Wrasslin' Wroundtable

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 82The Black Tank Top Gang finally has a name. Will Ryan remember it? Absolutely no promises.Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss the 946 Gang’s impact on The Bloodline, Bronson Reed’s return, Cody Rhodes’ continued dance with the dark side, and a serious reminder about the human beings behind professional wrestling.Show Notes• Royce Keys and the 946 Gang Enter the Bloodline SagaRoyce Keys and the 946 Gang open up several intriguing possibilities for The Bloodline.Does their arrival give Solo Sikoa an opportunity to get his lick back? Who becomes their next target? And, perhaps most importantly, who is explaining those torched cars to the rental company?Ryan and Dom attempt to follow the money—and the trail of gasoline.• Bronson Reed ReturnsBronson Reed made his presence felt during the Bron Breakker–Oba Femi match, immediately adding another dangerous variable to the equation.Ryan and Dom discuss the latest developments, what Reed’s return means for both competitors, and whether WWE has a larger collision brewing among three of its most destructive powerhouses.• Will Cody Rhodes Ever Fully Embrace the Dark Side?Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton delivered a terrific match at Saturday Night’s Main Event.The finish? Not quite as terrific.Ryan and Dom break down what worked, why the ending fell short, and whether Cody will ever stop flirting with the darkness and finally become the more dangerous version of himself this story appears to demand.• Enough With All the FactionsYes, the 946 Gang creates exciting possibilities.Yes, Ryan and Dom are still crashing out about WWE having entirely too many factions.When everybody has a crew, does anybody stand out? The Wroundtable discusses why factions need distinct motivations and meaningful stories—not just matching outfits and enough people to interfere in every main event.• Remembering the Person Behind the PerformerFollowing the tragic passing of AEW’s The Butcher during a match, Ryan and Dom step away from the storylines to acknowledge the human cost of professional wrestling.The performers who entertain us are people with families, friends, and lives waiting for them beyond the arena. It is a sobering reminder that, no matter how immersive wrestling becomes, everyone deserves to finish their match and make it home safely.All that and more on Episode 82 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where the 946 Gang finally has a name, Cody still has a decision to make, and WWE apparently remains determined to organize its entire roster into group projects.🦸 Help Dom Become a Super DadSupport Dom and help him receive the recognition he deserves:👉 Vote for Jacques LaRue as Super Dad📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 81Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss a move that could reshape the wrestling business, the continuing mystery of Royce Keys’ “Black Tank Top Gang,” Netflix’s strange censorship decision, and a Match of the Year candidate with enormous title implications.Show Notes• The New Day Levels Up—and Wrestling Changes ForeverKofi Kingston and Austin Creed heading to AEW is bigger than one promotion signing two decorated performers. It could represent a genuine sea change for professional wrestling.Ryan and Dom discuss what their arrival means for AEW, WWE, and wrestlers searching for alternatives. They also ask the unavoidable question: Why would WWE ask two men who helped make the company a fortune—and built one of wrestling’s most successful acts—to accept such a massive pay cut?WWE’s loss might become a defining gain for the entire industry.• OTM—or Royce Keys’ Black Tank Top GangThat is what Dom called them, and honestly, it may stick.Royce Keys, Lucien Price, and Bronco Nima continue attacking people backstage, but what is the actual endgame? Ryan and Dom try to determine whether these attacks are building toward a larger story or if WWE introduced yet another faction before deciding what it stands for.Black tank tops are not a motive.• Why Did Netflix Blur the Blood?Netflix hosts plenty of movies and shows featuring far more graphic violence, yet the blood covering Jimmy, Jey, and Solo was blurred during Raw.Ryan and Dom explain why the issue isn’t blood for blood’s sake. In the right story, blood adds consequence and makes the conflict feel real. Blurring it only draws attention to the production and breaks the illusion WWE worked so hard to create.If the violence matters to the story, let the audience see the story.