EXPRESSVPN - Get an extra three months FREE of the #1 trusted VPN at http://www.expressvpn.com/solomonster Vince McMahon is in BIG trouble now that we've learned he's under federal investigation for sexual assault and sex trafficking, but his problems are about to go from bad to worse after the lawyer for John Laurinaitis threw him under the Lex Express this week. Solomonster talks about the new details we've learned, why those NDAs may not be worth the paper they're printed on and the laughably delusional claim that Laurinaitis is now making. CM Punk is also OUT of Wrestlemania and it's wreaking havoc on the card, but not as much as what we saw on Smackdown... one of the BIGGEST CREATIVE BLUNDERS in WWE history with The Rock, Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. He's HEATED about this even moreso now than he was on Friday night and has a LOT to say about the situation, why it happened, why Triple H should be PARANOID right now, the one thing that makes him think there COULD BE a swerve involved and the ways they can still fix the mistake they made. PLUS... the AEW Rankings are out and are exactly what he feared they would be... Mick Foley has something TERRIBLE in mind for his 60th birthday... the big free agent that WWE or AEW should pick up, and why they may be resistant to do so... and YOUR QUESTIONS about all things Rock/Roman/Cody, why WWE has a music problem and more. This is not one to be missed! *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for February 2nd with one of the most frustratingly awful creative decisions this company has ever made with The Rock politicking his way into the Wrestlemania main event over Cody Rhodes for a match with Roman Reigns... Royal Rumble, be damned. You'll hear a lot of things about this being a dream match, Rock being a huge star, Cody's story can wait, Hulk Hogan's phoney fucking record and such... don't let that distract you from the fact that not only did they make Cody look like an absolute geek, but they completely buried Seth Rollins and the World Heavyweight Title six feet under.

We're barely three weeks into the new year and already have the story of the year with the news of Kazuchika Okada LEAVING New Japan Pro Wrestling. I've got LOTS to say about the news, including the pros and cons of Okada signing with WWE and AEW, where he's likely to land and what it means for the future of NJPW. And less than a week before the Royal Rumble, Seth Rollins may have just thrown Wrestlemania plans into disarray with his injured knee, and I've got all the potential scenarios that could play out from it, including the route I would take if the World Heavyweight Championship needs to be vacated. PLUS... John Cena tells PEOPLE Magazine that his time in WWE is coming to an end... R-Truth details how his quad tear nearly ended his career... Samoa Joe and HOOK do some numbers on Dynamite and the important thing for HOOK now coming out of it... why Revolution is shaping up to be one of the biggest AEW shows of all time...

Solomonster discusses Nick Nemeth being revealed as the big TNA surprise signing, Jack Perry resurfacing in NJPW and ripping up his AEW contract, Trinity losing her Knockouts championship and Chris Jericho being involved in the best wrestling streetfight IN YEARS. Then we get down to brass tacks with Triple H booking JINDER MAHAL in a World Championship match against Seth Rollins and the chaos that ensued on social media involving Tony Khan, who did more to promote Jinder Mahal in ONE WEEK than WWE has in the last seven years. Then he discusses the latest on this death triangle with Roman Reigns, The Rock and Cody Rhodes, including a report that Roman will NOT be at the Elimination Chamber event, Cody saying he's not flinching when it comes to being in the WM40 main event, talk of a possible TRIPLE THREAT MATCH at Wrestlemania and why that would be a terrible idea... Kevin Dunn's replacement has been named and he's already involved in a major scandal being BANNED from Emmy award consideration... why Kevin Patrick's job is in jeopardy on Smackdown and who would be likely to replace him... thoughts on Sting choosing THE YOUNG BUCKS as his final opponents at Revolution and one idea AEW might be considering for his REAL final opponent... Dark Side of the Ring gets renewed for another season and thoughts on possible episode topics... and YOUR QUESTIONS on WWE protecting Roman Reigns at all costs, one storyline pitch for SHEAMUS finishing his story at Wrestlemania, matches you thought would be great but left you disappointed, Undertaker names his Mount Rushmore of BIG MEN, why The Nasty Boys had beef with The Outsiders in WCW, and the influence of Lucha Underground on modern pro wrestling.

