I've got a lot to say about AEW Grand Slam Australia and the Brody King controversy that erupted this week after Dave Meltzer's ERRONEOUS report about him being kept off TV by Warner Brothers Discovery.  The CNN website even featured a story that focused a lot on Brody.  What could this be leading to?... Paul Levesque rumored to be IN THE HOT SEAT as WWE calls an emergency meeting amid TKO concerns over lagging WrestleMania ticket sales, here are the REAL reasons why those sales are lagging and why they have no one to blame but themselves... where things stand for Elimination Chamber and rumors of a Brock Lesnar vs. LA Knight match for Mania... Kevin Nash has a NEW STORY about why his match with CM Punk in 2011 never happened... and reviewing the Wrestling Observer Newsletter 2025 Awards!

Solomonster reviews the final AEW Dynamite before Grand Slam Australia with TWO title changes, one of which was completely baffling coming so soon after the title just changed hands, but what a banger of a match it was.  Kenny Omega and Swerve Strickland set the date and place for their showdown, an AEW original tag team returns to the ring and more.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw from Cleveland with CM Punk's promo on Finn Balor as the highlight of the show, along with a spectacular spot involving Je'Von Evans.  Plus, AJ Lee returns and gets a big match, and more names qualify for the Elimination Chamber.  There's a spark missing on these shows that hopefully they can find soon because if not, this road to Mania is going to be a bumpy one.

The Royal Rumble is over and it was very much a mixed bag for WWE.  I've got a lot to say about Roman Reigns and Liv Morgan winning, one of the WORST sequences in Rumble history, the surprises of who was and was NOT in the Rumbles and AJ Styles retires from the ring... or does he?  Plus, Roman's comments on Pat McAfee's show throwing shade at WWE creative... NXT General Manager Ava GONE from the company... thoughts on the GOOD AND BAD of WWE Unreal Season Two... Tommaso Ciampa wins the TNT title and explains his choice of AEW over renewing with WWE... is WWE really the best wrestling fit for ESPN... and some of the worst wrestling t-shirts of all time!
