Episode 166: AEW's International Championship Curveba... er Speedball!

Comedian and Author Johnny Taylor ("Bummin' with the Devil" on Tubi) and "legendary" retired luchador, Gringo Fantastico ("Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre" on TROMA NOW!) are here to bring you their takes on this week's AEW Collision! But they aren't alone... Diana Prince and Joe Bob Briggs pop in from the road for some shenanigans of their own! While Big Bill and the "Bad Apple" Brian Keith attempt to solidify themselves as number one contenders for the AEW Tag Team Championship, ROH's Athena shows up to put Mercedes Moné on notice! In other action, Dax Harwood needs to check himself before he wrecks himself and we get an unusually booked main event between Billie Starkz and Jaime Hayter! Join us for our crazy takes, our attempts at booking the territory, and a couple of fun historical facts from Joe Bob Briggs!

Episode 169 (nice) of The AEW-some Pod is here, and much like Kenny Omega's opening squash, we're keeping it short, sweet, and slightly sarcastic. Johnny, Diana, and Gringo dive into an episode of Dynamite where MJF continues to flirt with the Hurt Syndicate (but swipes left), Kyle Fletcher makes Brody King regret leaving his house, and Swerve Strickland expertly points out that Jon Moxley has been cutting the same promo since 2019. Plus, Toni Storm's "timeless" aura apparently didn't impress Megan Bayne, and Mark Davis is reminded that momentum in AEW lasts about as long as a sneeze. Pull up a chair, grab a beverage, and join the gang—unlike Moxley's title run, this episode won't overstay its welcome.

Johnny Taylor ("Bummin' with the Devil" on Tubi), Diana Prince (Shudder's "The Last Drive-In") and Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre on Troma Now) bring you an episode of the AEW-Some Pod that could reasonably give this basketball enforced split episode of AEW Collision a run for its money! Was it the TNT Championship title match that would highlight both nights of Collision? Was it another Beast Mortos burial? No! It was the segment that didn't air between The Learning Tree, Chris Jericho and an extremely ripped little boy named Axel with a gesture and a %&$*#&! Want to know more? Fire up this episode and find out. From the trios hot takes to their super sarcasm, it's an episode you won't want to split into two!

The gang is all here to regurgitate their takes on this week's... interesting... episode of the AEW-Some Pod! Diana Prince (Darcy the Mail Girl; Shudder's "The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs), Johnny Taylor ("Bummin' with the Devil" on Tubi), and Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre on Troma Now) are here to bring you their takes on the carnage that was AEW Dynamite! Between a nasty spot involving protruding spikes and Jon Moxley's torso, a less than spectacular ending to an otherwise fun Fatal 4-Way match, and the amazingly marvelous rants of the one and only "Timeless" Toni Storm, that coincided with a hell of a confrontation between Kris Statlander and Megan Bayne, the trio is here take a "stab" at deciphering this week's Dynamite!

The trio discusses Sunday's AEW Revolution. There was gore galore as "Timeless" Toni Storm had her Hollywood Ending with Mariah May, Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher took each other to the limit in one of the most iconic and "historical" cage matches of all time with gore that would make a Cenobyte blush, and Kenny Omega went toe to toe with Konosuke Takeshita in one of the most psychological and definitive wrestling matches in the last decade, as Chris Jericho unapologetically committed the ultimate sin against luchadors across the globe! It was a banger of an event and the gang is here to give you all the takes you can handle.

Johnny, Diana, and Gringo Fantastico are back to break down an AEW Collision that had everything—self-sabotaging sportsmanship, surprise gang assaults, and Jon Moxley treating a briefcase like it’s a deadly weapon in GoldenEye 007. FTR had a win locked up but decided honor was more important than victory (spoiler: it wasn’t), Daniel Garcia and Adam Cole put on a banger until it turned into an impromptu three-on-two mugging, and Queen Aminata actually listened to Serena Deeb, which was the night’s biggest upset. Meanwhile, Kenny Omega put his career on the line in a title challenge against Takeshita, Julia Hart suffered both a loss and a surprise Okada sneak attack, and Harley Cameron unveiled the most literal finisher name of all time. Pour one out (preferably not on Mercedes Mone) and join us for another chaotic recap!