• Penta vs. Rey Fenix: A Match of the Year CandidateWith a shot at Roman Reigns’ championship waiting in Mexico City, Penta and Rey Fenix delivered a Match of the Year contender.Ryan and Dom break down the chemistry, emotion, and spectacular in-ring action—and discuss whether the winner can carry that momentum into a championship match against the Tribal Chief in two weeks.All that and more on Episode 81 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where The New Level may have changed the business, OTM still owes everyone an explanation, and Netflix apparently discovered its limit.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 80Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back with a familiar mix of confusion, frustration, and desperate attempts to make WWE’s latest creative decisions make sense.This week: another faction arrives, the main-event generation keeps getting older, and WWE apparently believes every wrestler needs at least four friends and a matching entrance.Show Notes• Royce Keys, OTM, and Another Unexplained AllianceRoyce Keys has joined forces with OTM’s Lucien Price and Bronco Nima—and their first major act was interfering in Raw’s main event.But why?Ryan and Dom discuss what this new faction could become, what its immediate involvement in the main event is supposed to accomplish, and why WWE needs to explain the motivation before asking fans to invest in another group.• WWE’s Main-Event Clock Is TickingMany of WWE’s biggest stars are now over 40. They may still perform at an elite level, but the company cannot rely on the same names forever.So, who is truly next?Oba Femi? Bron Breakker? Trick Williams? Je’Von Evans?Ryan and Dom examine WWE’s next generation, who looks ready to make the jump, and whether the company is doing enough to turn potential into genuine main-event star power.• Why Does Everybody Need a Faction?Another week, another alliance, stable, crew, family, vision, collective, or loosely associated collection of people standing behind someone during a promo.Ryan and Dom ask what all these factions actually accomplish. Groups should create stories, elevate their members, and give everyone a clear purpose—but when nearly everybody belongs to one, none of them feel particularly special.Maybe WWE doesn’t need another faction. Maybe it needs better reasons for the ones it already has.All that and more on Episode 80 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where the roster is crowded, the factions are multiplying, and optimism has once again been placed on the injured reserve list.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 79Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss an increasingly compelling Bloodline saga, two potential babyface breakouts, and another troubling departure that raises questions about what WWE values.Show Notes• Is Solo Sikoa WWE’s Biggest Babyface?That is a sentence we never expected to write—but after the final segment of Monday Night Raw, it might be true.Solo’s evolution from ruthless enforcer to funny, charismatic fan favorite has been remarkable. Ryan and Dom discuss why the transformation is working, how Solo fits into the next chapter of The Bloodline, and whether WWE has created one of its most popular babyfaces.• Roman Reigns and the Ego of a Tragic KingInside every ruthless leader is the ego that eventually brings down the empire.Tony Soprano had it. Michael Corleone had it. Roman Reigns certainly has it.Ryan and Dom examine The Bloodline through the lens of a classic tragedy. Roman has survived betrayal, rebellion, and the collapse of his family—but when will his pride finally become the one opponent he cannot defeat?• Chelsea Green’s Breakout Babyface MomentChelsea Green’s emotional confrontation with Nick Aldis on SmackDown was more than another good promo. It felt like the beginning of something significant.Ryan and Dom discuss what made the segment so compelling, where Chelsea’s story goes next, and whether WWE has found its next major women’s babyface.• Ilja Dragunov Reportedly Wants OutReports indicate that Ilja Dragunov requested his WWE release, raising another uncomfortable question about the company’s direction.Where is the space for someone who gets over through intensity, physicality, and exceptional in-ring ability? Ryan and Dom discuss what WWE would lose with Dragunov’s departure—and whether great wrestling alone is still enough to earn a meaningful opportunity.All that and more on Episode 79 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where Solo may be the hero, Chelsea may be the future, and Roman’s greatest enemy may have been staring back at him the entire time.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Episode 78:Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss Solo Sikoa’s unexpected comedic evolution, a puzzling take about Roman Reigns, and why wrestling finishers need to start feeling special again.