We talk about the brutal reality of taking bumps (major props to those taking powerbombs on the apron—the ring is not a trampoline!), break down the shocking title changes, and discuss what’s next for the championship picture across the board.
But we aren't stopping there. We're looking ahead to a historic weekend of wrestling, previewing the massive AEW All In pay-per-view at Wembley Stadium, NXT Heatwave, and hyping up the action from AAA.
On a more serious note, Lee and David take a moment to discuss the tragic news of a former wrestling star's recent ALS diagnosis, raising awareness for the cause and calling for the return of the Ice Bucket Challenge to support those battling this disease.
