Episode 26: White Chair Shots

This week's episode is a bit late stemming from a gig that took us to far reaches to inspect broken glass for use in an upcoming high profile Taipei Deathmatch (Nancy Pelosi vs. ???). We apologize but we think the wait will be worth it.
 
Take and listen and you will hear:
-Our match-by-match review of ROH Death Before Dishonor 2022, which featured an instant classic and MOTY candidate.
-Our thoughts on the ongoing Vince McMahon saga. We judge hard.
-AEW's weekly television recap, including the Rap Battle reenacted by internationally recognized freestyle legends Doctor Destruction PhD (aka The Flow Masta) and ReclaimJoey (the man behind radio hit "Clueless in Euless").
