Sorry for the low energy this week. It's been a long week and by the time we got to recording, we were exhausting. Alas, we carried on.

This week, Ben and Danny talk about Triple H stepping up as the director of 205Live, why Ben had to unfollow Vince Russo, RAW, Smackdown Live, NXT, and in this week's edition of the "No Name Game", Danny tries to guess the main events to the lowest grossing Pay-Per-Views!

The Royal Rumble has come and gone, along with the first WWE match in almost seven years to get a Five Star rating from the Wrestling Observer, so of course we're gonna talk about it. It would be silly to assume otherwise.

On this week's episode, Ben and Danny talk about NXT Takeover: Philadelphia, the Royal Rumble, the debut of "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey, RAW, Smackdown Live, 205 Live, and much more!

Sorry this episode is a little late. This week was insanely busy so I literally just finished editing this. This is fresh off the editor, so get it while it's hot!

With RAW 25 out of the way, we look forward to the Royal Rumble this Sunday, and of course we're gonna preview it you big dummy! We're also going to talk about RAW 25 (and why Ben believes Taker is TRULY done), Smackdown Live, 205 Live, and preview NXT Takeover: Philadelphia. And yes, we talk about Enzo. We don't cover the XFL because this was recorded before the news dropped. Sorry. But listen anyways because there's a prize at the end!

RAW 25 and the Royal Rumble are right around the corner, which means we're finally on the road to WrestleMania! Even though next week will be loaded, not much happened this week, except for a title change and some mind blowing new WWE signees, so your hosts Danny and Ben are here to talk about it all! They're also going to discuss RAW, which includes arguably the greatest hour of RAW in all of recorded history), Smackdown Live, 205Live, NXT, and the first episode of the Mixed Match Challenge!

Here it is! Our first official episode of 2018...and it kinda sucks. Sorry about that. We have to get back into the swing of things. It's also one of our shortest episodes, so you have no excuses not to listen to it!

On this week's episode, Ben and Danny talk RAW, Smackdown Live, the Mixed Match Challenge, NXT, and they spend way too long trying to figure out if the Hammerstein Ballroom is a part of the Manhattan Center (spoiler alert: it is.)Also, where did Braun Strowman find a grappling hook!? All that and more, on Southern Smackdown!

On this mini episode of Southern Smackdown, we present to you our first interview of 2018! We traveled to AWE in Marietta, Georgia on December 27th to chat with our good friend, one of the hottest up-and-coming independent wrestlers today, Mr. O'Shay Edwards! He talks about how he got started in the business, how his football experience bled into his wrestling style, how he knows me and Danny, and what he has planned for 2018 and who he wants to wrestle at some point (Jeff Cobb being one of them). It's a fascinating insight into the world of indy wrestling, and you may learn a thing or two, so tune in!

The following podcast episode is a compilation of audio tracks we recorded while watching the live broadcast of Wrestle Kingdom 12. We give our by the minute immediate results. We're also very tired, which makes it an interested listen. Even as of now, I (Ben the editor) have yet to get a good night sleep, so as soon as I'm done typing out this description, I'm going to bed.

2017 is coming to a close, so there is no better time than now to look back on the best wrestling this year had to offer, and let me tell you, it offered A LOT. In terms of in ring match quality, this may be the best year for professional wrestling ever! It was hard to put a list together, but Ben and Danny managed to skim through the year to find their personal favorite matches. So join us as we gush over the year that was 2017!

We also discuss RAW, Smackdown Live, NXT, and preview Wrestle Kingdom 12, which takes place on January 4th on NJPW World!
