Ep. 452: Summerslam 2025
from Tights and Fights Hosted by Maximum Fun
It was the first ever two night Summerslam event in history. And it was marred in controversy for booking decisions and real-life implications: The most striking is that for the first time in recent memory, WWE publicly acknowledged Donald Trump on its show. The relationship between the company and some of its executives (including Paul Levesque) isn’t surprising– but there have been those who say this will affect their desire to watch WWE content going forward. We discuss. Plus, months after being named in the Janel Grant lawsuit, Brock Lesnar has returned to the company. The primary concern of those on this show is how safe the women within WWE feel that he was brought back so publicly. We’ll also take a look at the rest of the card which featured some absolutely great stories and some of the worst repeating patterns of the company. The Three Count: Danielle put over Linda McClown. Julian put over CM Punk fantastic four gear. Hal put over Seth Rollins breaking hearts. Hosted by Hal Lublin, Lindsey Kelk, and Danielle Radford. Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