MJF and Samoa Joe have also agreed to defend the ROH tag team titles next week against The Devil's henchmen, but the more interesting story is only first playing out between MJF and Swerve Strickland. With any luck, that will be our Revolution main event. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for December 18th with Gunther and Miz having a banger of a match for the Intercontinental championship, and TWO tag team title matches, including new champions crowned on the ladies side. Plus, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre have a conversation that leads to physicality ahead of their DAY ONE match, and no CM Punk on the show now that he has already declared for the Royal Rumble and, frankly, there wasn't anything for him to really do anyway. Oh, and Kofi Claus showed up to give presents to all the people who have been nice this year.

With reports this week of a meeting between WWE officials and Warner Brothers Discovery executives about the future of Monday Night Raw, this should be most concerning to Tony Khan... and frankly, to all wrestling fans. I'll explain why, as well how CM Punk may have helped open a door that was previously thought to be closed, what WWE is looking to be paid for Raw, how the NBA media rights could have a direct impact on the situation, why Raw on TNT or TBS would not mean DEATH for AEW, but it could mean a very different AEW and Tony Khan's comments about it from the Final Battle media scrum. PLUS... WWE and MLW reach a settlement in their antitrust lawsuit... why CM Punk and Seth Rollins need each other to achieve their ultimate objective, and thoughts on the comparisons between Seth's promo on Raw and Hangman Page's promo on Punk last year leading into Double or Nothing... the latest details on Liv Morgan's arrest this week... Cody Rhodes says MJF will end up in WWE one day... Charlotte Flair out NINE MONTHS with a devastating injury at the worst possible time, what it could mean for Bianca Belair at Wrestlemania and how Tiffany Stratton could be involved... two BIG names return on Smackdown and where it all may be leading at the Royal Rumble... Kenny Omega out INDEFINITELY and in the hospital with diverticulitis, how long he's been sick and the ridiculous reason people claimed this is KARMA for him... fake outrage over a tweet by a FOX employee and Mark Briscoe's rational, adult response to the whole thing... and YOUR QUESTIONS on Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank, Ken Shamrock making a cameo in the Royal Rumble, the most protected heel in the wrestling business, the celebrity inductee for the 2024 Hall of Fame and how I would've booked Bret Hart's WCW debut and first year in the company. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

CM Punk went out on Smackdown and cut the promo most people were waiting for, making his mission statement clear as it relates to the Royal Rumble. Seth Rollins also spoke to Sports Illustrated and threw more gasoline on the fire in his "feud" with Punk, and all roads lead to Wrestlemania. Solomonster maps it all out and explains why WWE is very fortunate right now to be so strong on their babyface side, in a way they haven't been in many years. He also addresses the latest report on Okada becoming a free agent and considering a jump to WWE or AEW, as well as his shocking return to TNA Wrestling in January... another potential big defection coming soon, this time from the Knockouts division in Impact... it's the END OF AN ERA for WWE Home Video and thoughts on the decline of the physical media category... how AEW has completely dropped the ball with Konosuke Takeshita and why they cannot do the same with Swerve Strickland... reacting to a Peter Rosenberg clip talking about Tony Khan becoming what Vince McMahon once was, why he's wrong and what the REAL advantage was that AEW had over WWE for a lot of talent and fans that they no longer do... a full review for NXT DEADLINE with an appearance by CM Punk, a new North American champion crowned, the Iron Survivor Challenge winners and the story of what killed Baron Corbin's push in 2017 when he hit rockbottom with his failed MITB cash-in... then it's a FAT ASS MAILBAG with tons of questions on Godzilla Minus One, how to get Cody Rhodes to Roman Reigns without winning the Royal Rumble, why Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk DOES need the championship to headline Night One, the return of Sasha Banks to WWE, taking Tammy Sytch out of the Hall of Fame, Gunther dropping the IC title in a LADDER MATCH, why Tamina Snuka was never booked to be Women's champion and a potential WWE Hall of Fame class for 2024.

