"The Doctor of Thuganomics"; "The Leader of the Cenation"; "The Leader of the Chain Gang" John Cena has officially hung up his jorts and Reeboks for the final time. He's calling it a career after countless historic moments, banger matches, and 17 world titles. Is he the G.O.A.T.? There's certainly an argument to be made. For the next 2 weeks, we will honor his legacy. This week, it's all the news stories I could dig up that we've covered in the past about the man. Thank you, Cena!

If you're a WCW fan, you know what December means. It's time for Starrcade! And in 1997, WCW held their biggest event (possibly) of their entire existence. Hollywood Hogan and the NWO were runnin' wild on WCW and, like an avenging angel, Sting made his return. But this time, he wasn't in neon paint with flashy tights. Now, he was sporting a look straight out of The Crow and playing head games with the New World Order. It all led to his first match in about a year on this very night. CHILLS!

In never-before posted audio with my cohost Greg (rest in peace), we go through the life, times, and career of Vince Russo. We cover his time before wrestling, his personal life, his time in the WWF, WCW, TNA, and beyond. And no, we don't leave out the craziest crap he's ever said and the biggest feuds he's sparked. It's a fun episode!

Today, I'm going over the Dark Side of Vince McMahon, starting in the '80s and going through him resigning in disgrace from WWE and the TKO Group. I'll also update you on the new UFC streaming deal, a possible WrestleMania in Saudi Arabia, and Karrion Kross and Scarlett being gone from WWE.

I'm reviewing not ONE, but TWO nights of WWE SummerSlam 2025--the biggest SummerSlam ever. Overblown? Yes. Worth it? We'll discuss. Also, I'll cover some huge news about WWE PLE's on ESPN. There's more fallout from the death of Hulk Hogan. Triple H talks about Vince McMahon. There's drama in AEW. And perpetrators in the #MeToo controversy are blowing up the indies. We're talking about that and much more on today's show!

One of the biggest stars in the history of professional wrestling, Hulk Hogan, has passed away. Eulogies, dedications, and controversy have followed. I'm going to talk about all of that, cover some of the messages of support pouring in, the social media trash, and where the industry goes moving forward.

TNA Slammiversary 2025 has become quite divisive within the Internet Wrestling Community. Was it good, great, or terrible? Was it better than AEW's latest PPV outing? I'll talk about it all on the show. I'll also discuss the health of 2 huge wrestling legends, a former NXT star stepping away from the business, wrestling in movie theaters, and more!

This was one of the biggest wrestling weekends of the year, including WWE Saturday Night's Main Event with Goldberg's last match, AEW All In Texas, and WWE Evolution 2. There was a lot that went on, various injuries, retirements, and much more to discuss on the show.
