Wrestling Mayhem Show 623: Midweek Infinity War

This week’s episode brought to you by Slice on Broadway, Occupy Pro Wrestling, and Indy Wrestling US!
Todd DeFazio of Idiot Radio returns to the show this week. He is joined by Mad Mike, Mainstream Matt, Larry, and Sorg, as they’re on the heels of Money in the Bank. This week’s topics include:

Reading Rainbow meets Wrestling with Nino Wrestles the World.
Sorg may be cashing in MITB on Idiot Radio’s belt.
NXT Takeover was this past weekend – a/k/a I’m sorry Sunday night show.
Matt likes NXT because it has a happy ending.
It was nice to see Daniel Eads make a cameo appearance (and get his butt kicked a little) on NXT Takeover.
NXT is like the Bachelor / Bachelorette party to the WWE marriage.
Big Cass and WWE are going their separate ways?
James Ellsworth returned – the highlight of MITB!
So….Rhonda Rousey, guys.
WWE is the equivalent of wrestling Walmart.
How do you know if you’re in an abusive relationship with wrestling? Asking for a friend.
When it Reigns it bores! (Thanks for that one Idiot Radio!)
Sorg is thinking that this year’s MITB (men’s match) was solid. It pretty much had everyone expected to be in it, and it wasn’t obvious who was going to win it.
Sorg is pitching Rhonda Rousey as the Andre the Giant of the current women’s division.
In a time long, long away – in a galaxy far, far away, the UK Tournament is happening in some capacity.
Also – We’re getting a NXT UK! Woooo!
The New Day took on The Elite for a Street Fighter battle at E3. It was as amazing as we could have ever hoped!
If anything happens to Xavier Woods in WWE, he’s got a solid background to be a videogamer.
Sorg just did some math. There is 14 hours of new wrestling content – in the US – each week.
To clarify, we’re talking Bubba the Bulldog, not Bubba the Love Sponge as an inspiration for Todd.
This week’s Big Question: Along the lines of F***/Marry/Kill – If you could hire someone to WWE, fire someone from WWE, and return a WWE alum, who would your picks be?
Rusev Day happened to fall on Rey Mysterio Day!
We saw the obituary for El Jefe, and we’re talking some Lucha Underground observations.
In Lucha Underground we trust!
What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?
Billed from the back of the Hot Topic, it’s Aleister Black.
When you realize of the Enzo / Cass/ Carmella trio that Carmella is the one who’s left behind – with Gold. *Mind Blown*

Remember that poster we were giving away? We took our list of Patreon supporters, booted up WWE 2K16, and let the bots settle it out. Congratulations to Bradley for winning the Skyscraper poster! Want to catch the Patreon bot fight we used to determine the winner? See it here.

Podcasters and interviewers alike have been in the crosshairs awaiting the turnout of the Colt Cabana and CM Punk trial.
Podcasts, in general, are entertainment – when someone frames it as fact-checked journalism, it can cause harm.
A wrestling journalist having to switch gears to trial coverage?
Covering New Japan is what prepared Ross for the Colt Cabana and CM Punk trial coverage.
Ross covers New Japan, which brings us to Larry CANCELLING his WWE Network app!
New Japan has been doing a bit lately – including some title changes and some reach to American and European audiences.
Money in the Bank is just around the corner – as in THIS WEEKEND. We’re sharing some thoughts and speculations.
AJ Styles v Nakamura for Money in the Bank? WWE is doing the same stuff we’d be seeing in New Japan!
Has anyone checked to see if Brock Lesnar is still alive? We haven’t seen him in a couple months.
We’re making some Money in the Bank predictions.
The sons of IRS are facing each other, and we’re pretty excited about it.
This week’s big question: If you had the ability to give a Money in the Bank briefcase to ANYONE in wrestling, who would it be?
NXT Takeover is ALSO this weekend. We’re sharing some thoughts and predictions.
OH: Lars Sullivan is great! I want to see him win the title at a house show!
Lars Sullivan is what Snitsky should have been.
