Show Notes
COLD OPEN QUESTION OF THE WEEK: With your Carmelo Hayes prediction being correct, are there any other wrestling predictions you’d like to make?
David and Kaz kick off the show by discussing Max Caster’s firing from TNA after one match because of a controversial line in his entrance rap that mentioned the bombing of the airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which transitions into a conversation about whether WWE’s Crown Jewel PLE will take place in Saudi Arabia as originally planned.
The guys move away from geopolitics to acknowledge Leon Slater’s win over Nic Nemeth to win the TNA World Championship at Bound for Glory last weekend, before moving on to a general discussion of this weekend’s upcoming Clockwork Carnage match at AEW’s WrestleDream. After David and Kaz give their predictions for Clockwork Carnage, they discuss Adam Copeland’s retirement announcement from this past Wednesday’s ‘AEW Dynamite’ and what his retirement tour could look like.
The show wraps up with the guys giving their picks for the rest of the WrestleDream card, and a quick preview of Tonight’s ‘SmackDown.’