• Solo Sikoa: Funny, Dangerous, and Finding His GrooveSeriously—when did Solo get this funny?His comedic timing has become one of WWE’s most pleasant surprises, but don’t let the laughs distract from one important fact: Solo Sikoa is still a bad, bad man.Ryan and Dom discuss his evolving character, what comes next for The Bloodline, and how Solo could factor into its next chapter.Just don’t give him a warning shot.• Roman Reigns Is Overrated? We Need to Talk About ThatPodcaster Conrad Thompson recently suggested that Roman Reigns might be overrated—and Ryan and Dom have questions.They explain why the criticism feels shortsighted, examine Roman’s growth as a performer and storyteller, and make the case that, despite years at the top, Roman might somehow still be underrated.• Make Finishing Moves Special AgainA finishing move should finish the match. Revolutionary concept, apparently.Ryan and Dom have a fun conversation about endless kickouts, diluted finishers, and why wrestling has lost some of the drama that comes from protecting a wrestler’s biggest move.Not every match needs four finishers, six shocked faces, and a kickout at 2.9999. Sometimes one devastating move should be enough.All that and more on Episode 78 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where Solo brings the comedy, Roman gets his flowers, and finishers are politely asked to start finishing again.Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagram⁠https://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/⁠👉 Facebook⁠https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428⁠👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH⁠

Episode 77:Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue unpack a jam-packed SummerSlam weekend featuring surprise returns, chaotic championship matches, and a main event worthy of The Shield’s complicated history.Some matches overdelivered. Some careers were resurrected. And one familiar Beast may—or may not—have walked away for good.Night One• The Six-Man Tag OverdeliveredThe six-man tag didn’t promise much on paper, but it delivered once the bell rang.Ryan and Dom discuss the match’s surprising success—and whether LA Knight’s involvement could lead to a future alongside Roman Reigns and the OTC.• Randy Orton Sticks His Neck OutRandy Orton inserted himself into the championship picture, and the message was impossible to miss.Is Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton officially on deck? Ryan and Dom discuss their history, the emotional stakes, and how dangerous this feud could become once friendship gives way to championship ambition.• Nick Aldis vs. Gunther DeliveredThe emotion was real, the physicality lived up to expectations, and Nick Aldis proved he still belongs inside the ring.Ryan and Dom break down why the match worked—and whether Aldis is truly finished competing.• Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi Was Everything We ExpectedThe Ruler and The Beast went to war inside Hell in a Cell, delivering the violence and intensity their months-long program promised.Brock may be calling it a career—but we’ve heard that one before. Ryan and Dom discuss what the match did for Oba, what comes next for both men, and whether anyone should believe The Beast is actually finished.Night Two• Kevin Owens Is Back—and Already the No. 1 ContenderIn perhaps the biggest surprise of the weekend, Kevin Owens returned for his first match in nearly two years—and became the new No. 1 contender for the Undisputed Championship.Ryan and Dom discuss an incredible comeback, the title match now waiting for KO, and whether he can complete the journey by reaching the top once again.• Chelsea Green Survives the ChaosChelsea Green captured the Women’s Interim Championship in a wild ladder match filled with collisions, close calls, and complete disorder.Ryan and Dom discuss why Chelsea was the right choice, what her interim reign could look like, and what happens when Rhea Ripley returns.• Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: The Final Chapter of The ShieldYears of friendship, betrayal, resentment, and unfinished business finally collided.Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns delivered a brutal, emotional Match of the Year contender that felt like the true ending to The Shield’s story. Ryan and Dom break down the callbacks, the emotion, and whether WWE gave this era the conclusion it deserved.All that and more on Episode 77 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—with absolutely no discussion of Danhausen’s Human Monies on a Pole match.We have standards.

