This week, we welcome back Keisha Hatchett for the final episode of 2020. It's the Wrestle Buddies Awards! That's right, you've waited all year for it and it's finally time for the Buddiesies. We have lots of trophies to give out, so hopefully, you're ready for an award more prestigious than the Slammys and the WWE Hall of Fame put together. Oh, and Mat plays with WWF Bungeez again because he's truly committed to the bit.

This week, Mat and Chris found the absolute worst toy WWE ever released, just in time for the holidays. Do you remember WWF Bungeez? It's like what if Pogs met magnets met severed heads and it's wonderfully bad. Of course, we had to buy and play with it. You're also in luck, as this episode contains the final Wrestlepiece Theatre of 2020 as the stars of GameSpot After Dark join forces with the hosts of We Enjoy Wrestling to recreate an iconic Attitude Era promo. All that, plus we answer your questions!

This week, Mat takes us back to when Kane unmasked and, because he had nothing else to do, began feuding with the Attitude Era version of himself. Yes, it was weird. Then Chris spends a lot of time talking about Impact Wrestling's absolute worst faction ever, Sports Entertainment Xtreme. Yes, the acronym is SEX. Yes, Vince Russo is at fault. All that, plus we answer your questions!

This week, Mat and Chris look at Kenny Omega's All Elite Wrestling world championship win and AEW's new partnership with Impact Wrestling. Will it lead to dream matches, even if Omega's first Impact appearance wasn't that interesting? We also look at the current Being the Elite product and the rise of Dark Order's John Silver in our hearts and minds. All that, plus your questions!

This week, Mat is flying solo, and he's diving into the history of Vince McMahon's performance of the song "Stand Back." Coincidentally, discussing this performance also means a dive into the WWF's first two musical albums and the creation of the Slammys. While that all seems like a lot, it all fits together like one large, bizarre, musical puzzle. Mat also discusses how WWF booked its PPV matches in 1995 and why that way works better than how WWE books currently. Also, he answers all of your burning questions.

Happy Thanksgiving! This week we are giving out thanks to the pro wrestling gods for all kinds of things, including the miraculous return of the Gobbledy Gooker at Survivor Series. Mat and Chris dig deep in to the history of the Gooker, for those that aren't familiar with this ridiculous character. We also look back on 2020 and discuss wrestling-related things we're thankful for. All that, plus your questions!

This week Chris and Mat welcome AEW's Darby Allin to talk about his TNT Championship win, the first year of AEW Dynamite, and the trials and tribulations of airport security. We also head back once again to 1995 as Mat teaches us all about a wrestler near and dear to his heart. Get ready to learn a lot about the guitar-playing, tie dye-wearing Man Mountain Rock. Don't know who that is? You're not alone. All that, plus your questions!

This week, Mat and Chris welcome NXT superstar Johnny Gargano for a wide-ranging discussion that touches on everything from his feelings about wheels to the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay at Disneyland's Haunted Mansion. We also talk about wrestling if that's what you're into. Additionally, the Wrestle Buddies are happy to see Gangrel pop up in AEW, so get ready for a super-sized Gangrel Watch. All that, plus your questions!

*Note: This episode was recorded before Gargano's North American Championship loss.
