The biggest victory for a professional wrestling vampire mad scientist with no actual professional affiliation with a major sporting franchise or actual participation in said franchise’s events took place this past weekend... and it somehow makes sense!

How the unlikely pairing of Danhausen and the New York Knicks' 2026 playoff journey became a perfect storm and made the relatively new WWE star the talk of the sports world. This could very well be wrestling's greatest mainstream crossover success (while the wrestler is still just a wrestler!)

Also this week, an update on the Rhea Ripley injury situation, as details remain scarce about "Mami's" status going into WWE SummerSlam.

Could AEW be facing a situation with a Japanese star that is all too familiar to them?

Plus, YOUR feedback on the greatest mid-carders, and a preview of this coming Friday's Dungeon Wrestling event in Calgary, Alberta and more!

Breaking news! The Greeks watched SmackDown!

With the wonky scheduling of WWE the last few weeks, they get a pass, but do they GIVE a pass to what they saw this week?

Also, who are their picks for the King and Queen of the Ring? Does AEW have anything planned for the Death Riders? That and a LOT more come up on this week's sit down with Mitch Hontzias and Dimitri Korlis! For more on our shows, visit celebratewrestling.com

This week, join host Stefan Bennett with Mike McGuire as they take a brief glimpse at the life and career of one of wrestling's most believable stars.

Let us know what you remember about Brian Pillman in the comments, and support all our shows at celebratewrestling.com
