Rob & Jeff return to preview and predict WWE's next special live event, Hell In A Cell. We wade through the laziness and confusion to break down what might happen, what should happen, and what will happen this Sunday on Pay-Per-View. We'll be back Sunday night, immediately after Hell In A Cell, for a LIVE call-in recap show. Catch all the info at ShakeThemRopes.com. An Enzo Amoré approved (unofficially) here, hope you enjoy it!

We didn't have much to talk about so, of course, we went two and a half hours. We preview WWE Hell in a Cell PPV and discuss the less-than-stellar current WWE booking. Topics also include Randy Orton's horrendous title history and why he isn't a draw, what we'd do with Rusev, a Roman Reigns heel turn and much more. Then, we take your questions including a discussion of Pro Wrestling NOAH, Ring of Honor, Big Show's punch, Floyd Mayweather and so much more.

You've asked for a new Voices of Wrestling flagship podcast and unfortunately, you got it! We spend over an hour talking about TNA and their last potential PPV in last Sunday's Bound for Glory as well as MVP's thoughts on the NWA being irrelevant. Then we move over to Japan and talk New Japan Pro Wrestling's King of Pro-Wrestling 2014, preview the Jr. Super Tag Tournament and the Power Struggle tour. The show finishes with a discussion of 2014's Wrestler of the Year and odd tangents about Plenty of Fish, Cameron Crowe and laser discs.

Brad Maddox is back, Justin Roberts is gone, Rusev is hitting dropkicks, and more hot topics from the week are discussed on Shake Them Ropes. Rob & Jeff return to find out exactly what is anything, and what is nothing, while finding many excuses to delay talking about Raw until they absolutely have to. Also, was Chris Benoit a bigger star in WCW than WWE? The answer… may surprise you. (No, it won’t)
