Talkin’ Hogs.
[1:55:43] CMLL Fin de Semana Internacional: an entire long weekend of killer matches with CMLL and AEW talent! What ridiculous matchup actually made us bite the bullet and pay for the CMLL streaming subscription? Why is everyone booing Místico?
[2:02:10] Ring of Honor HonorClub: a very quick recap of a few notable matches from HonorClub #150 (January 15) and #151 (January 22). We demand a Trish Adora/Taya Valkyrie feud immediately! We demand that Rule Britannia be thrown in the trash!
[2:05:11] Coming up this week: everything we’re looking forward to from AEW, ROH, and CMLL! Plus: Bean of the Week RETURNS! now with bonus cats!