Episode 76Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue preview a loaded two-night SummerSlam card—but first, they have one question for ESPN:Why eliminate the one-hour preview show designed to get people excited about the event?Show Notes• ESPN Scraps the SummerSlam Preview HourA major event should feel like a major event. So why remove an hour dedicated to introducing the matches, explaining the stories, and building excitement?Ryan and Dom discuss why the decision feels shortsighted—especially when WWE and ESPN should be trying to attract new viewers instead of assuming everyone already understands the card.Night One• Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar: Match of the Weekend?The Ruler and The Beast finally collide inside Hell in a Cell.After months of electric segments, the expectations are enormous. Ryan and Dom explain why this brutal showdown should be the match of the weekend—and why the result could define Oba’s future as a main-event star.• Gunther vs. Nick Aldis: Don’t Sleep on This OneNick Aldis has been emotional in recent interviews and training like he has something to prove. Across the ring stands Gunther, a man seemingly designed to punish anyone who believes too strongly in a comeback story.Could this quietly steal Night One?• CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes: Does Cody Finally Embrace the Darkness?Cody’s polished, heroic approach may not be enough against CM Punk.Ryan and Dom ask whether SummerSlam is where Cody finally stops trying to be everyone’s hero, embraces his darker instincts, and becomes the version of himself capable of reclaiming the championship.Night Two• Penta vs. Chad Gable: A Hometown Coronation?Chad Gable challenges Penta for the Intercontinental Championship in front of his hometown crowd.Does Gable finally receive the feel-good championship moment fans have been waiting for—or does Penta spoil the homecoming? Either way, this could be the sleeper match of the entire weekend.• Women’s Interim Championship Ladder MatchWith Rhea Ripley sidelined, the women’s division needs someone to seize the moment.Could Lash Legend win the ladder match and carry the championship until Rhea returns? Ryan and Dom discuss the field, the opportunity, and whether Lash is ready for a defining run.• Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: Believe in The Shield?WWE keeps showing footage of The Shield, and Ryan and Dom are paying attention.Is it simply history being used to deepen the Seth–Roman rivalry—or could SummerSlam feature a surprise appearance from a certain Lunatic Fringe?All that and more on Episode 76 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where SummerSlam is stacked, the predictions are locked in, and absolutely nothing involving The Shield feels accidental.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin' Wroundtable Episode 75Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue dive into one of the biggest business weeks WWE has had in years—and ask whether the company is becoming more focused on corporate partnerships and celebrity appeal than the fans who got them here.From SiriusXM to TKO, Nick Aldis to Gunther, and the New York Knicks controversy, there's plenty to unpack.Show Notes• WWE Radio Is Coming to SiriusXM... Good Move or More Corporate Control?WWE is launching WWE Radio on SiriusXM, bringing official WWE podcasts, audio versions of weekly TV, and live radio-style coverage of Premium Live Events under one umbrella. Ryan and Dom discuss what this means for wrestling fans. Is this a great way to make WWE content more accessible, or is it another step toward WWE controlling more of the conversation around its own product?• Has WWE Forgotten Its Core Audience?From celebrity appearances to premium ticket prices to merchandise that keeps getting more expensive, Ryan and Dom wonder if WWE is paying more attention to celebrities and corporate partners than the fans who have supported the company for decades.When replica championship belts are pushing $1,200, at what point does the average working fan simply get priced out?The Wroundtable discusses whether TKO's business-first philosophy is creating record revenues... while slowly distancing WWE from the audience that made it successful in the first place.• Nick Aldis vs. Gunther Is Quietly Becoming the Feud of the SummerOutside of Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi, Ryan and Dom believe no rivalry has caught fire quite like Gunther and Nick Aldis.What started as a confrontation between a General Manager and an angry superstar has become one of WWE's most compelling stories.