Voices of Wrestling Podcast Network

Joe makes up for missing this week's show with nearly TWO hours of Q&A, with questions supplied by YOU, the listener. No topic is off limits as Joe promises to answer every question submitted, with topics including Okada's NJPW future, the WWE prospects of every member of the EVOLVE roster, Kota Ibushi's 2009 CHIKARA run, and a detailed breakdown of how to watch your fathers porn in the 80's without getting caught.

Collin and Damon discuss the results of the 3/19 & 3/20 shows that did NOT air on NJPW World, as well as preview the card for the upcoming “Road to Invasion Attack” show on 3/27 from Korakuen Hall. Plus, why isn’t NJPW World as successful as New Japan would like, and what issues do YOU have with the streaming service? All that and lots more insight and analysis on all things in the world of New Japan Pro Wrestling!​

With conflicting schedules and NCAA tournament watching obligations rearing their ugly head this week, Joe and Rich couldn't get together for a VOW Flagship podcast. We found a suitable replacement though, as Aftermath Records artist Jon Connor steps in to chat about the issues going on in his hometown of Flint, Michigan, what he would do with the WrestleMania 32 main event, how he'll enjoy Shane McMahon vs. The Undertaker Hell in a Cell match and why you need to go to WrestleMania weekend at some point in your life.

Shake Them Ropes returns as Rob & Jeff discuss WWE RoadBlock from Saturday night, WWE Raw from Monday featuring the return of Roman Reigns and new matches for WrestleMania 32, and AJ Styles' segment on the new Edge & Christian Show. Plus, Masato Tanaka vs Mike Awesome from ECW Heatwave 1998. We also give details on a fun series at VoicesofWrestling.com this month – Match Madness!

Open the Voice Gate is back with our full four-person panel for the first time in over a month, and boy do we have a lot to talk about! Topics include: title changes galore (Twin, Brave, and TWO Dream Gate changes since our last episode together), the Brother YASSHI Incident, the MVK (Most Valuable Kzy) continuing his ridiculous run, John's way too excited for their trip to Japan, and more! Plus we have a lot of mailbag questions to get to: what gaijin do we want to see in DG and who's our favorite past gaijin? What matches would we show to a new fan? And lots more! We also talk about the recently announced Super J Cup: who should the DG reps be? What about the reps from other companies? Finally, we wrap things up with the winners of our first-ever Dragon Gate Prom voting! Yes, DG Prom. You'll love it, I promise.

​Collin and Damon review the 2016 New Japan Cup Finals which took place on Saturday, March 12th from Aomori. Plus, the guys discuss the future of Hirooki Goto, Kota Ibushi’s new venture, Invasion Attack 2016, and much more in the world of New Japan Pro Wrestling!

The Voices of Wrestling flagship podcast returns with a loaded show talking topics from all across the world of wrestling.

Next up is WrestleMania weekend we get an early idea of where Joe is planning to go, what matches have been announced so far and a bold prediction as to where you can find Kota Ibushi.

Re/Upload: Sorry for audio issues that impacted the original upload of this file. Hopefully this file works well for you! Send feedback to @ShakeThemRopes via Twitter - This week on a belated episode of Shake Them Ropes, Jeff tries to stump Rob on WWE Monday Night Raw booking. Rob was in Vegas for a few days and didn't watch a single minute of wrestling, so we play ROB GUESSES RAW! Last time we played this game, Jeff did quite well. Can Rob do better? Plus, Brock vs Angle from WrestleMania 19, and we preview this Saturday's WWE Roadblock special on WWE Network.

Open the Voice Gate is back with a special episode, as John is joined by Michael Spears of Inside the Gate and longtime DG reviewer Brad Garoon in our first DG Timeline episode! Today we're talking about the middle three heel units of Dragon Gate that make up quite possibly the weakest period for DG's heels in history: Real Hazard, Deep Drunkers, and Team Doi (08-10). Why were RH & DD so bad? What were the other things going on at the time that resulted in the heels being so weak? And how did things finally start recovering after Naruki Doi took over? We discuss all of this and more as we look at a controversial aspect of the most turbulent time period in DG's history!
