For the second straight year, AEW takes over Wembley Stadium for AEW All In - with a card full of consequences and, in the case of Bryan Danielson, the potential ending of a career.
We take a look at AEW packing 50,000 into the legendary stadium (no mean feat in and of itself!) and which matches we're looking forward to - as well as whether there might be any potential surprises that Tony Khan springs (we're looking at you, Ricochet and Shane McMahon!)
We're also casting our eye over the Bash in Berlin card, talking about why now is the right time for Joe Hendry to win the NXT Championship - and Charlie has some confessions about his distance running training!

It was one hell of a Summerslam - with more than 50,000 people jamming out the Cleveland Browns Stadium for the biggest event of the summer.
Roman Reigns returned, CM Punk and Drew McIntyre finally clashed, Dom betrayed Rhea Ripley - and new champions were crowned!
We break down the whole show on this week's podcast, including where this leaves us heading into Bash in Berlin, the possibilities for War Games, who is over-delivering on the WWE roster right now, and loads, loads more.

There's so much on this week's podcast - from Punk vs Drew being made official for Summerslam to Damian Priest's surprisingly awesome run as a babyface to the pure chaos of Blood and Guts on AEW Dynamite.
Factor in continuing questions over whether Dom and Liv are fooling anyone - let alone Rhea Ripley! - more Joe Hendry greatness, and a brilliant weekend for TNA at Slammiversary, and there's loads for us to get into on this week's podcast.
So, that's exactly what we're going to do!

One of the all-time greats is hanging up his boots, Rhea Ripley has returned to seek vengeance on Liv Morgan, Drew McIntyre has been foiled - again! - in his Money in the Bank cash-in attempt by CM Punk, and MJF has turned heel with a vicious attack on Daniel Garcia on Dynamite.
And honestly, they're just the things we remember from a massive week in professional wrestling, and we're here to talk about it all on this week's Earning The Push.
From who John Cena should face in his last run to why people should be putting some respect on Chelsea Green's name, it's been a huge week - and we can't wait for you to hear our thoughts on it!

Oh, poor Paul Heyman.
He finally stood his ground against the Bloodline - and boy, did he ever pay for it!
But, what sucked for the Heyman character was an AMAZING moment at Madison Square Garden on an all-time great episode of Smackdown.
We get into that on the podcast, along with Mercedes Mone being challenged by Britt Baker at Forbidden Door, a massive Money In The Bank preview and loads, loads more!

If people were worried about the follow-up to the debut of the Wyatt Sicks last week, they didn't need to be.
Bo Dallas and the WWE creative team absolutely smashed it with an amazing follow-up interview that has the wrestling world talking - including us, as we break down why Bo's sitdown with Uncle Howdy worked so well on so many different levels. We're also chatting about Rollins and Priest raising the stakes for their World Championship match at Money in the Bank, how Charlie could get his dream match at Bash in Berlin, why AEW still isn't catching alight and loads more!

This wrestling week has been bonkers.
Genuinely, undeniably, ridiculously bonkers - and we're here to talk about it all!
MJF returns to AEW, Becky Lynch leaves WWE, Jordynne Grace (the TNA Knockouts Champion) rocks up on Tuesday night to challenge the NXT Women's Champion, Gunther and Nia Jax are victorious in Saudi Arabia, Jack Perry gets set on fire... and that's just in one week!
So, a look at King and Queen of the Ring, Double or Nothing, a big Clash at the Castle title announcement and so, so much more!

It's one big weekend of two stacked shows - with both WWE and AEW heading to pay-per-view on Saturday and Sunday respectively.
We've got WWE in Saudi Arabia with King and Queen of the Ring on Saturday; and then, twenty-four-hours later, AEW brings Double or Nothing to our screens.
But despite the build to both shows, we're feeling slightly 'meh' about each of the shows.
Nevertheless, we're pouring through - as we look at a weird twist for Cody Rhodes and Logan Paul, Darby Allin returning for Anarchy In The Arena, who will win the King and Queen of the Ring and lots, lots more!

We called it on last week's show, and it's like Triple H heard us - because Logan Paul has emerged as the new challenger for Cody Rhodes and his Undisputed WWE Championship in Saudi Arabia at King and Queen of the Ring.
We've also got some VERY intriguing brackets in the King and Queen of the Ring, so we break down the potential winners as the tournament heads towards the semi-final stage (including why Charlie is mighty angry at one specific piece of WWE booking!) - plus the build towards Double or Nothing, where Anarchy in the Arena is looming for eight AEW superstars.
And, be honest - have you ever thought of hitting a wrestling move in real life?!

France, we're sorry.
Last week, we doubted whether you'd be able to deliver a crowd that was memorable for Backlash France - and instead, you delivered an all-time crowd reaction that was as good as any atmosphere that professional wrestling has ever had!
We talk about how LOUD that atmosphere was and why international audiences are delivering brilliant moments - plus some of the King of the Ring bangers we've had this week, some terrible health news from Kenny Omega, a celebration of independent wrestling, and your choices for wrestling's worst rebrands!

The WWE Draft is in the books - and it's a solid (if unspectacular effort) from WWE in the post WrestleMania lull.
But that doesn't mean there's not going to be a cracking weekend of wrestling in France for Backlash - even if we're not sure exactly where it's happening - plus AEW take a big creative gamble by having the Elite attack Tony Khan on Dynamite.
Plus Punk and McIntyre continue to shine on Raw, a conversation about the worst rebranding in wrestling history, some tragic geography knowledge and loads, loads more!

We thought it would deliver - and boy, did it ever!
Will Ospreay and Danielson met the sky-high expectations that were set for them at AEW Dynasty by delivering an all-timer of a match, on a show that saw a new AEW World Champion crowned and the return of Jack Perry.
We get onto all of that - plus Becky Lynch becomes Women's World Champion for the seventh time, Dominik Mysterio looks like he may stray from Rhea Ripley, the internet shamefully shames Sheamus, Charlie fantasy books a 'Summer of Drew' - and loads, loads more.

We're back, baby!
And we're returning from a fortnight off with a bang - as we look back at why WrestleMania XL was an all-timer, how WWE is smashing it with its new production techniques, Rhea Ripley's injury nightmare, and AEW preparing to serve up a Sunday of superb wrestling at AEW Dynasty.
Plus why the Usos match failed to deliver, the ridiculousness of AEW airing the the CM Punk-Jack Perry footage, Paul Heyman's Hall of Fame speech and loads, loads more.