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode! After 10 years away, and after being terminated by AEW only two months ago, CM Punk has found his way back to WWE. It was a SHOCKING return at the end of Survivor Series and I'm not afraid to admit, I didn't think it was going to happen. But I've got all the details on why it happened, when it all came together, Triple H's comments about Punk coming back, the video of an angry Seth Rollins reacting to Punk's return, Drew McIntyre also being said to be upset last night and so much more. This has thrown the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania into CHAOS now, which can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on whether or not you are a Punk fan. I also have a lot to say about his AEW departure and why Tony Khan was still right to get rid of him when he did, and why this is Punk's last chance to write the final chapter of his story the way he wants it to be written. But there's another aspect to this story that is being glossed over that I think may be the MOST significant thing to come out of the last 24 hours and I'll tell you what that is. ALSO... Triple H politely speaks the truth out loud about Jade Cargill and why we haven't seen her back on WWE television yet... MJF is said to have already re-signed with AEW and NOT spoken with WWE, and why this is the least surprising news of the week... AEW Continental Classic updates, what I think the finals should be and the mistake I think Tony Khan made on Wednesday night... NWA Powerrr episodes QUIETLY added to The CW App, the reaction from those inside the promotion to the news and the MAJOR NWA name that could be on their way out of the company at the end of this year... responding to the people mocking the idea of Bray Wyatt being a deserving induction into the WWE Hall of Fame... can AEW Rampage be saved?... and was there ANYTHING good to come out of the later years of WCW? *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Episode 835 has the fallout from AEW Full Gear, including the most violent match I think I've ever seen, and Will Ospreay as the major new signing Tony Khan was talking about. I've been seeing a lot of comments about Ospreay not being a "mainstream star", as if this is somehow the criteria now for judging pro wrestling signings, until you realize there's actually a very simple reason for it, and it's pathetic (as are the people who peddle it).

Solomonster reviews the go home edition of WWE Smackdown before Crown Jewel, a taped show from last week that wasn't bad, but was completely missable. We got good stuff in the main event between Bianca Belair and Bayley, and John Cena burning Solo Sikoa on the microphone in what may well be his final Smackdown appearance, but outside of that, it was largely filler.

Plus, MJF searches for partners to tag with against Bullet Club Gold, Paul Wight returning to the ring even though it looks like he can barely move and Adam Copeland agrees to partner with Sting and Darby Allin at Full Gear.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for October 30th, the final Raw before Crown Jewel, with a hard push towards the Cody Rhodes/Damian Priest match and Seth Rollins against Drew McIntyre with two excellent promos from both men. The Creed Brothers from NXT also answered the Alpha Academy's open challenge and had a great debut. But WWE is also trying again with The Miz as a babyface and it never works in the long term.

This past Tuesday saw AEW and NXT in a head-to-head battle that brought out the absolute worst in wrestling fans, but it also seemed to send Tony Khan into a tailspin after the numbers came out. I'll break down the back and forth between the two sides leading up to the shows, Tony's reaction to the ratings loss and the trolling he received online, why it makes AEW look bad, why it's so personal to him and a plea to him going forward, plus a history lesson for those who don't think Vince McMahon would ever be caught dead reacting in a similar way. AND SPEAKING OF VINCE MCMAHON... it's looking more and more like he may have gotten played by Ari Emanuel, who publically cited McMahon this week as one of the reasons for the recent TKO stock drop, while Endeavor gives Triple H full creative control over the WWE product, the changes we're already seeing and why this is a GREAT thing... the latest on CM Punk and a possible return to WWE, which doesn't look very likely... thoughts on Nick Aldis being named the new Smackdown general manager, the return of dueling GMs for Raw and Smackdown and Kevin Owens being traded back to the blue brand... the return of Roman Reigns, how WWE all but confirmed the main event for WrestleMania 40 this week and LA Knight challenging for the championship in Saudi Arabia?... the latest on Randy Orton's return and how it could factor into Survivor Series... Karrion Kross makes a surprising revelation about Bray Wyatt and Wrestlemania... Billy Corgan announces the return of the territory system and TWO television deals for the NWA. Finally, WWE recently aired a FOX special ranking the Top 25 Moments in Smackdown history and it was a doozie of a list. I'll go through the entire thing and then rank my own TOP 15 LIST covering the greatest moments in Smackdown history.

