WrestleMania 42 is officially heading to Las Vegas—not New Orleans—and we’ve got thoughts. This week, we break down what this major location switch means for WWE, the fans, and the future of big wrestling events.

We also talk about Diddy stepping into full heel energy and ask the big question: What makes a truly great villain in wrestling? From classic mind games to major money draws, we build our Mount Rushmore of Heels and dive deep into the psychology and business of being the bad guy.

New city. New villains. Same Jobber energy.

We kick things off this week with a deep dive into two of the most talked-about films right now—Marvel’s Thunderbolts and the supernatural thriller Sinners. From Marvel’s dark turn into antihero territory to the gritty moral weight of Sinners, we unpack the themes, standout performances, and whether these projects lived up to the hype—or fell flat. It’s film critique with a Jobber Tears twist.

From there, we shift gears and take you into the world of indie wrestling, breaking down who’s actually selling tickets in 2025. It’s not just about talent—it’s about drawing power, branding, and the business. We name names, highlight breakout stars, and talk about what separates a good wrestler from a box office draw on the independent scene.

Then we close with our WWE Backlash 2025 preview, breaking down the card match-by-match. From title bouts to potential swerves, we lay out who has the most to gain, what stories could shift, and how this show sets the stage for the summer stretch of WWE programming.

If you love wrestling, film, and keeping your finger on the culture’s pulse—this episode is for you.
