  • Great podcast!

    Love the podcast guys. It’s nice to have a show dedicated to AEW. So sick of the AEW hate online from WWE sycophants. Keep up the great work!

  • With a lot of noise this stands out.

    There are a lot of wrestling podcasts. There are several who cover aew. But imo this was one if the better shows. Strong hosting with knowledge of the aew product. Good production. There is like one issue with maybe being a bit ride colored glasses and some gaps due to being just fans who have not been in the business. Though imo this is a strength of the show. A long time podcast listener I miss the shows who didn’t have famous people etc. worth a subscribe.
