  <itunes:subtitle>The “Neon Ninja” Facade joins Sorg and Mad Mike to discuss championship opportunities, calculated risks, and rediscovering the joy of professional wrestling.

Facade previews his three-way JCW World Heavyweight Championship match against Josh Bishop and Father Bronson at Bloodymania. He reflects on the evolution of JCW, shares memories from the Gathering of the Juggalos, revisits his history with Ricochet, and considers the possibility of entering to Vanilla Ice’s “Ninja Rap.”

He also tells the complete story behind accepting a Power Slap fight on only a few days’ notice. Facade explains cutting nearly ten pounds, entering without a full training camp, receiving the first strike, and questioning how a referee repositioned him immediately before the knockout.

Elsewhere, the crew examines Chelsea Green’s star-making promo after suffering an orbital injury, WWE’s expanding relationship with AAA, the final Sorgstock match announcements, and recent independent wrestling events. “What We Learned” covers Rey Mysterio’s enduring greatness, CM Punk’s promo misfire, the evolving Bloodline hierarchy, and the importance of protecting your passion.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;The “Neon Ninja” Facade joins Sorg and Mad Mike for a wide-ranging Wrestling Mayhem Show covering championship drama, lucha libre, JCW’s evolution, Power Slap controversy, and the importance of remembering why wrestling is supposed to be fun.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The show opens with Chelsea Green’s emotional response to suffering an orbital injury immediately after her championship victory. The crew praises Green’s fiery babyface promo, the crowd’s investment in her journey, and WWE’s decision to give her 30 days to return and defend the title. They also examine the strength of WWE’s women’s championships, Fatal Influence’s fast rise, and Facade’s personal experience working with Green earlier in her career.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;WWE’s growing relationship with AAA leads to a larger lucha discussion. The hosts consider a potential Penta–Rey Fenix tournament final, Roman Reigns wrestling in Mexico, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.’s Raw appearance, the AAA Cruiserweight Championship appearing on NXT, and WWE adjusting its schedule around football and other media partnerships.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The independent wrestling roundup includes 2PW’s Battle of the Barrel, RWA’s upcoming Renegade Rumble, and the final two Sorgstock match announcements: Brianna Bands against Reese Hayes and The Runway against Wild Wild South.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Facade then looks ahead to the Gathering of the Juggalos and Bloodymania. He discusses JCW’s transition from chaotic, insider-driven wrestling toward a more polished and accessible product—without abandoning attractions like Gore Games. Most importantly, Facade previews his three-way JCW World Heavyweight Championship opportunity against Josh Bishop and JCW American Champion Father Bronson.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The conversation shifts to Facade’s latest Power Slap appearance. He explains accepting the fight on extremely short notice, cutting nearly ten pounds, entering without a full training camp, and being knocked out by a clean strike from Power Slap opponent Bougie. Facade also raises concerns about how a referee repositioned his stance immediately before the slap, discusses competitor safety, and reveals what it would take to bring him back.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, “What We Learned” covers Rey Mysterio’s seemingly ageless performance against Chad Gable, CM Punk’s misguided promo material against Kevin Owens, the latest Bloodline power structure, and Sorg rediscovering his enthusiasm for wrestling at a relaxed community show.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;News stories and topics&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chelsea Green’s injury and breakout promo&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Green suffered a broken orbital bone shortly after winning her championship.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Nick Aldis gave her 30 days to recover, find a protective mask, and defend the title.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Mad Mike calls her response one of WWE’s strongest pure babyface promos in years.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The panel believes the injury angle may strengthen her connection with the audience.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade recalls managing Green and praises her personality and professionalism.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WWE’s women’s championship scene&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The hosts discuss the momentum surrounding WWE’s women’s singles titles.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Fatal Influence’s rapid rise and championship success receive particular attention.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Chelsea Green and Tiffany Stratton’s recent involvement is examined.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wrestling’s greatest ring slides&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The Usos’ synchronized slides spark a debate about the best entrances into the ring.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Paul London, The Rock, John Cena, and Titus O’Neil enter the conversation.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The tangent expands into Samoan wrestling families and their shared athletic traits.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WWE and AAA’s lucha crossover&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The crew anticipates a possible Penta versus Rey Fenix tournament final.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Roman Reigns’ scheduled appearance in Mexico adds importance to the tournament.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. and El Fiscal appearing on Raw are discussed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The AAA Cruiserweight Championship continuing on NXT is viewed as a natural extension of the partnership.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Michael Cole’s difficulty with lucha names becomes a running joke.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WWE programming and scheduling&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The panel discusses double tapings and earlier Raw start times.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  WWE’s relationship with ESPN and the challenge of competing with Monday Night Football are considered.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The hosts note how wrestling scheduling increasingly works around larger sports partnerships.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CM Punk visiting an NXT live event&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Punk’s surprise appearance and physical interaction with Myles Borne are discussed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The group jokes about Punk choosing a small Florida live event over other cities.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Independent wrestling roundup&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  TNF’s Lethal Lottery and recent surprises receive a plug.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  2PW’s Battle of the Barrel featured four matches at a West Homestead fire department event.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Matches included Jason Tyler versus Phillip Archer, Paul Atlas and Marshall Gambino against Gory and Super Hentai, and Dennis Gregory versus Zach Nystrom.