Three friends gather on an irregular basis to casually discuss and dissect simulated violence as storytelling in its many forms around the world. WWE, NJPW, PWG, Lucha Underground, Stardom, ROH, CMLL, and whatever else catches our fancy. It ain't ballet, but it is amazing, stupid, hilarious, weird, confusing, and beautiful. It's professional wrestling, and there's nothing quite like it. Let's talk about it.
Special guest Russ is back! Him and Stevo went to NJPW’s big debut in the USA, and they lay out their experiences with the ups and downs of live wrestling. It’s also tournament season, as we talk about the lineups and prospects of NJPW’s G1, PWG’s Battle of Los Angeles, WWE’s Mae Young Classic, and more!

Wrestle Kingdom 11. Ethical wrestling consumption under fascism. Twitter beef. Sandwich chat. The hot new heel stable: Bullet Gun. Minoru Suzuki as an assassin sent to kill Vince McMahon. The longest boy I ever did see. Dustin Rhodes’ great burden. The Royal Rumble. Would you smoke weed with Necro Butcher? They put Chris Jericho in a shark cage. FBI, all of this is a joke.

BOLA 2016. It made us laugh. It made us cry. It made us wonder what kind of training they’re doing in the New Japan Dojo. We also run through the big points of NJPW, Lucha Underground, Ring of Honor, and Stardom. We also spend an hour in a hole and talk about WWE, and all the different ways it’s dissapointing us.