Solomonster has a lot to say about both men, their careers, their most memorable matches and moments and the impact they made on the industry. He also shares his thoughts on the death of former Price is Right host Bob Barker, who died today and once made a very memorable appearance on Monday Night Raw. But it's not all doom and gloom... he runs down the full card for AEW All In at Wembley Stadium with PREDICTIONS for the biggest show in AEW history, including who walks out as champion between MJF and Adam Cole, the likely match for CM Punk at All Out next weekend, Chris Jericho attacking Will Ospreay at today's RevPro show and how to book Eddie Kingston now through Grand Slam in NYC... the latest chapter in THE MANY LIES OF HULK HOGAN as he makes the rounds to promote his new CBD line... Edge REFUTES a Pro Wrestling Torch report about WWE rejecting his contract request and how likely it is that he ends up going to AEW... The Judgment Day problem plaguing Monday Night Raw... Devon Nicholson SUED by the referee he mutilated two years ago at an independent show... and NXT HEATWAVE thoughts on the amazing match between Ilya Dragunov and Trick Williams, the Global Heritage Invitational with NXT running it's own G1 Climax-style round robin tournament and the names already announced for it! *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for August 25th, paying tribute to Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk who both passed away this week. LA Knight and Finn Balor did battle in the main event as two of Wyatt's past rivals, and Cody Rhodes made an appearance to talk about one of his father's greatest rivals in the Funker. They will be missed. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Solomonster reviews AEW presents All In London with more than 80,000 fans expected to pack Wembley Stadium this Sunday, but first, they had one final episode of Dynamite to get through to really sell the show as their biggest of all time. Solomonster recaps the final build for MJF vs. Adam Cole, an excellent contract signing with Chris Jericho and Will Ospreay and a couple of talent changes to matches on the PPV, including the return of Santana and Ortiz. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for August 21st with yet ANOTHER main event featuring Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn against The Judgment Day. I sometimes feel like I'm watching a replay of the same show every week. At least the crowd in Quebec City was livlier than they were in Winnipeg last week, plus we had a very good Intercontinental title match between GUNTHER and Chad Gable with a finish that keeps the issue between them going into Payback. We also found out what Shinsuke Nakamura whispered to Seth Rollins last week in what was the best promo of Nakamura's career. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode! WWE and AEW both set impressive business records this week that should be applauded, but it wasn't all good news for Tony Khan. One half of his tag team champions was arrested on an aggravated assault charge stemming from an incident last month that those in AEW may not have even been aware before the news broke. I've got details on the incident where Cash Wheeler is alleged to have waved a gun at someone, his court appearance, what it means for FTR's match with The Young Bucks at Wembley Stadium and why this is a no-win situation for Tony Khan. But the drama continues... with new reports of CM Punk BANNING people from AEW Collision, including the company's head of Talent Relations, a previously unreported backstage incident with Ryan Nemeth at Dynamite and more on Punk's comments last week about Hangman Page. This is a mess of Tony Khan's making that only he and he alone can fix, but will he? Plus, some good comes out of the worst match in AEW Dynamite history, and Darby Allin "shoots" on the state of the TNT championship... why EDGE may have just wrestled his last match, rumors of him possibly showing up at AEW All In and why it won't happen, and where he ranks all time... Lacey Evans GONE from WWE, the many failed attempts at getting her over and why she got Sgt. Slaughter and his daughter so upset... Asuka goes on a BIZARRE Twitter tirade on the Japanese media and how STARDOM was created to personally destroy her... an idea on how to get Cody Rhodes back in the ring with Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania WITHOUT having to win the Royal Rumble... the latest legal update on Tammy Sytch and why she is now facing up to 25 YEARS behind bars... and YOUR QUESTIONS on potential Dark Side of the Ring episode topics and the five greatest matches ever held in Canada! *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for August 16th with Jeff Hardy and Jeff Jarrett in a Texas Chainsaw Masssacre Deathmatch, a match we would find out later was for a good cause. Sadly, that good cause did not include the viewing experience, and it will go down as the worst match in Dynamite history. Sure, there may have been some awful matches before, but none that dragged on for as long. But on the bright side, MJF and Adam Cole did the best promotion yet for All In at Wembley Stadium, while the rest of the card was fleshed out with very mixed results. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

