- [00:00] Saturday Morning Wrestling & Childhood Throwbacks
- Joe and Anthony kick things off talking about the weirdness (and secret perks) of watching wrestling at 8am. It’s like being a kid again, but with more coffee and less cereal.
- [04:00] Perth Crowd, Ticket Prices, and “Is Perth Even a Real Place?”
- The guys riff on WWE’s big show in Perth, the wild ticket prices, and whether anyone actually talks about Perth outside of wrestling. Spoiler: not really.
- [10:00] RAW vs. Crown Jewel & Seth’s “Is He Hurt or Not?” Saga
- They get into the never-ending Seth Rollins injury drama, why nobody believes anything anymore, and how WWE storylines sometimes make less sense than a fever dream.
- [18:00] LA Knight: The Best-Looking Guy Who Can’t Catch a Break
- LA Knight’s booking gets roasted. Is he an underdog? Is he a cocky heel? Why does he keep tripping over his own feet? The guys have thoughts (and jokes).
- [25:00] Becky Lynch, Factions, and “What Even Is This Storyline?”
- Becky’s name comes up, but so does the fact that half the storylines just got nuked. Expect some classic “what are they even doing?” rants.
- [32:00] Bailey, Lyra, and the Women’s Division: Chaos & Chemistry
- Bailey’s new vibe, Lyra’s straight-man energy, and why the women’s division is a wild ride right now. Also, a surprising amount of talk about wrestling gear.
- [40:00] Referees, Announcers, and “Back in My Day…”
- A trip down memory lane: when refs and announcers had actual personalities, and why today’s shows could use a little more flavor (and a little less sameness).
- [48:00] Dominic Mysterio vs. Penta: Cheating Done Right
- Dominic’s heel antics get a breakdown, plus a debate on whether being “too smart” is a good thing for a bad guy. Also, some love for old-school Eddie Guerrero tricks.
- [56:00] Rhea Ripley, Asuka, and “Why Is This So Complicated?”
- Rhea, Asuka, Kairi Sane, and a whole lot of chaos in the women’s title scene. The guys try to make sense of it all (and mostly just laugh about it).
- [1:03:00] Bronson Reed, Jimmy & Jay Uso, and Tag Team Tangents
- Bronson Reed’s gear, Jimmy vs. Jay, and why some tag teams just feel like reheated pizza. Expect some sidebars and a few “what are they wearing?” moments.
- [1:10:00] Main Event: Jay Uso, LA Knight, and CM Punk
- The crowd sings for Punk, LA Knight almost wins, and the guys wonder if we really need another Seth vs. Punk feud. Also: more jokes about fruit punch boxes.
- [1:18:00] Wrap-Up & Randomness
- Final thoughts, a few more rants, and a reminder to check out the Patreon. If you made it this far, you’re a real one.
