okay so the main thing we need to talk about this week is Hangman’s moustache. what a glorious thing that was. also, hi Hangman! welcome back! we missed you lots!

this week we also got to welcome back Private Party, and MJ would like to assure you that she’s definitely not a bot, no matter what some people on Twitter might like you to think. 100% organic human over here.

and maybe we’re jumping the gun a little, but honestly, we’re kind of welcoming back the feeling, too. has Tony Khan remembered that he’s got wrestlers at home and doesn’t need to go shopping for more? maybe! Trent won a match, after all!

basically we were into everything on Dynamite this week, and you can’t say fairer than that.

happy new year! time to talk about the end of the world. Or Worlds End, at least. MJ and Sarah talk through the latest AEW pay-per-view, match by match, and do our best Meltzer impressions by giving each match a Heart Rating.

also? advocating for women, always. in 2024 we want some actual activism and not just lip-service point-scoring nonsense from some quarters.

look, we’ll be honest, this PPV wasn’t our favourite, but we do have lots of reasons to be optimistic. you know what we’re like.

coming in hot, it’s your final episode of 2023! (probably!)

we’re here to chat through our suspicions about the identity of the Devil before it’s revealed at World’s End (it is going to be revealed at World’s End, Tony, right? right??) as well as our delight at Riho nabbing a title shot and at the women’s street fight. more women’s hardcore matches in 2024 please!!

other topics include Trent’s little worried face, festive BritWres chaos, an unlikely new sad wet kitten, and a secret hack for avoiding the meaner parts of the IWC. we haven’t tested it yet but it seems promising!

we’re off for Christmas now, but we will see you back here in January. 

lots of love, your girlies.

surprise! it’s a bonus mid-week episode from your favourite Ring of Honor-loving girlies. yep, this is our Final Battle episode, where we talk through the entire card of this not-really-a-pay-per-view-because-it’s-part-of-the-Honor-Club-subscription event and tell you why it’s so good. (it’s really, really good!)

as per our self-imposed PPV rules, we’re giving every match on the main card a Heart Rating (™), which is a lot like a Meltzer star rating except better. don’t ask, just go with it.

who broke our hearts? who did we want to give a million heart emojis to? and how did we still manage to spend five minutes talking about how much we love Orange Cassidy? hit play and find out.

for more waffle, follow us on X/Bluesky/Instagram/YouTube (just search for Waffly Bollox) email us at [email protected], or grab a shirt from MJ’s shop. see you next time. xoxo

bit of a sad one, this, because your girls are absolutely heartbroken to hear that Kenny Omega is seriously ill. we wish him all the best, and we will never complain about anything ever again because we just want Kenny to be okay.

other topics of discussion include why the Devil should do a face reveal over Skype, a hotter-than-usual Hangman, and the moral imperative to put on intergender matches.

plus!! it's time to announce our Waffly Bollox Listener Awards 2023!! did your fave win? only one way to find out!

not to speak too soon or anything, but that elusive feeling? the one that needs restoring? we’re kind of feeling it!

firstly, we saw Hangman, which is always a pleasure, but he was feeling extra spicy and that was a particular highlight. then there was a banger of a Kip Sabian match, and we’ve got Kenny treats to look forward to. we dug Nick Wayne’s mum doing badass mum stuff, we love seeing Abadon when it’s not October, and we’re super into the build up to Athena vs Billie Starkz at Final Battle.

we may have had some Serious Thoughts about a certain ROH angle and the ongoing bodyshaming of, well, basically everyone, let’s be honest. but on the whole, the feeling seems to be coming back. 

also!! There’s a new tshirt in MJ’s tshirt shop, and you can still follow us on X/Bluesky/Instagram/YouTube (just search for Waffly Bollox) or email us at [email protected]. all good? all good.

you already know what we’ve got to talk about this week: CM Punk made his big triumphant return to WWE, and we say: good, have fun with that, see you never!!!!

meanwhile, Athena is teasing us with the promise of intergender matches in Ring of Honor, and yes, please, we would like that very much, put all of the belts on Athena and let us worship her as our queen.

we’re also happy to see the launch of Being The Dark Order, but in BritWres news, Kid Lykos has broken our hearts and we may never recover. wrestling!!!! it makes you feel all the things!!!!!

beyond this episode, if you’d like to vote in our listener awards, you’ll find the form here; if you’re looking for our AEW trading card competition, that’s here, and t-shirts are over here. is that everything? I think that’s everything. xoxo

this is a being-mean-to-Tony-Khan episode. so if you are Tony Khan… we’re sorry, but also, we are here to give you the girlie (gn) world view, and we think you need to listen.

it’s been about a week since Full Gear, and the Continental Classic tournament has kicked off, and Danhausen is back, and, you know, there are just some things we’d like to give feedback on. in particular: dear god do we really have to see that energy drink branding so often?

also: WHERE’S HANGMAN? we miss his face.

on the bright side, we love Athena, the forever champ, she’s the best.

If you’re looking for our AEW trading card competition, you’ll find that here, and if you’re after t-shirts, those are over here. xoxo

sports maths, goth-baiting, and fake tan hospitals: your girlies watched AEW Full Gear 2023, and then had lots of thoughts about it!

maybe watching five hours of wrestling in one sitting is actually good for us though because on the whole, we’re feeling pretty zen about everything. wrestling, you know? it’s good, that.

have you lost that lovin’ feeling? not to worry, here comes professional wrestler Daniel Garcia to bring it right back! 

this week, your girlies discuss Adam Cole’s beard, realigning the Elite, big meaty men slapping meat, appreciating AEW's broadcast team, Orange Cassidy’s friendship bracelets, and a brand new woman!!! 

also we got worryingly obsessed with the literary and cinematic parallels various wrestlers are drawing with their storylines and we’re definitely gonna be disappointed when it all goes horribly wrong.

here are all the tweets we referenced and didn’t explain well enough:
