The Groupchat Wrestling Podcast

But most importantly, we want to spotlight as much as we can—because wrestling should be fun, and we want to celebrate it.At the end of the day, we’re just like a group of fans chatting wrestling in a pub—no agendas, no drama, just passion for the sport and plent

    Episode 84 - Swerve Goes Full Villain

    We are BACK.After releasing at least one episode every single week since day one, we’ve finally had our first unintended break… two whole weeks.Life happened. But we’re back in the saddle.And what a week to return.This episode we dive headfirst into:🔥 Swerve Strickland’s full heel turn – necessary? Perfect? Is Nana in danger?🔥 The Death Riders / Callis vortex – who’s actually coming out better?🔥 Wheeler Yuta discourse (yes… somehow we did 15 minutes on Yuta).🔥 Andrade being on absolute FIRE – push him to the moon or risk cooling him off?🔥 Tekla, Mercedes, Toni, Willow and the absolute madness of the women’s division.🔥 Bucks vs FTR AGAIN (and why that’s not a bad thing).🔥 Revolution card predictions.🔥 The mystery box… Danhausen? Joe Hendry? The Rock? The Gobbledygooker?Somewhere along the way:🧈 WWE became a metaphor involving overpriced supermarket butter.🧈 Hook’s leadership credentials were questioned aggressively.🧈 Things got heated… because we actually care.AEW feels alive.WWE feels… expensive and spreadable.And we’re arguing because wrestling is supposed to make you feel something.🎙️ Listen, like & subscribe if you enjoy wrestling talk without the grift.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GWPodcastUK?sub_confirmation=1Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5PjvtX5m2QG657MCBcS9isApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-groupchat-wrestling-podcast/id1758973539🐦 Connect With Us:Twitter: https://twitter.com/GWPodcastUKDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/YrfmfBepJMBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gwpodcastuk.bsky.social👍 Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly wrestling chaos, AEW breakdowns, Britwres dives, and moments that should not exist.

    Episode 83 - Why Does AEW Fumble Women? Rants, Predictions & Dream Matches

    Episode 83 is a one-hour, two-man deep dive with Brett and Dan, getting properly honest about where AEW is thriving — and where it’s actively holding itself back.We start on a long-overdue soapbox rant about AEW’s women’s division: why it feels like it’s regressed despite having the talent, what “good enough” booking looks like in 2026, and why this week feels like the right time for at least two title changes if AEW is serious about resetting the table.From there, we zoom out into AEW’s wider storytelling issues — character consistency, start-stop momentum, and the growing need for a hard ROH / AEW brand split to stop everything bleeding into everything else. We also talk roster growth, what’s actually working right now, and why Andrade El Idolo and Tommaso Ciampa somehow feel hotter than they ever did in the Black & Gold era.There’s fantasy booking too: how Jay White and Buddy Matthews should return, why Australia feels like the perfect stage, and what the Hangman–Swerve–Omega dynamic tells us about AEW’s main event future heading into Revolution.We also touch on AEW announcing Double or Nothing 2026 in New York City, Brett’s home turf, and the genuinely intriguing idea of Zohran Mamdani involvement.And finally: if AJ Styles did arrive in AEW — a big if — we lay out the dream matches that would actually make it worth doing.Thoughtful criticism, clear ideas, and no bad-faith nonsense.🎙️ Listen, like & subscribe if you enjoy wrestling talk without the grift.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GWPodcastUK?sub_confirmation=1Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5PjvtX5m2QG657MCBcS9isApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-groupchat-wrestling-podcast/id1758973539🐦 Connect With Us:Twitter: https://twitter.com/GWPodcastUKDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/YrfmfBepJMBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gwpodcastuk.bsky.social👍 Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly wrestling chaos, AEW breakdowns, Britwres dives, and moments that should not exist.🔥 Hashtags for the Algorithm 👇 #AEW #AEWDynamite #WrestlingPodcast #GroupchatWrestlingPodcast #TonyKhan #WillOspreay #AJStyles #AEWGrandSlam #GrandSlamAustralia #AEWRevolution #FTR #JonMoxley #BryanDanielson #KennyOmega #ProWrestling #WrestlingTalk #IndieWrestling Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 82 - Rumble Rants and the AJ Styles Dream Scenario

