After some Impact and CMLL discussion the guys are joined by the Last Professional Broadcaster Sam Roberts for some inside information on his...

Tony takes his yearly trip to Spain, and that means one thing: it’s time for a show with your favorite bloke from London, Bazza Smith!

It’s a Studio A party! Tony doesn’t understand the ESPN body worshipping issue, or the Spartan athletes, but Kevin and Matt do their best to explain why Charlotte Flair was involved, and naked. So the conversation moves from Charlotte to Paige, where apparently someone mistook a pie face for a literal pie in the face. Did the man they call Vader deserve more than a graphic on Raw? The guys...
