this episode, we're delighted to be playing Hear Me Out with the hosts of Tea and Tussle, the first ever Black British female-led wrestling podcast.

look, yes, maybe November 6th wasn't the happiest day in the world, but we made it work. contains chat about representation in indie wrestling, about promotions who "don't see colour", and lots lots more.

this week was Halloween and frankly we scared ourselves with how much wrestling we watched. from Progress Chapter 172: Werewolves of London through Mystery Wrestling 11 and Fright Night Dynamite to three hours of Ring of Honor plus Rampage and Collision, there's been a lot to talk about this week. don't worry though, much of it is still very Chuck Taylor centric.

Dynamite this week was kind of like a horror movie, and it wasn't even Fright Night. the spectre of Mox and his crew loomed terrifyingly over the whole episode, and unfortunately we were too good at understanding story structure to feel safe when we saw our beloved Chuck Taylor show up. elsewhere, Shelton Benjamin surely qualifies to challenge for the ROH tag belts, Abadon hates cake, and is Tony Khan booking this show to spite us now or what?

one week after WrestleDream and things sure are happening!!! this episode, we've given up and made up our own names for Mox's new faction, we celebrated Kenny Omega's birthday, we don't trust Adam Cole one bit, and we love everything the AEW and ROH women's divisions are doing.

also Sarah got trapped in a car park.

did you love WrestleDream? we LOVED WrestleDream. considering how whingey we've been the last few weeks, it feels good to be genuinely happy again. this PPV delivered. it even delivered Chuck Taylor, which was a treat we'd never even dared to hope for. get your verdicts and Heart Ratings here!

it's official, AEW is sticking around for years to come, and all the backseat economists on X-formerly-known-as-Twitter are fuming. there's actual steam coming out of their ears. it's quite funny.

elsewhere, the former Blackpool Combat Club continue to be menaces, the Bucks continue to come out of the gremlin hole, but we are feeling a bit blue this week. maybe because there aren't enough women's matches?? sort it out Tony please.

we're back!!! this week was AEW's Dynamite Grand Slam, and we found out that yes, Bryan Danielson is cleared to fight, but only if you play his expensive music. we also think women should get more than six minutes on the telly but uhh apparently not everyone agrees.

elsewhere: what is Mox gonna call his new faction? and what did he do to his beard this week?

we're asking all the important questions, as usual.
