Dynamite Smashes the Life Out of Us

Episode 237 of the AEW-some Pod is up. Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs, Halloween Ends), Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times, Stand-Up! Records, Tubi), and Gringo Fantastico (Troma's Disasterpiece Theater) break down a Dynamite from Sugar Land where MJF picked his team for the Forbidden Door cage match and stuck Andrade on it against his will, then made him hold Briscoe for a Diamond Ring shot just to twist the knife. Ospreay and Swerve had a ten-year-deep face-to-face that brought up Hangman, Wembley, and one very fragile neck, though the real headline was Ospreay announcing to a live crowd that he treated his new wife by taking her upstairs and smashing the life out of her, while Tony Schiavone slowly came to terms with his career. Mercedes Mone punched her ticket to the Owen final. Bandido suplexed Marina Shafir and handed Mox and Garcia their first loss as a team. Copeland and Christian promised to housebreak The Dogs. Omega squashed Tony Nese and got a staring contest with a silent Zack Sabre Jr. And Ciampa told Jericho to either get serious or stay home.

Episode 236 of the AEW-some Pod is up. Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs, Halloween Ends), Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times, Stand-Up! Records, Tubi), and Gringo Fantastico (Troma's Disasterpiece Theater) break down a Dynamite from Cincinnati where Mark Briscoe went over MJF's head, talked to the actual boss, and booked himself into a six-on-six cage match at Forbidden Door for a guaranteed title shot. Chris Jericho introduced the world to Tommy's Mommy and Goblin Face. Darby Allin returned with a skateboard and a line for the ages. Kevin Knight insulted the host city, bragged about his signing bonus, and got skateboarded for his trouble. MJF preached the gospel of money over friends and then had to literally buy five friends out of a briefcase two segments later. Plus Mox retained over Shane Taylor, Maya World pulled the upset of the tournament over Skye Blue, and Swerve and Brody beat each other half to death in a 16-minute semifinal with a Nana situation we are still trying to figure out.

Episode 235 of the AEW-some Pod is up. Diana Prince (The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs, Halloween Ends), Johnny Taylor (The Hard Times, Stand-Up! Records, Tubi), and Gringo Fantastico (Troma's Disasterpiece Theater) break down a Dynamite from Richmond where MJF and Rush had themselves a no-countout main event that involved a slap, a dislocated shoulder, and an assault on a medical professional. Mark Briscoe cut a promo so good MJF had to respond from an ice bath. Kevin Knight is officially a Don Callis Family member and is now waiting in line for a World Title shot, because apparently we're handing those out by mail-order. Mercedes Mone showed up out of nowhere as the Owen Cup wildcard. Thekla declared death on an entire wrestling promotion. And Will Ospreay and Mark Davis ended the night with a 24-minute Owen Cup semi that featured roughly half the roster, one screwdriver, and a Marina Shafir cameo we are still thinking about. Plus Tommaso Ciampa is hunting Jericho, the Young Bucks tried to book a match with The Dogs, and Andrade kissed a stranger on his way to the ring.

Episode 234 of the AEW-some Pod is up, and Philly delivered the kind of show that gives three people plenty to argue about. MJF threw himself a party, Mark Briscoe and Rush had some thoughts on it, and now there's a title match on the books for next week that nobody saw coming the way it came. Kyle Fletcher is back from the shelf and apparently in the mood to start naming names inside his own faction. Kevin Knight continues his ongoing campaign to be the most insufferable man in professional wrestling, with a Speedball Mike Bailey assist. Jericho and Ricochet finally put a bow on what has quietly been one of the better programs of the year, and Tommaso Ciampa had a little something to say about it. Brody King and Claudio Castagnoli beat the brakes off each other in the Owen Hart Cup, Mark Davis and Jack Perry had a real one, and Copeland and Christian tried to do a nostalgia bit that went about as well as nostalgia bits tend to go in 2026. Plus Statlander and Shida closed the night with a Philly Street Fight that we are still recovering from. Diana, Johnny, and Gringo get into all of it.

Episode 233 and what a night. Diana, Johnny, and Gringo break down Double or Nothing, starting with Mick Foley going All Elite (welcome home, Mick).

Okada vs. Takeshita went full banger, Thekla is the best in the world at what she does, and MJF took Darby’s title and his moment. Johnny does a Speedball Bailey impression nobody asked for. And we are united in our rage at Kevin Knight, who we will never forgive. Rate, review, and subscribe. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 232 - Darby Allin wakes up to find every single backstage worker shaved bald to mock MJF, which is one way to start the morning, and from there it's straight into Owen Tournament brackets, Ospreay tapping Ace Austin out with his first AEW submission ever, Kevin Knight retaining the TNT Title against a returning Brian Cage, Speedball calling out the world champ, Mark Briscoe coming back to declare the Word of the Day is "Reunification," Thekla hitting Hayter with a title belt for a rare AEW DQ, and Darby surviving Konosuke Takeshita to officially sign a hair vs. title contract for Double or Nothing while bleeding directly onto the paper. MJF then closes the show by spearing Darby through the table and getting run off by Kevin Knight. Diana Prince, Johnny Taylor, and Gringo Fantastico break it all down.
