e're rewinding all the way back to ECW’s first-ever pay-per-view—Barely Legal (1997)—a night of beer-soaked chaos, barbed wire mayhem, and Philly filth that changed wrestling forever. From RVD’s high-flying debut to Terry Funk bleeding his way into a title shot at age 53, we break down the ladder-swinging insanity, the infamous crowd, the Sandman’s cigarette-soaked entrance, and Paul Heyman’s scrappy masterpiece. Plus: we talk TNA Rebellion 2025, Joe Hendry's rising star, and why L.A. absolutely buried Tessa Blanchard. It’s ECW’s bloodstained legacy in all its outlaw glory.

WrestleMania Night 2 brought the chaos, and Grapple City Rewind is here for all of it. Bradley Palermo and Aaron Fink break down the big surprises, sloppy spots, and historic heel turns — including John Cena’s 17th World Title win and the unexpected crowd support for him. We talk Bianca Belair vs Io Sky vs Rhea Ripley stealing the show, Drew McIntyre putting Damian Priest through a table, and Joe Hendry making the most of his squash against Randy Orton. Plus: Logan Paul wins clean, Becky Lynch returns (again), and Braun Breaker’s lifts.

From commentary fatigue to Cena’s press scrum poker face — it’s all here in this bonus GCR ep. Slam that play button.

Bradley Palermo and Aaron Fink go late-night with this bonus Grapple City Rewind episode, breaking down all the chaos from WrestleMania 41 Night 1 in Las Vegas. We talk about Jey Uso making Gunther tap (?!), the New Day hitting a record 12th tag title run, Jade Cargill's clunky but strong win, and Tiffany Stratton stepping up big time against Charlotte Flair.

Plus, CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns tear the house down in one of the best triple threats we’ve ever seen—complete with a wild Paul Heyman swerve. We also touch on the Hall of Fame, Sabu’s bloody GCW sendoff, indie crossovers, and why El Grande Americano is wrestling’s most ridiculous delight.

It's unfiltered, off-the-cuff, and full of hot takes. Come hang for a post-Mania rundown that pulls no punches.