• The Knicks Story Makes No SenseOne week, WWE heavily featured the New York Knicks throughout Saturday Night's Main Event from Madison Square Garden, with Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns playing major roles. Now reports say some within WWE weren't happy with how much attention the Knicks received. Ryan and Dom ask...What did you expect?You ran the show in Madison Square Garden just weeks after the Knicks won their first NBA championship in over 50 years. The crossover made perfect sense for that audience. Walking it back afterward feels shortsighted—and another example of TKO overthinking what fans actually enjoy.All that and more on Episode 75 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where the biggest stories aren't always inside the ring.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin' Wroundtable Episode 74Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back with a week that left them asking a familiar question:What exactly is WWE thinking?One beloved veteran is officially gone, some familiar faces are suddenly back, and Dom somehow found a way to connect Cody Rhodes, The Rock... and Danhausen.Yes, really.Show Notes• Sheamus Is Officially Gone... and We Don't Get ItAfter nearly 20 years with WWE, Sheamus is officially gone, bringing an end to one of the most decorated careers of the modern era. His departure followed the expiration of his contract after the sides were unable to reach a new agreement.Ryan and Dom look back on everything The Celtic Warrior accomplished—and ask the question they can't shake:Why let him walk?Sheamus could still go in the ring. He still connected with crowds. And it felt like he had unfinished business, especially with the Intercontinental Championship—the one title that always eluded him. Ryan and Dom discuss why WWE may have let one of its most reliable stars leave with plenty left in the tank.• Baron Corbin Is Back... But Why?Baron Corbin has returned to WWE, and Ryan and Dom aren't convinced they understand the timing.Where does Corbin fit on today's roster? Is there a real plan here, or is this simply another familiar face returning without a clear direction?• Enzo & Big Cass: Bada Boom... But Why?Bada boom.Most confusing move in the room.Enzo Amore and Big Cass are reportedly on their way back to WWE, and Ryan and Dom have one simple question:Why?The duo was lightning in a bottle a decade ago, but this isn't 2015 anymore. Does nostalgia alone justify bringing them back, or is WWE looking backward instead of building its future?• Cody Rhodes, The Rock... and Danhausen?This might be Dom's wildest theory yet.What if Danhausen becomes the unlikely bridge between Cody Rhodes and The Rock?Ryan and Dom connect the dots on a storyline that sounds ridiculous on paper... until you hear Dom explain it.• Saturday Night's Main Event PreviewBefore the next chapter begins, WWE has one more stop.Ryan and Dom preview Saturday Night's Main Event, break down the biggest matches, discuss what needs to happen, and make their predictions heading into another pivotal weekend.All that and more on Episode 74 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where legends leave, old favorites return, and somehow Danhausen might end up in the biggest storyline in WWE.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue react to yet another major title change, a fascinating new wrinkle in the Roman Reigns/Seth Rollins story, and a growing concern that has nothing to do with what happens inside the ring.The road to SummerSlam just took another unexpected turn.Show Notes• CM Punk Is the New Undisputed ChampionWe have another new champion—and this time, it's CM Punk.Ryan and Dom break down what Punk's victory means for the Undisputed Championship and where WWE goes from here. What becomes of Cody Rhodes after losing the title? Where does Sami Zayn fit into the championship picture?And perhaps the biggest question of all:Does Sami Zayn finally need to embrace the dark side?The Wroundtable makes the case that the next evolution of Sami's character may be his most compelling yet.• Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and a New Role for Seth?After Seth declared that he "owned Roman," Dom floated a fascinating theory.What if this rivalry isn't just about settling old scores? What if it's setting Seth up for an entirely different role moving forward?Ryan and Dom connect the dots and discuss how one line may have quietly changed the direction of one of WWE's biggest stars.• WWE, TKO, and Pricing Out the FansThis week's biggest conversation isn't about a match.It's about the fans.Ryan and Dom discuss how WWE's corporate evolution under TKO has made the product increasingly inaccessible to everyday working people. From premium live event pricing to merchandise, the costs continue to climb—including replica championship belts now selling for more than $1,200.At what point does WWE stop serving the fans who built the company?The Wroundtable tackles one of the biggest off-screen stories in wrestling today.All that and more on Episode 73 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where championships change, stories evolve, and sometimes the biggest issue isn't what happens between the ropes.