Thanks to BetterHelp for sponsoring this week's episode! Welp, here we go again. After an excellent main event on AEW Collision last night, CM Punk couldn't help but take shots at Hangman Adam Page, which ended up overshadowing the show itself. Were his comments all part of a plan to get Punk and Page back in the ring at All Out next month? I would certainly hope so, but if not, Tony Khan is getting exactly what he paid for. And as AEW continues to break attendance records for it's Wembley Stadium show in two weeks, I've got a lot of thoughts about the card for the show so far, and the impact of running back-to-back PPVs like they're doing. Plus... when the Endeavor deal for WWE is now expected to be completed, Triple H being left off the new Board of Directors and why this "story" is really a whole lot of nothing... the latest on Bray Wyatt's recovery from his "life-threatening" illness, Randy Orton's return to the ring and Sonya Deville's ACL surgery, including my thoughts on how to handle the situation with the Women's tag team titles... Jimmy Uso explains himself on Smackdown, Jey Uso "leaves" WWE, thoughts on them possibly stretching this story out until WrestleMania 40 and the one thing I hope to see WWE do out of this with Roman Reigns... the end of Austin Theory as United States champion and what to do with him now... thoughts on the end of the G1 Climax, Sanada's injury and why Eddie Kingston has been the best story in wrestling this past month... and a full DARK SIDE OF THE RING season finale review on the cautionary tale of Marty Jannetty, including why The Rockers were fired after only two weeks in WWE, the incident with Chuck Austin being paralyzed in the ring, the vicious hotel room fight between Jannetty and Shawn Michaels, the Barber Shop Window incident, why their WrestleMania VIII match never happened, his short-lived WWE returns in 2005 and 2006 and what led to the end of both of them, and his Facebook tale about having murdered a man when Jannetty was only 13 years old... and YOUR QUESTIONS on how to get the Intercontinental title off Gunther at the Royal Rumble, is LA Knight this generation's DDP, what would have become of Brian Pillman had he returned to WCW, what to do if LA Knight continues to gain popularity and Cody Rhodes starts to falter, and what's the greatest unplanned moment in wrestling history? *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

LA Knight fever has been sweeping across WWE for months now as the chants grow louder each week. Despite this, he doesn't appear to have a match on this year's Summerslam card. I'll addresses the latest rumor of a planned post-Summerslam push and several signs why Knight is actually in a VERY good position right now, but also why that could change quickly if WWE fails to capitalize on things. He also addresses a PWTorch report about Vince McMahon and Triple H being fans of Knight's work, with a warning about the one thing that could end up derailing his planned push, and he doesn't shy away from the past controversies around Knight that led to his first departure from NXT and his exit from Impact Wrestling.

Even worse, they followed up MITB with no time for LA Knight anywhere on the show.

The wrestling world lost a legend in The Iron Sheik this week and Solomonster remembers a man who lived a pretty incredible life, one that wasn't always pretty. He talks about why he fled Iran for the United States, three of the most memorable matches in MSG history he was part of, the incident that got him and Hacksaw Jim Duggan fired from WWE, his rampant drug use and the murder of his oldest daughter.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for June 2nd with Roman Reigns celebrating a thousand days as champion with a new title belt that somehow is a downgrade from what he had before.

Solomonster reviews a very enjoyable post-Double or Nothing edition of AEW Dynamite for May 31st, with Tony Khan announcing the return of CM Punk for the AEW Collision debut, and doing so to a very mixed reaction in the building (and online). Let the fun and games begin. Plus, Don Callis melts in the HEAT generated inside the building in a segment where, at time, it was difficult to hear him because it was so loud. Adam Cole and Britt Baker also wrestle Chris Jericho and Saraya, why it was the right outcome and the match was light years better than their Unsanctioned match last Sunday. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5582990/advertisement

It's a MOTHER'S DAY edition of the Sound Off and the finals of the World Heavyweight Title tournament are now set with Seth Rollins and AJ Styles.

Solomonster reviews WWE Monday Night Raw for May 1st and Night Two of the WWE Draft, a draft that Triple H told us would truly "change the game". He is left wondering how exactly the game has changed as it was a largely predictable event that re-arranged some of the furniture, but as always, it all falls back on how seriously they treat the brand split. Hidden behind the draft was a terribly boring episode of Raw that did little to excite heading into Backlash. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join

It's DRAFT WEEK for WWE and Solomonster is doing his own MOCK DRAFT remaking the Raw and Smackdown rosters and calling up names from NXT to try to freshen things up. He explains who's going where and why, why the titles should NOT be split and why the booking of the WWE women's division is the BIGGEST FAILURE of Triple H so far as the head of creative. Then he gets into the latest on CM Punk returning to AEW, including his planned return date, why he hasn't spoken with The Young Bucks since Brawl Out and why it's completely asinine that it hasn't happened yet, and listing all of the potential opponents for Punk to work with.

