Swerve Strickland's career so far has been so varied and prolific, that he has more than earned his status as a main event player. In this episode, we go over his early life, his start in wrestling, the indie days, Lucha Underground and his runs in WWE and AEW.

To cap off our short stint for Hispanic Heritage Month, we focus on one of the most iconic matches that took place in Arena Mexico. Atlantis vs Villano III from 2000. the Mask vs Mask match. We give our opinions, thoughts and final ratings on this classic.

Back into the swing of things with Hispanic Heritage Month as we cover the life and career of our most endearing subject on the podcast: KeMonito! The start, the legend, the memes. We cover it all on this episode. This one is for MeleeHellBot

So hey. We were gone a while weren't we? But we are all glad to say we are back and happier than ever. This episode is a very frank conversation about the where, the why and what we'll be doing moving forward. From us four, we cannot thank you enough for asking how we have been during this time and when we would come back. Let's get back to tuning up the band once more!

Sweet Chinwag is back for June and for our celebration of Pride Month! This month, we're taking a look at our favourite wrestlers in the LGBT+ community and our favourite moments.

We go over her early life, career and highlights from SHIMMER all the way to her time in WWE and AEW. All of that, plus the week's news in wrestling.

Hey everyone, massive apologies for no episode this week. Technical glitches and fatigue set in in one form or another for all of us. So rather than keep you in the dark we wanted to update you on matters as well as give you all recommendations for the corner. We'll be back this time next week with a brand new episode and our 5 year anniversary!

Welcome to a brand new Sweet Chinwag project, Prime Time Chinwag! A watch along series where we invite a guest to watch absolutely anything and everything wrestling or non-wrestling and have a laugh!

So the wrestling world is now in a very weird place, especially coming from the fallout of WrestleMania 41. Rather than going with a subject, the chaps are joined by a returning Andos and a debuting El Balisong as we go over the week's news and our thoughts on 'Mania and the fallout from it. It's quite the different episode, so sit back and hopefully listen in.

We've already done an episode about the wider world of wrestling merch, but by golly does WWE know how to stick the WrestleMania logo on stuff and sell it to you! So for this episode to wrap up the road to WrestleMania, the chaps come up with their favourites and not so favourites of 'Mania Merch! All of that, plus a slightly condensed news segment!

Real Sexy Hot Guys. That is one of the many ways to describe a group of peeps who have made countless laugh with their antics. A little different to our usual fare as Sam is joined by video editing maestro CMOrigins to discuss why we love the nL to Riordan. We go over a brief history, the members, the guests, the videos and the moments. All that plus WrestleMania predictions!

Dwayne Johnson has had a prolific career on the silver screen and none come more iconic than his role in the seminal classic, The Tooth Fairy!

All that plus the week's news in wrestling. Oh and Sweet Chinwag has a new merch store! Old and new designs all available on sweetchinwag-shop.fourthwall.com

It is widely considered one of the greatest matches WWE has put on and even in the grander scale of Pro Wrestling. Bret Hart and Steve Austin created that fabled thing in the industry known as magic that night in Illinois and put on a classic. On this episode and in an incredible turn of luck and timing, we review the first match to be inducted in the Hall of Fame! All that plus the week's news!

WrestleMania season is back and it's about time we looked at one of the tentpole moments in the Attitude Era. But there was a lot more going on than Stone Cold's coronation. Matches, rivalries and silliness ensue in this review of the 1998 'Mania! All of that, plus the week's news in wrestling.

Scotland's favourite son and once proclaimed as The Ch-ch-ch-chosen One! Drew McIntyre was one of the biggest, figurative and literally, prospects that came out of the 2000's UK and Ireland Wrestling scene. He managed to get his foot in the door at WWE and rather than keep it there, he booted it down and came swinging with a giant sword! On this episode, the chaps look on the long journey of Drew's career, leading him to his start and 3MB to his release, return and redemption to the top of WWE's Main Event scene. All of that, plus the week's news in wrestling!

Some wrestling matches you just watch and go... Hell yeah. Kurt Angle and Shawn Michaels first meeting at WrestleMania 21 is absolutely one of those matches. For another Match Focus episode, we give Riordan the reigns as we discuss what is widely considered one of the greatest matches at the showcase of the immortals. We also discuss the build up and what this match meant for us three. All that, plus the week's news!

We all know about the main guy of the first season of NXT and the driving force of the Nexus in Mr 1.9 Seconds Michael Tarver. But did you know that this man's career lasted far longer and wider than any of us knew? We're joined by The Good, The Bad & The Bruv's Wyatt, a leading expert in all things Tarver to discuss his influence on the modern wrestling landscape! Watch out, this one will blow your mind! (Psst, if you didn't know, you're not meant to take this episode seriously! Normal programming will resume next week. - Sam)

The day has finally come. The impossible has been made possible. Dogs and cats are living together. MASS HYSTERIA! John Cena, the constant of wrestling became a heel for the first time in 23 years! It's such a huge piece of news that we had to create a separate bumper news episode for this occasion. This is part of a special two episode release this week, so stay tuned for your regular programming later this week!

We're gremlins here at the Sweet Chinwag... Well two of us are at least! And when Dan suggested this episode, it only seemed fitting to have Dan be the one to present. We go over the advent of hardcore and deathmatch promotions in Japan and the influence they had on US promotions as ECW shut it's doors in 2001, the US promotion's history and matches you should watch. All of that, plus the week's news in pro wrestling!

Edge and Lita became part of the most notable and infamous stories in WWE. 2005 and 2006 were theirs for the taking as they reached their zeniths in the industry. But let's be honest, it all came from some VERY questionable story decisions! We're going over the start, the messy middle and what happened to end it all on this episode. All of that plus Kendrick's victory lap!

So we were approached by our good friend Andos, along with artist PuzzledOrca with an idea... For the pair of them to convince us that Wisconsin has secretly been a great, if not the greatest state for Pro Wrestling. They talk about the wrestlers who came from the state, the influential moments in wrestling history that emanated from there as well as the cheese. So much cheese! All of that, plus the week's news in wrestling!
