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.

This week, your favorite Nerds spend a lot of time talking about Marvel and the big things happening with the MCU in 2025 and beyond. We begin with a quick visit to the Trailer Park to look at the final trailer for Captain America: Brave New World and the first official trailer for Daredevil: Born Again. In News Around the Nerdosphere, the Russo Brothers gave us some insight as to why they decided to come back for two more Avengers movies, and some rather interesting details about Vision Quest have emerged. All that plus the official announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2, a couple of video game announcements that the guys are excited about, Invincible releases its schedule for Season 3, and we pay our respects to Bob Uecker and David Lynch.
