The Alleged Wrestling Podcast

PACKED show this week!

We start by discussing CM Punk's fight at UFC 225. Does Punk have any business being in the Octagon??

We have a quick chat about the big matches at NJPW Dominion last Saturday. Chris Jericho beat Naito for the IWGP Intercontinental Title and Kenny Omega finally defeated Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. We talk in depth about the angle after the match with the Young Bucks and Kota Ibushi...we now have the Golden Elite! NJPW pays off a storyline years in the making.

Unfortunately we had to move on to WWE chat where we talk about the go home shows presented on Raw and Smackdown. The Raw coverage was a little ranty…

We finish up by making our NXT Takeover Chicago and Money In The Bank Predictions!

It's a packed show, enjoy

This weeks Alleged Wrestling Podcast covers all of the latest news in the world of Professional Wrestling.

CM Punk and Colt Cabana won their defamation case versus WWE’s Dr. Amann. We discuss some of the hilarious notes from the trial. A certain Mike Litoris was the star of the show.

The WWE UK Championship Tournament will not be streamed live, we have to wait a week to see it. We discuss the reasons why. Were they not aware that England's first World Cup game is the first night of the UK Tournament? Who booked that date??

Shawn Michaels talked about have one more match, it will never happen but it doesn't stop us picking opponents for that match!

Then we get into the storyline news from this week as WWE build to Money In The Bank. Raw was god awful again this week, Smackdown was better. Is Smackdown the “A-Show” now?

In a bonus episode of The Alleged Wrestling Podcast the lads sit down to preview NJPW Dominion 2018! With Chris Jericho vs Tetsuya Naito and Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada 4 on the card we could be looking at an incredible show!

Special thanks to Dook Weaselton for providing the music for the intro! The track is called "Osmosis" and can be found with the rest of his tracks at https://soundcloud.com/dook-weaselton. Give him a listen!

In a week that saw WWE seal ANOTHER billion dollar TV deal we were robbed of a match that was advertised for an entire week! Don't worry though, they had a dance contest instead. Stuff like this confirms everybody's fears, these new TV deals mean WWE can do whatever they want from now on and they will troll their fans mercilessly for the next 5 years!

What do these new TV deals mean for the brand split? We discuss a few ideas, there's no way it stays as it is surely? Fox and USA will want big ratings draws on their shows.

Enzo Amore returned to the public eye, we discuss his new song in great depth. Is he the songbird of a generation??

The in ring action was excellent this week, particularly on Smackdown. Steve says something he never thought he would say....

There were a lot of tangents this week but the rest of storyline details are also covered as we slowly crawl towards Money In The Bank.

Unfortunately, due to a connection issue, Steves usual standard of audible chocolate is affected. His audio is usually like a Galaxy Caramel - smooth, delicious, sexy, but this week Steves internet was being a dick so it breaks apart like a cheap Flake in an ice cream cone. Sure, it's delicious in parts but breaks away too easily and never truly achieves the consistency and glory of the aforementioned Galaxy Caramel.

It's patchy at the start, gets better for about 15 mins, then falls apart like pieces of a wet cake. Steve eventually gave up and Gordo took over the big boy mic for the last hour or so. That's right! It's bizarro world maggle!

We apologise for this temporary lapse in one mans audio quality but as Gordo said during the sign off… it was better than Raw this week.

This weeks Alleged Wrestling Podcast covers all of the latest news in the world of Professional Wrestling.

WWE have reportedly sold the rights for Smackdown to Fox at $200m a year over 5 years...a ONE BILLION DOLLAR deal. This news coincided with arguably the worst segment in Raw history where Sami Zayn brought out three men dressed in drag portraying Bobby Lashley's sisters. Timing. Lets just say there was a lively debate on the subject this week.

The billion dollar week also saw the return of the Billion Dollar Princess. The “best for business line is back in full force. What did we do to deserve that?! Roman vs “WWE Management” is the latest attempt to get Roman over. Haven't we been here before? What will they try next before the desperately needed heel turn?

The rest of storyline details are also covered as we crawl towards Money In The Bank.

#AllIn sells out in under 30 minutes, we discuss how big this could be for Wrestling as a whole. The case against Enzo Amore was closed, the lads discuss his next moves and the whole saga surrounding it. The participants for the new UK Tournament were announced, who should you be looking out for? The potential new WWE TV rights deal and how that could mean a third hour of Smackdown...why god why?!

Then we get into the TV storylines from this week. The continued mishandling of Roman Reigns, AJ Styles vs Shinsuke Nakamura V leading to part VI at MITB. The B Team, Ronda vs Nia build and of course the greatness that is Booker T commentary.

We end with a Podcast recommendation for the week!

This weeks Alleged Wrestling Podcast covers all of the latest news in the world of Professional Wrestling.

We get into all of the big storylines and news items from WWE TV over the past few days. Raw and Smackdown Live hit record low ratings this week and with segments like the sit down interview with Bobby Lashley it's not hard to see why! Gordo opens the show with the rant of a lifetime.

We discuss the link between Simpsons character Poochie The Dog and THE BIG DOG Roman Reigns. Both canines have been poorly handled by their respective writing teams and need a new attitude to save them.

Ember Moon said she was “over the moon” with her Money In The Bank qualification. Did she mean she was happy with the win OR is it a multi faceted complex promo? Was she elated with the victory OR did she really mean that Cathy Kelley had a threeway with Tom Mike and Mike Tom? We started to discuss the “moon” line and ended up there. Don’t do drugs kids...we don't and we still trip balls ON LIFE!

The lads went LIVE on YouTube for the WWE Backlash Post Show! We break the card down match by match and review the whole show.

It's our most depressing show yet...enjoy!

This weeks Alleged Wrestling Podcast covers all of the big news in the world of Professional Wrestling as we discuss this weeks Go-Home shows for WWE Backlash this Sunday...I know...another PPV...

We get into all of the big storylines and news items from WWE TV over the past few days. Raw and Smackdown Live this week aired from Canada, or Bizarro World as Vince would have us believe. They cheered the people the normally boo and booed th-ahhh you get the gag at this stage! It's nothing to do with the booking. Oh no, it couldn't be that! It's those fans they just won't fall in line. Get off the meds.

After that we make our predictions for Backlash. Watch out for our LIVE post show right after the show goes off the air. I can assure you that we’ll be hammered that night. Do join us, won't you?

The lads went LIVE on YouTube after The Greatest Royal Rumble to break the whole thing down! We were joined by John from the Take Too Takedown Podcast to review the show in full minutes after the show went off the air!

Remember this is The Alleged Wrestling Podcast meets Take Too Takedown….it gets a little silly!

Don’t forget to check out Take Too Takedown Podcast on twitter @TakeTooTakedown and listen to their podcast too!

Also yes...Steve is very aware that he said East when he should have said West and West when he should have said East. Deal with it. What other Podcast on this planet went and checked which towns were 2,300 miles away from where they are based to mess with WWE logic on Jinder? Not a single one...you're welcome.