    Episode 82 is a two-man chaos shift as Wrestling Mark and Andy do what they “never” do and start with WWE, ripping into the Royal Rumble, the lifeless booking, and why so many ex-AEW names feel like they’ve been dropped into a punishment ritual instead of treated like stars. We talk Roman winning, the weird timing around Triple H criticism, and why it might finally feel like Dwayne Johnson is lining up a power move.Then we flip to AEW and get properly honest: not bad faith, not tribalism, just the reality that AEW set the bar so high that “good matches” alone doesn’t hit the same anymore. We break down the Death Riders hangover, rotating pushes, why some big moments have felt flatter than they should, and what AEW needs to do to get that “I have to stay up till 3am” feeling back.On the upside, there are real signs of life: the main event scene is stacked, Andrade feels reborn, Ricochet’s cooking , and we fantasy-book the most obvious (and most exciting) move possible: AJ Styles in AEW, with a proper run and a retirement done right.Also: hair vs hair predictions, women’s division frustration, and yes, White Castle catches strays again.🎙️ Listen, like & subscribe if you enjoy wrestling talk without the grift.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GWPodcastUK?sub_confirmation=1Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5PjvtX5m2QG657MCBcS9isApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-groupchat-wrestling-podcast/id1758973539🐦 Connect With Us:Twitter: https://twitter.com/GWPodcastUKDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/YrfmfBepJMBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gwpodcastuk.bsky.social👍 Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly wrestling chaos, AEW breakdowns, Britwres dives, and moments that should not exist.🔥 Hashtags for the Algorithm 👇 #AEW#AEWDynamite#WrestlingPodcast#GroupchatWrestlingPodcast#AJStyles#RoyalRumble#WWERumble#AEWvsWWE#TonyKhan#HangmanPage#KennyOmega#SwerveStrickland#ProWrestling#WrestlingTalk#IndieWrestling#TNA Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 62 - AJ Lee’s WWE Return & AEW`s King of New York

    AJ Lee is back — and the hyperbole machine is already in overdrive. Just as John Cena’s “heel turn” was once dubbed the best in history, AJ’s return is now being hailed as the greatest comeback ever. Some fans even say it’s the third best return in her own house. Whatever the ranking, there’s no denying the shockwaves it’s sending through the wrestling world.We break down what AJ’s return means for WWE, how it stacks up against CM Punk’s legendary comeback, and what it says about the power of nostalgia in wrestling. We also look at AEW’s ongoing perception issues — was the residency too long? — and why Eddie Kingston’s New York grit might be exactly what the company needs.From MJF’s evolution to the women’s division taking two steps forward and one step back, to whether we’re in a preseason lull, to tag team dream matches and shocking title wins on TV — this episode dives deep into why wrestling thrives on hype, surprises, and the larger-than-life moments that keep fans talking long after the bell rings.⏱️ Chapters:00:00 - AJ Lee's Historic Return09:29 - The Best Returns in Wrestling History ‍️15:02 - Fear of Overstaying Welcome22:58 - Logistical Challenges of Venues ️29:03 - Nostalgia and the Future of WWE ️34:55 - Disappointment with Big Bill's Handling42:56 - The Misdirection Theory on Eddie Kingston45:08 - Eddie Kingston's Role in Mox Redemption Story47:16 - Concerns Over Story Development1:01:57 - Lulls in Wrestling Storylines1:05:08 - Women's Division Issues ‍ 1:17:00 - Match Stipulations for MJF vs. Brisco1:31:18 - Wrapping Up the Conversation🎧 Listen & Subscribe:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GWPodcastUK?sub_confirmation=1Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5PjvtX5m2QG657MCBcS9isApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-groupchat-wrestling-podcast/id1758973539🐦 Connect With Us:Twitter: https://twitter.com/GWPodcastUKDiscord: https://discord.com/invite/YrfmfBepJMBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gwpodcastuk.bsky.social👍 Like, comment, and subscribe for weekly wrestling chaos, AEW breakdowns, Britwres dives, and moments that should not exist.#WrestlingPodcast #AEW #WWE #ajlee #eddiekingston #hook #cmpunk #aewdynamite #theelite Hosted on Acast.

    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.

    From Columbo Arresting Chuck Mambo to Rocky Montages with Mark Briscoe — A Beautiful Disaster of an Episode... With a full Progress 181 review!This week’s episode is... well... a mess.

Somehow, in the middle of it all, we covered CM Punk’s ongoing drama, Jericho’s character arc, Progress bangers, and AEW’s growing momentum. Brett sang Cult of Hypocrisy live on air, we imagined Columbo putting Chuck Mambo in cuffs, and we fantasy-booked the greatest training montage never filmed — The Outrunners learning to beat FTR with help from Mark Briscoe and a chicken.
