It’s the return of Dimitry Pompée from the “Eurovangelists” podcast. He’s got an especially busy season supporting not one but TWO intense fandoms: Eurovision and wrestling.

The Main Event: WrestleMania 13

And in the spirit of the Drive and the heavy 90s theme, let's talk about a 90s wrestlemania. It's WrestleMania 13! A show with a very middling to bad card, but one match that has absolutely stood the test of time as an all time classic.

Hosted by Lindsey Kelk, Danielle Radford, and Hal Lublin

Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.

Saturday Night’s Main Event + The Rock’s Entrance Music 50:18

4 hours ago50:18

50:18

Saturday Night’s Main Event was the start of an incredibly busy wrestling Summer. There wasn’t much in terms of titles exchanging hands, but we did see the return of Bronson Reed for Seth Rollins’ unnamed stable. Plus Cody Rhodes is back! And he set up a Money in the Bank match with him and Jey Uso vs. John Cena and Logan Paul. Rerun: The Rock’s Entrance Music In 2017, we broke down all of The Rock’s entrance music over the course of his career so far; everything from Rocky Maiavia to his final time as WWE champion. We replay this segment and also add in our thoughts on the new Final Boss music. The Three Count: Julian put over Nattie’s birthday party . Danielle put over Bardcore wrestling . Lindsey put over Rhea in Stephanie’s places . Hosted by Lindsey Kelk , Danielle Radford , and Julian Burrell Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.

The Art of Entrance Music ft. Open Mike Eagle 52:21

52:21

Our beloved Open Mike Eagle rejoins the Tights and Fights family! Of course Mike’s still busy watching a lot of wrestling. And because of that, he’s noticed a number of shortcomings in WWE, specifically in the main event scene. He’ll explain. Plus, he’ll tell us more about what he thinks is missing from the John Cena heel turn and why he’s so optimistic about Seth Rollins and Paul Heyman’s connection. The Main Event: Theme Songs It seems like people are more dissatisfied with wrestling entrance music than they have been in years. We’ll explore why that is and listen to some of our favorite tracks of all time. The Three Count: Mike put over the art of selling . Danielle put over the Joe Hendry bit . Lindsey put over CM Punk getting sung to the ring . Hal put over Hamilton x Wrestling!

WWE Backlash 2025 38:51

14 days ago38:51

38:51

Backlash is often regarded as the come-down show for WWE. There’s plenty to criticize; why is Gunther taking on Pat McAfee on his road back to the World Heavyweight Championship picture? And why is WWE intent on protecting Pat McAfee as an in-ring performer? Let’s not let that completely distract from the fun moments: Danielle gets to squee about Jeff Cobb fka Monster Matanza in her dearly departed Lucha Underground. And despite us being a little pessimistic going into it, John Cena vs. Randy Orton delivered a solid enough match for Randy’s hometown crowd to get behind. Plus, raise a glass to the RAW women’s division! The Three Count: Danielle put over RIP Sabu and his FUs . Julian put over Michin's suspect challenge . Hal put over a celebration of love . Hosted by Julian Burrell , Danielle Radford , and Hal Lublin Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.

Seth Freakin’ Rollins as the Top Guy 54:16

21 days ago54:16

54:16

Backlash weekend is upon us! Five matches doesn’t inherently make for a light card, but there it is a problem when one of those matches features Pat McAfee. Between that, the women’s tag title scene and maybe a few other things, there’s reason for pessimism in WWE. But there’s also a lot to enjoy– just take a look at Chelsea Green who hasn’t let her title loss diminish her character in any way. Hopefully that continues! The Main Event: Seth Rollins as a Paul Heyman guy. Seth Rollins is one of the longest tenured stars in WWE. And after years of playing second fiddle to the likes of Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, he's got Bronn Breakker and Paul Heyman at his back to make him into the top guy. The Three Count: Danielle put over Dom-Dom hyping up the children . Julian put over Seth Rollins at the Met Gala . Hal put over Becky having jokes . Hosted by Julian Burrell , Danielle Radford , and Hal Lublin Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.

We’ve barely had time to breathe after WrestleMania but on we go to Backlash. There haven’t been many matches announced, but things look really solid so far: Becky Lynch will go after Lyra Valkyria’s Intercontinental Title and Drew McIntyre and LA Knight will go after Jacob Fatu’s U.S. Title. And speaking of the U.S. Title— let’s mourn Chelsea Green’s championship run and hope that Zelina Vega can effectively pick up the baton. The Main Event: A primer on wrestling This conversation will be all about introducing newcomers to the world of pro wrestling– all the basic questions that you've ever been afraid to ask will be covered here so that you can mark out with the rest of us the next time wrestling's on TV. For further lessons, check out episode 269 . The Three Count: Danielle put over Dom-Dom being Dom-Dom . Lindsey put over Cody Rhodes fighting for his life . Hal put over Dom-Dom being Dom-Dom x2 .

WrestleMania 41 55:38

5 weeks ago55:38

55:38

The biggest weekend in wrestling has come and gone; and all anyone wants to talk about is how disappointed they were by that main event between Cody Rhodes and John Cena. And sure there’s disappointment between that, The Rock’s absence, and the Travis Scott of it all, there still was a lot of good too. New champions were crowned and we even had a really strong Monday Night RAW that could mean this slog we went through is only temporary. The Three Count: Danielle put over Steiner Math Lindsey put over Nina Marie living the dream . Hal put over Karrion Kross .

It’s the biggest weekend in wrestling at last! And while we’d love to express our full joy at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas, there’s no doubt that this build feels… a little weaker than the last few years. Maybe that’s due to the fact that the show is later on the calendar than usual; maybe it’s because WWE is focused on stars we’re less invested in. In any case, it will be a big show that will draw a lot of attention and will, hopefully, over deliver. The Three Count: Danielle put over the Great-EST mash up Lindsey put over wrestling treats Hal put over Becoming a Spectacle .
