Cassock Club

In this episode the Club prepares for this weekend's Survivor Series - and the latest battle for the prestigious Golden Cincture and the bragging rights that come with it - by giving their match predictions (with Matt praying that FINALLY the Cincture will come to its new home on the East Coast). Have you ever heard the phrase "phoning it in"? Well, that's pretty close to what happened as some creative editing of the episode makes up for Matt's absence due to a busier-than-usual week. As you'll see, Worth and Michael carry on valiantly despite the absence of one crucial third of this wrestling Trinity.

In this week's episode the Club introduces a new Trinity list, with each host giving their top three favorite wrestler entrance themes. Here's a secret: it was hard to pick, and the honorable mention lists include just as many great ones as the main roster - even one with some truly horrendous lyrics. Michael covers a couple of his regular segments, and it turns out that Matt's "Talkin' Tech" wasn't quite as short-lived as we anticipated. Speaking of Matt, he's a little bitter about losing out on the Golden Cincture again and threatens a new podcast faction to change things in his direction. With all of this, by the end we hear that it's all Worth It (yes, that's intentionally capitalized, and you'll hear why).

In this week's episode the Club rejoices as Michael puts the Golden Cincture on the line for Saturday's AEW Full Gear Pay per View, and they respond by sharing their picks for the match card. Apparently, the feeling that Matt was broken in last week's episode takes an even sharper turn when Michael and Worth hear some pretty broken picks. How broken? Let's just say Stone Cold would have gone hoarse with saying "What?" over and over again. There's also the usual talk about international wrestling and the indies, and we roll out a new (and perhaps short-lived) "Talkin' Tech" segment.

On one of the most important days of the church calendar, the Club listens to Michael rejoice over recapturing the Golden Cincture and talk about how all of heaven and earth (in this case, his shower, floor and refrigerator) are rejoicing about this news. Why? #justcause. We also have fun with a first-time event, a watch along of a classic (and we use that term loosely) match from the 1991 Halloween Havoc pay per view. Michael covers his Heat of the Week, Talkin' Indies and International Minute segments, and we roll out a brand new segment: Mailbag Minute, in which we answer listener mail (yes, we were surprised, too!).

In anticipation of the next battle for the Golden Cincture, the Club this week rolls out their picks for Hell in a Cell. (Spoiler: Matt's contrarian picks mean he will either win running away or finish a very distant third.) Worth leads another great segment of "push or bury" conversation about current wrestling angles, and Michael covers his Heat of the Week and International Minute segments. There's also a very weak attempt at a new segment that's pushed and almost immediately buried by the very person who suggests it. As always the episode is sprinkled with the Club's usual critiques and honest feedback. Oh, and Matt does a little gloating about the fact that he drafted Rhea Ripley first as his cornerstone federation pick and was justified a few days later when HHH shared his thoughts on her potential.

This week the Club takes the unprecedented step of demonstrating how they think WWE could have rolled out an incredible draft by holding their own "Build a Federation" draft. Each of the hosts offers six picks on whom they would build their own wrestling organizations, and some of their choices may surprise you. Michael covers his Talkin' Indies, Heat of the Week and International Minute segments, and as always the episode is sprinkled with the Club's usual critiques and honest feedback. At the outset, Matt has a particularly joyful shoutout to Dr. Britt Baker, DMD and we hear about a potential new seasonal wrestler. Stay tuned at the end of the episode for our first-ever recording "extra"!

This week the Club uses "Lucky Number Seven" to continue the "Trinity Series" with the unveiling of their Trinity of all-time favorite finishers and a few honorable mentions (spoiler: this was a tough one, and sadly, Chris Masters didn't make the cut). They also cover their latest "Push or Bury" storylines, and Michael gets in his Talkin' Indies and International Minute segments. As always, the episode is sprinkled with the Club's usual critiques and honest feedback, and there's a quick Spanish lesson thrown in for good measure.

This week the Club announces the new, reigning, defending holder of The Golden Cincture: The Rev. Worth Stuart, who came out on top in our Clash of Champions match picks. Despite that, The Rev. Michael Sahdev refuses to be sour and has his sights set on recapturing it at the next Pay-per-View (The Rev. Matt Rhodes is simply happy to be here and continue his shout-outs to Britt Baker, DMD). The three continue their "Trinity Series" as each reveals their top all-time Trinity of tag teams, and they roll out a new segment, "Push or Bury," a rapid-fire discussion of current wrestling angles and whether our hosts would push or bury them. Surprisingly (or not), Retribution makes more appearances in this episode than they did in recent WWE programming - but only because they haven't signed a contract with us.

This week, after a rough performance by a big weekly show of one of the major federations, The Revs. Matt Rhodes (shout out to Britt Baker, DMD), Michael Sahdev and Worth Stuart kick things off with their own verbal "retribution." There are recaps and critiques of WWE and AEW programming, Michael covers us with his weekly international and indies almost-minutes, and the three sprinkle their usual critiques throughout. In advance of Clash of the Champions, the hosts offer their predictions for the winners of each match on the card - and Worth and Matt have their eyes on taking the 10 Pounds of Gold...en Cincture away from Michael. The show's highlight is the introduction of a new segment in which each host gives their Trinity of favorite championship belts with some honorable mentions - best and worst - thrown in. And even thought he wasn't really relevant to any of the discussion, was Matt able to work in another Chris Masters reference?

This week, The Revs. Matt Rhodes, Michael Sahdev and Worth Stuart kick off with brief recaps of AEW Dynamite and WWE Raw and NXT. Michael covers us with his weekly international and indies minute, and the three sprinkle their usual critiques throughout. This week's highlight is the introduction of a new segment in which each co-host gives their Trinity (see what the priests did there?) of memorable "Oh *Bleep* Moments." Listen closely; is that a Chris Masters sighting, and what is Matt thinking? Follow us on Twitter at @CassockClub or contact us at [email protected].
