Back Through The Ropes

We're back!  Last episode was our one year anniversary so we're calling this our season premier! (If WWE can suddenly have season premiers, why can't we?) Alot has changed in in the last month. Two WWE pay-per-views; AEW All Out and the upcoming premier of AEW: Dynamite; NXT moved to the USA network; Impact finally has stability and is moving to AXS.  It's a great time to be a wrestling fan, and the boys have tons to talk about!

It's our first anniversary so we're doing something a little bit different.  This week we have a special guest: Danny's brother Nick.  The last time Nick was a fan of wrestling Jake the Snake, Randy Savage, Junkyard Dog, and Hulk Hogan were the big names.  We sit down with him to watch a couple classic matches (and a couple not so classic), see what he thinks of them, and play a few rounds of Name-that-wrestler.

Normally we try to keep our language in check, but this episode has more than our normal amount of profanity, so listener discretion is advised.

It's time for the second biggest WWE PPV of the year, and according to them, the biggest party of the summer.  Danny and Two-Bit run down the Summerslam card and talk predictions.

They also discuss some video game news, AEW's women's battle royal at All Out, and answer a Q&A question from the facebook page!

The boys are going back in time once again and doing a review of Summerslam 2004.  This was the last time Summerslam was held in Toronto.  This was before John Cena became the icon that he is today, JBL was still champion, and Randy Orton was trying to capture his first world title.  Even with a couple controversial matches with crazy storylines, this still managed to be solid PPV.  

We also quickly talk about the announcement of AEW's on TNT in October, thoughts on the G1, Extreme Rules, RAW Reunion, and the return of Bray Wyatt as the fiend!

We're back after a little break and playing catch up with what is going on currently in WWE.  Has the product improved since our last episode?  What are our predictions for Extreme Rules? We also give our thoughts on how we think AEW is doing after their third show.

On the last episode, we were talking about all the positive things we could find in wrestling.  The power of positivity was strong with us!  While it's still a great time to be a wrestling fan, things have not gotten any better for the WWE main roster shows.  Whether it's the quality of the writing, the misuse of talent, or that two old men went into a ring in 100 degree heat and concussed each other, quality is at the lowest point it has been in a while and Danny and Two-Bit need some time to rant about.  But there is light at the end of the tunnel.  AEW Fyter Fest is on the way!... and Impact TV has been alot of fun lately!   See, there are some good things happening out there!

We're back after a break, and there's lots to catch up on.  The boys talk about AEW Double or Nothing, NXT Takeover XXV , and about what they think is positive about what is happening on the WWE main roster (yes there's a lot of negatives things happening, but lets try and be constructive....I know it's difficult lately)

Two-Bit makes his highly anticipated return, and there's alot to catch up on.  The boys talk the WWE superstar shakup and wildcard rule, make some predictions about Money in the Bank, talk about what's happening with AEW and Impact, and question who really wants to see Goldberg in the ring again?

Hey Back Through the Ropes listeners, it's been a while.  We've had some scheduling conflicts so we couldn't get an episode produced in a few weeks, and we've been fighting off a nasty Post-Wrestlemania Hangover.  But Danny's back with a wrap up of the last few weeks events, thoughts on 'Mania, the superstar shakeup, and what things look like going into Money in the Bank.  Also he gives his thoughts on the announcement of Cody's opponent for Double or Nothing, and some plans for the podcast going forward!

The end of the Road to Wrestlemania is in sight.  With that comes the triumphant return of special guest host Khanida!  She's back helping Danny with some Wrestlemania predictions.  They run through the card together, give their thoughts on each match, and who they want to win and who they think will actually come out on top.