Also, Cody Rhodes wins the Royal Rumble and Rhea Ripley punches her ticket to Wrestlemania. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join

Tragedy struck this week when Jay Briscoe, one half of the Ring of Honor tag team champions, was killed in an auto accident just shy of his 39th birthday. Today, I speak candidly on Jamin Pugh, the man, and Jay Briscoe, the wrestler... the circumstances of the accident, a medical update on his two daughters who suffered terrible injuries in the wreck, why The Briscoes will go down as one of the all-time great tag teams, personal memories of some key moments in his career including his time in House of Glory, the controversial tweets that followed him around for his career, why The Briscoes never landed in WWE (and it has nothing to do with tweets) and the HYPOCRISY of Warner Brothers Discovery not allowing Tony Khan to pay tribute to Jay on AEW TV. And then... WE'VE GOT A TON OF NEWS on Vince McMahon's latest hush money payment as part of his settlement with Rita Chatterton... Nick Khan's interview with Bill Simmons talking Vince's return, throwing shade at Tony Khan and one jaw-dropping comment that I could not believe... the major segment CANCELED for Raw XXX this Monday, what it's being replaced with and what it means for the status of The Rock at Wrestlemania...

On a MONSTER three hour episode, it was another week filled with McMahon family drama with Vince McMahon voted IN as the Executive Chairman of the Board and Stephanie McMahon OUT, resigning as Co-CEO of the company just days after telling employees there would be no management changes. Solomonster discusses why things may not be as they seem, the talent meeting Triple H led backsage at Smackdown and what he revealed about Vince McMahon's role, the shareholder lawsuit against Vince and why it will likely go nowhere, as well as the rumored SALE to Saudi Arabia, why a lot of wrestling reporters were left with egg on their faces and reports that Tony Khan and his family are interested in buying WWE (LOL).

I've got a LOT to say about how this entire situation came to be, the letters back and forth between Vince McMahon and the Board members letting him know that they did NOT think it would be wise for him to return in the way that he wanted, his predictable response to that, the REAL reason why this is happening, what it means for creative and the current management team and running through the list of potential buyers, including who I think the likeliest choice would be. This is a VERY big deal and will have a huge impact, for better or worse, on the future of that company. But believe or not, there's other news as well... including a possible end to the practice of non-compete clauses and how it would affect pro wrestling...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for January 4th, the first Dynamite of the new year and it had a vibe very similar to those early shows with a hot Seattle crowd and a new TNT champion crowned with Darby Allin beating Samoa Joe.

20 years ago, WWE held the 2002 Survivor Series from Madison Square Garden and debuted a brand new match concept called THE ELIMINATION CHAMBER with six men competing for the World Heavyweight Championship.

After squashing CM Punk last week to become the Undisputed AEW World Champion, Jon Moxley threw out an open contract for a match this Sunday, which was later accepted by CM Punk. While the promo work from both men was very good, there was one glaring logic hole that could not be overlooked in how they handled things. On the other hand, Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay shared a ring in the Trios Tournament Semi-Final and it was everything you would expect. Also included are predictions for all of the matche at All Out. *** Follow Solomonster on Twitter for news and opinion: http://www.twitter.com/solomonster Subscribe to the Solomonster Sounds Off on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSolomonster?sub_confirmation=1 Become a Solomonster Sounds Off Channel Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9jcg7mk93fGNqWPMfl_Aig/join

Solomonster discusses the impact his run has had on the company, his match with Jon Moxley being moved from the All Out PPV to Dynamite this week, the fallout from his comments about Hangman Adam Page and his actions causing DRAMA behind the scenes. If it's a work, it could be one of the all-time great builds to a heel turn with MJF coming back to save the day, but if it's not, Tony Khan needs to get his house in order before things spiral out of control.

As AEW prepares for one of its biggest shows of the year, they could be on the verge of losing one of their biggest stars.  Solomonster has all the breaking details about MJF no-showing a fan meet & greet ahead of tonight's Double or Nothing event and booking a flight out of Las Vegas that he apparently did not take, what the issues with him and Tony Khan likely stem from, the differences between this situation and the WWE situation with Sasha Banks and Naomi, and why Wardlow is the one who ultimately gets screwed in this situation as their match appears to be in jeopardy.  He also reflects on the three year anniversary of AEW and how far the company has come in a short period of time... plus, DOUBLE OR NOTHING PREDICTIONS for tonight's 13-match card...

