Audio Only And Still Unhinged; We Debate WWE Cuts And Preview Innovate In Kingsport

from Work Or Shoot?: A Wrestling Podcast · host Team T4

Send us Fan MailThe video dies, the audio lives, and the chaos starts immediately. We catch up with Wayne’s return, then jump straight into the week’s biggest wrestling news: WWE releases, the loud “We Want Kairi” reaction, and what it says about fan power, backstage reality, and how fast momentum can disappear. We also kick around the uncomfortable idea that wrestling could someday treat roster cuts like a sports documentary moment, because if we’re being honest, the line between real life and “for the show” keeps getting thinner.Then it’s all about the road. We lay out a stacked month of indie wrestling plans, shout out the promotions we’re supporting, and get hyped for Innovate in Kingsport at the Bobby Eaton Arena. We talk KCW Shockwave, Appalachian Mountain Wrestling at Pike Central, and why these shows feel alive in a way the big companies sometimes don’t. There’s plenty of side-quest energy too: CM Punk’s history with fans, security gone wrong at big weekends, and a quick “Follow The Figs” detour into AAA wrestling figures and dream collectibles.We close by running through the Innovate card, including the steel cage main event, plus updates on our Patreon, YouTube, and merch plans.