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 72Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue react to one of the biggest title changes of the year, a King of the Ring victory that raises as many questions as it answers, and a rivalry that suddenly feels a little too real.The road to SummerSlam just got a whole lot more interesting.Show Notes• Sami Zayn Is Champion… Now What?We have a new champion, and it's Sami Zayn.Ryan and Dom break down what the title change means for WWE moving forward. Is Sami a true long-term champion? Or is this a transitional reign designed to get the title from Point A to Point B? The Wroundtable discusses where Sami fits at the top of the card and who should be next in line.• Gunther's Crash-Out… Is Nick Aldis About to Lace Up the Boots?Gunther completely lost it on Nick Aldis, and it may have consequences beyond a fine or suspension.Ryan and Dom discuss whether this could finally be the moment Aldis steps back into the ring. Is WWE setting up one more run for the SmackDown General Manager, or is this simply a way to raise the stakes heading into SummerSlam?• King Oba Femi: The Right King… But the Wrong Prize?Oba Femi wears the crown, and Ryan and Dom agree WWE got the winner right.But here's the question:If Oba Femi is already confirmed to face Brock Lesnar inside Hell in a Cell at SummerSlam, what exactly is the point of giving the King of the Ring winner a guaranteed championship match?Does the stipulation actually raise the stakes... or does it unintentionally telegraph that Oba won't be cashing in his title opportunity anytime soon?The Wroundtable debates whether WWE has backed itself into a creative corner—or whether there's a twist coming that nobody sees.• Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns: This Feels DifferentSome rivalries feel scripted.This one doesn't.Ryan and Dom talk about why the tension between Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns feels unusually authentic—and whether WWE is quietly planting the seeds for one of the most emotional reunions in modern wrestling history.Could the original Shield ride together one last time?All that and more on Episode 72 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable—where championships have changed, kings have been crowned, and SummerSlam is shaping up to be something special.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 71Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue return to wrestling's favorite question:What makes sense?This week, it's not just about booking decisions. It's about perspective. Paul Heyman pulled back the curtain in a rare interview, Night of Champions is here, and the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments have some fascinating implications.Show Notes• Paul Heyman Opens the CurtainPaul Heyman doesn't do many shoot interviews, which is exactly why his conversation with Chris Van Vliet resonated throughout the IWC.Ryan and Dom discuss Heyman's incredible insight into what he saw in Roman Reigns' Tribal Chief character long before everyone else did, how he unexpectedly became Brock Lesnar's advocate, and why hearing one of wrestling's greatest creative minds explain his process is a masterclass in storytelling.• Night of Champions PreviewOne of WWE's biggest international events has arrived.Ryan and Dom break down the card, the matches they're most looking forward to, and the stories that could shape the road to SummerSlam.• Queen of the Ring: Wait... Isn't Liv Already a Champion?Here's the question neither Ryan nor Dom can shake:Why is Liv Morgan, an active champion, competing for the opportunity to challenge for another championship at SummerSlam?The Wroundtable examines the logic behind the booking, whether it helps the tournament, and if WWE missed an opportunity to elevate someone chasing their first major title.• Oba Femi vs. Jey Uso: Who Needs the Crown More?It's power versus momentum.Does Oba Femi take the next step toward becoming WWE's next dominant force? Or is this finally the moment Jey Uso completes his singles journey by becoming King of the Ring?Ryan and Dom debate not just who will win — but who should.All that and more on Episode 71 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable — where sometimes the biggest question in wrestling isn't "who wins?"

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 70Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue find themselves asking one of their favorite wrestling questions yet again:What makes sense?Not what would be shocking. Not what would break the internet. Just... what actually makes sense?With King and Queen of the Ring approaching, the answers may be more complicated than they seem.• King of the Ring: Who Should Wear the Crown?The field is loaded, but not all paths are created equal.Does Jey Uso finally cement his singles legacy with a King of the Ring victory? Does Je'Von Evans announce himself as WWE's next breakout star? Or is Oba Femi simply too unstoppable to deny?Ryan and Dom break down the candidates, the story implications, and perhaps the biggest question of all:If Jey wins, what does that mean for the Bloodline?Because in WWE, nothing involving that family is ever simple.