It's our Survivor Series War Games Reaction 2023 reaction show!

It's a packed show, yet again, with the return of most of the Ring Crew! Colin talks AEW Full Gear, and then joins Lex, Jose and John in taking our tee-up of Survivor Series in directions even we didn't expect!

November 11, 2023 was a huge day for Ringside Heat as Lex got the opportunity to help out with media at the Great Canadian Wrestling double header from Harmony Creek Community Centre, which is now lovingly called the "GCW Arena!" And there were two former WWE Women's Champions in the arena: Victoria and Madusa, who were on hand to sign replicas of their Titles which will be raffled off to support Simcoe Hall Settlement House!

Along with the honor of calling play-by-play for both shows' matches, Lex got a chance to interview a whole slew of people involved with the show:

GCW's promoter David Wyldstar
GCW W.I.L.D Champion Beaa Moss (the most decorated female wrestler on the Ontario Independent Scene)
"The Great One" John Atlas
Brother Yates of the Saved Boys
Jessie Mack (of My Hardcore Romance)
Sental
Michael Drukarsh, GCW Photographer
Referee Egan Price
Love Guns (Andrew Love and Iron Cowboy Gunnar Lang)

It's a 2 man crew, as Host and Producer Lex Tan and Wrestling Memorabilia Expert Chico Nuguid discuss the results and implications of WWE Crown Jewel!

We also give a big shout out to all the great work David Wyldstar, Pop Culture Canada, and Great Canadian Wrestling are doing with their wrestling shows and charity initiatives... including the raffling off of two replica title belts signed by two WWE Hall-of-Famers, Madusa/Alundra Blayze and Victoria/Tara, who will also be in the GTA for the weekend! Go to gcwe.ca and popculturecanada.ca to learn more how you could add these prestigious belts to your collection!

Ringside Heat's Lex Tan, Colin Dodge, Chico Nuguid, and John Dawson are joined by indpendent wrestler Ty "AC Fitz" Collins and independent referee Daniel "Egan Price" Dart, as we talk about ring psychology from a fan', wrestler's and referee's perspective! We also chat about Sting''s announcement of his final run... And in a conversation we had during the break, there might be a debut sometime soon for a new heel manager in the Ontario wrestling scene! Listen to the extended podcast version of Episode 110 right here!

The usual gang of Lex, Chico, Colin, and John were joined by two special guests: Independent wrestler Ty "AC Fitz" Collins, and independent referee Egan Price. We had such a fun convo for the radio that we had to continue it, so you know what that means: BONUS CONTENT!

We have an extended conversation about one of those "leave one wrestler out of history" memes online... who would we have chosen?

The answers may surprise you!

Here's part of the conversation we ran out of time for on the air!

Lex, Jose, and Colin chat about the difficulties of the oft-used wrestling trope of taking shoot, real life events, whether they are personal issues or events that affect the world at large, and incorporating them into the kayfabe.

Does wrestling get a pass? And why does it get a pass? Should it get a pass?

Where has it been done right? Where has it been done wrong?

The Tuesday Night War between WWE NXT and AEW Dynamite "Title Tuesday" had over 1 and a half million wrestling fans tune in to programming between WWE and AEW, giving the linear broadcast audience the chance to experience a bit of what made wrestling in the late 1990's so fun, as WWE and AEW put their best feet forward to "give the people what they want:" An aweome night of wrestling.

Lex, Jose and Colin break down and discuss what happened before, during, and after the show... with a certain conversation about AEW President Tony Khan's social media usage and how that affects him and the company he owns!

On this heated episode of Ringside Heat, Lex, Colin, Jose and John continue the conversation about Adam Copeland, known in WWE as "Edge."

The Ring Crew rant and debate about dismissed reactions of the fanbase: The way Copeland handled his move to AEW, his social media comments, and the reaction of the youngest members of the fanbase; young children who became fans of Edge in the past 3 years who honestly felt betrayed, especially with the way he said goodbye to WWE in Toronto back in August.

(Recorded on September 30th, 2023) It's the day before AEW WrestleDream, the tribute show to wrestling great Antonio Inoki, who passed away a year ago. But speculation is a big story for this weekend as the wrestling world anticipated the arrival of Adam Copeland (aka Edge) in AEW.

Lex, Colin, and Chico form the triple threat Ring Crew as we discuss the factors and possibilities of Adam Copeland working on and with All Elite Wrestling (before he eventually debuted!) to make it three people named Adam on the AEW roster

Also, listen for a bunch of usages of the name "Sexton Hardcastle"
