[02:18] Dynamite/Collision recap: our take on Ricochet’s cheap heat, Speedball’s salesmanship, and the build to Bobby Lashley vs. Shelton Benjamin to kick off the Casino Gauntlet; the Young Bucks under pressure; Roddy’s conglomerability, Mox’s favorite hobby (tapping out), and Big Dad Energy; Toni & Mina stealing the show with a fresh entrance; Hangman finds his mojo once again; Megan Bayne & Marina Shafir dominating; Okada and Dorada having a weird day; and the welcome return of Red Velvet vs. the irrepressible Mercedes Moné. Plus, a plethora of promos get us pumped for the PPV.

[35:42] Ring of Honor HonorClub recap: we’re seated with popcorn for the Athena Show! Also, Trent is ready to fight children, and the Infantry and Top Flight heat up a tasty feud.

[43:35] Full Gear preview: we give our thoughts, predictions, hopes and dreams for each and every match on the card. Will any of it be correct? (Bonus: find out what really cheesed Kat off!)

We fully forgot about the Bean of the Week, but rest assured that we haven’t really been cooking this week and you haven’t missed anything.

[00:40] WOMEN’S BLOOD AND GUTS! Did it live up to the hype? Is it better to go first or last? We give a (sorta) full play-by-play, share our thoughts, bop Excalibur on the nose with a rolled-up newspaper, speculate on budding and continuing storylines, crown the Death Match Princess, keep an eye on Chekhov’s Champagne, and enjoy the bittersweet pain of defeat in the name of love.

[23:10] Dynamite continued: will the Don Callis Family threaten the Young Bucks into submission? Hangman Adam Page and Powerhouse Hobbs provide a delicious, fully cowboy-sh!ttified intermission snack. FTR continue their tradition of assaulting senior citizens.

[31:53] Blood and Guts continued: now with men! We discuss the tragedy that is Wheeler Yuta, psychological horror, chains, shenanigans, alpine technique, Lorna Doones, and friendship saving the day. Did we get what we expected between the Death Riders and the Conglomeration? Plus: post-Blood and Guts promos and speculation on the women’s tag team championship!

[52:40] Collision recap and review: making the most of a weird match card with Mox on commentary! We discuss the fallout from Blood and Guts and the setup for Full Gear, including: Death Riders vs. Adam Priest, Tommy Billington, and Jay Lethal; philosopher-poet Pac; Toni Storm & Mina Shirakawa plan for their next tag team matchup; Mark Briscoe vs. Mark Davis; Josh Alexander generates heat; MxM TV casting call (and call-out); Tay Melo vs. Taya Valkyrie; Death Rider candidate Toni Storm; Don Callis Family candidate Deonna Purrazzo; Scorpio Sky vs. Kyle Fletcher for the cursed TNT championship belt; fiscal responsibility; Alex Windsor & Riho vs. Hyan & Maya World; and an unholy eight-man tag.

We hype up the women of House of Glory SuperClash (November 15): Maki Itoh vs. Shayna Baszler, Allie Katch & Priscilla Kelly vs. Shotzi Blackheart & Scarlett Bordeaux, and the main event match featuring Mercedes Moné vs. Nor “Phoenix” Diana. We also pay a quick, belated visit to DDT Pro and have a Rumble in the Chungle.

[1:34:16] Looking forward to a crazy week! Previewing Wednesday’s go-home Dynamite/Collision; anticipating a first-ever live AEW PPV experience in Jersey at Full Gear, followed by a first-ever visit to The Mecca for JCW; and abandoning self-care in favor of screaming at hot ‘possums.

[39:25] The new AEW National Championship belt and the Casino Gauntlet match that will award it at Full Gear: too many belts or just enough? Will we see a victor from the Hurt Syndicate, the Demand, or JetSpeed? Audiences, stop trying to make Ricochet shut up.
