Episode notes

After such a chaotic week, it’s nice to get back to the part of wrestling we love: the wrestling! That’s the love we share with you on a brand new episode of Tights and Fights!

Solo Sikoa is the newest Uce with the Bloodline. And it turns out he’s cool with his adopted family Sami Zayn as much as he is with his brothers. But when does it all implode?

Between Shayna Baszler and Sonya Deville, we actually love a little bit of MMA in our wrestling! And we also enjoy a bit of friendship between fwiends of all colors.

Plus: AEW looks to recover from a chaotic time by crowning a new World Champion next week. Can Bryan Danielson and MJF give the brand the stability that it needs?

And hey, if you need to smile, just remember that Chad Gable and Alpha Academy exists and Johnny Gargano had his first match in months!

The Main Event: NXT 2.0

It’s been one year since NXT was moved to Tuesday nights and rebooted with a new look and a new direction as NXT 2.0. And after this week, it looks like they’ll once again be tweaking the presentation of WWE’s developmental show.

The Three Count

Danielle put over Roman Reigns on imPaulsive.

Lindsey put over reviews for Mindy’s Bakery in Chicago.

Julian put over a spine-buster that would make Arn Anderson proud.

Hosted by Danielle Radford and Lindsey Kelk