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Little Ginge’s appearance with Chest Flexor is highlighted.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  RWA’s upcoming Renegade Rumble is previewed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Final Sorgstock match announcements&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Brianna Bands will face amateur-wrestling standout Reese Hayes.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The Runway will meet the newly presented team of Shelby Wylde and Georgia South, Wild Wild South.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Sorg explains his goal of presenting fresh matches and unfamiliar combinations.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facade versus Ricochet&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  A viewer asks for a complete Facade–Ricochet rivalry.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade remembers facing Ricochet in a chaotic CZW Aerial Assault match that also featured Ruckus and AR Fox.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He confirms that Ricochet was already remarkably smooth and welcomes another match.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;JCW’s evolution&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The group contrasts older, loosely produced Gathering matches with JCW’s current presentation.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade argues that a more accessible product can attract viewers outside established Juggalo culture.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Dangerous stipulations are now more effective when used for meaningful stories instead of appearing automatically.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Gore Games is presented as the major violent spectacle on the Bloodymania card.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gathering of the Juggalos memories&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Sorg and Facade recall poorly lit matches, rings moved by heavy equipment, flashlight wrestling, and shows continuing until sunrise.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  They discuss how audiences have learned that throwing objects can prevent wrestlers from delivering the performances fans want.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Faygo memories, vintage branding, and earlier JCW experiences provide several side trips.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facade’s JCW World Championship opportunity&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade explains his path through the JCW American Championship picture.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He will challenge World Champion Josh Bishop in a three-way also involving American Champion Father Bronson.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  A winner-take-all stipulation is discussed as a possibility, not a confirmed match rule.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade hopes Vanilla Ice might provide a live “Ninja Rap” entrance.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bloodymania card&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The discussed lineup includes James Storm and Cocaine versus Mr. Anderson and Stephon Smith.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Sonny Kiss, Haley J, J-Rod, Mickey Knuckles, Caleb Konley, Kerry Morton, EC3, Willie Mack, Too Tough Tony, Yabo the Clown, Ruffo the Clown, Donovan Dijak, Big Vito, and others are mentioned.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Bloodymania will stream free on YouTube at approximately 2 a.m. Eastern Saturday morning.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facade’s short-notice Power Slap fight&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade received the call while teaching at a parkour gym.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He accepted only days before the event without a dedicated training camp.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He reduced his weight from approximately 179 pounds to 169.5.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He expected the striking order to be redrawn but learned he would have to receive the first slap.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade believes the referee moved him out of his trained defensive posture before the strike.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  He credits Bougie with delivering a legitimate, clean slap and holds no personal animosity toward him.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Facade is reluctant to compete again unless he receives the first strike.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Power Slap safety and officiating&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Other competitors’ experiences are used to question defensive positioning and officiating consistency.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  A broken arm, fighters declining unsafe situations, and commentary that ignored Facade’s short-notice status are discussed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Raj Dhesi’s victory over Jake Hager is highlighted as an emotional comeback.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The sport’s growing international schedule and involvement of wrestlers, athletes, and online creators are examined.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wrestlers finding opportunities elsewhere&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  Power Slap, Banana Ball, American Gladiators, MMA, and visual art are presented as alternate paths.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;  The hosts appreciate seeing wrestlers turn their personalities and athletic skills into new opportunities.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;“What We Learned” breakdown&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The chat’s lesson:&lt;/strong&gt; Solo Sikoa works surprisingly well as a babyface, while Roman Reigns’ order preventing Jacob Fatu from attacking LA Knight explains Jacob’s unusual inaction. The Usos also appear to have become Roman’s clear seconds-in-command.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Professor T-Pop’s lesson:&lt;/strong&gt; Rey Mysterio still refuses to age. His match with Chad Gable delivered match-of-the-year-level lucha action, while Gable’s increasing ability to blur the line between himself and El Grande Americano continues to strengthen the character.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mad Mike’s lesson:&lt;/strong&gt; Even experienced talkers sometimes need stronger boundaries or scripting. CM Punk’s endometriosis reference during his exchange with Kevin Owens was confusing, needlessly insensitive, and weaker than the material available within the story. Mike believes Owens is carrying the more effective side of the feud.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sorg’s lesson:&lt;/strong&gt; Wrestling is most rewarding when there is still room to experience it as a fan. Attending the relaxed 2PW fire department show—without being responsible for the entire production—helped him reconnect with old friends and remember what drew him to wrestling.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facade’s extension of the lesson:&lt;/strong&gt; Wrestling has taken him from local shows to touring with musicians and competing in unexpected arenas. His advice is to pause, recognize those opportunities, and appreciate where the work has led.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The larger takeaway:&lt;/strong&gt; A passion project can become so focused on logistics and business that the passion disappears. Everyone involved should remember that they choose to be there, protect their energy, and leave situations that no longer justify the cost. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

