While everyone else in the wrestling world is talking about SummerSlam, Brad finally convinced his wife to sit down and talk about her experience at AEW Redemption in Montreal last Sunday night.

She may not know the names of most of the wrestlers—or even entirely understand why they’re fighting—but that doesn’t stop her from having some strong opinions.

We discuss the characters who caught her attention, the parts of the show she enjoyed and what AEW could do differently to attract more casual viewers and a larger female audience.

Along the way, she delivers some surprisingly thoughtful criticism, several hot takes and more than a few good jokes at the expense of wrestlers she can only identify by their outfits, hair and general vibes.

Forget the star ratings. This is the AEW review that actually matters.

SmackDown was taped on Tuesday. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got married tonight, so WWE gave everyone the night off.

The highlights were a fun Lucha Match and some back stage segments involving R-Truth and company, as well as Danhausen and Matt Ryder.

It wasn’t all fireworks on this July 3rd special, we got a couple of matches that really didn’t hit the spot.

SmackDaddies will be on hiatus until August. You may get an occasional podcast from us, but we’re taking a break due to family/work commitments. Enjoy your summer.

Alleluia, the two hour SmackDown era has returned. We’re across the pond this week, on a show taped on Tuesday but making you believe it’s Friday.

This show was overall pretty fun. The Danhausen and his Legion of Danhausen, the introduction of “Matt Ryder”, Blake Monroe’s debut, Paige and Nathan Frazer wrestling at home. 

The MFTs are done. We highlight a new person on Bloodline Be-Gone. And we prepare you for Night(Afternoon) of Champions.

Some good matches this week. A lot of recaps.

Next week in London, on tape delay. We’re scared.

WWE has made it back to North America (unfortunately), and we’re back to the same old garbage.

If you want to see outside interference (repeatedly), boy do we have the show for you.

Tho, even Greg will admit he enjoyed most of the show (at 1.5x speed), we’re now edging towards the creative vacuum that was WWE in years gone by. 

Greg debuts a new segment.
