WWE Summerslam’s pull has always been strong, but other wrestling companies are pulling stronger right now

Follow @TheDocLOP

This week, The Doc begins with a statement regarding his desire to give WWE a chance to win him back, but acknowledges the pull of other promotions.

As evidenced by this decade – two books, a thousand columns, and several hundred podcasts mostly about WWE – his desire is to see WWE thrive. That said, there is a lot of great pro wrestling right now, making it hard to voluntarily go back to a WWE that is not thriving. A particular match from New Japan Pro Wrestling that he talks about today, for instance, continues to pull his attentions abroad, its influence considerable to his current fandom. Said match changed what he thought pro wrestling look like at a main-event level.

Also, Impact Wrestling’s Slammiversary (which gets its justifiable review on the podcast this week) unlocked three free months of TNA/Impact history for Doc to explore. He praises Impact’s recently re-acquired skill of being distinct, and admits that its success only further pulls him away from the promotion he’s called his favorite for 30 years.

It is an interesting time to be a wrestling. Perhaps you can relate? Listen and respond at your leisure…

On this week’s edition of Hockey Talk, the guys take a look at the first round of the 2024 NHL Playoffs. The best teams and highest seeds flexed their muscle during the opening round of the playoffs. Out East, it was Chalk City as the Rangers, Hurricanes, Bruins, and Panthers took firm control of their respective series. The West, on the other hand, was far less certain as most of those series were shaping up to be tough, hard-fought, battles to the very end. Which teams impressed the guys the most and which likely second round series are they most excited about? Tune in and find out!