<li><p><strong>Mad Mike’s lesson:</strong> Even experienced talkers sometimes need stronger boundaries or scripting.

<li><p><strong>Sorg’s lesson:</strong> Wrestling is most rewarding when there is still room to experience it as a fan. Attending the relaxed 2PW fire department show—without being responsible for the entire production—helped him reconnect with old friends and remember what drew him to wrestling.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Facade’s extension of the lesson:</strong> Wrestling has taken him from local shows to touring with musicians and competing in unexpected arenas. His advice is to pause, recognize those opportunities, and appreciate where the work has led.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>The larger takeaway:</strong> A passion project can become so focused on logistics and business that the passion disappears. Everyone involved should remember that they choose to be there, protect their energy, and leave situations that no longer justify the cost.</p></li>

    <![CDATA[<p>The “Neon Ninja” Facade joins Sorg and Mad Mike for a wide-ranging Wrestling Mayhem Show covering championship drama, lucha libre, JCW’s evolution, Power Slap controversy, and the importance of remembering why wrestling is supposed to be fun.</p>

<p>The show opens with Chelsea Green’s emotional response to suffering an orbital injury immediately after her championship victory. The crew praises Green’s fiery babyface promo, the crowd’s investment in her journey, and WWE’s decision to give her 30 days to return and defend the title. They also examine the strength of WWE’s women’s championships, Fatal Influence’s fast rise, and Facade’s personal experience working with Green earlier in her career.</p>

<p>WWE’s growing relationship with AAA leads to a larger lucha discussion. The hosts consider a potential Penta–Rey Fenix tournament final, Roman Reigns wrestling in Mexico, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr.’s Raw appearance, the AAA Cruiserweight Championship appearing on NXT, and WWE adjusting its schedule around football and other media partnerships.</p>

<p>The independent wrestling roundup includes 2PW’s Battle of the Barrel, RWA’s upcoming Renegade Rumble, and the final two Sorgstock match announcements: Brianna Bands against Reese Hayes and The Runway against Wild Wild South.</p>

<p>Facade then looks ahead to the Gathering of the Juggalos and Bloodymania. He discusses JCW’s transition from chaotic, insider-driven wrestling toward a more polished and accessible product—without abandoning attractions like Gore Games. Most importantly, Facade previews his three-way JCW World Heavyweight Championship opportunity against Josh Bishop and JCW American Champion Father Bronson.</p>

<p>The conversation shifts to Facade’s latest Power Slap appearance. He explains accepting the fight on extremely short notice, cutting nearly ten pounds, entering without a full training camp, and being knocked out by a clean strike from Power Slap opponent Bougie. Facade also raises concerns about how a referee repositioned his stance immediately before the slap, discusses competitor safety, and reveals what it would take to bring him back.</p>

