  • Great coverage of the mainstream pro wrestling scene

    Mainly focusing on WWE and AEW, this podcast does a great job of covering the latest general news, as well as happenings from the week’s wrestling TV. I don’t watch much WWE these days, and STR helps me to keep up with the latest from that company.

  • Wonderful

    This is the only podcast I keep up with every week. The dynamic between Rob and Jeff is hilarious. Most wrestling podcasts have become overwhelming negative but STR has a good balance. I usually save it for a commute and it does not disappoint.

    Edited in 2021: it’s ok. They have bad takes though. I kid.
