we're one week away from Forbidden Door so it's time to talk strategy. do you reckon they'll let us in with a pillow to sit on? and are we ever gonna get the women's blood & guts match of our dreams? also: AEW has signed some new people, TNA is on a hiding to nothing, and the Young Bucks let us laugh at them and honestly that's all we ever want. li…

why are heels more fun than babyfaces, and why is everyone fantasy booking Hangman dropping his belt already??? we want to celebrate our sweetie pie good guys as well as our gremlins! the countdown to Forbidden Door is on, and Dynamite was extra silly this week, so we're in a good mood. nice, that, innit? links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wa…

the Forbidden Door opens in three weeks!!! that's so soon!! this week, we're diving into the Triangle of Madness, fantasy booking ways out of THAT angle that we still haven't forgiven MVP and MJF for, and advocating for de-programming sensitivity training for wrestlers new to AEW. or just, you know, everyone. also David Francisco continues to be ou…

the Headbutt Messiah himself joined us to play Random Numbers, so you can officially consider this podcast part of the TK Cooper toxic positive echo chamber. we talked Pro Wrestling Colossus, the origins of Slam Ball, the best kinds of potatoes, and that Ain't No Sunshine musical mashup... more from TK: @pureTKC on X, Instagram, and Twitch Learn mo…

sometimes in wrestling you don't get the result you want... and then sometimes you do!!! Chuck Mambo shocked the world at Summer Sizzler and we screamed ourselves hoarse. also, Hangman had to run a gauntlet of all the most annoying people in AEW and that probably wasn't any fun for him, and we've filled in AEW's blank tag team tournament bracket fo…

too many of our guys keep getting hurt, so we've got an idea for Tony Khan: pillow fights. all the chaos, none of the injuries. worth a shot? this episode, we run through the developments on Dynamite this week, as the dust from All In settles and new storylines emerge. plus: tag teams, they'll break your heart every time. links and things: follow u…

cancel all our "we're not going to watch wrestling any more if Hangman doesn't win the AEW men's world championship!!!!" threats because he only bloody went and won it!!!! all of our many many All In thoughts are in this episode. it's a long one. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash, @awfullywaffly email us: wafflybo…

quirks of AEW scheduling meant we got Dynamite 300 this week, and only Dynamite 300, but luckily they gave us a Hangman-Kenny sandwich again, so there was plenty to talk about. also, we don't like pickles. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash email us: [email protected] buy t-shirts: ko-fi.com/wr…

more wrestlers than you'd think live on farms -- or maybe we're confused? this week, it's very hot and we're very caffeinated so you might need to listen on 0.5 speed or something, because we're also feeling aggrieved about referee decisions in RevPro but very very excited about the prospect of getting everything we ever wanted from Tony Khan. for …

AEW went to Arena Mexico this week, so Hangman cut an impressive five minute promo entirely in Spanish and let us tell you, we were impressed!! promotions still aren't booking enough women though. come on. sort it out. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash, @awfullywaffly email us: [email protected] buy silly gra…

Hangman made his bed and the Bucks are gonna make him lie in it! Summer Blockbuster was probably the most bondage-heavy episode we've had to date, but hey - at Waffly Bollox, we don't kink shame. elsewhere, there was a mini Best Friends reunion, and then a Best Friends wedding - and Crispy Billy popped the question! romance all around then. get stu…

this Wednesday was FyterFest, a whole four hours of AEW, but somehow this week we also made time for a load of indie wrestling and also plenty of fantasy booking! links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly and @wrassletrash email us: [email protected] buy MJ's Pride t-shirt: ko-fi.com/wrassletrash/shop Learn more abo…

someone suggested we record this episode inside a bouncy castle and you know what, it wouldn't have been inappropriate!! thanks to AEW's Double or Nothing and a cheeky RevPro show, all our guys are getting title shots, and there are gremlins everywhere. this is what happiness feels like. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox @wrassl…

this week the Crispy Cowboys took on the Don Callis Family and the winners? were us. we also locked Samoa Joe and Jon Moxley in a cage, had an unexpected visitor from Japan, and, closer to home, got some culture with an ambitious wrestling adaptation of A Midsummer Night's Dream. plus, spiders, spiders everywhere. links and things: follow us on Blu…

this week on your favourite wrestling podcast... well, we don't know, but we can at least say that we're talking about how Ricochet stole a man's leg, Trent continues to be furious, and Hangman deserves to finally get gold, dammit. plus? Lemmings chat. why not. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash, @awfullywaffly ema…

which member of the Don Callis Family would you least like to go on a roadtrip with? how many wrestlers do you think we can convince to declare themselves gremlins? and shall we make the Kenny-and-Hangman sandwich our standard episode format? all this and more nonsense in between. it's been a week. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybol…

the long awaited day finally came to pass: Mercedes Moné came to the Doncaster Dome! and lo, it was fucking awesome. elsewhere, for some reason Dynamite still included a really long segment with MJF and the Hurt Syndicate and we were not here for it. shall we just rage quit? links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash and @…

it's been a little while since we've been this angry about a segment. buckle up. that "explicit" rating isn't messing around. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash email us: [email protected] buy t-shirts: ko-fi.com/wrassletrash/shop and use WAFFLY25 for 25% off your first order at renderbomb.com …

the hosts of the brilliant Tunnel Talk podcast joined us for maybe our most chaotic episode yet. Allie, Anne and Lea renamed "jobbers", added to Darby Allin's backyard wrestling school lore, and taught us about eggs over easy. also we got into it about our philosophies on wrestling podcasting and the horrors of being perceived. it was a fun time! P…

we made it to 100 episodes!!!! technically more than that!!! but this is the one with the big round number on it anyway. this is also our AEW Dynasty reaction episode, and we handed out more gremlin points than ever before. it's a big one. get it in your ears. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash emai…

