SHOW SUMMARY: In this week’s 5 Yrs Ago Flashback episode (5-27-2021), we present a special PPV Preview Roundtable edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with former Pro Wrestling Torch columnist (circa 1990) Eric Krol and PWTorch’s Tyler Sage looking ahead to that Sunday’s AEW Double or Nothing PPV. They looked at possible big surprises and the wisdom of AEW not hyping that ahead of time if there is one. Which match is the actual main attraction and what are the pros and cons of various matches closing out the show? They look at Kenny Omega’s AEW Title defense against Orange Cassidy and Pac, the Stadium Stampede match between the Pinnacle and Inner Circle, and everything else in the deep ensemble line-up.
Also, Cody Rhodes’s media Q&A is also included from that week where he talked with media about the PPV.

SHOW SUMMARY: In this week’s Interview Classic podcasts, we jump back to ten years ago this week (5-26-2016) when PWTorch editor Wade Keller interviewed Jim Ross with a predominant focus on WWE’s announcement that Smackdown goes live on Tuesdays in July and would include a distinct roster from Raw. Ross dissected the possible benefits and pitfalls of such a major change in WWE’s structure, looks back at the prior brand split and what is different today, his preference for how the separate rosters would be structured and how champions should be ideally featured. Also, live calls and emails delved into more aspects of the brand split and other topics. Plus some Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and NBA OKC Thunder-Golden State Warriors talk at the end.
