Forbidden Door II Review with Jacob McCourt - Episode 98

7/4/2023
In this week's episode, we discuss the results of Forbidden Door II with a special guest who attended the show, Jacob McCourt. After Carlos grilled Jacob with a few icebreaker questions, we jumped into the single dark match on the night, Zero Hour, and the matches that aired on the actual Forbidden Door PPV. We discussed the atmosphere surrounding the show being in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and how the match order could have helped the night flow a little better, as well as spoke on what we thought were the best and worst matches of the night. *I want to apologize for the issues we had in the first 7 minutes or so of the show & the sound level fluctuation throughout all of the audio. Unfortunately, we did not have Carlos' audio in those first 7 minutes so we had him re-record what he originally said, which is why the tone may sound off, and why the audio does not match his lips when he's speaking on video. #ApronWorkPodcast #ForbiddenDoor #AEWxNJPW Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.

AEW Collision, CM Punk Drama & PPVs, Oh My! - Episode 97

5/24/2023
In this episode, we discuss our feelings about the recent AEW Collision announcement at the WBD upfronts. Then naturally, we dove deep into the CM Punk drama surrounding AEW's new Saturday night show. We discuss whether we believe the recent rumors and how much of the show's success depends on having Punk around. As we look into Collision, we realize how many PPV events are upcoming for AEW and how these may end up shaking out. #ApronWorkPodcast #AEWCollision #CMPunk Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.

In this week's episode, we took a look at WrestleMania 39 this weekend. Since we recorded this episode on Tuesday night, the card was still subject to change. We looked at and predicted all 13 matches that were announced for either Saturday or Sunday night and what surprises we felt may come at WrestleMania or the Monday Night Raw afterward.

12/14/2022
In this week's episode, we look back at the events following the Wall Street Journal article published on June 15, 2022, surrounding a Vince McMahon sex scandal. We look at some of the facts and rumors surrounding this massive story, as well as the eventual forced retirement of Mr. McMahon. We touched on the Speaking Out movement that happened when women were coming forward about the emotional, physical and sexual abuse they experienced in the professional wrestling industry and the lack of repercussions from those stories. Respass also makes sure everyone knows that he expects Mr. McMahon to either try to come back or come back into the world of WWE after time has passed. #ApronWorkPodcast #WWE #MrMcMahon Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.

We also dive into the rumored events of what happened after CM Punk’s outburst at the scrum, which has been lovingly known as “Brawl Out”.

Bray Wyatt Returns to WWE - Episode 90

10/9/2022
In this week's RETURN episode, we discuss the WWE return of Bray Wyatt at the end of Extreme Rules. We talk about how WWE teased the return with QR codes and our feelings when seeing it happen. We also look at what this means for WWE, which version of Bray we will be getting out of this, how much control he will have in this character, and why he may not have landed anywhere else before returning to WWE under the current leadership of HHH. After a long summer absence, we dive a little bit into what's been going on in the wrestling world and how we will cover many of those topics in future episodes. #ApronWorkPodcast #BrayWyatt #ExtremeRules Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.

Freddie Prinze Jr.’s Wrestling Company - Episode 89

5/30/2022
In this week's episode, we discuss the announcement by Freddie Prinze Jr. concerning his plan to start his own wrestling company. We run down some of the points about his intentions that he announced, including beginning in 18 months, men and women receiving equal time, purchasing a space to film, and the idea of being a SAG show. As we go down his list, we debate over what this could look like and what this may mean for the wrestling business, especially since Prinze Jr. had already stated that this should be more of an indie promotion and not quite competition against WWE or AEW. #ApronWorkPodcast #FreddiePrinzeJr #WrestlingWithFreddie For more Freddie Prinze Jr. Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/RealFPJr Check out Wrestling with Freddie on ▶︎ Apple Podcasts Check out Wrestling with Freddie also on ▶︎ Spotify Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.

AEW Double or Nothing 2022 Preview & Predictions - Bonus Episode

5/28/2022
In this week's BONUS episode, we take a look at AEW's Double or Nothing this Sunday. Since we recorded this episode before Rampage on Friday, the card was still subject to change, so we went with what was announced already for our predictions. We quickly ran down the card, beginning with the only announced Buy-In bout at the time and the rest of the card, but we saved some extra time to discuss four specific matches. We dug deeper into the Owen Hart Cup Finals for both the men and women, the long-awaited payoff for the feud between MJF and Wardlow, and the AEW Heavyweight Championship match has Hangman Adam Page defending his title against CM Punk. #ApronWorkPodcast #AEW #DoubleOrNothing Connect with us through social media Like us on Facebook ▶︎ https://www.facebook.com/apronworkpodcast Follow us on Instagram ▶︎ https://www.instagram.com/apronwork/ Follow us on Twitter ▶︎ https://twitter.com/ApronWork Follow us on TikTok ▶︎ https://www.tiktok.com/@apronwork Subscribe to us on YouTube ▶︎ https://bit.ly/3tzh6u7 And don't forget to leave comments.