• Queen of the Ring: Is Iyo Sky the Obvious Choice?Some tournaments have favorites.Some tournaments have inevitabilities.Ryan and Dom discuss whether Iyo Sky is the clear frontrunner, who could challenge her, and what a Queen of the Ring victory would mean heading into the second half of the year.• Liv Morgan, Danhausen, and a Very Interesting ConversationDanhausen's latest Raw appearance raised some eyebrows.His interaction with Liv Morgan may have seemed harmless enough on the surface, but Ryan and Dom aren't so sure. Is this the beginning of another very nice, very evil storyline?More importantly:Is a curse coming?The Wroundtable examines the evidence before things inevitably get weird.All that and more on Episode 70 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable — where we're once again trying to figure out what makes sense in a business that often seems determined to avoid it.Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OHShow Notes📲 Stay Connected

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable Episode 69Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back with a week full of questions, theories, and one very important debate involving a certain very nice, very evil curse-breaker.Show Notes• CM Punk: Vacation, TKO Feud, or Something Bigger?After everything that's happened, CM Punk seems conspicuously absent.So what's really going on?Is Punk simply taking some well-earned time off after a brutal WrestleMania season? Is there actually something brewing between Punk and TKO? Or is this all a carefully crafted smokescreen for a much bigger story?Ryan and Dom connect the dots and try to separate reality from storyline.• King of the Ring: Who Needs It More?The tournament is here, and the stakes feel higher than they've been in years.Does Jey Uso finally get his defining singles accomplishment? Does Oba Femi continue his rise, or does a loss derail the momentum of WWE's hottest young star?Ryan and Dom discuss who should win, who will win, and who benefits the most from wearing the crown.• Chad Gable: How Do You Keep the Heat?After his wildly entertaining run as El Grande Americano (yes, we're still laughing about it), Chad Gable may have emerged more popular than ever.Now comes the hard part.How does WWE capitalize on that momentum? Ryan and Dom discuss how to keep Gable's babyface reaction red hot and avoid wasting one of the most unexpectedly successful stories of the year.• If the Knicks Win the NBA Title... Does Danhausen Get a Ring?Let's review the facts:Danhausen "un-cursed" the Knicks.The Knicks are suddenly on the verge of their first championship in more than 50 years.Coincidence? Maybe.But if New York actually finishes the job... should Danhausen receive an honorary championship ring?Ryan and Dom tackle the important issues.All that and more on Episode 69 of Wrasslin' Wroundtable — where wrestling, basketball superstition, and conspiracy theories somehow collide.📲 Stay ConnectedFollow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you.👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH

The moment landed.But the follow-up is everything. Ryan and Dom talk about what WWE needs to do now to keep the momentum alive — because Rumble victories don’t age well if they’re left unattended.• Stephanie Vaquer vs. Raquel Rodriguez: Great Match, Questionable OutcomeThe match was excellent. No debate there.But the result raised eyebrows. The Wroundtable discusses why Stephanie going over feels premature, and whether this is long-term vision or short-term confusion.• AJ Styles vs. Gunther: Where Do We Go From Here?After a physical, high-stakes match, the focus shifts to what’s next.What’s the path forward for The Phenomenal One? And how does The Ring General evolve without losing his aura?• The Men’s Royal Rumble: Opinions Were FormedSome moments hit hard. Others… didn’t.Ryan and Dom give a measured reaction — not hot takes, not overreactions, just honest analysis.• Roman Reigns & CM Punk: Professional Wrestling, ActuallyThat promo was money. Two masters, no filler.The Wroundtable explains why it worked and why it reminded everyone what elite storytelling sounds like.• The IWC and New Talent: Take a BreathNot every new star needs to be crowned or condemned in real time.Ryan and Dom speak directly to the IWC — especially around the presentation of new talent like Oba Femi — and ask for something radical: patience. Let people grow. Let stories develop.

The crew reads the tea leaves and tries not to get their hopes up.• What’s Next for AJ Styles?AJ’s future feels uncertain, and WWE doesn’t love uncertainty unless it’s intentional. Ryan, Dom, and Brandi discuss what the next chapter could look like — and whether we’re watching the beginning of an ending, or just another reinvention.• Royal Rumble Picks (Receipts Will Be Kept)It’s prediction season.Winners, dark horses, surprise returns, and at least one take that will age terribly by Saturday night.

