Wednesday Night Fake Fights

One cage, two rings, three podcasters... it's Blood and Guts time people and this was a blast of a Dynamite to talk about because it's really simple to recap pro wrestlers bleeding everywhere and hitting each other with stuff. There was loads to talk about between the men and women's Blood and Guts matches from Megan Bayne doing one of the nasties looking blade jobs on Dynamite this year, Skye Blue in her element, references to The Fifth Element, the plural of Lego, Hot Steve Borden going through tacks, Davis and Doyle shouting out the Godwinns, and yet another match ending because of the threat of actual murder. Elsewhere, Bandido is glistening with rage as he's on a quest for vengeance... very sexy vengeance and Marina continued to get in Mercedes Mone's face ahead of their title match at Full Gear. Also, Jon Moxley offers Orange Cassidy a fork. We also have mystery spheres to ponder as well as important consumer information about the so-called "Hampter Bites." I've paid Dean Malenko to shout read all the cards in my one 40k Commander deck and it's $40 well spent. Anyway, lighting the fuse time!

Welcome to Fright Night Dynamite... for real, this time! Yes, it's the grand finale of spooky season and that can only mean it's time again for Wednesday Night Fake Frights only with way less Crypt Keeper puns because Erika just isn't feeling it this year. But you know what we got? We got THE CUT, the hot new heel stable that all the kids are talking about! We've got Marina Shafir keeping track of receipts she owes Mercedes Mone! We've got Claudio doing a Thor impression with a trash can! We've got Jack Perry biting wieners again! There's a TNT Title match, I guess. And Queen Aminata vs. Persephone in the main event for the TBS Title! Plus! FTR vs. Motor City Machine Guns match 3, Blood and Guts build is kinda mid, pumpkin-headed bigfoot, and Hampter executes a picture perfect Diamond Cutter to Ella with excellent results. Light the fuse and make sure you're wearing your Silver Shamrock masks while you listen!

No Show this week just some words from Ella

Why are we still watching Dynallisions? Just to suffer? Folks it was a rough one for us this week as we had yet another three hour Dynallision as our go-home show for WrestleDream. The most important thing on the card: filling out the remaining spaces for the inaugural Clockwork Carnage match for the Men's World Title. There was a lot of action up and down the card elsewhere too. The Triangle of Madness took on the alliance of Mercedes Mone and Divine Dominion in a preview of the Women's World Title match between Thekla and Mercedes. FTR and The Motor City Machine Guns agreed to a Best of Five series, Adam Copeland made an important announcement on his future, Nick Wayne brought the pyro, The Death Riders suffered another set back, and Jon Moxley delivered yet another incredible promo segment. Also: chakras, Takeshita's back, Erika's exhausted, Hampter is still in Florida, and That's Not My Horse! Eyes up. Lock in. Light the fuse. The only way out is through.

We follow up a very sad week off with a historic Dynamite as AEW debuts in Paris, France with Grand Slam Dynamite. Which means the historic first of which of us will attempt to mangle the French language first on the pod. Just kidding, Hampter's French is lovely. Anyway, there was some high quality wrestling this week because Grand Slams always deliver. Will Ospreay defended the Men's World Title against Kazuchika Okada, a man he has notoriously had a hard time beating. In a "Can't Believe This is Happening" match, Kofi challenged for the ROH Men's World Title against Bandido as the feud between their respective teams hit a... new level (sorry). Queen Aminata challenged Mercedes Mone for the Women's World Title in the city she grew up in, while David & Doyle looked to take down The Death Riders and Jack Perry got his crack at Samoa Joe. All this plus Clockwork Carnage, Gabe Kidd's unique tattoo placement, we're completely done with Darby, hurricanes, and the terror of red pants. I would call this a very cathartic episode that we needed after the emotional PAC tribute show, so come light the fuse with us this week.

Dynallision. Dynallision never changes. This week saw a three hour edition of everyone's favorite Wednesday night professional wrestling show and it was... fine? Dare we say good? Frankly, it's hard to say because we hit our traditional long show loopiness by the end of recording. But we digress. Anyway, the show. Dynallision, some things happened. The Demand challenged New Swerve Level for the Trios Titles. The participants of the three-way tag title ladder match had some promo time. Speedball joined a new team. Francesco Akira had more microaggressions thrown at him. Jon Moxley got in one last tune up against a high flyer as Desmond Xavier had a Continental Title Eliminator match. Hyan challenged Persephone! Skye Blue vs. Queen Aminata! And so much more! All this plus monster hunts, hot flashes, Danzig, and I don't even know what the heck else but there was a lot. There's a fuse, we're gonna light it, and if you listen to this podcast that's your own fault.RIP Pac.  The Show on Bluesky: @wnff.bsky.socialPiper on Bluesky: @positivelypiper.bsky.socialErika on Bluesky: @skankmar.bsky.socialElla on Bluesky: @garaktailor.comHamptercero on Bluesky: @allwillbewell.bsky.social Support the pod financially with your money!

It's another week and another Dynamite and they let the Only Italian Pro Wrestler say a swear on TV! Other than that, solid if uneventful Dynamite. Steven Stingerverse continues to roll along in tag matches, Tommy Chompers killed the greatest jobber alive, and Gabe Kidd is actually kind of a silly little guy. Elsewhere, Andrade shed at least one of his gimmicks, the Don Callis Family continues to have internal struggles, and we lament the state of the Women's Tag Team division even while Jamie Hayter and Lena Kross had a very fun little match. All this plus red devils, Hampter Bites, Erika's Wawa drink order, and absolutely zero bits. Just solid pro wrestling podcasting from the word go. Light the fuse and see if you win a free hoagie.

What an amazing night at Fake Fights Studio. Erika is continuing her moving process so Hampter is back behind the wheel of the Cozy Coupe War Rig as AEW rolls into Athens Georgia to raise awareness and funds for ALS research on behalf of their very own Rebel Heart. It was also a somber night as AEW mourned their fallen brother Andy "The Butcher" Williams who sadly passed away in the ring. In spite of it all what a night of Graps. Mercedes brings the BDE. The Debut of El Hijo Del Stinger. And we all learn the importance of Stroke in the Industry from our VERY SPECIAL GUEST.Living Legend of the Ring. Canadian Trans Hero. Silent "The PitTrans" Tart.  Light the Fuse, quickly before we get a DMCA strike for her intro music!

All In is now all done. There's almost entirely new champions across the board, new wrestlers debuted, and Dynamite was the place to hit the ground running on a new leg of stories in AEW. How did they do? Three challengers stepped up to take a swing at new Men's World Champion Will Ospreay and Thekla emerged to put Mercedes Mone on notice. Copeland and Cage laid out a challenge for All Out that might involve some furniture, and Swerve and the recently debuted New Level put their newly won Trios Titles on the line against The Rascalz. Elsewhere, The Only Italian Wrestler, Francesco Akira led the United Empire into battle against The Demand and The Dogs in a massive main event 10-man tag match. I guess Ospreay and Andrade were in it too. All this plus mystery jerky, big birds, and Hampter finally got to The Truth Commission in their Monday Night Wars rewatch. Now to just light this fuse like normal and recline nicely in a comfy chair because nothing else will happen. What? Why are you all staring at the screen behind me? Aw, cripes...
