This is the ultimate fantasy booking game. The goal is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – not necessarily to predict what WWE will do. That means we must play by the rules of our current reality. Everyone comes in their current (physical, emotional, psychological, etc.) state. Bottom line, if Vince McMahon can do it, we can do it.
We’re entering Round 2 of Mayhem Mania. So, we can finally say that Mayhem Mania is in full swing, right? Is it too soon? Who cares. I’m debating myself. (more…)
Wrestling Mayhem Show 606: Darkwing Spud
It’s the second week of Mayhem Mania! Just for the occasion, we’ve got a direct connection to Yinza the Pittsburgh Luchador with Dave Fedor joining us in studio. Of course we’ve got our usual crew of Sorg, Matt, Larry, Mad Mike, and Rizz talking this week in wrestling, including:
So, Coach is back, and apparently Booker T isn’t happy about it.
#SadTozawa
205 Live going back to a Cruiserweight Classic model? We’re digging it.
Will we be seeing a Neville return?
We’re tracing down the name history of Drake Mallard. Let’s just say Darkwing Spud is our new favorite thing.
WWE’s new cutest couple? Braun Strowman and Alexa Bliss! #MotherOfStrowmans
We’re breaking down the comparison between scripted content and off-the-cuff reality content with WWE.
Elias swings the crowd almost as well as Vince McMahon. #LikeableHeel
It’s time for this week’s MayhemMania!

Wrestling Mayhem Show 597: Paul Heyman is an Evil Genius
He’s no Paul Heyman, but we can afford his booking fees! That’s right, Church makes the drive to the new studio to join us on the big purple couch. He joins Larry, Chad, and Sorg to talk this week in wrestling, including:
Larry is ready to jump right in with some War Games discussion!
So wait – NO ROOF for War Games?
Larry was impressed with Velveteen Dream during War Games.
Of course Sorg is talking about the video implications involved with War Games.
As crazy as War Games is – remember that Arn Anderson has been involved in 18 of them.
Wondering what we’re talking about? WWE has a War Games section on the WWE Network.
Check out some of the NXT talent you’re seeing on WWE – quite a few of them have some great content on the Indy Wrestling scene.
We enjoy watching Booker T because it reminds us of Drunk Uncle Booker.
We’re talking some Survivor Series!
Survivor Series became Bragging Rights.
Shield v New Day match made us feel pretty good.
Shinsuke having a chance to lock up with HHH was pretty awesome.
We got some opportunities to see some great matches that we normally haven’t seen at Survivor Series.
Paul Heyman is an Evil Genius.
Has the UK Championship become the new European Title?
This week’s Big Question is in the spirit of Thanksgiving. What are you thankful for in wrestling?
There’s been a bit of an invasion happening with NXT talent showing up on RAW and Smackdown. We’re sharing some thoughts.

Mayhem Mania 2017: Round 8
This. is. Mayhem Mania!
Not quite a game. Not really a contest. More like a competitive thought experiment. The object is to create the best WrestleMania card possible – NOT necessarily to predict what WWE will do.
This is not fantasy booking (even though it kind of is). Any match created must be possible in real life. That means all wrestlers come in their current physical, emotional and contractual state. Anyone selected for a match must have a reasonable chance of being hired by WWE to appear on the real-life WrestleMania card. Simply put, you’re Vince McMahon with infinite cash and no self-control.(more…)
