After a month off, we're back with our Fall Premiere!

On this episode, Lex, Colin and Chico talk about Freedom and Control in wrestling - a delicate balance everywhere else in life, but particuarly tough in wrestling. We explore this in AEW WrestleDream's main event of Jon Moxley vs Darby Allin, featuring a waterboarding segment, Mercedes Mone's "belt collector" run with 12 titles now wrapped around her, and the rumors of non-compete clauses in WWE lasting up to a full year!

Lex sits down with actor, producer, director, and photographer, Vinnie Salvador, as they chat about his and his family's experience at AEW All Out in the private box at Scotiabank Arena. Along with giving his thoughts on the matches on the card, Vinnie also talks about being able to share the experience of watching Adam Copeland and Jay Reso together in years, and sharing that moment with his son during his first ever AEW show.

They analyze how on one end, Tony Khan has done a good job keeping fans live in the arena happy with ticket and merch pricing, but also still needs to learn how to not exhaust the fans before the main event!

We talk about her journey from wrestling in Australia, to wrestling in Ontario, as well as her influences growing up in wrestling and integrating her musical influences into her wrestling persona! And, she sings an impromptu cover of "Baby One More Time" with Lex on the guitar!

It's the fallout from WWE SummerSlam and its first ever 2-night event! Lex and Chico break down the two nights of wrestling offered by WWE in their traditional home base of the New York/New Jersey area in the northeast USA. We also talk about the role and ethics of journalism as a tool to serve kayfabe, in the light of Seth ROllins' "Ruse of the Century!"

Amidst the pockets of negativity surrounding the news of the death of one the greatest professional wrestlers, and the first global superstar pro wrestler, Hulk Hogan, Lex and Chico wish to add to the positive side of the conversation by remembering the good that Hulk Hogan brought to the wrestling industry and the world amidst his imperfections.

Lex and Chico talk about WWE Evolution in the radio portion of the show, where they praise the women's divisions of RAW, SmackDown and NXT for what could have been the show of the weekend. They discuss the results and their implications and Triple H's comments when he was asked if an all-women's PLE could be in the cards for WWE's future.

In Bonus Content, Lex and Chico talk about TNA Slammiversary, especially with the conflict circulating around the wrestling community of TNA's men's and women's divisions world titles currently in the hands of NXT superstars, and how it actually is NOT WWE trying to bury the company that to compete with them straight out of the Monday Night War!

Somehow, Lex and Colin got through an entire 6 hours of AEW All In Texas and still were able to record their post-show thoughts in radio and podcast form!

What was good and great about the show? How did a card of less than 10 matches change the dynamic of a major AEW PPV especially during a 6 hour show?

Was Colin correct about his "Gore for the sake of gore" reservations for the Jon Moxley-Adam Page match? How much did it contribute or take away from the match that saw Page finally get back the title after his first run ended 3 years ago?

It's AEW All-In Texas Week and Lex and Colin breakdown the milestone shows of AEW Dynamite 300 and AEW Collilsion!

We also tee up what we're looking forward to on the main show on Saturday, and why Colin has concerns with the new stipulation added to the AEW World Championship match between Hangman Adam Page and Jon Moxley!

Lex, Colin and Chico talk about the John Cena "Pipebomb" response to CM Punk's original Pipebomb from nearly 14 years ago! Colin brings us up to speed on AEW Grand Slam Mexico and what that sets up for AEW All In Texas. And what do we think about Kevin Nash's recent comments praising LA Knight with a bit of a caveat, as well as if WWE Night of Champions, especially the Cena-Punk Championship match should really be in Saudi Arabia or on American/Canadian soil?

Lex goes solo (not Sikoa) on this episode and flaps his little gums (thank you, Stone Cold!) about these topics:

1) Why Lex did not hate Gunther's World Heavyweight Championship win; what could have been done for both Jey and Gunther; Not being happy about Goldberg making his way back into WWE for a retirement match!

2) The lawsuit filed against Jon Moxley and AEW: On what grounds is it warranted? On what grounds is it frivolous? How it can be seen as just, and how can it be seen as overblown?

3) What's next for Elayna Black, as she "deletes" her WWE persona and begins a new run in the indies? Will she be able to build her character in a way that couldn't be done in WWE?

(Originallly broadcast on June 11, 2025) Lex and Colin talk AEW Summer Blockbuster, and what matches they are looking forward to!

Lex admits he's been had by Kayfabe 2.0 yet again with the release and re-hiring of Ron "The Truth" Killings, effectively shelving the "R-Truth" gimmick, as he looks like he's going to continue to factor into the John Cena storyline. How much of it was real? How much of it was a work?

Colin and Lex debate about John Cena's half-way point in the final run of his career!

R-Truth has been released by WWE and lots of people are upset, including the WWE Superstars, and our own Lex Tan! Lex tries to live, laugh, and love through this decision by WWE, but also is confounded to no end why they would let Truth go after 17 years! Lex also lines up WWE/AAA Worlds Collide and WWE Money In the Bank!

AEW Double or Nothing... WWE Saturday Night's Main Event and NXT Battleground... TNA Under Siege, TNA Impact and the Canada-United States Border Brawl! 5 big shows by the three major wrestling promotions in North America. Sure, that is a lot of shows fighting for eyes and ears, but isn't that the mark of a healthy industry? Lex Tan and Colin Dodge discuss what they enjoyed, what they're critical of and how this will play into the summer circuit of shows for the big 3! 

We're back!!!

Lex and Chico remember #Sabu: Chico talks Sabu's legacy, and Lex shares about meeting him at Greektown Wrestling! We also talk MLPW Northern Rising at Maple Leaf Gardens/Mattamy Athletic Centre, and we preview #TNA Under Siege and #AEW's return to Toronto in September!

It's that time of year again... hearts broken, dreams coming to an end... yup it's WWE Layoff season! Lex and Chico tag team to talk about the releases, and who were the ones that were most confounding!

Chico also rants about the inconsistency and infuriating actions of one Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson over the past few months with his role (AND lack thereof) in the John Cena heel turn in Toronto and Cody Rhodes' story!

They also tee up WWE Backlash and talk in more details about Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling: Northern Rising at Maple Leaf Gardens!

It's Jose's final show! Lex, Colin, Chico and the man of the hour reminisce about Jose's tenure, contributions, his favorite memories of the industry and being on the show!

We banter about why the TLC match on SmackDown featuring DIY vs Motor City Machine Guns vs The Street Profits wasn't included on the WrestleMania card and was put on a regular TV taping instead!

And we look forward to two big shows for the Canadian wrestling fan coming in May: TNA Wrestling: Under Siege in Brampton and Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling at Maple Leaf Gardens!

Lex, Jose, Chico and Colin gather their thoughts and analyze WrestleMania 41 from Las Vegas, Nevada! What did they initally think of the show as it aired, and did a couple of days removed from the event and the ability to digest the two-night pro wrestling extravaganza change their minds? What were their thoughts on the two big triple threat matches? What about their thoughts on the 17-time World Champion, John Cena? Why couldn't we smell what The Rock was cooking? How did Dominik Mysterio go from being drowned out by boos to being cheered by WWE Universe?

It's the most wonderful time of the year... for wrestling fans!!! WrestleMania 41 weekend is finally upon us! Lex, Colin, Jose and Chico run down the two night WrestleMania 41 card, make their predictions and fantasy booking speculations on the 13 announced matches on the cards heading into the 4 night extravaganza of pro wrestling! Who wins? Who loses? Who gets over, and who goes over? The Super Bowl wishes it could be WrestleMania!!!
