Join us as we ring in 2026 with a discussion of AEW Worlds End (December 27), New Years Smash (December 31), and Collision (January 3) as well as Ring of Honor’s YouTube special episode (December 30) and HonorClub #148 (January 1).

[00:58] Worlds End: How do we think it compared to other recent AEW PPVs?

[02:21] Zero Hour matches and ensuing storylines: Sisters of Sin vs. the All Elite Hyan & Maya World, Eddie Kingston clashes with the Grizzled Young Vets, El Clon leaps from the dark web, Luchasaurus gets barricaded… and who put that bounty on JetSpeed’s heads?!

[15:38] C2 Semifinals! The hot and spicy drama continues with Okada vs. Takeshita and Moxley vs. Fletcher.

[24:51] AEW Men’s and Women’s Tag Team Championship matches and the state of the tag title scene, featuring the Little Table That Could! Where the hell was Ace Austin? Mercedes and Athena are no match for the Babes of Wrath, probably because they’re not in matching gear!

[35:24] Death Rider Derangement! Gabe Kidd vs. Darby Allin did about what we expected, but Mixed Nuts Mayhem fulfilled all our hopes and dreams. Plus, Mixed Nuts Redux from Dynamite, a preview of Toni Storm vs. Marina Shafir, throuple trouble brewing courtesy of Citrus Boy, and who truly strikes fear in the heart of Claudio Castagnoli.

[50:50] The Mercedes Moné crashout continues, culminating in the main event of 2025 and a NEW TBS Champion, Willow Nightingale!

[54:47] Women’s World Championship: Kris Statlander vs. Jamie Hayter knocked our blocks off. What’s next for the women’s singles division?

[58:45] C2 Final: Mox vs. Okada in a first-time singles matchup! Shock and awe (and our smug, know-it-all nonsense)! What does this mean for Mox and the Death Riders? How about the Don Callis Family?

[1:11:53] Men’s World Championship: MJF grabs the gold and begins a new reign. We have some opinions about how that came to pass and what might happen next! We talk Kenny Omega, Hangman and Swerve, Bandido and Brody, hot potatoes, and playful predictions for practically all our top guys.

[1:39:51] Ring of Honor chat: More Hammerstein hijinks, featuring tons of local talent and Charles Mason’s bitey ROH singles debut! (and the crowd goes wild!) The Grinch (MxM TV) is righteously vanquished to cap off the holiday season.

[1:51:45] Looking forward: the importance of composting! We start dipping our toes into NJPW for the first time! Also: who has two thumbs and is semi-impulsively going to Revolution?! (this guy)
