Episode 58 - Karrion My Wayward Son

It’s a skeleton crew this week — Andy’s allegedly hiding out in the Canary Islands (probably dodging Konnan), so it’s just Dan, Brett, and Lucy steering this runaway train.Karrion Kross and Scarlett’s contracts might be expiring… or it might be a work… or maybe it’s just a distraction while WWE sleepwalks through another PR nightmare. Either way, people online make it out to be the Da Vinci Code, and we’re here to poke holes in the hype.From there, we’re jumping straight into the good stuff: AEW might be on its hottest run in years. Collision and Dynamite are firing on all cylinders, Forbidden Door is around the corner, and we could be seeing Nigel McGuinness in the O2. Plus, your Discord and Twitter questions take us from fantasy booking chaos to arguing about trios titles, women’s tag divisions, Mercedes Mone, and everything in between.It’s opinionated, unfiltered, and sometimes a bit messy — exactly how wrestling podcasting should be.Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Overview of Karrion Kross and Scarlett's Situation00:00 The Hype Around Karrion Kross: A Mystery Unveiled03:22 WWE vs AEW: The Fan Dynamics and Booking Strategies06:13 The Impact of AI on WWE's Production and Creative Choices09:02 The Nexus and John Cena: A Look Back at Wrestling History12:09 AEW's Current Success and Fan Engagement15:13 Ratings and Audience Curiosity: The Shift Towards AEW18:10 Conclusion: The Future of Wrestling and Fan Expectations25:16 Wrestling Predictions and Speculations28:14 Taking the Piss Out of Ratings and Audience Engagement31:17 Streaming Services and Pay-Per-View Dynamics34:18 Trios Titles vs. Women's Tag Titles49:12 Future of Women's Tag Team Wrestling52:08 Crowning the Best: Women's Tag Team Champions55:21 Character Development: Mercedes and Harley Cameron58:27 Building Feuds: Athena and Mercedes01:04:23 Forbidden Door: Ospreay's Potential Matches01:09:33 Zack Sabre Jr. and the Future of British Wrestling🎧 Listen & Subscribe Free:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GWPodcastUK?sub_confirmation=1Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5PjvtX5m2QG657MCBcS9isApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-groupchat-wrestling-podcast/id1758973539🐦 Follow the Chaos:Twitter: https://twitter.com/GWPodcastUKDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/YrfmfBepJMBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gwpodcastuk.bsky.social👍 Like, comment, and sub for weekly wrestling chaos, Britwres banter, AEW drama, and more questionable opinions.#AEW #WWE #KarrionKross #Scarlett #WrestlingPodcast #MJF #aewdynamite Hosted on Acast.
