Who the hell starts a press conference like that, anyway? YOU know what we're talking about. Man, a LOT has gone down since the last time we put out an episode.

We’re in that in-between space from AEW Revolution to WWE WrestleMania. AEW put on a heck of a show. WWE’s gonna do what they do. Overall, we’re still having fun, especially watching the likes of CM Punk, Bryan Danielson/Mox/Regal, Thunder Rosa, and Kevin Owens as they do their things. But with the fun, comes the real stuff too. We had to say goodbye to a childhood favorite in Scott Hall.

Yet another comic book reboot has landed upon us, but is this one any good? Opinions are mixed, but we decided to dive cowl-first into The Batman. A new psychopathic version of The Riddler... an obsessive, detective Batman... non-Catwoman Selina Kyle and more flying rats that you can poke a Batarang at, this movie was so full of comic book lore, we spent almost the full runtime discussing it.

On this week’s show, we focus a good chunk of time on breaking down this weekend’s stellar AEW Revolution card. Between that show and the big news about Ring of Honor being acquired by Tony Khan, there’s a LOT to speculate about. What will the championship scene look like in AEW? Who will the key power players be coming out of Revolution? What will become of ROH – do they operate as their own kind of thing, or do they become a developmental ground of sorts? Beyond that (and potentially related) ...
