SHOW SUMMARY: PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents the Tuesday Flagship edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with guest co-host PWTorch columnist and PWTorch podcast host Greg Parks. They discuss these topics:
- Analysis of the build to Summerslam including last night’s Raw
- A breakdown of the announced line-ups for each night, including whether Night 2 even feels like a decent off-peak PPV rather than a stadium show worth thousands of dollars for prime ticket?
- Thoughts on individual matches at Summerslam
- Ideas for alternative line-ups or matches than what WWE went with
- Is Will Ospreay solidifying himself as a top babyface for AEW or creating more doubt with each week that goes by?
- Who should Tony Khan build around after All In
- A few thoughts on AEW Redemption including thoughts on Willow Nightingale winning the AEW Title and the Kenny Omega attack on Ospreay
VIP-EXCLUSIVE AFTERSHOW TOPICS

- A big picture look at New Japan’s G1 this year compared to past years, and how it’s looking so far
- WWE Unreal early thoughts (including references for discussion points sprinkled throughout the show) with a focus on their framing of John Cena in the early minutes of episode one, Bruce Prichard and Paul Levesque’s comments about calling wrestlers up from NXT intentionally before they’re ready because they have nothing left to learn in NXT (and how that can work out well or backfire, depending on the wrestler).
- Who in NXT seems on pace to be the next difference-makers or strong contributors on the main roster a year or two from now

SHOW SUMMARY: PWTorch editor Wade Keller was joined by PWTorch’s Paul Weigle to discuss Raw with live chat and live caller interaction throughout. They begin by analyzing a decent-enough just fine final segment with Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, but how the hit-or-miss build and awkward face-face structure doomed this from being what it could have been. Also, why did Oba Femi beat up a bunch of cops (and why did Michael Cole say, “You can’t blame him”?!?) Is the answer to WWE’s problems staring them in the face with the crowd reactions to their mid-card matches? Did it show on the faces of top wrestlers that this Summerslam build has been a bust? Should TKO consider replacing Paul Levesque (or should they get out of his way if he’s actually lost his power)?
