We discuss Darby Allin's run as AEW World Champion so far. Has it been a success or failure? Are people overreacting? Plus, we look at the build to Double or Nothing and the card so far.

Then we transition to some thoughts on the recent WWE releases, the post WrestleMania booking direction so far, the prospective WWE Backlash card, and more.

We end the show with Jesse springing a few fun historical wrestling questions on Ryan and Justin which evolves into a nice discussion that could turn into a future episode down the line.
