Solomonster Sounds Off

Instead of watching Crystal Lake, I watched WWE's new "Agent of Shadows" microdrama and was regretting my life choices... I've got thoughts on that and the latest on their trip to Riyadh for Crown Jewel... Roman's speech to Sami Zayn about the importance of their two titles... a report on a possible Rey Mysterio retirement next year and pitching an idea on how to do it... Joe Hendry tells TV Insider he believes he can be a top guy in WWE... an idea for Cody Rhodes in the US title scene in 2027... the Blood and Guts teams shape up for AEW, while Jay White turns heel and his new crew gets a TERRIBLE name, only to replace it with a slightly less terrible one... MVP reacts to a report about The Hurt Syndicate and my reaction to their baffling booking this year... changes to my list of greatest stories in WWE history... and my non-spoiler CLAYFACE review!

Solomonster reviews another largely forgettable WWE Smackdown that did include ONE title change and a very good streetfight with Giulia and Blake Monroe, plus Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton get their stipulation for Crown Jewel and when CM Punk will be wrestling Kevin Owens.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite coming out of WrestleDream with the in-ring debut of Ilja Dragunov, the Young Bucks gets SQUASHED, the teams for the men's Blood & Guts match are announced, Jay White and his crew turn heel and link up with The Dogs and more.  Definitely better than many of their post-PPV episodes!

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw from San Diego with ANOTHER Roman Reigns return, this time to confront his Crown Jewel opponent in Sami Zayn, and to assist The Bloodline in fighting off the 946.  Plus, Chad Gable saves the show again with another excellent Intercontinental title defense, the Funko Pop joke that WILL NOT DIE, and Bayley pitches the stipulation for her blowoff with Lyra Valkyria.

It's been three weeks since AEW star PAC passed away and now that we know the cause of death, it just makes the story even sadder... the latest on Crown Jewel still being planned for Riyadh... WWE and Montez Ford hit with 14 COUNTS in a lawsuit claiming an "unwanted sexualized lap dance" took place on Raw and why the suit does have merit... why Carmelo Hayes joining 946 on Monday was great, and why Smackdown on Friday was NOT great... then it's my full AEW WRESTLEDREAM REVIEW with thoughts on the Clockwork Carnage main event, Ilja Dragunov's debut and thoughts on Adam Copeland announcing his retirement in 2027... plus YOUR questions on The Rock and 946, doing Roman against Oba BEFORE Wrestlemania, someone explains why they didn't like my War Games idea and who had the worse Reign of Terror, Triple H or Jeff Jarrett?

Solomonster reviews a horrendously boring two hours of television with WWE Smackdown and tries to make his review more entertaining (a low bar, indeed).

Money in the Bank last night gave us some good matches and some MADDENING booking decisions... I'm talking about the fallout from it all and the possibility of Roman Reigns as the new leader of 946 (in the mailbag)... plus, why WWE needs to move Crown Jewel OUT OF RIYADH and it's embarrassing it hasn't already been done... AEW WrestleDream PREDICTIONS including who qualifies this Wednesday for the Clockwork Carnage match... tragedy in Mexico after an elderly referee DIES in the ring taking a package piledriver... one listener calls Conrad Thompson a "bad faith actor"... great MITB winners if the concept existed in the 80s/90s... what Triple H would've been doing during the Invasion if he never tore his quad... and why Other Mommy SUCKED.
