We had some major late-breaking news that necessitated coverage: the death of Hulk Hogan. Most outlets have focused on his status as a high profile figure of wrestling and pop culture. But for many, he’s remembered as a man whose racist opinions were recorded and published; in addition to being a liar who made false claims to support his own narrative. Danielle and producer Julian deliver some quick thoughts in the aftermath of his passing. 

Then, Lindsey, Hal and Danielle discuss why the build to Summerslam has felt so weak lately. Where has WWE come up short as it builds to the first ever two night version of its second biggest show of the year?

The Main Event: wrestling comfort food

When we're inundated with wrestling events, sometimes it's good to take a step back and remember what made us fall in love with this crazy art in the first place. 

The Three Count:

Danielle put over Unreal Worked Shoots.

Lindsey put over Nia and Tiffy Barbies.

Hal put over The downside of Worked Shoots.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Lindsey Kelk, and Danielle Radford.

Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
