Episode 3: Peak Wrestling (and Other Fulfilled Desires)

Episode 3

18th August 2016

Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Mike Eagle discuss how much wrestling is too much wrestling, the changes in TNA and why WWE would ever give away PPV matches on TV.

Episode notes

On this week’s episode of Tights and Fights, the leaders of the Nation of Conversation take a look at whether 12+ hours of wrestling in one weekend means there’s too much content for anyone to possibly consume… and whether they will any way.

Plus, TNA’s got a new president: Billy Corgan (Yeah the Smashing Pumpkins guy). They’ll break down what went wrong in the Impact Zone and how TNA can hook them again as wrestling viewers.

All that and a look at why people in the crowd think they can jump into the ring during a live event, the team’s favorite Summerslam moments and whether or not WWE should be giving away PPV attractions on free TV.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Mike Eagle.

Produced by Julian Burrell.