<p>Finally, “What We Learned” covers Rey Mysterio’s seemingly ageless performance against Chad Gable, CM Punk’s misguided promo material against Kevin Owens, the latest Bloodline power structure, and Sorg rediscovering his enthusiasm for wrestling at a relaxed community show.</p>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, Occupy Pro Wrestling, and Indy Wrestling US!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Todd DeFazio of Idiot Radio returns to the show this week.  He is joined by Mad Mike, Mainstream Matt, Larry, and Sorg, as they're on the heels of Money in the Bank.  This week's topics include:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Reading Rainbow meets Wrestling with Nino Wrestles the World.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg may be cashing in MITB on Idiot Radio's belt.&lt;br&gt;
NXT Takeover was this past weekend - a/k/a I'm sorry Sunday night show.&lt;br&gt;
Matt likes NXT because it has a happy ending.&lt;br&gt;
It was nice to see Daniel Eads make a cameo appearance (and get his butt kicked a little) on NXT Takeover.&lt;br&gt;
NXT is like the Bachelor / Bachelorette party to the WWE marriage.&lt;br&gt;
Big Cass and WWE are going their separate ways?&lt;br&gt;
James Ellsworth returned - the highlight of MITB!&lt;br&gt;
So....Rhonda Rousey, guys.&lt;br&gt;
WWE is the equivalent of wrestling Walmart.&lt;br&gt;
How do you know if you're in an abusive relationship with wrestling? Asking for a friend.&lt;br&gt;
When it Reigns it bores! (Thanks for that one Idiot Radio!)&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is thinking that this year's MITB (men's match) was solid. It pretty much had everyone expected to be in it, and it wasn't obvious who was going to win it.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg is pitching Rhonda Rousey as the Andre the Giant of the current women's division.&lt;br&gt;
In a time long, long away - in a galaxy far, far away, the UK Tournament is happening in some capacity.&lt;br&gt;
Also - We're getting a NXT UK! Woooo!&lt;br&gt;
The New Day took on The Elite for a Street Fighter battle at E3. It was as amazing as we could have ever hoped!&lt;br&gt;
If anything happens to Xavier Woods in WWE, he's got a solid background to be a videogamer.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg just did some math. There is 14 hours of new wrestling content - in the US - each week.&lt;br&gt;
To clarify, we're talking Bubba the Bulldog, not Bubba the Love Sponge as an inspiration for Todd.&lt;br&gt;
This week's Big Question: Along the lines of F**&lt;em&gt;/Marry/Kill - If you could hire someone to WWE, fire someone from WWE, and return a WWE alum, who would your picks be?&lt;br&gt;
Rusev Day happened to fall on Rey Mysterio Day!&lt;br&gt;
We saw the obituary for El Jefe, and we're talking some Lucha Underground observations.&lt;br&gt;
In Lucha Underground we trust!&lt;br&gt;
What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?&lt;br&gt;
Billed from the back of the Hot Topic, it's Aleister Black.&lt;br&gt;
When you realize of the Enzo / Cass/ Carmella trio that Carmella is the one who's left behind - with Gold. *Mind Blown&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Remember that poster we were giving away?  We took our list of Patreon supporters, booted up WWE 2K16, and let the bots settle it out.  Congratulations to Bradley for winning the Skyscraper poster! Want to catch the Patreon bot fight we used to determine the winner? See it here.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Want a chance to win a Blockers poster?  Become our patreon for a chance to win! (Even if it's for $1.)&lt;/p&gt;

