There are many iconic weddings in wrestling history: Macho Man and Miss Elizabeth. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. Vickie Guerrero and Edge. Rachel recruits Ben to join her for a super special I LIke Wrestling episode breaking down every moment of the wedding of the century. The dynamic duo discuss why its ridiculousness resonated so much with at least one of us, parallels between superstars in 2008 and today, and the layers of kayfabe in the Unreal docuseries.

Fresh off her win as SummerSlam Prophetess of Prediction, Rachel is joined by Adam and Audio Sean. TKO’s latest “business move” announcement about PLEs switching to ESPN+ spurns strong reactions among the group and might even be the nail in the coffin on at least one of our relationships with the WWE. Tonight’s burning questions include: Where does Jelly Roll rank in celebrity matches? How soon until Alexa Bliss turns on Charlotte Flair and can Charlotte maintain the face cheers? Does Becky Lynch’s new music have the potential to become this generation’s “Voices”?

The ILW Lounge is jam-packed with almost all of our members as Rachel and the OGs run through predictions for this weekend’s double dose of SummerSlam. Is it time for Jade Cargill to be crowned champ or does she need some more time before she’s ready to shine? Which storyline deserves to main event night one? Are Adam and Sean cosmically aligned on all of their picks? Should Dominik Mysterio be the next double-belt champion? All these questions and more answered only in The Lounge!

This week on ILW Lounge, everything's going through changes — from Rachel’s major life announcement to the shocking death of Ozzy Osbourne. We reflect on how sudden change can make even the strangest wrestling storylines feel like fate, including Jacy Jayne’s second straight upset and the bizarre Becky/Lyra/Bayley triangle. Hop on board the crazy train as Adam finds meaning in Roman’s first yeet and Audio Sean climbs back onto the Trick Williams hype express.

Surprise! With so much wrestling last weekend, we couldn’t fit it all into just one pod! Uncle Naitch jumps back in the hosting chair with the OGs to discuss All In, Saturday Night’s Main Event, and Great American Bash. Also, could the Seth injury be a work? And we all let our feelings about Goldberg be heard. Sit back and join us in the lounge!

Evolution 2.0 blew away expectations and outshined nearly every PPV in recent memory, prompting the ILW Lounge crew to dedicate a full episode to the all-killer, no-filler event. Despite a rocky build and a cringey toy-centric opening that left Rachel nervous, every match delivered—and then some. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die, and Evolution 2.0 might've just made a few new ones. Adam breaks down the chaos and brilliance of the triple threat’s multiple false finishes, while Uncle Naitch can’t stop gushing over Lash Legend’s Royal Rumble star turn.

This weekend is stuffed to the brim with wrestling and just like Mercedes Mone, sometimes it’s hard to keep track of what’s going on each day. We all share what match we’re looking forward to this weekend, opening up the door for a conversation on tournaments vs. feuds as a path to the championship. Uncle Naitch introduces an interesting theory about Beyonce’s impact on Evolution ticket sales, Adam educates us about Solo’s childhood relationship with the Usos, Audio Sean sets a new record for live shows attended in one week, and Rachel is rizzing for Ricky Starks.

Rachel, Adam, and Audio Sean swing open the ILW Lounge doors to discuss what’s up in wrestling this week and an analysis into who is and isn’t on the Evolution 2.0 poster. Other top-of-mind questions include: Is the on-screen product suffering from the age-old issue of quantity over quality? What if Cena’s Retirement Tour is just The Hero’s Journey in disguise? Was Jade Cargill’s Queen of the Ring overshadowed by Raquel’s showcase against Rhea Ripley?