In a week that started with Sasha Banks and Naomi walking out of Monday Night Raw, it ended with them being suspended and stripped of their WWE Women's tag team titles, and things are getting nasty.  Solomonster reacts to the news and where he stands on everything, what the original plans were for them, news on their contracts coming due soon and how that plays into things, why WWE should get rid of the Women's tag team belts, why Sasha Banks would likely end up being unhappy in AEW and lots more.  He also discusses the shocking announcement that Stephanie McMahon is taking a "leave of absence" from WWE... the unification of the Raw and Smackdown tag team titles...

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 11th, a big rebound from last week's show with one of their best in a while.  Including a stunt show main event with Darby Allin and Jeff Hardy that may be the craziest 10 minute match you'll ever see, but only one of them is moving on in the Owen Hart Foundation tournament.  Plus, thoughts on the contract signing segment with Wardlow and MJF, and CM Punk having fun with the Long Island crowd and getting booed out of the building.

Solomonster reviews WWE WrestleMania Backlash 2022, a show that he had little excitement for coming into it but ended up exceeding his expectations.  It was still mostly a filler show, but the action was largely very good and the talent delivered with The Bloodline picking up a win they didn't need, Ronda Rousey winning the Smackdown Women's championship and sending Charlotte Flair off television for a while, and Rhea Ripley joining Judgment Day.

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for May 6th, and runs down the card for WrestleMania Backlash this Sunday with his predictions.  WWE pulled a fast one on its audience by promoting a Winner Take All unification match that they, reportedly, never had any intention of actually delivering.  He also runs down the bracket for the Women's Owen Hart Foundation tournament with thoughts on who the Joker entrant may be.  Get one FREE audio book of your choice when you use audibletrial.com/solomonster to sign up for a 30-day Audible trial!

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for May 4th from Baltimore, the home base of Ring of Honor, which didn't seem to matter to the live crowd during the main event between Deonna Purrazzo and Mercedes Martinez to crown an Undisputed ROH Women's champion.  We also finally had the bracket revealed for the men's Owen Hart Cup tournament, which includes a first round match between Jeff Hardy and Darby Allin.  Let's hope Jeff looks better in that match than he did against Bobby Fish on this show.  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp - start living a happier life today by visiting betterhelp.com/solomonster and get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month!

Solomonster discusses the latest wave of NXT talent cuts, including Dakota Kai and Malcolm Bivens making it clear they did not plan to re-sign with the company when their contracts were up, before diving into Athena's interview this week (the former Ember Moon) with Chris Van Vliet.  It included some very revealing details about her frustrating final few months in WWE and what the women were told about the changes being made to NXT 2.0 in terms of how they were to start dressing.  Plus, Hangman Page against CM Punk is made official for AEW Double or Nothing... the Impact invasion coming to Dynamite this week...

News of the FORBIDDEN DOOR show being hosted by AEW and New Japan has generated a lot of excitement this week, but also, a lot of phony concern from certain fans online about how AEW is failing to attract "casual viewers" with such a show.  Solomonster hasn't seen this many horrendous takes since... well, given this community, probably only a week ago.  He puts these fools in their place and explains why it's okay for Tony Khan to give WRESTLING FANS something fun on his WRESTLING SHOW.  You know, the same wrestling show he got $175 million from WarnerMedia for.  Then, he runs down some potential matches for the show and has news on Kushida leaving WWE at the most opportune of times.  But that's not all... WWE is celebrating 20 YEARS OF RANDY ORTON this week and Solomonster gives his thoughts on Orton's career, the five best Randy Orton matches, and he makes the pitch for a match at WrestleMania 40 that he can't even believe he's suggesting, but there's no doubt it would be a major attraction for that show.  Plus, thoughts on Bret Hart reportedly signing a lucrative deal with WWE... Alexa Bliss expresses frustration to Vince McMahon over her lack of creative direction... why Austin Theory winning the US title from Finn Balor was absolutely the right move...

