Producer Mike gives the KayFab ladies the greatest gift of all: a whole tournament full of gimmicks! Katy, Kristina, and Sarah must choose the gimmicks that intrigue them the most if they want to find out more about the wrestlers, and Kristina must compliment Producer Mike if she wants to avoid a hefty fine!

With wrestling news sparse and Kristina back from abroad the ladies (and Producer Mike) are back with an extra long episode. We start our journey with the time traveling knock out artist, Kushida (6:25), then things take a dystopian turn with punk rock icon Luna Vachon (28:29) and finally we derail in the surprisingly eclectic career of The Road Dogg (48:40). Plus a shocking character change has the ladies questioning their feelings about sweater boys.

Wrestling means one thing: men in diapers. And awesome ladies. And body paint (sometimes). Oh, and milk trucks?! So wrestling means a lot of things, but most especially it means BELTS! In this very special KayFab episode, Kristina, Katy, and Sarah talk through the many large-ass accessories of the WWE, New Japan, and various wrestling promotions. Producer Mike put together a gorgeous and informative slide show, so of course the ladies spend most of their time talking about beer can vibes and the relative sizes of those buckles.

WrestleMania happened, but there's no time for that! The ladies briefly talk through a few of their favorite looks (Becky, the IIconics) and some of their not-so-favorite looks (John Cena WHAT). Then Katy gets into Pete Dunne and his singlet, and Kristina relates the grim but fascinating story of Bruiser Brody. Sarah adds some tie-dye levity by closing out with Dakota Kai. Plus: what should Pete Dunne wear???
