Episode notes
Goodness gracious, we’re really only a few days away from Great Balls of Fire!
And we’ve really solid feuds to look forward to ahead of the damnedest named PPV of the year: Braun Strowman vs. Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe, Enzo vs. Big Cass.
What are our hopes? We can’t wait for you to find out!
Plus: New Japan Pro Wrestling held it’s first ever show in the United States. Chances are it will never be able to truly challenge the WWE, but what do we want from the world’s second biggest wrestling company as they expand stateside?
Main Event:
Is WWE going too far with it’s latest treatment of things like race and nationalism. Sure, the “evil foreigner” is a wrestling staple and Jinder Mahal and Rusev might not have seen the level of success they’ve currently attained without it. But sure it’s time to evolve it in some way shape or form, right?
Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Mike Eagle.
Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