King of Trios is the same weekend as All In. THIS is why we &lt;3 wrestling.<br>
The Rey Mysterio backpack may be the scariest thing we’ve seen in a while.<br>
This week’s Big Question: What is the most singable/earworm WWE entrance music?<br>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, Occupy Pro Wrestling, and Indy Wrestling US!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have a full studio this week as we're joined by Mambo Italiano and Calvin Couture of Golden Chic International.  As for the mayhem crew, Mad Mike has returned from WrestleMania, and Sorg and Larry are keeping our guests company in Sorgatron Media studio as we talk about:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mad Mike is getting us all caught up on his visit to WrestleMania. WMS&lt;br&gt;
If Mambo Italiano is The Miz, does that make Calvin Couture the Miztourage?&lt;br&gt;
What do you get when you have some former WWE stars at a local high school? IWC Wrestling Night of the Superstars! (So we're going to take a moment to talk about some great moments from the show.)&lt;br&gt;
Mambo Italiano appreciated some quality time with Mark Henry, while Calvin Couture had a moment with Jack Swagger at Night of the Superstars.&lt;br&gt;
The BIG news in WWE is the Superstar Shakeup. We caught the RAW shakeup last night, and are catching the Smackdown shakeup results as we're recording this week's podcast.&lt;br&gt;
Mad Mike is suffering from some TNA PTSD with this Superstar Shakeup.&lt;br&gt;
Is Jeff Hardy angling for a Hell in a Cell spot?&lt;br&gt;
It would be more efficient to let us know who's staying where during the Superstar Shakeup.&lt;br&gt;
Dear WWE - Give us visuals on this Superstar Shakeup and tournaments. The NCAA does well with March Madness for a reason. ;)&lt;br&gt;
Now we're on to the big news in WWE this week - the John Cena and Nikki Bella break-up.&lt;br&gt;
Thanks to Mikey and Big Bob for giving us the perfect emotional response to the Nikki Bella and John Cena break-up.&lt;br&gt;
The Miz and Maryse played the long-game in their feud against Nikki Bella and John Cena.&lt;br&gt;
With everyone headed to Smackdown are they going to stretch it to a third hour?&lt;br&gt;
The Greatest Royal Rumble is the same day as The Avengers?!?!?! &lt;em&gt;collective mayhem happy dance&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
We've found Brock Lesnar's weakness - pancakes.&lt;br&gt;
We're talking about X-Pac's dog!&lt;br&gt;
We're talking a little bit of IMPACT.&lt;br&gt;
Mad Mike loves him some Brian Cage.&lt;br&gt;
The key is to have creativity with just the right amount of a leash from management.&lt;br&gt;
Part of the problem with non-WWE wrestling today is getting yourself out there for your audience to find you.&lt;br&gt;
This week's Big Question: Now that John Cena and Nikki Bella’s engagement is officially off, who will be the rebound?&lt;br&gt;
When Carson Daly becomes relevant during a wrestling discussion.&lt;br&gt;
Mambo Italiano had a moment with Honky Tonk Man a month(ish) ago.&lt;br&gt;
What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?&lt;br&gt;
Our good friend, Rizz is raising money and awareness through the Dick’s Sporting Goods Foundation Team Pittsburgh 2018 Pittsburgh Marathon.

We're a few days removed from NXT Takeover, the Royal Rumble, and a host of other wrestling shows over the weekend - which means we have a TON to talk about:WMS&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The worst thing for Sorg - when he can't recognize local wrestlers in their street clothes.&lt;br&gt;
So much rumbling happened this weekend! We're giving our thoughts.&lt;br&gt;
Royal Rumble appearance of Rey Mysterio confused us after watching the last season of Lucha Underground.&lt;br&gt;
We have mixed reviews of the return of The Hurricane from Royal Rumble.&lt;br&gt;
We're crossing the wrestling streams because of NJPW, WWE, and IMPACT happenings and shuffles.&lt;br&gt;
We're fans of all kinds of wrestling.&lt;br&gt;
OH: I met him one time at a funeral...&lt;br&gt;
Welcome to Wrestle Kingdom two years ago WWE fans.&lt;br&gt;
The Women's Rumble exceeded many of our expectations.&lt;br&gt;
Sorg wants a Total Taker show with Undertaker and Michelle McCool.&lt;br&gt;
We're following the #JacobsForMayor campaign, because Kane.&lt;br&gt;
Royal Rumble had matches other than rumbly things. Things happened.&lt;br&gt;
Braun Strowman teaching Alexa Bliss how to flip a car is the best thing ever.&lt;br&gt;
Mad Mike was in the same building as Ray Rowe, Ricochet, and EC3 this weekend.&lt;br&gt;
We're rebranding Ricochet as Rick O'Shea so he can keep his name.&lt;br&gt;
Mad Mike and Larry are teaming up to take on War Machine for the Tag Titles.&lt;br&gt;
We're talking some NXT Takeover and Johnny Wrestling.&lt;br&gt;
We're talking some Kassius Ohno options with NXT.&lt;br&gt;
Holy $#!% Adam Cole match at NXTTakeover.&lt;br&gt;
As big a night Royal Rumble was for Japan, NXT Takeover was just as big for Cleveland.&lt;br&gt;
This week's Big Question: Who left from IMPACT Wrestling do you want to see pop up in WWE?&lt;br&gt;
It's Mayhem Mania time!&lt;br&gt;
What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?&lt;br&gt;
We learned collaboratively that Jaye Cooper thinks he can take on Ray Rowe. (For the record - we vehemently disagree.)&lt;br&gt;
Fan of the show, Brandon Mynatt, will be a participant in the 2018 Special Olympics as part of the Team Missouri Bowling Team.
