A preview of the biggest week in professional wrestling’s modern history, and plea to all promotions to make us want to pick sides

Follow @TheDocLOP

This week, The Doc is excited about the upcoming steps forward for promotions like AEW, NXT, NWA, Impact, and WWE. However, he takes issue with the idea that it’s not a competition and that we shouldn’t, as wrestling fans, be encouraged to choose.

Doc appreciates the sentiments put forth by the likes of CM Punk and others suggesting that diehard fans should just watch everything. Is that realistic, though? It certainly is not realistic for Doc, or for many of you. There are other things to spend time on extracurricularly besides wrestling – other escapes – right? That is on top of real life stuff, of course.

Frankly, Doc feels as though WWE, AEW, and others should be actively vying to win our full attention. If AEW succeeds, for instance, in capturing our imaginations this coming Wednesday, hooking us for the ensuing series of Wednesdays, then do they not deserve priority in our wrestling viewing habits? The competition at hand is for our attention. That’s a beautiful thing, such a competition existing in 2019; let’s embrace it and push for it rather than against it because it will make each promotion better.

So, expect a preview of the coming week on the show today, and for that preview to set the stage for the ensuing competition at hand.

4 Corners Podcast: Chalk & Chase

This week we talk a little MLB, discuss the red-hot Blues, the GR8 Chase, and whether a chalky NCAA Tournament is a bad thing.

This week on the 4 Corners Podcast, we talk a little bit about the opening week of the MLB and ponder just how good the Dodgers and Yankees will be this year. We then return to discussing hockey as Patrick’s Blues have suddenly become the hottest team in the NHL. Meanwhile, the GR8 Chase nears its conclusion as Alex Ovechkin has nearly reached the summit of the mountain that is the NHL All-Time goals record. The guys then discuss the NCAA Tournament. After a few upsets in the earlier rounds, things have been very chalk since then, with all four #1 seeds making it to the Final Four. Is that a bad thing? The answer might surprise you. All this and more, TUNE IN!

This week’s hosts… Patrick O’Dowd @wrestlngrealist and Dave Ungar @AttitudeAgg

Bandwagon Nerds #282: Daddy Ganon & A Glass of Wine

A double dose of Daredevil, major Zelda news, a massive Avengers: Doomsday reveal, and Villain Madness Round of 32 matchups highlight a huge week!

This week, the NERDS give you a double dose of Daredevil: Born Again. Disney caught most of us by surprise as it dropped two very different but very good Episodes of Daredevil: Born Again. The guys break it all down for you as Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk both cross the line and revert into Daredevil and The Kingpin. Where will things go from here? Nintendo made a massive splash as it announced the long-rumored Legend of Zelda live-action movie will be released in 2027, leading the NERDS to speculate about who will be cast in the key roles. Speaking of casting, the MCU had an epic reveal of an enormous number of people and characters that will appear in Avengers: Doomsday. Which names surprised us, and which names were we surprised to see left off the roster (so far)? Villain Madness continues with Round of 32 matchups in the Cosmic and Criminally Insane regions, and all we can say is one region saw some major upsets. All that and of course Whatcha Watchin”?
