Music of the Mat Remix: Hate and Heat Dec 10, 2024

Show notes

Pro wrestling thrives on hatred. Two people wanting to beat each other up is the lifeblood of this crazy sport, and there doesn't seem to be enough of it nowadays. There is still plenty of hate and heat in the world of music, however. Nowhere is that more evident than with the diss track. On this episode, Andrew and first-time guest Rich Latta (One Nation Radio) play some of music's best and most brutal diss tracks, with musicians taking aim at other musicians, critics, former lovers, and other unfortunate targets. Artists played include Kendrick Lamar, Carly Simon, Megan Thee Stallion, Sonic Youth, Queen, Nine Inch Nails, Pusha T, LL Cool J, John Lennon, and many more. Leave the melodrama and the cinema at home, because this episode is bringing the heat!

The Good, The Bad & The Hungee: The Bad Times are Here Dec 07, 2024

Show notes

Tyler & Fred have a come to Jesus discussion. AEW's TV ratings have hit meaningful lows that are fair to classify as "dramatic" or, at least, "concerning." Fred & Tyler talk about how they got here and how the road to recovery is not going to be easy. Plus a catch up on the news, and Fred's brief thoughts on C2 matches thrown in.

If you're an AEW homer and don't like to listen to negative things about the company, this ain't the one for you. If you're a realist, this is hopefully a good convo. It's good, actually, to be critical of media you enjoy.

Either way, we start with about ten minutes on the college football playoff.

Please like, share, and subscribe. It'll be okay.

Mike & JD Show Ep. 86: AEW vs CM Punk Story Won’t Die, TNA Going Big in 2025, Featuring BQ Dec 06, 2024

Show notes

In Episode 86 of the Mike & JD Show, Mike is joined by special guest BQ of the IMPACT Lounge (youtube.com/@negativebq) to break down the latest bombshells in pro wrestling:

• AEW vs. CM Punk Saga Continues: We examine new allegations by former AEW star Ryan Nemeth, who filed a complaint detailing harassment, threats, and management failures linked to CM Punk’s time in AEW. Hear Nemeth’s alleged timeline of harassment, backstage politicking, legal entanglements, and how AEW executives reportedly handled—or mishandled—the situation.

• TNA Going Big in 2025: After months of speculation, TNA has announced major pay-per-view events in both Los Angeles and New York City next year. Rebellion heads to the Galen Center at USC in April, and Slammiversary arrives at the UBS Arena in July. We discuss the significance of TNA’s coast-to-coast expansion, ticket sales strategies, meet & greets, and the exclusive Titanium Ticket Package perks that could redefine the fan experience.

• Impact of Controversies & Future Directions: As AEW and TNA make bold moves, what does this mean for their long-term storytelling and roster management? Will AEW address internal conflicts more transparently? Can TNA maintain momentum with marquee events and top-tier talent?

Join us as we delve into the persistent AEW vs. CM Punk narrative, TNA’s ambitious 2025 plans, and everything in between, offering insights, opinions, and predictions for wrestling’s ever-evolving landscape.
