The jannetty of VOW
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.
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.
Jeff, thank you for the phenomenal upgrade in co-hosts! You two are the only reasons to waste a second on RAW.