And how has this faction survived longer than some actual marriages?All that and more on Episode 50 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — a milestone episode powered entirely by caffeine, frustration, and wrestling optimism that refuses to die.👉 Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify👉 Follow us on Facebook — once we hit 100 followers, we’re giving away a T-shirt signed by the Hardcore Icon himself.Show Notes📲 Follow & Support

Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are gearing up for the Royal Rumble — but let’s be honest… this episode mostly turns into Dom absolutely losing his mind about Judgment Day. Repeatedly. With passion. And logic.Show Notes• Finn Bálor: The Prince Is Back?Finn didn’t walk away with the title against CM Punk — but he did walk out looking like the Finn of old. Classic music. Classic presentation. Actual aura.Ryan and Dom break down whether this signals Finn finally breaking free from Judgment Day and reclaiming his rightful spot as a main event player.• Judgment Day: What Is the Actual Point Anymore?Dom’s meltdown was fully warranted.Has Judgment Day really been around since 2022?! And if so… what are they even doing anymore? The Wroundtable dives into why the faction feels creatively exhausted, directionless, and overdue for either a massive shakeup or a merciful ending.• Can Randy Orton Secure a Title Shot at SNME?The Viper is lurking.Ryan and Dom debate whether Randy is positioned for one more major title run and what a championship program at this stage of his career would mean.• Royal Rumble Stakes: AJ Styles vs. Gunther — Career on the LineAJ’s career hangs in the balance against one of the most dominant forces in wrestling.Is this truly the end of the line for The Phenomenal One, or does WWE have one last chapter left to write?• And Yes… Dom Is Still Losing His Mind About Judgment DayBecause some things simply cannot be processed calmly.👉 Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify👉 Follow us on Facebook — once we hit 100 followers, we’re giving away a T-shirt signed by the Hardcore Icon himself.Follow & Support

Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue are back to break down a week of wrestling that raised titles, escalated grudges, and crossed a few lines that didn’t need crossing.Show Notes• Drew McIntyre: Universal Champion… But On Borrowed Time?Drew McIntyre is back on top, but the reign already feels like it came with an asterisk.Ryan and Dom debate whether this is a true vote of confidence or a strategically timed reign meant to set up someone else. Is Drew the destination — or just the obstacle? And if this is short-term, does it undercut what should be a dominant champion moment?• Jacob Fatu: Payback or Power Move?Jacob Fatu’s interference wasn’t subtle — and it definitely wasn’t random.Is this about settling a score with Drew, or is Fatu operating on a completely different tier, using chaos as a message? The Wroundtable unpacks motive, escalation, and what this could mean for the main event picture.• Darby Allin — And AEW’s Risk ProblemThis isn’t just about Darby.That suplex onto the ring steps was brutal, unnecessary, and emblematic of a larger issue in AEW — where extreme risks regularly happen on standard TV with little payoff beyond shock value. Ryan and Dom ask why these moments keep happening, who benefits from them, and whether AEW needs clearer guardrails before someone pays a permanent price.All that and more on an episode that asks tough questions — because someone has to.👉 Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify👉 Follow us on Facebook — once we hit 100 followers, we’re giving away a T-shirt signed by the Hardcore Icon himself.📲 Follow & Support

Ryan and Dom break down why this team works, why it matters, and how it could raise the ceiling for the entire women’s roster.• Becky Lynch as Women’s IC Champion… Why, Though?No disrespect to Becky — but the booking raises real questions.Does this elevate the title, or does it block momentum for the division’s next wave? The Wroundtable debates what WWE is trying to accomplish and who could benefit more from that spotlight.• Bron Breakker: Can He Get His Heat Back?After losing his title shot against CM Punk, Bron’s aura took a hit.Ryan and Dom discuss whether this is a temporary detour or a dangerous stall, and what WWE needs to do now to keep Breakker feeling like the future.• The Royal Rumble Is Somehow Weeks AwayTime is fake, the calendar is lying, and suddenly it’s almost Rumble season.

Show Notes • Stephanie Vacquer vs. Nikki Bella: Who Is This For? Seriously… what’s the point? What bump does this actually give Stephanie?

Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue return for another week of wrestling talk, hot takes, and mild exasperation at WWE’s booking philosophy. Show Notes • John Cena Wins the IC Title (AKA: Ryandamus called it.) Dirty Dom drops the strap, Cena picks it up, and Ryan gets to do his victory lap because he’s been predicting this for months. Was it surprising? No. Was it entertaining? Absolutely! But what does it mean for Survivor Series and Cena’s so-called “final match”? The crew breaks it down. • Survivor Series: The Most Confusing Premium Live Event on Earth™ WWE won’t tell us the card. Won’t tell us the stakes. Won’t tell us the themes. Won’t tell us anything. Ryan and Dom discuss why this ambiguity is dangerous—and why fans shouldn’t need a decoder ring to understand the build. • LA Knight & Jey Uso: The Buddy Cop Duo We Didn’t Expect Are they teaming? Feuding? Accidentally in the same frame too often? Is one of them turning heel? Is this all a fever dream? The Wroundtable tries to make sense of it all. • “All We Want Is Storytelling That Makes Sense.” Ryan and Dom ask the eternal question: is basic narrative coherence really too much to ask for? WWE says: Maybe!
