Solomonster reviews WWE Raw with another main event loss for LA Knight, only this time, he's clearly been written off TV.  Hopefully he's just getting a well-deserved vacation but the reality is, when someone talks smack the way he does and repeatedly fails to back it up, you develop a stigma.  Not something a heel turn may not be able to fix, but even still, the booking needs to be there to support it.  Whether that is the case here remains to be seen, but it's not a good look.

The BLOCKBUSTER deal for Netflix to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery has shaken up the entertainment world, but it also has very real implications for the pro wrestling world and we'll get into what those look like.  For the record, the reports of AEW's pending demise have been greatly exaggerated.  Also, we'll discuss TNA's new media rights deal with AMC Networks, when the first LIVE show will take place, what it means for their partnership with WWE/NXT and the CRAZY RIDE that show has taken over the years from one network to the next.  Plus, one former WWE writer claims ESPN executives are NOT HAPPY with their WWE partnership so far... what creative may look like for both World titles heading into WrestleMania 42, including a possible Cody Rhodes HEEL TURN... thoughts on Oba Femi challenging Cody next weekend... making the case for John Cena to BEAT GUNTHER at Saturday Night's Main Event... Cena tells Bill Simmons it takes FIVE YEARS to get over and why that's bullshit... Cena also speaks on why his heel turn failed, and I'll give you the REAL reason the whole thing was destined to fail from day one... Cena and WWE being SUED over his entrance music... the WWE libraries are leaving Peacock soon and what that means for the future... AEW Continental Classic updates and a WINTER IS COMING preview... thoughts on Kendal Grey from NXT... and is "Stone Cold" Steve Austin OVERRATED by fans?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown with the Finals of the John Cena "Last Time Is Now" tournament and it went the way we all thought it would.  But Gunther hasn't just promised to beat Cena, he says he's gonna tap him out.  Can you imagine?  You spend 20 years telling kids to never give up, only to give up in your final match.  Plus, Cody Rhodes gets an NXT opponent for SNME, and they're still DESPERATELY waiting for Bianca Belair to return.

Solomonster reviews AEW Dynamite from Indianapolis with THREE Continental Classic matches, including Jon Moxley against Claudio Castagnoli.  He was waiting on an angle with the Death Riders after, but that angle never came.  Plus, Samoa Joe and Eddie Kingston face off ahead of their AEW championship match at Winter Is Coming next week and hardcore garbage infects the Women's Tag Team Championship tournament.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw after Survivor Series as Triple H promised us an EPIC SHOW.  We didn't get an epic show, but what we got was largely good stuff with Jey Uso and LA Knight fighting for the right to lose to Gunther in the finals of "The Last Time Is Now" tournament, while Gunther and Solo Sikoa had a MUCH better match than most people expected.  Plus, Bron Breakker has a date for his World championship match with CM Punk and just cut his best promo yet, and Liv Morgan has already made it clear who the REAL leader of the Judgment Day is.

Solomonster reviews WWE Survivor Series War Games 2025 and having seen all of them dating back nearly four decades, this will definitely not rank among the best they've ever produced.  There were things to like and plenty to NOT like, so let's dive right into it, shall we?

Survivor Series was a huge letdown last night for so many different reasons, let me count all the ways and explain why, including one terrible direction they appear to be taking for WrestleMania.  Plus, they've somehow underwhelmed even MORE with this John Cena "Last Time Is Now" tournament, and why Cena should probably beat Gunther in his final match.  Plus, Dave Meltzer claims WWE has pitched a retirement storyline to Chris Jericho... Andrade speaks out about his WWE noncompete and where things stand... Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch make headlines with a podcast interview... AEW Continental Classic thoughts so far... Ric Flair claims STREET DRUGS are what killed Hulk Hogan... the end of the Monster Factory... dream matches that both exceeded expectations and fell short of them... and the story of the Kevin Nash MTV Spring Break incident.