how do you beat a horse in a wrestling match, and are eggs technically "wet"? in this special episode, we're joined by Ref Sandy Beeches to chat about how she got into the zebra game, about her favourite kinds of matches to officiate, and inevitably a load of nonsense as well. follow Sandy: @sandybeeches_ on Instagram @RefSandyBeeches on X Learn mo…

bit of a quiet week in wrestling? but with Dynasty just over the horizon, we found plenty of things to talk about, including at least three brand new conspiracy theories we invented on the fly. well, keeps things interesting, doesn't it? links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash and @awfullywaffly email us: wafflybollox@g…

it's that time again and it's been an exciting week for wrestling! we've now got matches set for Kenny Omega at Dynasty, a new program for Mox (finally), the promise of Athena on the horizon, and an opponent for Mercedes Moné at High Stakes... and that's without getting into the matter of Toni Storm keeping her strap on. it might be snowing in Omah…

Mikey Rukus, composer of all your favourite wrestling themes, joins us to chat about imposter syndrome, embarrassing moments with Dean Malenko, and the inspiration behind some of his newest tracks. somehow, despite the fact that it only happened because of a very sweary skeet, this might be our most wholesome episode of all time?! follow Rukus: @Mi…
  continue reading
 
it's Saturday and you know what that means? time for a natter about wrestling!!! look, there's only been one episode of Dynamite since we were last here for a long long chat about Revolution so there's not much business to be dealt with, but we're just happy to be here. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash and @awful…

this episode, we're joined by Gideon Grey (wrestler, manager, and RevPro resident colour commentator) to chat about the kindness of Japanese fans, his favourite wrestlers to antagonise, and, inevitably, the general apocalyptic vibes of the world we live in. but you know, it's fine. also this episode? we're debuting our new Random Numbers game jingl…
  continue reading
 
Hangman said there are only three things that make him really angry and tbh, it was mostly the "running out of biscuits" one we focused on. make sure you remember to restock your biscuit tin, won't you? we're a week out from Revolution 2025 and things are getting spicy. also for some reason we were in an especially silly mood. sorry about that. lin…

Not your usual Waffly Bollox content. This is a serious one: last year, we got sucked in by known cancer scammer Abbey Arthur, who befriended us and then lied to us in order to try to steal our money. And then, after she'd been outed, immediately came back to try again under yet another fake name. We talked to the people who got caught up in her or…

okay we're actually starting to suspect Tony Khan is monitoring our conversations now because this episode of Dynamite? entirely too relevant to our interests. we had a blast. when wrestling is good, it's really good, innit. links and things: follow us: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash, and @awfullywaffly on Bluesky email us: [email protected] buy…

a bumper episode this week, because this week AEW went down under for Grand Slam, and also, Tony Khan gave us all the treats he could afford (which was a lot). our happiness meter filled up to 11 at one point. still found some demands to make, mind you. links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash email us: w…

contrary to appearances, your girlies(gn) are actually very easy to please. show us our guys, make us laugh, and tell us a little story. oh, and if you want us to like someone we didn't like very much before, just have them be a bit pathetic and we'll open our hearts up right away. we're very very into Hangman being plagued by Maxes, in short. link…

this week, we've lost patience with the Death Riders and we're fed up of complaining about the booking of the women's division (even though we're still annoyed about it) so we asked our Bluesky followers for some dilemmas and games and wow, they delivered. links and things: follow us: @wafflybollox, @wrassletrash and @awfullywaffly on Bluesky email…

for this special episode, we're joined by postmodern pro wrestler Liam Slater! Liam's the head coach at Pursuit Pro Wrestling in Sheffield, so we did ask him some sensible questions, but then we asked him about going to the supermarket, baby ducks, and which masked wrestler he thinks is the hottest. standard. more Liam: @liamsltr on Instagram and B…

did this week's Dynamite have the best opening 15 minutes of any episode ever or is that just us? we're delighted that a certain program seems to have been dropped in favour of a different one, so hopefully Tony Khan isn't teasing us because we are very much ready for some proper psychological torture!!! also, some of our fave little guys seem to b…

we've got some serious stuff to say this week. and then some silly stuff. the world is terrible, but we are joy-hunting truffle pigs, so we'll find something. but also, we're not gonna stop yelling about the bad stuff. just to warn you. links and things: follow us: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly and @wrassletrash on Bluesky email us: wafflybollox@gm…

Kenny Omega is back! really and truly back. also, MJF tried to team up with Jeff Jarrett, and Ricochet pranked Hangman, and Harley Cameron sang a song about Mariah May. also Ring of Honor was really good this week. we're back, baby.

it's that time of year again! nope, not time for New Year's resolutions - time for New Japan Pro Wrestling subscriptions! we watched Wrestle Kingdom 19 and then Wrestle Dynasty, the brand new collaboration between NJPW, AEW, ROH, CMLL and Stardom. was that a lot of wrestling for one weekend? yes. are we slightly delirious? also yes. but Kenny's bac…

we watched AEW's final PPV of 2024, Worlds End, and we had a lot of thoughts and even more feelings!! one note though: why isn't there an apostrophe in "Worlds End"? it really feels like there should be. links and things: follow us: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash on Bluesky email us: [email protected] buy t-shirts: ko-fi.com/wras…

Sarah and MJ got rocketed back to the 1990s by Will Ospreay's haircut this week and... well, we're not that mad about it. we've also been persuaded round on lots of other storyline elements. it's all pretty emotional. also, Toni Storm's back?! hell yeah! links and things: follow us on Bluesky: @wafflybollox, @awfullywaffly, @wrassletrash email us: …