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for April 22nd.  Roman Reigns still has no announced challenger for WrestleMania Backlash in two weeks, but Drew McIntyre looks likely for the spot based on the events of this show.  Xia Li also reappeared and seemed to have been turned heel while abandoning her gimmick as "The Protector" of the blue brand.  On Rampage, Adam Cole and Tomohiro Ishii gave us a small preview of the "Forbidden Door" PPV, while Jade Cargill defended her TBS title and HOOK actually said a few words.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for April 20th with Tony Khan promising a huge announcement and, this time, he wasn't playing around.  The stars of AEW and New Japan Pro Wrestling will walk through the "Forbidden Door" in June and he's got all the details we know so far, as well as thoughts on potential matches we can see and why catering to their hardcore audience isn't always a bad thing.  In this case, it's pretty damn cool.  Plus, the first tease of an AEW World title match between CM Punk and Hangman Page, two more names qualify for the Owen Hart Cup and more.  Get one FREE audio book of your choice when you use audibletrial.com/solomonster to sign up for a 30-day Audible trial!

It was just two months ago that Solomonster wondered if it would take killing someone to wake up Tammy Sytch after being hit with 11 charges in the state of New Jersey.  Sadly, someone has now lost their life as a result of her reckless actions.  He talks about exactly what happened, why she isn't behind bars right now and minces no words in making it clear how he feels about the situation.  He also addresses Tony Khan and his independent study into fake accounts posting, and bots boosting, negative social media posts about AEW.  While that may be true, he didn't come off well in this at all.  Plus, the messy situation involving Nash Carter being FIRED by WWE and MSK being stripped of the NXT tag team titles...

Solomonster is back with one last review to cap off a busy weekend covering the Raw After WrestleMania show for April 4th.  In the past, this show has been an exciting one, but that no longer appears to be the case.  Cody Rhodes gets a live mic for the first time in six years and makes his mission statement clear in the best segment on an otherwise dull show that included an NXT championship change and MVP turning on Bobby Lashley.  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp - start living a happier life today by visiting betterhelp.com/solomonster and get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month!

Solomonster reviews Night Two of WWE WrestleMania 38 from Dallas, TX on a night where Roman Reigns defeated Brock Lesnar to unify the WWE and Universal titles, but Pat McAfee and Austin Theory stole the show.  And of course, it wouldn't be like old times without Vince McMahon taking the worst Stone Cold Stunner in the history of mankind from Steve Austin.  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp - start living a happier life today by visiting betterhelp.com/solomonster and get 10 PERCENT OFF your first month!

Solomonster reviews NXT Stand & Deliver 2022, the biggest event yet of the NXT 2.0 era, as a matinee show before Night One of WrestleMania 38.  Featuring a surprise finish and Triple H making an appearance to send his last soldier from the Black & Gold era of NXT off on his inevitable voyage to the WWE main roster.

Solomonster opted to review WWE Smackdown and AEW Rampage for April 1st instead of watching the ROH Supercard of Honor show, and quickly realized that he made a terrible mistake.  It's a WrestleMania-edition of Smackdown with this year's Andre the Giant Memorial "Budget Cuts" Battle Royal, and the Intercontinental title being defended because it has developed a sudden allergy to the actual Mania card.  On Rampage, it's a hoss fight between Keith Lee and Powerhouse Hobbs.

Solomonster previews both nights of WWE WrestleMania 38 and gives predictions for all of the matches/segments on the show.  They're calling this year's WrestleMania the most STUPENDOUS of all time, which is defined as something that is "extremely impressive".  This is hardly an "extremely impressive" lineup, but that doesn't mean there aren't things to look forward to and he runs down what those things are.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite for March 30th featuring the debut of Toni Storm as she becomes the first woman to qualify for the Owen Hart Cup tournament.  A lot of good wrestling up and down the card with Bryan Danielson bringing the best out of Wheeler Yuta and FTR teasing a split from MJF and The Pinnacle, plus answering your questions.  It's the first in a ridiculously busy week of streaming. 💪🏻

It was the END OF AN ERA this week with the announcement that Triple H, really the last of the semi-active names from the Attitude Era, has officially retired from the ring and will never wrestle again.  It's been six months since we've gotten any sort of update after his "cardiac event" and he spoke at length this week about suffering from heart failure and how truly close to death he came.  Solomonster has all the details, addresses the elephant in the room, talks about what his true legacy will be and runs down some of the best matches of his career.  Plus, the 2022 New Japan Cup winner is crowned...