The Last Time Is Now tournament is nearing its end, even though we already KNOW who John Cena's final opponent will be.  But I have a lot to say about the tournament so far, and Cena's final Raw appearance on one of the best episodes all year, plus all the latest War Games developments with my SURVIVOR SERIES PREDICTIONS.  Then I've got a LOT to unpack from Tony Khan's interview with Ariel Helwani and how it compares to their (disastrous) first interview, and what we learned about the CM Punk/Jack Perry footage airing on TV, WWE counter-programming his company, the future of Adam Cole and his weird Ghostbusters analogy... then a FULL REVIEW for AEW Full Gear 2025, including FOUR new champions crowned and the return of a former AEW World champion.  Let's see how my thoughts match up with yours.  Plus, TNA draws interest from a network you might not expect, and WWE gets some competition on Netflix next summer!

Solomonster reviews the go home show to AEW Full Gear with a THREE HOUR Dynamite/Collision combo, and I'll keep shitting on these until the end of time because THIS DOES NOT WORK.  It didn't start off badly, but it was a dead show by the end.  Kenny Omega is back, Mascara Dorada almost died twice against Okada and Mercedes Mone notches one last win before she LOSES on Saturday, mark my words.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw from Madison Square Garden, one of the best episodes of the year and the last time we will ever see John Cena on the show as an active performer.  His Survivor Series path is now clear, as are the WAR GAMES teams after some MAJOR returns in the form of Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns.  Plus, AJ Lee returns to cost Becky Lynch her Intercontinental championship and a current TNA star appears in the Last Time Is Now tournament!

Smackdown is moving back to three hours in January and since it's happening anyway, there are changes that need to be made first if this is not going to suck.  Plus, I've got thoughts on Elimination Chamber coming to the United Center in Chicago... John Cena's final Raw match at MSG and the state of this Last Time Is Now tournament... where things stand with WAR GAMES... LOLTNA lives on as Mike Santana loses the TNA World championship in the worst possible way... AJ Styles talks about the lost art of SELLING in wrestling and why he's right... AEW Full Gear predictions and MVP's latest comments on Paul Levesque (is he truly a changed man?)... thoughts on the PWI Top 250 list of greatest women's wrestlers... and where does John Cena rank on MY greatest of all time list?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Albany, NY and the news that the show will be returning to a THREE HOUR format starting in January.  Today, we all mourn together.  But Drew McIntyre is back already from his suspension after one week, LA Knight's mystery opponent in The Last Time Is Now tournament is a familiar face, Charlotte Flair backs out of War Games and we're getting a traditional Survivor Series elimination match this year... on Smackdown!

Solomonster reviews the BLOOD AND GUTS edition of AEW Dynamite from the historic Greensboro Coliseum and if blood is what you were looking for, you got more than enough of that.  He explains what he liked, what he didn't like and why he was a fan of both finishes, plus Hangman against Hobbs in a Falls Count Anywhere match and Ricky Steamboat makes an appearance.

Solomonster reviews a VERY newsworthy episode of WWE Raw with John Cena claiming his first Intercontinental title to complete the GRAND SLAM for the first time in his career.  Plus, the War Games matches take shape, the first two matches in the "Last Time Is Now" tournament, someone turns HEEL and new champions are crowned!

I'm opening with some heartfelt words about the 18 year anniversary of this show and I hope you all will listen.  Then we get into the news with how the WAR GAMES matches look to be shaping up... thoughts on the initial matches in the John Cena tournament... BURYING the state of Smackdown right now, why the show needs an overhaul and why their continued reliance on all things Bloodline is part of the problem... one TKO exec saying they need to move away from Vince McMahon-created legacy PLE names... thoughts on the Ridge Holland mess and the GoFundMe that he now claims he never even approved... ANOTHER championship coming soon to AEW... two wrestlers, including one former WWE star, WALK OUT before AEW Collision after not liking their plans... Tanahashi's final opponent REVEALED for Wrestle Kingdom... what if Bam Bam Bigelow had gone to the NWA and not WWE... and what is the most realistic pro wrestling match you've ever seen?

Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Greenville, SC, a show that when it was over had him wishing he had done something else with his time.  It just feels like such an empty shell of a TV program right now that it's sad to see what it's become.  It's a show that merely... exists.

Solomonster reviews WWE Raw for November 3rd, and after Triple H claimed there was a NEW LANDSCAPE in WWE, it looks a lot like the old landscape.  Logan Paul is back and appears to be aligning with The Vision for War Games, while Rey Mysterio returned to confront his son (or is it?), plus Becky Lynch is losing her mind and the first two matches announced in the John Cena LAST TIME IS NOW tournament.
